On my spiritual journey, I realize that nothing matters. This knowledge has put me into a state of utter inaction. How to get out of it?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

You want to get out of it, so you are already one step out of it. That is why from time to time we organise these big festivals, for you to get out and be there as a volunteer, then you cannot slip into laziness, depression and so on. When you work in groups, your skills develop, your awareness gets heightened and your patience increases because you find all types of people in a team. They push all your buttons, and you finally get into a position where you feel centered.

If everything goes well and you keep a smile, what is so great about that. Any fool can do that. If you are a wise person you should be able to smile even when things are not okay. Everything comes through knowledge, and knowledge comes through seva and team work. Working in teams will definitely help.
