OPE

You know what OPE is right?

Anyway, do you remember that person that sat near you at the last program? You don't know him well, but one thing you know for sure: man, he had a big ego!

He had to correct your way of making a bandhan! Can you believe it? After 15 years of dedicated, continuous years of meditation. After so many books read, hundreds of puja attended, thousands of talked listened! He had to tell you that the number of nodes to tie for raising the kundalini are 1-1-3 and not 1-2-3 as you were doing. What a big ego!
Then he kept his eyes closed longer than you, pretending to meditate longer. Like you need to keep them closed to meditate! No way. This is just for beginners. For advanced yogis like you, one can meditate with eyes opened, while walking, while talking, while reading, even while watching a show on TV. That is the reason you skip some meditations now and then. Who needs five minutes of meditation when you constantly meditate. This is just for beginners.

But this was nothing compared to the lady leading the Self realization at the beginners program. Man, she had to go through each chakra like in the old times. That was so yesterday type of program. You know that keeping your hand on just a few chakras works. You tried it yourself. On both people you gave Self realization last year it worked perfectly. Of course, you never saw them again after, but so are the times these days. People are not so profound as you were when started the meditation. What can you do?

But anyway, you know better. So you did not need to follow all the steps during Self realization experiment. You just felt on you fingers the catches in the room and you worked on them. That is you job. You feel heat on you fingers, know for sure that they are catches from others and you work to fix them. If only people were more balanced. You would not have so many catches.

And recently you did feel a lot of burning in the ring finger of the right hand. You are right to wonder what is wrong with people's ego. Day after day their ego is bigger and some of them after so many years of meditating. You always had this gift of seeing OPE. You know what that is right? Other People's Ego. You are the master of seeing it. This is like a gift. People without ego, can always see right away OPE. It is a gift that not many have it. And you are one of the few.

Coming back to the guy next you. You saw it from the start. From the way he took out his jacket. Slowly, slowly. Like he was a big yogi or something. Like he was thinking of something important or maybe meditating already. And then he closed his eyes. Even before the program started. Ha! Like you don't know that he was listening to what you were talking to yogis around you. You know this trick, you did it so many times before. You invented this trick, long time ago.

And then when the meditation ended, he checked vibrations above the head. Five times, I am no kidding! Like he was saying: 'oh, what coolness I can feel!'. Like you don't feel cool above the head! Of course, you do! And if there was not for the people with catches around you, for sure you would do it at every program, not only at international pujas.

And then you had to watch the long talk. Over 45 minutes, can you believe it? 45 minutes. People organizing programs should be wiser. Who has time these days for such long talks? They were good for old times, at the beginning. Now things are moving faster. At most you need a short talk or even no talk at all. Yogis like you are at a different stage. Their only presence help Kundalini rise in people around you. That is the reason you just attend realization events and you are not getting involved. You being there is way more helpful then the presentation the lady gives in the front. And she started meditation only five years ago. She could benefit from your deep knowledge. Yes she could. If she just asked.

You tried to teach her once or twice, but she just smiled. And you know why. Because of her Ego, she could not accept you knew better. She still plays full talks even if you told her playing only a part of them will do. She still does the loooong version of Self realization experiment, even if you tought her a quick version. What a big ego she has!

Actually this is the case with lots of people around you. You can see their ego in a split of a second. If there were a competition on finding OPE, you will win for sure. Of course, this is just one of the many qualities you have. But one gets at that level only after years and years.
