Recently, during the middle of a session, I requested the participants, "Take a moment, close your eyes, and ask yourself 'What am I truly seeking?" "There was silence. I waited while they contemplated what they truly wanted. After some time, they opened their eyes. I was curious to hear what they would say.
"What I truly want is happiness," said somebody
"What I truly want is peace of mind," said another.
"What I truly want is a state of no mind," said someone else.
Then suddenly, someone asked me, "What are you seeking?" taking me by surprise.
I took a pause. Closed my eyes. Only one word came to mind.
"Home."
As I said that, I could sense each one could resonate with this single word, 'home.'
What is home?
A place where we belong. Feel secure. A place that nourishes us. Where we can be ourself. Express ourself freely. Feel loved.
Aren't we all looking for home?
Place
Home is a place. Living in the mountains close to nature is home for some. For others, home is a beach house facing the sea or a two-bedroomhall-kitchen in the city. Whatever it is, it is a space we come back to, to rejuvenate ourself.
A counsellor once asked me, "Does your room nourish you?" I was living with my grandparents at that time. My room had four clocks, three calendars, and paraphernalia that had outlived its usage. My grandparents felt that anything could be needed at any time. Things only came into the house; they never went.
I was fascinated by this question "Does your room nourish you?" It never occurred to me that a room is meant to nourish me. Until then, I thought a room is for living, not nourishment.
