Your Purpose is a Lie: The Ancient Truth You're Missing
19m 58s
The speaker rejects the common pursuit of a "mission" or "purpose," calling it an illusion that leads to endless searching and emptiness. Instead, they introduce "Dharma," a Sanskrit term meaning duty—a personal agreement made before birth that defines one's role on Earth. Unlike a mission, Dharma is a choice and a contract with oneself, and following it aligns individuals with oneness, bringing lasting peace and bliss. The speaker emphasizes that external sources like money or relationships provide only temporary happiness; true fulfillment comes from within when one honors their duty. To discover Dharma, one must stop seeking and instead take the "next logical step," moving forward with faith until the path becomes clear. They clarify that duty and passion can coexist, citing examples from the Bhagavad Gita and modern life. The key is to release the need for a grand purpose, live in the present, and trust the process. The speaker also promotes "Your Wishes Are Your Command," a book claiming to reveal a proven formula for manifesting desires, which they say has transformed lives by doubling incomes and creating success. Ultimately, following Dharma is the true road to enlightenment, self-realization, and limitless bliss.
There's no such thing as a mission or a purpose. It doesn't exist. It's an illusion. People think if I find my mission, if I find my purpose, then I'll fill up this emptiness inside me. And they'll be empty the whole life. They never find it. They never will. So people seek for ever something that they will never, ever find. There's a word, and most people don't know the word, that will lead you down a road that ultimately ends with peace, serenity, joy, contentment. And it's not mission. It's not purpose. It's a different word. And once you understand how to apply it, you will learn the secret to total fulfillment in life. Today, there's a big push on finding your mission, finding your purpose. It's the wrong thing to search for, because you can never find it. Dharma is completely different. Dharma is a Sanskrit word, which means duty. And really, if you look at the original meanings of it from our standpoint in the Brotherhood, we were taught to find your duty for being on this planet, your agreement and the contract you made to be on this planet. Duty is different than, quote, a mission or a purpose. Oh, I found my mission. I found my purpose in life. No, you do your Dharma. You do your duty. You do the thing that you agreed to do while you're on Earth. Dharma is nothing that was assigned to you. It's an agreement you made. It was a decision you made. It was a choice you made. It comes from a previous existence. And before you incarnate into this existence, you make an agreement. You make a decision. You make a choice. It's a 100% your choice. Nobody told you you had to do this. And when you come, you keep that agreement that you made with yourself. It's an agreement with yourself. No one else. Because there's only one. There's no one else you could make an agreement with. But you made it with yourself. If you follow your Dharma, which is your duty, if you get into alignment with the agreement you made to come on planet Earth, the contract you made to come on here. And you maintain and follow that agreement, keep that agreement, keep that promise. Do your duty. Then you will be on a path that leads you to connectedness or oneness. And when you establish and feel and experience that oneness, you no longer seek a mission or purpose. That vanishes. So people are thinking, if I find my mission or purpose, I'll find that oneness or connectedness. That's not how it works. You find the oneness or connectedness and then you no longer seek a mission or purpose. So many people are searching for their purpose. But Dharma also seems difficult to grasp, is it? Dharma is duty. You know what your duty is. I mean, put yourself in a position where you would be duty bound. So you have a duty to uphold the law. You sign a note, you agree to uphold the law. You're a policeman. If somebody is breaking the law, you have a duty to uphold the law. Whatever the duty is, is the agreement that you made that you follow through with. That's duty. It's very simple. What that always purpose, what that always mission mean. These are myths. These are things that we put out to the population to give them something to seek that they could never find. It's the holy grail. Keep looking. Find the ark of the covenant. Good luck. It doesn't exist. And now they're on a path to nowhere. But duty is simple. If we understand past lives, we come into this life with an agreement. We made an agreement. We made a contract. We made a promise. I will incarnate and I will do XYZ. This is your duty. This is why you're here. You follow your duty. Now, when you follow your duty, it may not be something that gives you joy or play your, you're keeping an agreement. It's completely different. People have this illusion that, oh, once I find my purpose, I'll be blissfully happy all day long because I'll find, I'll feel like I'm doing what I was meant to do. And then they search forever because they're going down the wrong road seeking the wrong thing. They think that if I find my purpose in life, then that emptiness inside me, that's something they can't put their finger on, will magically go away. But really, their seeking is oneness, connectedness to all that is. That's what they're looking to attain, but they don't know it. So they think, oh, more sexual exploits, more women, more drugs, more money, that's going to solve that emptiness inside me. That's going to give me that thing that I'm missing. It doesn't, doesn't. Nothing exterior, nothing outside of yourself will ever