What is Loneliness?
Loneliness is one of the inescapable human conditions we all suffer from. There are time when we all feel lonely even in the midst of crowds, with some of the people we hang out with and not to mention, in our own company too! Even when we are surrounded by people, we would yearn to spend more time alone.
Learning to live in the present moment and accept our loneliness without any resistance, we could experience a joyful space around that loneliness rather than being immersed in it and suffer.
What is Aloneness?
In contrast to loneliness which is unpleasant, painful and miserable, Aloneness is solitude, a feeling of completeness, where we discover our Self, our Soul, with the realization that our Soul is not Alone, but is eternally connected to everything else around us. Aloneness is when we go beyond the mind and our body, and allowing our ego to be melt away, letting our soul to illuminate and express it’s natural, pure self, – the ultimate joy!
