I am

 

Shree

There may be a question regarding the importance of writing all this versus to remain engaged with wordly affairs. Our mind bothers us further on following cyclic thoughts:

1.       Is this the ‘right’ thing to do at this moment and am I missing out on anything else?

2.       Will I achieve perfection if I do this or if this is avoided?

3.       Will I be peaceful?

All above questions are the result of being in motion – they do not necessarily depend on what is done, how things are done and why to do certain things over anything else. This means that the questions are generated or constructed or imagined time and again (or perceived by ‘us’) despite whatever we may be doing otherwise. So the approach to address above questions may partly be placed in motion and may be located beyond motion.

Any moment is the right moment. It is the intellect that expects some kind of control based on some idea of planning, interdependence, cause and effects and lays conditions of perfection based on these variables. It lays a condition that reads like IF all these variables perform in this manner ONLY THEN I am happy. This is a huge burden and expectation to perform for us. This happens because we operate through motion and motion means vibrations that result in perception (also clinging of imagination of mind and body). All above questions do not have a satisfactory answer in the world of motion. In fact what we encounter are questions and more questions! We create the cause of appearing as motion and hence we also have to face the effects! Cause and effects are imaginary and to think that by doing a particular thing in a particular way in a particular space and at a particular time will lead to a perfect situation and a stable one at rest is extremely foolish.

Now if the vibrations themselves are silenced, then there is nothing to fear since there will never be any separate entity. Consciousness is always there and will always remain in a state of non motion. It DOES NOT require any support of space or time or any form to perceive Itself or anything else. Perception of self (and hence ego) happens in motion. In non motion there is only One, so how will the One perceive Itself? Our ideas are dependent on our faculty of the mind or the state of vibrations, so they can go as far as the vibrations allow us to perceive reality. Vibrations do not require any external forms to form. They are just there. When we feel these subtle vibrations, we are not seeing or feeling any external world – but an internal world is perceived. Going beyond the internal world is consciousness that does not move, is One, is infinite, is always there, has no character, has no form, has no space or time as Its identity.

This is what we need to realize about ourselves. Forget the rest of the story, the work, the tendencies, the feelings, and the intellect. These faculties are from God, so if deployment of these faculties is concerned, please deploy for the purpose of realizing this state of non motion. I am not at all answerable to motion and I am NOT the motion so I cannot be evaluated by those parameters. I do not miss out on anything and I am not born neither I die. I only am. And by just being, I am happy. Why should I require motion to state my happiness?
