Shree: Remembrance

 

Shree: Remembrance

All is consciousness that appears or transforms into Divine Action called motion or vibrations – these create forces and forms which are interlinked, aware of each other, change and so on. It is always a singular “web” of vibrations and this web is called movement or motion (in which our mind + body is also created). Web is also a state of existence and a much higher and absolute state of Being is the One. More the separation from consciousness; more is the seeing of forms. Separation means identification with some vibrations. Those either reveal forces or forms.

Let this thought sink in us – that of a web. And the web is mysterious and therefore ”Divine” in the sense that its behavior is always changing, evolving, creating, conditional to everything and layered with subtle to gross signals. All is symbolic – whatever is done or created and from that notion, we too are symbolic representations of Divine Being.

A symbol means representation or expression or translation – hence it is something else than the absolute form. This “something else” is created by the property of consciousness and by its very nature; creation is temporary, incomplete and has all the potential of connecting and becoming anything else.

A question then comes to mind, why have all this ‘struggle’ of becoming free? What is the place of self or ego or imagination? We need not know. It seems this is the way things are. A thing or a form is not constant (neither is a relationship or a phenomenon or a situation). All is the nature of imagination or of creation or of forces or of vibrations or by presence of the One.

Who imagines? What is imagined? All such inquiries are meant to take us from a personal level of awareness to universal. It is not “I’ who does anything, but the creative force that works through me.

This requires to be remembered continuously. Remembrance is often mistaken as something of memory or a passive entity. Not so. Our entire body and mind is an expression of remembrance of vibrations. Since we operate through vibrations we remember whatever vibrations project. In the same way, it is hoped that by continuously remembering, thinking, feeling and acting through the focus of God, one eventually “becomes” God. It is required to shed everything that the vibrations create – which means to make vibrations steady. This will mean to work on vibrations intellectually, mindfully and through work. It is everywhere that the vibrations inform the making of phenomena – forces, mind, senses, body, and perception. Work at all levels.

So remembrance is memory/ action/ becoming/ Being.

Hari Om.

Shree: Becoming and Being.

Shree: Becoming and Being.

Truth and alignment of all dimensions of perception to reveal the Truth is a process of discovery.

What Truth means in terms of being the One and what alignment means is to be realized through one’s state of mind. Mind will bring about unique positions and at the same time realization of change, interdependence and the web. When one refers to “I”, it means all above things. I is not a point (in fact a “point” has no entity or no existence in motion); all is interdependent and changing so the motion or the web and the existence or feeling if “I” are interrelated and interdependent. The same vibration that comes from the source makes all these forces and forms – you, me and the sun.

Now the inquiry is to silence or make the vibrations steady, so that Divinity is “seen” or realized. There are no words to state Divinity. One can call it Existence but it still is a word that has a meaning. Divinity is a state of Existence, just as we exist in some state at present that one refers to as “motion”. This motion symbolizes and generates dilemma, confusion, contradiction, ego, struggle, effort, urges, and deployment of all dimensions. The opposite of motion is Divinity. The absence of motion is Divinity and hence if one looks at this relationship closely then we are saying that one is in some state – there is never a vacuum or a gap. The concept of dead is a relative stop in life, but vibrations continue in other plains too carrying the energy at some place or in some dimension ready to take on a new form.

In this life for human beings, engagement is required. All experiences are necessary to be observed, responded to evolve us into something better.

The external visibility is namesake or temporary. It is not the truth but something relative and it is relative to such an extent that all becomes a construct and a definite stable point of any concept seems illusive. On what basis is any point to be considered as a permanent anchor? Since there isn’t any, we have imagination, past, future, change dependence, web and so on. I do not think it is difficult to accept this situation unless of course one is hopelessly clinging to a linear logical way of looking at things.

If one considers one’s existence informed by past, present and future and even past momentums and vibrations and so on; where is anything stable and is anything real enough to be permanent?! So all of what we were believing and doing – is all that false?! Leave the question in that state and do not attempt to come to any conclusion!

The answer gets revealed and in this revelation, I believe, there isn’t something as true or false or A v/s B or a good v/s better choice. It is all about becoming and being.

Hari Om.

Shree: Align

Shree: Align

All is unknown – the process of perception, its unfolding, responses and what becomes eventually as a matter of vibrations – from invisibility to visibility and invisibility again. All is His doing; His domain; His potential and our craze to control this phenomenon is ridiculously out of place. There may be a reason for this ridiculousness too; and perhaps that is what leads to realization. Accept the situation as we are and then there is a choice for realization. Accept who we are as beings and then there is a chance for expansion.

