Your Inner Personality
Problems come to every individual. We are experiencing the fruits of our karma in the present. We are also obliged to undergo karmic influences in the future. If you know how to develop your Inner Personality and make it pure and strong, then you can come out of this karmic cycle. All of you are embodied with a work culture, involved in your own professions. You have different educational backgrounds. So, the work culture each one of you is exposed to is quite different. But there is one common factor — the force called ‘You’. And it is that ‘You’ that is called the Atman, Soul. We also call it God. When you go to sleep at night, there is no body-consciousness at all. All of you become equal, one and the same. As soon as you wake up, the environment around you hits you. The culture to which you are exposed everyday hits you. You suddenly become aware of your bodyconsciousness; you become aware of what and who you are. As soon as you wake up, your environment and jobs literally overpower you. You have forgotten that real ‘You’. You have a bath in the morning. You dress up smartly and say, “Okay, I’m fine. I’m ready to go.” Externally, we are all dressed to kill. But how many of us are dressed internally? Your identity is completely tied to your surroundings. You are not aware of that beautiful, wonderful energy inside you — that energy called Atman. That is why you fail to realise and comprehend the power within you. You can overcome your problems; just develop your Inner Personality.
