Enlightenment is remembering what you are
hence the purpose of life is NOT enlightenment , but creation ( action )
you are here to create something, and you have choosen to do this.
The inherent state of peace is to disturb,and any distrubance has to come back
you could choose to transcend the dualities, or you can dance in the dualities where you get occasional glimpse of the ultimate or you could swing to either state.( possibly because of bored of your divine existence:)) )
and the purpose of creation ( == action ) is getting back to remembering what you are…..
and hence the non duality of everything…
everything is right only from a personal context....do any action only if it makes sense to you...and you want it ....sometimes it is very difficult to know what you REALLY WANT, because ..the real self does not want it..you have to do some "soul-searching"..ie look at the core layers near to the self for the needs.. they are the real wants and the purpose of those wants is to create.….you (as an separate individual exist ) because of this wants…
every person can look at their lifes.... find the real wants..they could chose to drop them or FULLFILL THEM..both the choices are right....
no want is given without the power to FULFILL it.. ( yeah bach is right J)
every action including "raping" and "preaching" is SACRED..( shocking?!!)...
every action including "sweeping on the streets" and "researching astrophysics" is GREAT...mind loves challenges...( that’s the way the mind is )
IT IS impossible to "COMMUNICATE" in the TRUE SENSE.... everything is different subtly.
everything is preprgrammed..but you have the absolute free will at the same time..
There is choice /as well as illusion of choice at the same time. In the absolute, there is no choice, in fact there is nothing at all to talk about the absolute...
You have to use the rules of the world (or natural laws of the world…which again could be derived from the absolute truth or from the self) , even to teach people the absolute or to succeed in the corporate world....
what goes up , HAS TO come down...and what is going down also has to COME UP...but in the center, you have a chance of going up or going down...
Choice is yours to go up or DOWN right now or take rest in the center for a while....
the meaning is in the meaningless..you get what you want in the long run? What else do you want :))?
Everything/every person is SACRED.( SACRED is a non judgmental beautiful thing..)
Beauty is beyond judgments…
Truth is beauty and beauty is truth..(Yeah Keats is right:) )
Knowledge of this is enough to kill the ego
death of ego is enlightenment…
The universe always goes out of balance just to strive balance...
The constant movement of going off balance and coming to balance, this dynamic equilibrium is the law of the universe... the same thing is evident in every entity ( macro or micro ) of the universe. It is an interplay of opposites. This is probably what the Chinese used to call as the "yin and yang"
This includes everything ( randomly picked ) like
chaos & order
subject & object
good & bad
action & inaction (rest)
left brain & right brain
male & female
freedom & discipline
art & Science
any force particle & its anti particle.
velocity & postiion
The good news is you can perform 100% action being in the middle path, being aware of your infinite nature.
The interplay is so beautiful and that these are interleaved. ie there is chaos in order and order in chaos. This is applicable for every other opposite..
this is the why there is a seemingly contradiction everywhere...
and the truth is beyond , but in both the opposites. .it is the one encompassing the oppssites..and it just is ( which is beyond qualities ),
And finally when you felt that you have figured it all, the universe would surprise you ( as you inherently have to loose the balance you have achieved ). The same goes for life and everything else..This is what makes the so-called middle path so beautiful. Middle path is like walking on a rope, in a dance to both sides, without moving an inch one feet on earth , one off the ground...And Life becomes a free ride, and everything becomes JUST IS !
Ultimately every one/every thing in the world is following a middle path consciously or unconsciously..
You have chosen to do everything on this planet. It is a role you have choosen for....
Even gods are choosing to do. Some of them choose to be gods. Bigger responsibility ...more power.. ….( see the lives of the masters )
hence there is no ultimate place to go to ....well there is as well...: )….
Every rule of the small mind, applies to the big mind (ISHWAR ?? ) as well. However the big consciousness is resting...
The consciousness of GOD ( BIG MIND ) is the Brahman ( the one which is beyond the truth. the one we are trying to derive this “non-dual” rules from )
Every moment , you have a choice for action ( creation or destruction , just complimentary actions..+/- ..we cant just which one is creation/destruction ) or rest. Either one is fine.
Every act of creation , there has to be complimenting act of destruction as well..we cant say which act is creation or which one is destruction in the true sense...
Every life, or every minute , you have a choice to play or come back home or be...everything IS...isness exists on left, right and middle.
Some of just choose to come home . The inherent nature is to come back home after playing.....action vs rest..remember the striving for equilibrium..
Every action is evolution ( ie either creation or coming back home )..
and hence every act is spiritual..