In this entire journey there is only trust and patience and effort without conditions. Since we operate at many levels from vibrations to forces to forms (intellect and feelings and a physical body) the alignment of all such dimensions is required. In other words, responses in all such dimensions mean different and they will have to be done. Working only intellectually without bothering what happens to feelings or body cannot lead to realization and so is the case with other dimensions. This means nothing can be seen as compartments and there may be interrelationships and layering among these dimensions. One may start from any dimension (whatever may be most natural for a person to initiate action) but he/she will have to realize the relationship of his/her start point with all  dimensions subsequently and again how those contribute to his/her preferred mode of action. Thus if an action is taken intellectually it has to be seen through feelings and body too, else there may be logic but there may also be pain. If there is discord of any kind (pain especially) it means the alignment has not yet occurred.  These differences are true in us as well as other forms too. I may think through intellect and other may be thinking through feelings and the right action only materializes when all such differences align, else one will sense some struggle. In design, we say as part to whole and to and fro movement or a sphere. This may also mean a rhizome. And this may also mean that we are always in the web of vibrations and not a linear sequence. Philosophically, “logic” or the role of “intellect” means to align.

Since this is the case, the real liberation occurs by working through the web and not assuming that all is merely a linear logic. The web is so dense and subtle at places that what action triggers what effects is also unknown and this requires acceptance and patience – what gets manifested by the deeds one commits. As far as what one can perceive in existence, three steps are recommended to be taken, those being duty + purity of soul + remembrance of God. The effect of these three steps is guaranteed to cleanse us and align the dimensions to reveal Divinity in us. Architecture dissolves when experience is felt strongly. In the same way the effect of alignment means to dissolve all dimensions from their individual pulls and to reveal steadiness or a blissful state.

Hari Om.

Struggle and liberation; isolation and expansion; many and the One; non changeable + infinite + subtle + unperceivable + blissful and vibrations + particular + movement + temporary + changing + wavering + creation + visibility.

Generally we realize that above characteristics define our existence and we ping pong between the two extremes. Existence is about vibrations and that means billion potentials of creation and action and being forces and forms. What is seen and through what it is seen and by what it gets perceived (or synthesized) is all a matter of vibrations. Hence all perception, their questions and responses and compulsions come from this phenomenon or relationship. This something depends on the web and how we interact with the web. If I were to know the basis of my own construct or imagination or perception – it is impossible and it will take me many lives previously. And in the same way, the basis of any phenomenon does not have any definite start point and this means – that not only the start point reveals a web of everything but it is also the will of God.  

Relationship is a good word here since it summarizes everything – a web and a rhizome. We are everything at the moment and we become something at a moment - the Will of God, the Creator.

All perception means that we think it is we who need to respond to things and hence we “do” things and it becomes an expectation regarding how things ought to manifest. This is an assumption that gives ‘pain’ in return and lesson needs to be learnt many times till the true nature of Existence is revealed within us.

Words of manifestation, becoming, revealing are important since they assure one that things will happen and that trust is required as far as existential matters are concerned. Existential matters obviously mean everything! The moment expectation and ego and purpose is dropped, things become freer to be done. But this idea of dropping is not that simple, neither is ‘lifting’ or living up to the motion. We have not been made in a single moment and countless number of impressions and condensations and layering have all been fluidly added to make up a mind and a body. Therefore it is natural that the reverse process of expansion and dissolving all layers will require enormous time. How this happens is a mystery since all things cannot be known or predicted or even accessed.

First of all Existence happens as motion or vibrations and hence it is a dynamic affair. Secondly our efforts lead to some effect internally that we may not be aware of but will subsequently erupt as our own anger or pain or some future situation that we may have absolutely no clue about. As long as there is ‘we’ or ‘our’ we have pain and ego and many other things. Thinking on it one may realize that the entire process of being engaged is one of God and not of some mortal and temporary form.

However rejection or avoidance cannot be a response - anything about motion will lead to motion itself (avoidance included). The action of engagement is required taking into account the role of God’s will. Realistically the motion is temporary and we will only be blissful only when the One is known. Then all fears will melt, all kinds of egos will melt, all defenses will go away, all avoidance will melt.

Trust this process.

Hari Om.

Shree: Wake Up

 

Shree: Wake Up

Shree is Potential, absolute and One. All blissful and unconditional. This is to be realized from the way in which we perceive things or the manner in which vibrations occur and they make us and we dissolve later. The cause behind all of this is the Lord.

The process of internalization and externalization (and even transformation) takes place through vibrations, sequences and forces and forms. Forms getting decoded as pure consciousness and consciousness appearing as forms. So behind everything and every connection and every condition, if understood, is the Lord. Therefore, why should we then base our responses on motion or conditions? Are we the motion? We think we are separate from motion, but the nature of motion acts equally on all phenomena and hence motion is perceived only when we are present, else it has no existence in that way. Thus existence has two dimensions for us – motion and absolute One. All comes from the Lord and hence the origin of all is Divine and whatever exists in this world of motion is Divine.

