The goal of the Elohim was to make us be, to make us feel, to make us smile. To be\u2026 to feel, that is to be alive. To be alive is to feel. We are human beings, not human \u201chaving.\u201d. This is the biggest problem of humanity: people forget to be human beings, they become human havings.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy house\u201d\u2026 having.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy girlfriend \u2026\u00a0\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMy religion\u2026\u201d
\n\u201cMy country\u2026\u201d
\n\u201cMy culture\u2026\u201d
\n\u201cMy body\u2026\u201d
\n\u201cMy, my, my\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Where is being? Where?<\/p>\n
It is fascinating: when people meet each other, they introduce themselves by talking about their job. You are not your job. They talk about their car. You are not your car. You are not your face. Who are you? No, that is not the right question. You cannot know who you are. To know who you are, you have to be.
\nIf you are not, you are not a doctor, you are not Japanese, you are not anything.<\/p>\n
First, you need to be.<\/p>\n
When you say \u201cI am,\u201d you may have the illusion that you are, but it is an illusion. Who is \u201cI am\u201d?
\nMy tongue? My head? Am I my head? No. Am I my hand? You can lose your hand. Some people lose arms in accidents; do they stop being? No. You can lose an arm or a leg, you still are. Who are you? That is not the question. Are you? That is the real question. \u201cWho\u201d is not important. Are you? What you are goes beyond any part of your body.<\/p>\n
What is it to be? That is the most beautiful question. And what is the answer?<\/p>\n
Each of you, if you are honest, has asked this question: \u201cWho am I? Am I this hand? These eyes?\u201d You can lose your eyes, you still are. Am I these legs? These nipples? Who are you? Are you? When really \u201cbeing\u201d is born, then you realize who you are. And who you are cannot be limited in time or space. Where are we? In time and space? Where are we? People usually answer: Okinawa, Japan, Asia, Earth\u2026 But the right answer is: infinity.<\/p>\n
Where is infinity? Is it here? Or there? In between? Where am I? Am I under my right foot? My left foot? Under my ass? No, that is not me. So, feeling whether you are or not, that is a necessary condition for happiness. And if you are lucky enough to find the answer, then happiness comes. There is a meditation I want to do with you now. Very powerful: I have never spoken about it before. Stand up. Very difficult huh?
\nPut your arms like this [self-hug]. What are you touching? Is that you?<\/p>\n
Next step: smile. Very difficult. Don\u2019t smile to someone else, smile to yourself. Feel it. Some people call it the \u201cSuperman position.\u201d You can do it; you should do it every morning as soon as you wake up. And smile, to nobody, in your bed. Or stand up, even better. And smile, smile and feel the effect. It is so simple. When you do that, many hormones flow in your brain.<\/p>\n
Do you feel it?<\/p>\n
You come to a meeting with Maitreya, and he just says: smile. It reminds me of a sentence from Buddha: \u201cIn the silence of a Buddha, there is more wisdom than in a thousand words of an ordinary man.\u201d You can go to a monastery and repeat mantras, nothing happens. Or you simply smile and immediately you are a Buddha. The smile of a Buddha is your smile, not the smile of the people in front of you. What happens when you smile? Feel it. Now, sit down.<\/p>\n
What was the goal of the Elohim when they gave me the Message? Very interesting question! Do they need to be recognized as our creators? That would be ego. \u201cHey, we created you!\u201d No, not at all. Their goal was to make us be, to make us feel, to make us smile. People often ask: \u201cWhat was your reaction when you saw the UFO?\u201d Smile. Just smile.<\/p>\n
People say, \u201cWow!\u201d We should be saying \u201cwow\u201d every second of our lives, for no reason. Just because we are alive. The goal of the Elohim in giving me the Message was to make you happy. You \u2013 You. And I think they succeeded. Your happiness is the best way to say \u201cThank you, Elohim.\u201d When you know the Message, when you know the truth, you cannot be depressed. You cannot be sad.<\/p>\n
Truth naturally makes you happy. And the smile is a silent \u201cthank you.\u201d Yes, you can say \u201cThank you, Elohim\u201d\u2026 but just a smile is enough. Give your smile to the Elohim. Give me your smile, not for my ego, but because I want to see your happiness. Maybe you won\u2019t smile. I cannot expect it. A Buddha has no expectations. It is your freedom to be sad. Your freedom to be negative. Your freedom to be depressed. Your choice. It is also your freedom to be happy.<\/p>\n
What do you choose?<\/p>\n
Every time you smile, it is your choice. Not because the Elohim ask you. Not because Maitreya asks you. You choose. You have the power to be happy. You have the power to feel the fantastic being that you are and to smile. And smile for no reason.<\/p>\n
That is the secret of happiness.<\/p>\n
If you smile because someone smiles at you, that is not happiness. It may be love, communication, but happiness is alone, in your bedroom, without a mirror. Because if you look at yourself smiling in the mirror, it is not happiness. Nothing, and happiness, and smiling.<\/p>\n
Next step: laughing. Laughing for no reason. That is real laughter. That is happiness. Smiling, laughing, looking into people\u2019s eyes without expressing anything, smiling to people you don\u2019t know without expecting a smile back. Expectation, that is ego. We smile to someone and expect a smile back that is not real happiness. The same in relationships, between partners. They say, \u201cI love you.\u201d Beautiful. But then they expect, \u201cme too.\u201d When you say \u201cI love you\u201d without expecting any \u201c me too\u201d in return that is real love.<\/p>\n
Sometimes people ask their partner, \u201cDo you love me?\u201d That is the funniest question. The best answer is: no. I remember when I was young, I had a partner who asked me every five minutes, \u201cDo you love me?\u201d She was so insecure. I told her I love her, of course 10 times, 20 times. Finally, I said, \u201cNo,\u201d because I cannot love someone who is constantly demanding it.<\/p>\n
Real happiness, the Buddha mind, is meeting someone in the street, someone not physically attractive, maybe an old man or an old woman, and saying, \u201cI love you.\u201d Their reaction is interesting: \u201cI don\u2019t know you, why do you love me?\u201d Why not? The answer is \u201cWhy not?\u201d It is my freedom to love you. And if you don\u2019t love me, that is not my problem. Then real love flows. Smiling, laughing, loving that is being. If you cannot smile, if you cannot laugh, if you cannot love, you are not. Not \u201cyou are not somebody\u201d, no. You are not.<\/p>\n
I love this expression in English: \u201cYou are somebody.\u201d Not just some body, you are. You are not a body, you are. And I hope that from now on, you will be constantly smiling, not because I ask you. You could also say, \u201cMaitreya asked me to smile, so I will not smile.\u201d I love that. I love your reaction, whatever it is. I do not need your smile.<\/p>\n
What do I need from you? Your happiness.<\/p>\n
You can express it with a smile, your choice. With laughter,\u00a0 your choice. You do it because you decide, not because the Elohim want you to smile, not because Maitreya wants you to be happy but because you choose. You are the guru of your life. A real guru, a real teacher, makes you your own guru. So please, if you want to make the Elohim happy: be. Just be. And it makes me happy too.<\/p>\n
I do not need you to be happy. I feel your love, but even if you stop loving me, my level of happiness will remain the same. Because, like you, I am my own guru. And I feel the same thing as you when I smile.<\/p>\n
Remember: do it every day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
