What things give you energy?

Energy, comes from reconnecting with our true self—our consciousness, which is beyond our thoughts, emotions, and external experiences. When we lose touch with this deeper essence, we often become entangled in the ups and downs of life, driven by desires, fears, and temporary pleasures. These fleeting experiences drain our energy, as we identify with the limited self—our mind, body, and personal story.

True energy arises when we shift our awareness back to our inherent nature, the unchanging consciousness that connects us all. This realization—that we are part of the same vast whole, like drops in an infinite ocean—dissolves the separateness that leads to attachment, anger, and worry. In this space, energy flows naturally, as we are no longer resisting or chasing external circumstances, but simply being, in harmony with life.

By resting in this understanding, we return to a state of peace, clarity, and vitality. Instead of being drained by expectations and fears, we tap into the boundless energy of the source, which is within all of us. In this state, love, compassion, and joy arise naturally, fueling our actions and interactions with others. As we live from this unity, we find that energy is not something we must seek outside ourselves—it is always available when we reconnect with the truth of who we are.

In this realization, may all beings find peace, compassion, and the joy of recognizing our shared, limitless essence.
