Certainties of the Changing World

Uncertainty causes craving for stability. The most stable thing in the world is the Self. The world is of change and the Self is of non-change. You have to rely on the non-change and accept the change. If you are certain that everything is uncertain, then you are liberated. 

When you are uncertain in ignorance, then you became worried and tense. Uncertainty with awareness brings higher state of consciousness with a smile. Often people think that certainty is freedom. If you feel that freedom when you are not certain, then that is the real freedom. 

Often your certainty or uncertainty is based on the relative world. Being certain about the uncertainty of the relative makes you certain about the existence of the absolute and also brings a certain faith in the absolute. Only in knowledge can one be enthusiastic amidst uncertainty. 

Often people who are uncertain do not act; they simply sit and wait. Acting in uncertainty makes life a game, a challenge. Life is a combination of form and formless. Feelings have no form but their expression have form, The Self has no form but its abode has form. 

Similarly, wisdom and grace have no form but are expressed through form. Discarding the formless, you become inert, materialistic and paranoid. Discarding the form, you become a dreamer, a lost ascetic, or emotionally unbalanced. 

Also, events come and go, they perish like flowers. But every event and every person contains some honey. Like a bee, just take the honey out of every event and every moment and move on. Be like a busy bee and be in the being.
