Do I Really Own Anything

Here I speak about our human tendency to own every single thing in this planet, and I explain how this unfolds. I also bring clarity on this subject by distinguishing what we own from what really stays and from who we are.

My name is Sangeet and today I have a message for you. We humans like to own things and we do. We own lands, Houses and clothes. We own money and food. We own jobs and positions. We own rights and power. We own cars and planes, Palaces and islands. We even own animals and people. We own trees and flowers and one of these days we may even own the entire sky and sell it for a good price. We all own something because this planet is full of things that can be owned and full of people that can own and yes we can own and keep owning and we can even grow what we own and make it better and bigger but nothing that we own can really be more than what it is and owning in this planet is just a temporary way to survive and to thrive while we are here. We don't bring and we don't take any of those things with us. It happens here and only here and this is why things stay and we go. On the other hand we are all made of an essence a nature that cannot be owned because it is not something that we have it is something that we are and we as an essence as a nature carry something that is priceless and for that we call wisdom. It is an invisible magical tool with an infinite power that surpasses anything that we own in this world. We can share wisdom we can even write it and sell it and we can read it in hope to have it but wisdom is not something that we just buy and own. Wisdom is that we integrate and embody as a result of something non-transferable which is everything that we experience. It happens out of deep awakening and understanding of life. It happens through the eyes that truly see and include capable of being kind and detached at the same time and yes we can share it we can even write it and sell it and for sure it will inspire it will push us forward through our willingness to evolve and to comprehend more but if it is only bought and read it will only be with us as a book that we carry or as a knowledge that we believe in not as part of us as a being that carries themselves as the only thing that is truly needed. We humans like to own things and we do we own them we own everything even however despite whatever we own still we carry its lack because abundance and lack go hand in hand. Have you ever come out of the supermarket full of bags and crossed paths with someone asking for food or have you ever asked for food and came across someone full of bags? Owning reminds us of lacking and lacking reminds us of owning because this planet where everything can be lacked and owned includes everything and once we are here we cannot escape it. Sometimes wisdom makes us cry because life on earth doesn't feel so cozy anymore but ultimately it makes us smile and love deeper because we understand that it all happens in a moment in which we have the chance to make a choice so we turn resentment into compassion and we create space in our hearts for the love that we feel for life for the universe for beauty in its simple form and for those beings that we truly love those who undoubtedly bring love into our lives and hopefully all this love will be strong enough to keep us going if one day we have to face their absence because as we know we don't really own anything. Love and wisdom nothing else is part of us or of who we are so today let's look within and bring our heart to the surface and allow it to always be bigger than whatever it is that we think we own nothing is ours anyway but love and wisdom stay
