Shree: Memory

Memory. Memory is based on vibrations or feeling of Existence as recorded by mind and body. In that sense, it is changeable and a construct. Since we perceive separation of self from other, there is a place for memory to sustain this belief. Depending on how one perceives the idea of “self” – the nature of memory or its constituents or parts or sequences or rate of change differs. As long as we are in motion from visible to vibrations, memory of existence will continue to exist. This also means that memory of past lives have also been recorded in our mental DNA and which inform our present perception. The inquiry is what is the memory of God? Memory is by vibrations (thoughts, feelings, decisions and actions). If this is changed to non motion – then that means God. Thus memory itself has to be transcended (a product of vibrations or of mind and body). If vibrations become still, there are no impressions, which means there is no memory, which means there is no attachment or a separate identity, which means all forces and forms do not seem to exist or are not recorded anywhere. So existence in motion, seems to record some forces and forms – else they are not there.

Memory also means our attachment to certain issues constructed by us – they may mean relationships or objects or people or past or future or work or career or money or anything that forms a relation. The question – what is the trigger behind this attachment? Desires. Why are those created? We have no answer, for had we known the answer, we would have not even been vibrating and perceiving life from human perspective! When I listen to my father, I realize that he is accessing the memory of his cherished moments of earlier life, his relationship, his perspectives of looking at life, me, his son, his wife, his concern for control, his compulsion to control, his belief in controlling in a given process, his expectations, his fears of forgetting and hence the urge to “set things” straight and many other subtle things. Did he say all this to me? No. this is about realization of things unsaid.

A human perception includes all this nebulous thinking and any kind of thought seems real enough to initiate an action of some kind. I too may also be entangled in some kind of thoughts, and some of them are so subtle that it will take effort to access them. So we operate based on vibrations. Life, relationships, objects, forces, forms are a crafted story of separation and they have temporary value and it should be realized why do we hang on or cling on and respond to “fear” that dwells within this story of change? And who is this “we”?

So it is about human perception of motion and identity or life. One can look at this as a problem to be solved, but can it be solved and is it a problem to be viewed or a mystery to be accepted?

All things, just as us, have a place here to exist and change and dissolve after a finite time. This is so, because their survival and our survival are one and the same. What action I perceive and undertake the effect is something I too will have to bear. So I do not claim any line of fixed action and there are million ways to perceive things as much as there are million people here on earth.

It is essentially One medium expressing Itself through many minds. No matter how much change we try to talk people out of it, we cling very hard to constructs at various levels. When does transformation and “letting go” happen? Only when you become ready for the process. When one let’s go off motion, God reveals.
