Q.
What is my athma, destiny and destination?
Destiny is knowing what the athma is. Experiences in life
are part of the process of making one understand the immortal
nature of the soul. Once this is understood, all matters related
to the body become immaterial to us. It is possible to rise beyond
the fetters of the physical being; but that happens only when
your vasanas are fulfilled. Only then can you comprehend the spirit.
The body is just a container and it is not relevant in the sadhana
path.
And destination: We are our destination. Self realization
is the process of knowing that The Destination we seek outside
is in reality within us. Just like searching for Meenakshi Temple
standing right in front of that temple. We are a mobile housing
the SIM(short for simple) card called God. And we search for Him
everywhere outside.
We have the destination within us. We do not know the direction,
hence the frustrations in life.
