Use Your Single Time To Anchor Yourself In The Truth

Q: What do you have to say to all the single people who are searching for a life partner? 

A: "You don't know how lucky you are." Mooji

(laughter)

"During Satsang, ego thins away and it can start to feel painful being single.  Ego is looking for something/someone to attach itself to to buy some more time. So sometimes we have some forced relationships, quickly, where the ego is trying to hold on.  

Use the time to focus on yourself.  Be secure in yourself.  Someone will come unexpectedly.  Not by your own power searching.. going thru your checklist. Then you bring into this your fullness, what a beautiful thing. In the meantime if something doesn't come along, don't be waiting, use your energy to be steady in the truth.  Don't go into a relationship desperate.  Nobody wants anyone who is desperate, it's such a turn off, don't be desperate.  If you're desperate you are misguided by your thoughts.  Use your single time to throw off desperation and to be anchored in the truth. Then, in the right moment, life brings someone who is so suited to you. This person doesn't disturb your satsang, they actually encourage and intensify your satsang. (satsang literally means “association with Truth")

You don't have to be a Buddha, but have your priorities in the right place.  Don't put that 'the most important thing in life is not to be alone.'  But somehow you understand that this is your dedication to Truth, to your self, your devotion to Truth.  Otherwise a life partner could become a life sentence." lol.
