Be Natural, No Reason to Be Embarrassed – 07 Jan 10

You are currently viewing Be Natural, No Reason to Be Embarrassed – 07 Jan 10

Yesterday I was talking about embarrassing situations and Ramona asked me what the most embarrassing situation in my life was. Today again she asked and she asked also Yashendu and Purnendu but none of us could find any such situation. We just don’t feel embarrassed in some situations that others feel embarrassed in.

I believe that it is easier to live in this way. You know, if you can just accept that you are a normal human, not perfect, just as everyone else, there is no reason to be embarrassed. I anyway think that you shouldn’t be embarrassed for the natural noises of your body, it just doesn’t make sense, you cannot control your nature. And also if you do any action, why do you feel embarrassed? It happens mostly because you want to be in a certain way, we want to look good, want to impress others and have a certain image in mind how we want to look like. Be natural and self-confident. Again it is about the wish to be perfect or the confidence to be who you are.

    Swami Balendu is 50 lifetimes ahead of the average male! Behold the soul, incecedentally presented in a male body. (Through deliberate effort, He sees without fabricated conditioning.) Thank You dear Swami Balendu, for being the lighthhouse to which us ordinaries refer for our navigation, to make sailing our lives safe! Love TD

    for all reasons not entirely known to me…in this life cycle..I am a fool, coward and selfish creature…yet I abound in Grace, Love and Comfort….I am not fully aware of my potential….yet I push forward…if this is Karma-Law, then may it be done…but, I realize that I am upheld by something Pure and Beautiful….that will hold on to me……. See Moreeven if I feel that I must hide and be ashamed….for I know that I am not the end-all existence itself, but merely a molecule in the Grand Design….or am I something greater like the ONE Himself?

    I actually find such things incredibly funny! Some of the best humor involves bodily functions!

    I think it’s normal to feel embarrassed about silly things as long as you don’t take it too seriously. It’s fun to laugh at yourself when you do or say something stupid…but it’s not worth feeling ashamed and mortified about it. It’s healthy to laugh at yourself and accept that you are just a human who makes mistakes. But it shouldn’t bring you down and make you feel bad about yourself.
