Self Acceptance

In all the noise that gets generated in terms of proving a point or a system of knowledge, the question is to understand the nature of knowledge itself and the impulses that create knowledge.

We perceive the world and conceptual a response based on the nature of our thoughts. Thoughts mean that phenomenon that arise because of the phenomenon of the body and the mind – a finite feeling of existence in a given space-time construct. Hence, thoughts will include anything that a human mind can comprehend/ generate – the most evil to the most fascinating. These affect ‘us’ – and we remain obsessed with the notion of identity/ clinging tendency of the mind. Clinging to an idea or people of place or situation. Is clinging wrong? Perhaps its necessary part of evolution of the mind. We start by clinging to something – a frame that we define for ourselves. Certainly this frame, being a mental construct has limitations. This causes stress of existence – in terms of memory, conflict or freedom. Knowing the nature of thought may take us to a philosophy of consciousness – a medium where patterns take place and they reappear and manifest as events or situations or life forms. Experiencing this consciousness means to accept the nature of the mind. Anything shorter than this effort – is an incomplete understanding of the mind’s tendencies to portray feelings and intellect.

Thus, self acceptance isn’t related to performance, work, situations, reactions, egos, justifications, judgements or on anything that manifests and anything we perceive or conceive. Had that been the case, we would have continued to keep running after the illusion of perfection – and we do that too! Thus, perfection too, is a phenomenon of manifestation – not of the soul or consciousness. However, by certain tendencies of thoughts, such as minimalistic, fundamental, simplicity, decoding, analysis, criticality, wholesomeness, philosophy, truthfulness, sincerity, trust, forgiveness, acceptance – we may experience transcendence.
