How can one cope with jealously ?
Sri Bhagavan : Jealousy is basically coming from insecurity. Insecurity is coming from fear. If somebody is doing good, then you feel jealous. If you watch carefully, it is basically your own fear, your own insecurity when you see someone doing well. Then what is your problem? If somebody is in a wonderful car, a better car than yours, then what is your problem? Your problem is that you are unable to do and you want to do, you cannot do, you might not be able to do, whether you will be able to do or not. So, you are basically satisfying yourself by giving an explanation, by saying that the other person is trying to show off. Or, you might condemn that person or condemn yourself for feeling jealous. What you should do is just watch this story which is going on inside. Just watch. That very watching is liberation.
Bhagavan says, “To see is to be free.” You must only see how your fear is expressing itself as jealousy. The moment you start watching, the charge goes away and you feel so relieved and so nice about it. At this point of time I can only talk about it and explain like this. But there is much more.
