Dream world and a calling beyond

281221: Shree

One can keep writing about God. Perception is a double edged sword. Perception is our state of existence – in motion or no motion. This is self talk and imagination can make one feel guilty, miserable, and helpless if wrongly used. Know that we are divine, so imagination is incidental and we will keep imagining for this is what we have been called for – as God’s projections. All world is God’s projections and there is nothing in space and time that is not His or doesn’t manifest without His will. We have to rise ourselves from the narrow confinements we have set for ourselves because of our ego or tendency to cling to motion. It is the will or the potential to be non motion or to manifest or appear as motion. This can be done by dissolving vibrations or anything that senses feed us or to concentrate the mind at one point without distractions caused by senses. Thus, existence is independent of any vibrations and vibrations result in movement or the feeling of birth and death, but NOT existence which is already there.

Terms of projection, reflection, manifestation, motion may be apparent – something there or not there as a phenomenon – or it being a property called Maya.

The lesson to learn from this state is not of loss of control, but to understand the limitation of the idea of control and to rise ourselves to become divine and unconditional in whatever we set out to do.

As motion, our intentions are limited by faculties of mind (or by attachment). We define some purpose for our thoughts and actions and we expect something in return – this creates cycles of engagement and there is no end to it. There is absolutely no reason (except for our constructs) why certain things, events, people, situations react or sound or behave in those manners. We react and it is a sure sign of attachment or our belied in motion and to be motion.

Why things happen in particular ways is best understood to lie beyond mere logic, so whatever we imagine, we try to find answers in terms of causes and effects and therefore lay expectations. We create some relationships to situations and we feel pain or pleasure – it is a self crafted story.  In this story, we create ourselves, we create situations, we create others and we then go for a roller coaster ride of life.  Again, why we create these things in the first place (why become a fox) need not have any answer! One can enjoy the story nevertheless or feel mad about it! Either way, it is a story! The urge to renounce kicks in when enough of this story telling has been done by us and we experience a “calling” beyond. If we are awake, if we hear it and if we pursue it, then we become consciousness. Till then, we are in a dream world.

Hari Om.