Dawning of wisdom in some space/time is a happening and IT HAS TO HAPPEN ON WHEN YOU ARE NEAR HOME
if you are scared of loosing your identity , you would never loose it..if you always want to remember suresh and do not want to loose his characteristics and wants, you are bound by him..either drop them..drop the vasanas or fullfill them...vasanas bind you...but then what the reason of existence with NO IDENITTY ? well the price might be high..but the reward is equally high..which is SAT-CHIT-ANANDA....
every argument is right/wrong at the same time
every knowledge with words could be correctly or misinterpreted at the same time
Every statement is wrong or right at the same time . logic breaks down . Evolved scientists have understood this and have dropped traditional methods of logic. and have moved to QUANTUM LOGIC...
this is one of the reasons why spirituality/truth looks so contradictory
Every act or instance would pull you to come back home or create..both are right...you have a choice to make...you could choose ..both are "right" ..
i could choose to forget this knowledge tomorrow to create somethng ( fullfill my real wants )....You have to instantaneously forget to create...
the middle path is "create/come home..create/come home.."....or be home at the time of creation...
From here, you could again choose to create or REST...
Thoughts come from nowhere. you don’t have a choice...
Every thing exists because of the opposite. and the absolute just exists in both as IS..
Epitome of Good in western religions is GOD,while the other side is SATAN...
And Brahman, is both ( transcendal ) AND IS...
do you want to be sach-chit-ananda all through in timelessness ? you could if you want to be..and then you drop this line too…
you have always somewhere to go...the farther away from home , the more "miserable" you would be....you would be happier on the way back home...
where even misery and happiness are also chosen states...
if you don’t live the knowledge it doesn’t stay. no point writing it down
every moment is a chance to live or a pointer to the knowledge. You have a choice to make which would help you create.
You cant hold on here, inherent nature is to loose balance and then strive for balance..you choose to create. and get into the world
even if a negative/uncomfortable thought happens and makes u feel bad, that i also for a purpose.
Does all your wants satisfied get when u are enlightened :) ?
you reach here only when all your wants diminish. You can choose a wish after this , ( sankalpa ) and you will have to work the worldly way. You could choose to stay home , whenever you feel feverish.. The world is created for this only...
What to do ?
NOTHING...if you want something else, then work for that
I CHOOSE TO GET OUT OF BALANCE NOW..and stop writing...:))
you may not understand any of these/or all of these...but either wouldnt matter...
Like Douglas Adams has said "There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.There is another which states that this has already happened."
with "sheer love" of existence
big bang matching with spirituality is valid only for this universes space time....another universe could be using an another set of scientific laws altogether/people/things all together...
Science’s limited knowledge and objectivity could keep your mind happy....mind breaks down at infinities. It cant fathom infinity.... but science also ultimately has to set ur mind free...any fact anything in the world does that (or the opposite)....there could be infinite universes( sub universes), happening all the time. In fact any thought is a creation.... and you could choose to create infinite things….like the world...no thoughts/wants come to you without the power of creating it.....you are infinite possibilities....THING BIG ( big according to the mind obviously :)))
Everything in the world is a replica of the ultimate.... The apparent human mind is a smaller version of the divine mind. and the soul is a replica of the ultimate consciousness....and the truth JUST IS .....
there is no way to conclude...there is no beginning or end. You could choose either way...
you always KNEW the TRUTH ( what is that now huh :) )
all the knowledge given is per situation as is happening like anything else..Absoulte truth needs to be given to only those are ready for it...? Ultimately the absolute truth is that there is no absolute truth….because a statement of the truth would involve a subject and an a object ..and hence not real.
Absolute "free thinking" is a great way to go ( hence question everything ) as free thinking comes from the self when you have broken down every concepts...and start afresh...ONE OF THE WAYS...KNOWLEDGE AND FREE THINKING both are needed...it is a paradox...knowledge should be used as a power..it should not bind you ....
Examine every thought of urs.....
faith produces logic and logic produces faith...
no difference between fiction and reality ..:))) ( can explain this to you ..if you send me a mail : ))
A given universe makes sure that the knowledge is shared....Gurus would come as and when time needs it.....the universe has built in models "inside" ( as everything has to be inside:)) ) , to maintain the equilibrium...
since none of this may not be true, why am i writing ? because i cant , but write.....
enough of work...GO TO REST NOW..:)))
no magical tool : just clarity of thought: clarity of thought produces right action necessary for the moment....clarity of thought increases with absolute free thinking and the perspective you are thinking from ...
Hawkins used to say that "if we are working for a grand unified theory, "THEORY of everything", the fact that we are working towards it also would be controlled by it...in spirituality, the fact that you are getting closer is facilitated by it...
Since every thing is a paradox, is there any search for truth ?
Even writing down these laws, because mind wants to understand...mind also strives to get somewhere, the "venus isle”. From a balcony point of view, no one is a stranger..
.whatever you do, is you were intended to do. The fallacy is assuming that the feel good is somewhere else...
ALGORITHM OF ACTION:
GET TO A STATE OF NO WANTS, BEING , NOTHING
FIX UP ANOTHER STATE,( creativity) ( as big as you can dream )
WORK
SLOG
WATCH OUT FOR DISTRACTIONS/SIGNS/other thoughts
DROP/SURRENDER
END TASK
