The fact is that the suffering present, now, at this moment, in your life, is because of ignorance. You ignore the Truth about who You are. You do not know this Truth! Thought has warded you off from this Truth. You are continually identifying with the stories thought creates about what is going on in your life. And here the idea of "your life" is the idea of what happens externally. All of this has an internal representation. Thought is creating internal representations of what is happening externally.
Actually, it is apparently external since, in fact, this is happening internally. The whole afflictive burden, all this burden of suffering, lies in this ignorance. You ignore the Truth about who You are, but you are very sure – this because of an image that has been formed, internally, over all these years… You are very sure of the ideas about what the world around you, at this moment, represents and who you are within this context.
And I want to tell you that this is completely illusory. This is happening because of your identification with thoughts. Being identified with thoughts is the basis of this condition. I want to invite you to disidentify with what thought has created about who you are, in this relationship with this so-called "external world," where there are people, where there are situations...
There is no Peace, no Freedom, no Stillness, there is no Silence since there is no Truth. What prevails is ignorance. Ignorance in the sense that you are completely ignoring the Truth about who You are, relying entirely on what the mind says about who you are and what the world represents to you at this moment.
Satsang is an invitation to the Realization of the Truth, the Truth about who You are, which represents a complete disidentification with everything thought says. And here, when I use the expression "thought," I also mean the feelings attached to those thoughts, those emotions that come along with those feelings and thoughts.
The Truth of your Being is the Divine Truth. When I came across my Master, I faced this answer: the answer to the question that we rarely ask, ask ourselves. The question is, "who am I?"
There is so much confidence in what thought says, in what mind says. This is taken for certainty, absolute and great certainty, that we never ask this question. And so we remain ignorant, ignoring the Truth of who we are, and naturally ignoring the Divine Truth we are.
Therefore, I want to invite you to be in Satsang, to have a realistic approach to yourself through self-investigation, meditation, and surrender, surrender to the Truth about Yourself.
