Everybody is carrying boxes of negative emotions against others. There is one main box that is holding all these boxes. That one box is holding all these emotions, the things of the past, the things you are holding on to. Those things have become emotions, thoughts and memories. Until you let go of your past, what hope do you have for any decent present much less a rosy future?
Who is stopping you to let go? No one. Sri Krishna says to Arjuna that you are your own worst enemy and your own greatest friend. Nobody can teach you the art of how to live. It is something that you will have to learn yourself. If you have made the commitment of being happy, nothing can affect you. You cannot really change your past at all. There is absolutely no control anybody has over one’s past so how long are you going to hold on to it? Until you are angry, until you are holding on to stuff, holding on to your past, you can do all the chanting, bhajans or count the beads but you will not experience eternal peace.
Listen to this discourse by Om Swami on how letting go of your past and negative emotions can give you peace and happiness.
