Between towards and away

Human mind always seems busy in running towards something or running away from something. In middle of this running towards and running away it misses something called "The Moment". It run towards what? The DESIRES of all nature personal, material, spiritual and emotional and the ego. It runs away from the Fear, the fear of loosing what it already has achieved or the fear of insecurity. The MOMENT  which lies in middle of this running towards and running away is nothing but STILLNESS  and in this stillness we are close to the creator.
As great Master's say it's important to be outwardly active with a state of this inner stillness. Maintaining a moderation between outward activity and inner stillness is an art but we can tame it with practice.
