Shree: Nothing personal

200322: Shree: Nothing personal

Thoughts lead to a variety of realities. Thoughts are vibrations – a form of God or existence and essentially having a divine, unconditional, non judgmental quality. Body too is a form of vibration and visibility of any kind is also vibration of a different state. I perceive existence in some form of movement itself indicates a state of existence or a state of vibrations that remain interdependent on variables and which change with space and time. I am not the absolute reality, since I am only a construct defined by rounds of birth and death and since I am only apparent, so is everything else in this world of forces and forms. It is wrong to say that I ought to control events, whereas the situation is that I cannot even control my own self! We do not have any independent existence and the assumption of safeguarding independence causes a lot of stress and burden. To assume an independent stance creates friction and to become unconditional is the best antidote to this friction.

The main point, how much ever stressful it may seem as a form of resistance, is to know the mind. All knowledge is the mind itself and all absolute knowledge is transcending the mind. People call something of “fate” or of “choice” whereas the reality is not contained entirely by either and there might also be a ‘third’ in this binary. In other words, one never knows the complete picture of existence at any instant and to describe, evaluate or defend one’s position, we use such terms as “fate” or “choice”. Is my behavior an act of fate or by conscious choice?...one may be interested to dwell on this question for some time (nothing wrong in this) and one may even drop the question all together or transcend it all together (all a part of evolution I guess). The motive behind perception is either of defense or of transcendence. I set a routine, so I perceive order and I express my existence/ ego OR I have a routine, so I transcend all purposes. Therefore all relationships or situations or words (such as USA or India) may be used to defend one’s identity or to transcend one’s self.

What one says to whom and why and how and when may become an immaterial question and that is when freedom dawns. The freedom that there wasn’t really anything such as a situation and its intended or expected response and there was nobody out there to critique us and that incompleteness was a part of evolution itself and nothing absolutely true and all motions or manifestations and tendencies and voices and concerns and behaviors are signs of vibrations (a form of existence different from consciousness). So it was not personal at all.
