Satsang Thought for the day

Life
Your Perfect Teacher
Many of us long to find a spiritual teacher or guru. We
may feel unsure of how to practice our spirituality without
one, or we may long for someone who has attained a
higher level of insight to lead the way for us. Some of us
have been looking for years to no avail and feel frustrated
and even lost.
The good news is that the greatest teacher you could
ever want is always with you-that is your life. The people
and situations we encounter every day have much to
teach us when we are open to receiving their wisdom.
Often we don't recognize our teachers because they
may not look or act like our idea of a guru, yet they
may embody great wisdom. In addition, some people
teach us by showing us what we don't want to do. All
the situations in our lives, from the insignificant to the
major, conspire to teach us exactly what we need to
be learning at any given time. Patience, compassion,
perseverance, honesty, letting go-all these are covered
in the classroom of the teacher that is your life.

We can help ourselves to remember this perfect
teacher each day with a few simple words. Each
morning we might find a moment to say, "I acknowledge
and honor the teacher that is my life. May I be wise
enough to recognize the teachers and lessons that I
encounter today, and may I be open to receiving their
wisdom." We might also take some time each day to
consider what our lives are trying to teach us at this
time. A difficult phase in your relationship with your
child may be teaching you to let go. The homeless
person you see every day may be showing you the
boundaries of your compassion and generosity. A
spate of lost items may be asking you to be more
present to physical reality. Trust your intuition on
the nature of the lesson at hand, work at your own
pace, and ask as many questions as you want.
Your life has all the answers.
