And it is the second great insight that Buddha gave us
in his very concise "Four Noble Truths".
And that is: Happiness is your natural state.
When you remove whatever makes you unhappy,
you are getting back to your natural state of being.
Not filtered through your mind, which will make it real.
Whatever circumstances are going on will make them real.
So, once you remove suffering, you're raising your vibration.
You don't need to add anything to you.
You just need to remove what you are not.
Or in Buddha's own words:
"It is in the nature of things that joy arises in a person free from remorse."
All you need to do is remove what you do not prefer.
What you are not.
What does not resonate with you.
You just need to find out about your attachments and about your resistances.
And let them go.
Once you let them go,
once you release the weights that are holding you down,
you will naturally lift your vibration.
That is kind of surprising.
But it is in the nature of things.
It's just the way it is.
It's just like the great sculptor, Michelangelo.
He created some real gorgeous sculptures, masterpieces.
Like the Pietà or David.
And someone asked him once:
"Oh, my God, Michelangelo, this is gorgeous."
"How could you create this beautiful sculpture from a piece of stone?"
And he said: "You know what, David was already in the stone."
"I just removed the extraneous stone."
I just removed what David was not.
Okay?
And by removing what David was not, there it is, David.
As we know him today.
So you don't need to ADD anything to you.
You are already perfect.
As the Eastern traditions would say.
You're already perfect.
What you need is to remove from yourself what you are not.
It's kind of like a balloon.
You know those hot-air balloons.
There is a balloon and here you're inside.
And these balloons often have some weights.
That's called ballast.
The only function of these weights is to keep you at a certain altitude.
If you want to go higher,
what you need to do is cut off one of those ballasts.
Okay?
Then you will make yourself lighter
and the balloon will go higher naturally.
You don't need anything to add to that balloon.
Only remove the ballast, the weight that you don't need.
If you want to go higher.
And that is why...
I am strongly opposed, personally, to calling this,
what we are talking about, self-help, or self-improvement.
Because self-improvement means that there is a better version of yourself.
Somewhere in the future.
And if there is a better version of me in the future,
that means that this version now is not good enough.
That immediately puts you in guilt and shame.
Because you are not good enough or you are afraid.
You're worried about what people will think of you.
Because you should be better.
Please don't do that!
Please don't do self-help and please don't do self-improvement.
What you should do is self-exploration.
Self-discovery.
Find out what you already are.
And when you find out what you already are...
The path to finding what you already are
is by removing from yourself what you are NOT.
As the great poet Rumi said:
"Your task is not to seek for love,"
"but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself"
"that you have built against it."
