Movement and Existence

 

280222: Shree: Movement and existence

Idea is the will of God - an opportunity to focus on a dimension of existence and make it a reality through forces, forms and situations. A human being is an idea (or a vibration that manifests as mind and body). this idea or vibration exists in consciousness and any such idea or vibration can lead to billion different forms or perceptions or tendencies or attitudes (human being). So looking at a human being means to look at the manifested idea. When someone refers to an idea, it means that it has a potential to manifest - or the creation of any thought/ imagination/ idea is bringing it to a state of manifestation (from vibration to a form). If one has an idea, it can become a form later on. So existence starts with idea or vibration and proceeds to force and then to form. This also means that first - we ourselves represent "ideas" or vibrations" and secondly, we also express the potential of creation and dissolution of ideas or states of existences. Our mind forgets nothing and can remember or create any state of existence or transform into anything - since it is an expression or receiver of God's potential. What I think, i become. I am already in a state of becoming (either as motion or as consciousness).

Charles Correa talks about his fascination of trains and the manner in which "movement" is planned, sequenced leading to spatial experiences and then comprehending a complete picture at the end of the journey - all done in his childhood while playing on train toys conceptualized as a game by Hornby. The same journey can be felt in a different way if the sequence gets changed. This is again seen as a generator of idea in some of his major projects in British Council in India; IUCAA; Gandhi Ashram; Bharat Bhavan Bhopal; Vidhan Sabha Bhopal; National Museum of Handicrafts New Delhi.

So the movement is a generator of experiences. Movement is physical, psychological and spiritual. Spiritually, the movement of thoughts and sequences makes different realities. Not only this movement creates forms it also create realities of perceptions. Consciousness is the same, but movement within It creates different human beings. Moving from point A to point B means to move physically, sense changes in environment and situations and comprehend cyclic pattern of events and our overall connect with cosmos. This can create "idea diagrams" or ideogram indicating movement, experience, psychological experience, feelings, environment, seasons, geography, history, changes and constancy (cosmos). So the perception of movement is a representation of state of existence. When we talk of architecture, it should indicate above ideas since movement is an integral part of experiencing architecture. Thus how one moves in architecture creates an existential reality for the person. It is a different matter that architecture is not required to create existence - it is already created by thought and even if there is no thought, then there is still a state of consciousness. So existence already is present as a reality; architecture modifies this experience of existence.

So existence has always been about movement caused by vibrations. yet existence is unconditional and does not depend on vibrations or making of forces and forms. Existence only is and against whose backdrop, one perceives movement.

This non movement, being unconditional, being purposeless, desireless and so on means being sacred.

Hari Om.
