My Beloved, My Guru

My Beloved, My Guru 

I met you embarking on my spiritual journey,

The life turning point arrived in my voyage

The light of God shun in my life 

Through your divine presence,

The jewels of wisdom which you pour on me

Has made my soul shine in love and bliss,

Your wise insights is the highest earthly gift to me

Purifying my soul like the water from the Holy Ganges,

The old vicious world in my consciousness

Has transformed into a purer enlightened world,

It feels as if, I float high in the clouds

Watching the earthly drama as a Witness,

You are the dearest to me 

In this Step world

You are Grace in form for me

My Guru, the captain of my ship

Taking me to another shore

Crossing these waves of Samsara

My Beloved, My Guru!!

They may feel that their wants and needs are unimportant, so they alter their personalities in order to make others happy. Often, we engage in people pleasing unconsciously or witness people around us doing that, but we often fail to comprehend the underlying causes of this tendency. Let’s analyze and understand the reasons behind it, and give it some contemplation. Some common factors behind it are:     • Low self- esteem     • A childhood trauma     • Avoidance of conflict      • Low self esteem:  People who have low self-esteem are dependent on the external validation, and approval of others to feel confident. They feel good, when others shower them with compliments. They unconsciously base their esteem on outer appreciation, and seek reinforcement of value from others. They also feel they are less worthy and deserve less in comparison ...