satisfy you. Things on the external world will give you some temporary happiness, but it's fleeting, just like Christmas. We wake up when we were kids at Christmas time, we opened up all the presents, we were the happiest kid in the world. And then when all the presents were opened, we had the big sugar crash. All of a sudden, we were no longer ecstatic. The next day, we're all bummed out. It was over. Happiness is fleeting. Blister joy stems from within. It comes from this eternal well when you are connected to and one with all that is. Now you can experience within, not an emotion and not a feeling. It goes beyond those words. It's something you can't describe in words. You could call it bliss, but even that is a misnomer. But it's an everlasting, eternal, non-stop flowing of this oneness, this connectedness, which means you know are no longer seeking anything, because you have it all. So how do people find their Dharma? What question should they ask themselves as they seek to find it? Anytime somebody is seeking something, they'll never find it. You find something or you get an answer to something when you least expect it. So you need to stop searching. The key to life is simply this. Do the next logical step. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. It's one step after the next. You eat an elephant, one bite at a time, and you focus on that bite. In life you need to go as far as you can see. And only when you get there will you see further. Imagine you're in a car. It has headlights. The headlights only go out a few feet, and they illuminate only a few feet in front of the car. Imagine you're on a road. Imagine there's no stars and no moon that it's a cloudy night at its pitch black. And imagine you're on a country road where there's no lights. It is pitch black. You can drive from miles. Even though your headlights only illuminate a few feet in front of you. Why? Because every time you move forward, you see further. You move forward, you see a little further. People have no problem doing that. But in life they want to have this master plan. They want to see their whole life right in front of them. They have no faith to take just the next logical step. They have no faith to say, you know, I'm going to go as far as I can see. And when I get there, I'll see further. They want to see around the corner. You can't. You have to go straight ahead until you get to the corner, and only then will you see around the corner. You need to start moving now. So when people are seeking and looking for their purpose and their mission, again, they'll never find it because it doesn't exist. They should be following their duty and dharma. And what is their duty? What's right in front of them? Everyone knows what their duty is. Everyone knows what they should do. Everyone knows what's the right thing to do. Everybody knows what the next logical step is. They can be in a, they know when they're in alignment. I should be doing that. Or they forced themselves to do this. We know there is a knowingness, but we resist it or we bury our head in the sand to it. And we start seeking these other things. As far as you can see, when you get there, you'll see further. When I was in the brotherhood, I asked the question. I said, you know, shouldn't I make a five year plan or a 10 year plan or a 20 year plan or a 50 year plan? They said, yes, you can make some general plans, but they have to be very loose. The only thing you should be focusing on is today. And what is the next logical step? As far as you can see, and when you get there, you'll see further. This allows you to operate in a space of complete knowingness with no doubt and allows you to be in present time. You know, there's a great book called The Power of Now. And we talked about being in present time, being in the now. When you are in present time, there is no pain. There is no suffering. There is no wanting when you're in present time. If people are seeking something, that means they're not in present time. They're either in the past experiencing pain or they're wondering about the future. But if you are right in this present moment, if you are 100% in
present time. You have no pain and no wanting and you seek nothing because you have it all. It was just an awakening. My income has doubled. I'm getting close to tripling. You can build an amazing, amazing life, although just your wishes are your command. How much more money I'm earning and the woman that I have in my life is just miraculous. Your wishes are your command gave me the recipe to manifest the job that I wanted. It really just gives you the recipe. After I finished it, my life changed. My income doubled. I've been a glass of money. It was like magic. I'm making more money than I've ever had ever. Enlightening. Empowering. Powerful. But simple. Inspiring. Activating. After getting your wishes are your command, I went some 5K on my bank account to 8 million in one and a half years. How does someone know if they're in alignment with their Dharma? Do you need to love what your Dharma is? There was a clip in the movie "Patent," General Droidjust's Patent. He was talking with General Bradley, two professional generals in the Second World War. Patent was doing third-armie magic in France. General Bradley was talking to him. General Bradley said something profound. It's in the actual writings. It's not just a movie line in the script. It's the actual out of the diaries. General Bradley said, "George, talking to Patent, George, the difference between you and I is I do this job because I was trained to do it and it's my duty to do it. You do it because you love it." And that's the difference. If you follow your Dharma, which is your duty, you don't necessarily love it, but you embrace it. The perfect example