Let it 'go'...and thrive!

 

Intellect and feelings are a force that makes us perceive our existence (connections with environment, idea of self and place of memory). It has been said before that ‘we’ perceive vibrations of consciousness – in terms of space, intent and matter (or consciousness, mind and body). Every known matter in the Universe is a phenomenon of space, force and matter. It remains interconnected with other phenomena and it perceives its own existence. In other words, ‘matter’ and the manner in which ‘it perceives’ others and how it is ‘perceived’ by others is interrelated. There is no perception without feeling the presence of matter and no matter has any existence unless it is perceived! Thus, are forms really present out there – is dependent on the manner of one’s perception (quality/ nature of perception).  Our perception can sense Universe as matter or force (thought/ intent) or pure consciousness. In each of these states, we will see the forms differently. Since all states are present in each and every corner and speck of Space, we remain connected with everything. If we choose to be affected by changes, it is an indication of our nature of perception. If we remain undisturbed/ tranquil/ still…..it means we have perceived consciousness as our own dimension and that is what we see everywhere. Thus, the Universe is a mirror or a reflection of ‘our’ state of mind. One will send signal and receive signals and be affected depending on one’s own making. Thus the experience of manifestation is relative.

In this scope of perception, we then should realize what do feelings and intellect do to our nature of perception? Do they expand our awareness or instill fear (contraction)?   The entire Universe can be seen harbouring any kind of intent, since it is ‘we’ who generate this thought. In terms of feelings, we may choose to practice love and surrender and service – all these helping us to expand our mind. In terms of intellect, we may use the ability to analyse situations and decode the nature of existence and the extent to which ‘control’ or ‘perfection’ is to be practiced and to let go of many unknown variables.

It is from the Unknown variables, that ‘known’ variables are formed. Meaning, that there is no limit to the digging of minutest of variables. However, more minute the variables, more compulsion to control them and more tendency of accelerated rate of change exhibited by those variables. Hence, more analysis or dissection, leads to more noise, chaos and faster changing world. Result is increased self induced stress.

Thus, the core of existence needs to be realized. For what do we exist? What is it that we aim to do? What is purpose? And what is to be decided? All these are important questions to continue pursuing.
