What Can We Learn From The Sun?

“Even a simple phenomenon when viewed with heightened awareness can unfold new schools of learning. Every moment, every encounter, every activity and every experience has within it an unspoken message. There is something even in nothing and there is everything in something. Moment after moment, live consciously. Hear the unheard, see the unseen, feel the unfelt… unravel the unspoken. Remember, you are an evolving consciousness.”

- Mahatria Ra

Love all Need none: The sun is a full-time giver. The sun is the ultimate source of energy. The sun is the ultimate source of light. The sun is a source-less source. Everything gains in its interaction with the sun. It receives from nothing and gives itself to everything. Its very presence makes possible a celestial game of planetary objects. In many sports like tennis, badminton and volleyball, the service begins with 'Love all'. Let's add to that - 'Love all; need none'. It isn't with a touch of arrogance… after all, nobody makes it alone. It is about committing to live a life such that you are all the time looking at being of use to the world, rather than using the world. It is about a life of giving, rather than receiving. The sun is constantly teaching us - “Go into any relationship looking at what you can give, and not at what you can receive.”