of this is in the Bhagavad Gita, which is a short book that comes out of the larger text, the Mahabharata, or the Mahabharata, depending on how you pronounce it. This is the story of Krishna, Lord Krishna, who was the incarnation of the God Vishnu, who's one of the trilogy in Christianity. He would be the son, Father, Son, Holy Ghost. Krishna was the incarnation of that deity, that God energy in the form of a human, and Arjuna was just a man. Arjuna was in the chariot and he was a warrior. Remember of the warrior class engaged in a battle. Krishna was the chariot here through a whole series of circumstances. Arjuna went out into the battlefield, lined up with his battle, with his army against the opposing army. The problem was the opposing army consisted of Arjuna's relatives, friends, teachers. There was a split in the ranks. And Arjuna was distraught. He said, "Why am I going to fight? My teacher, my friend, my relatives, my cousins. I'm going to kill them. Why? I am distraught." And there's this great conversation between Krishna and Arjuna. And one of the things in this conversation was Krishna telling Arjuna, "What is your Dharma? Who are you? I'm a warrior. I'm a member of the warrior class. Yes, and it's your duty to fight. That is what you are here to do. That's what you agree to do on this planet. Follow your duty and you'll be in alignment and you will reach oneness and nirvana, even killing the people in front of you. This is shocking to the West when you hear this. The teachings are very, very deep. There are as a great book by Swami Sat Chidrananda, which I was given in the Brotherhood, which gives the Bhagavad Gita the Sanskrit text, the translation into English, but more importantly a commentary explaining what this meant and putting it into context of the time and the era and so forth. So you understood a little bit more in context what the meaning was. It was incredibly eye-opening. And quite frankly, it shattered all of these taboos and all of these rigid things that I was taught from a religious perspective growing up in the Catholic Church and also learning about Judaism. All of these things were just shattered. It opened up my mind to possibility as opposed to keeping me within a box. But Dharma, which is duty, is what people should seek to always follow. This is the path to oneness. It is the path to enlightenment. It is the path to consciousness and awareness and it is the path to opening up and feeling that eternal bliss that never ceases and surpasses as it says in the Christian Bible, surpasses all human understanding. How do you follow your Dharma, that agreement and commitment, and still do what you love? People always ask, "How is doing your duty, your following your Dharma?" Consistent with the idea of do what you love to do, follow your bliss. They seem to be in conflict with one another. No, they're not. They're not mutually exclusive and they're not in conflict at all. Doing both is the ideal scene. If you follow your duty and follow your bliss, you're in the ideal sweet spot and you absolutely 100% can do both. Because Dharma or duty is effectively honesty, keeping an agreement. And the perfect example is, I have a duty to be a good employee. But my bliss is starting my own business and being a carpenter. My duty is to be a good employee. My duty is to that company that paid me, going to that boss and saying, "I need to resign. I need to get my notice because I need to start my own company. I've kept my ethics in. I've kept my agreements. And I'm following my bliss." Because one part of duty is also to follow your bliss. That's an element of Dharma, to follow what gives you pleasure. But remember, some elements of duty aren't necessarily the thing that you love to do, but you do anyway out of responsibility, commitment, and agreement. When you do that, your life begins to shift because you kept your ethics in, you've kept your agreements. You will see yourself as an honest, ethical, trust worthy person who is worthy and deserving of all the good things that life can give you. So for someone who feels stuck or unfulfilled, what's the next step? Release a need to know your mission or purpose. Release that. Breathe. Release a need to know and say, "I'm going to live in this moment and I'm going to do the next logical step in my life and I'm going to do what I can see. I'm going to go as far as I can see and when I get there, I'll see further." Mission and purpose don't exist. Duty is the road or path to enlightenment, oneness, self-realization, and releasing that inner well of limitless bliss. That's really the road that will lead to everything that you want, that you think is missing on the inside. What is manifesting? Well, it's the ability to create the exact life you want. It's the ability to draw in and attract anything you desire. But most people don't understand the true energetic science, the actual formula of how to manifest. They're not following a recipe that works or they're missing key elements of the formula. Therefore, they fail. Your wishes, your command, changes that. This book reveals the missing keys of manifesting. The ones that actually work is the actual step-by-step formula the world's wealthiest elites have used and guarded for decades to unlock true manifestation power. People have called it the success system that never fails. Apply it and you'll see the results. This is not based on theory. This book comes from thousands of year old principles, a formula that has passed the test of time and that has proven to work 100% of the time when it's applied. It is the only step-by-step, totally complete manifesting or prosperity or success system in existence. That's the reason why people who read this and apply it are seeing such spectacular results.
