Q12: How to be happy when you are lonely? | Answered by Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar answers on how to be happy when you are lonely

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

You should feel the freedom! (Laughter from the audience) Look at the birds, how they fly.
What is lonely? When there is nobody to bug you, nobody to ask you where did you go? What did you do? Whom did you look at? No control, no obligation, nothing! It is like being a free bird, just jump around like a bird. You want to put some music on and dance, do it!

What do you mean by lonely? Just having a partner does not take away your loneliness, mind you! There are millions of people who have partners, soul mates, who have fallen in love and married the same person, and yet they feel lonely! Many may not come out and tell you honestly, but if you ask the ideal couples, "Tell me one secret, do you ever feel lonely or anything like that?" They will say, "Yes!"

The only people who don’t feel lonely are the ones who are connected with the being, with the self. One who is established in the self feels no loneliness. Only spiritual elevation can take away the loneliness, not soul mates.

    I have experienced this.
    The moment we feel connected to ourselves loneliness dissappears
    with yoga or meditation.With prayers we get connected to god.
