When we do not recognize our form, we put a cover on our face. Actually, by wearing masks, we want to make our life easier, but through masks, we ourselves sow thorns in our path. Sometimes it feels like we are responsible for our own troubles. Some problems come automatically in our life but some problems we call ourselves. Most of the problems that come on their own go away after some time but the problems which we call them, they do not go away easily.
This is because we don’t want to change ourselves easily. After some time we come to know that masks are adding to our problems, yet we do not want to take off the masks. This is the reason that everything in society goes on under masks. Our interactions, interactions and behavior also take place between masks. In this way, our real nature is not able to be realized from each other in the society. When artificial forms interact with each other, an artificial world develops, in which there is no true connection with each other’s sorrows and happiness.
Today the kind of artificiality has come in the interpersonal relations of the society, due to which our behavior has changed a lot. We have become too selfish and mean. Some selfishness in life is present inside all of us. Without selfishness, the car of life does not even run. But if selfishness becomes the purpose of our life, then many problems come to the fore. It simply means that masks leave our lives to a selfishness in which only our own interests are visible. Masks create so much selfishness in our lives that we consider trying to fulfill selfishness as life. In this way, these coverings on our face develop a wrong understanding about life. We get focused on certain motives that lead us in the wrong direction.
In fact, a directionless life causes discord in the family and society. When we do not know our own direction, then we are not able to handle our relationships with integrity. The fidelity of the relationship is an afterthought. One must also have a true loyalty towards oneself in order to live life. Masks also undermine our loyalty to ourselves. This is the reason why we are not able to be honest with ourselves. That’s why masks teach to betray oneself. Such veils are dangerous because they teach to deceive themselves. As a result, the main purpose of our life becomes to cheat.
The question is, how to avoid masks? How can this desire arise in us that in any case we should not wear a mask? This desire can arise only when we try to keep our distinction clear. There is a need to cover our true nature only when some mischief starts in our mind. As soon as the food starts in the mind, we start thinking much ahead. We spoil our present by thinking too far ahead. It’s not wrong to think too far ahead.
The problem is that we don’t think very positively about what’s ahead. According to our thinking, it is positive but in real sense it is negative. We have to understand that a dirty mind cannot think positive. Therefore, by keeping the mind clean, we can get freedom from masks. By getting rid of the masks, we can also become fearless in the true sense. So first of all you need to know your nature.
