Daily Connect: Are You Special?

It is important to recognize that you are special, the most special, the only special. And with that recognition it is important to see this person next to you is absolutely special and the only special, the only one!  They go together.  [When I met my teacher] Papaji, there were a few other people there, but I felt very special. He made me his pet in that first meeting. I got to come over earlier than other people. I left for a period of time and came back to visit him after about five months. Then he never even invited me over for tea!  Actually, when I met him that time he said, "What are you doing back here so soon?".  It was wonderful because I saw how I had constellated around "I am special", and these other people are not quite as special. I am the specialness, and I will come to him and get more juice and then go and give this to other people. This is not accurate.  So, I want people to come to satsang and to both feel special and to feel how that is a universal quality, that that is the Self, that specialness, and that is in fact what we love in each other and what we fear in each other.
