Neither seek nor avoid
Neither seek nor avoid – anything. Both are our imaginations stemming from the mind. The mind believes in motion and whatever motion projects, it believes to be true. Things become “true” or get “formed” or constructs created by vibration/ motion and anything dependent or stemming from vibrations (in our case – mind + body). Mind and body are a phenomenon of manifestation/ vibration and these things become incidental. The craze of finding a cause of a phenomenon or a relationship of cause and effect has a limited potential as what is the point of answering the question of motion? The question exists in motion and not beyond it. The mind, intellect, constructs exist in motion and not beyond it. The belief of “many” (name and form) exist in motion and all judgments, expectations, desires, efforts, search, avoidance also exist in the world of manifestation (which we can summarily call as a “state” of existence). Thus to seek anything may reflect a tendency that tries to “complete” the picture or find ever lasting peace in a changing world and to avoid something, also indicates an imaginary notion of clinging to something. As long as thinking occurs, it is a sign of motion and that indicates the entire world of perception of existence with all its colours – from good to evil and a constantly changing state of existence.
So what is there to cling to it and to be afraid of it or to expect anything from it? Isn’t it an incidental part of consciousness? There is a medium called consciousness, which may have a tendency to vibrate and create these phenomena. If a tendency or motion is set, there is perception of name and form, else there is no such thing as manifestation.
Any form has a property, it can be felt and it can be described. The property is not static and it depends on the nature of perception of the observer – this means that all things in this world from physical to perception are relative.
If there is a property of consciousness, then it may be said that It may keep vibrating to create motion and space-time. All things in the mode of vibration perceive different forms and names and one single thing beyond motion need not perceive anything at all! Thus, all things are a result of this phenomenon of consciousness. Thus perception is a matter of motion/ mind. Beyond perception, beyond the laws of Nature there exists bliss.
Thus, as long as we exist, the ego is to be crushed and the clinging tendency is also to be obliterated. So do not seek anything, as it is only an illusion. Do not avoid anything, as it indicates expectation. Stay centered and realize peace within.
