The Little Child and the Monkey
Without being positive and laughing at situations, it’s very difficult to transcend to another level of understanding. This is why it is so very important to remember to be as free as the little child rather than have a serious reaction to the monkey. If the child begins to have fun with the monkey, can you imagine the chaos that is caused, as the little monkey turns the world upside down?
Then, the little child inside of you, or the little child that is there in your life, begins to play with the fear and the fear becomes your lesson, the karma becomes your wisdom, the pain becomes the reason why you can laugh and the suffering becomes the reason you can smile and have compassion.
Subsequently, as you continue with the practice and move deeper, from a space of freedom, something amazing happens. You are not magnetising the fear, or the negativity, or the limitation from all those other dimensions that you can’t see from the subconscious, from the multidimensional aspect of your experience. What you are doing instead is freeing yourself so that you can transcend and comprehend those dimensions from a space of freedom, from a space of joy and from a space of not being serious.
It’s so very easy to put into practice because it begins here with whatever your experience is and continues into infinity and this is why here, whatever your experience is today or throughout your manifestation is in this world, it is very crucial to remember that you are free and you have a choice in this moment.
As you breathe and celebrate that choice, and that freedom becomes clear to you, then that freedom allows for more joy. Joyously celebrate this freedom that you’re experiencing and joyously transmit this freedom to others, to parts of yourself and to the world. Then you are like a little Buddha, a little child Buddha, just giggling and happy.
Life is perfect. There is no imperfection in life. Any belief system that limits life to a perspective of imperfection is just the little Buddha forgetting to celebrate life from a child’s perspective.
May you today in your practice, remember to be like the little child, happy and free, and play with life and take it less seriously.