Existence is a property of being something; of creation; of change; of dissolution; of potential; of vibrations; of perception and so on. Fundamentally motion has a property of movement or vibration (hence impermanence and hence visibility and being specific). It is obvious that we do not know the Truth (or cannot see from body or mind) and since we are in motion, we are required to act or vibrate or evolve or transform into something.

The basis of all teachings is realization of a state of One and that can happen by making the mind steady. Steadiness is a long process, perhaps very mysterious and unknown and to be trusted. In this journey all sorts of experiences will come and go and those will be the learning for making the mind steady and outgrow them. The mind will wander, have dilemmas, feel contradictions, encounter pain, become fearful or suspicious – all of this is necessary, although we may never  be sure where is all of this leading to?

The inquiry is – should we be sure of vibrations, if they keep changing? This means that the overall destination of Godliness should be accepted at present, the journey to be undertaken, the experiences to be encountered honestly and transformation to be observed. This is all that we can do. Wake up to the journey of realization.

Accept that we are alone and we have egos. Accept that preparation is also a defense. Accept that we may be wrong despite our best intentions and accept that we cannot communicate intricate complex details of how a decision is arrived to another person, since he/she sees it with his/her lens. Accept that engagement will be required, accept that pain will be inevitable, accept that everything requires to be encountered, accept that through all of this, steadiness will occur.

Hari Om.

 

Shree: to meet God.

 

Shree: to meet God.

there are many thoughts that are required to be churned out. thoughts are evolving, getting created, endorse perception, make us perceive existence - all coming from vibrations or the potential of consciousness. the term potential can also mean presence, absoluteness, blissfulness, eternal and the One.

as long as we remain human, or in motion, the nature of motion informs our perception (or our perception only catches motion as forces and forms). hence the presence of certain "vibrations" or "perceptions" depends on certain state of existence and is not absolute. philosophically, all is God's Will perceived as motion yet we are to realize this.

pursuit of blissfulness is unconditional and is not dependent on any changeable aspect of existence say forces or form or even vibrations. if the idea is to predict and control vibrations then one is grossly mistaken! since we ourselves are vibrations how can we even expect our internal vibrations to be predictable and controlled?! there are nations who have gone all the way to control vibrations (desires) and external conditions - and have failed miserably, but we do not learn unfortunately. if the idea of progress equals quenching of desires then there is no definite end to this pursuit. if the idea of progress is individualism and increased fragmentation for micro control, then we isolate ourselves still further, make things highly complex, become highly production oriented, and become miserable in the end. it is a long lost game. developed nations have taken this erroneous path. there are so many conditions to live happy!...how unhappy is this scenario...as if for happiness conditions require fulfillment! it is a direct attack on Existence of God.

reversely, being unconditional means to transcend motion and therefore make the mind still. making mind still is probably an alien concept to developed nations. but we have examples here that the greatest landscape experience is a banyan tree and need not be a "garden". in short, the mindscape is more important inquiry than the external determinants for the eastern philosophies.

the whole idea of difference and ego and body is extremely wrong and misleading in fact, the whole idea of performance and proof and justification and explanation is extremely wrong.

the turmoil has to be resolved internally and many times, it cannot be stated. the moment something deep within is expressed, it gets translated. there are extremely difficult conversations that need to be done. many times i feel that it is only about observation and facing vibrations as they appear. whether 'i' say something or do something or when and where and how and why - is it important or just incidental? and it is most definitely incidental and illusionary. there is nothing in here that is authentic except for Existence. so the question of blame or proof or anything just does not arise and need not be even entertained or identified with.

what will happen will happen and what will not, will not. and whatever happens is for our own good, so we finally meet God.

Hari Om.

Shree: What next?

 

Shree: What next?

दृश्य – world; senses; perception is all creation of God or consciousness. It is the property (स्वाभाव/ धर्म) of consciousness to do so. This property is also called as Potential or Action (शक्ति). All that happens, interconnects, depends, perceived, responded and so on is by this Action or Potential of Becoming. Herein there is a movement of something getting created (visible) and that creation changing and dissolving again into the One medium. In this journey, we become party to (or we are made and we go or dissolve) and it is the natural thing to happen, since it is a default property. Hence creation or forms and interdependence and dilemma and host of other vibrations are natural to erupt and all of them come from God – or He is the only Truth about Existence and the rest of vibrations are His play. Inquiry of why, how, where, when, what maybe a specific trait of human mind but that is all there is to it. We are born with this trait and hence we have a choice by the same capacity given to us – we fight or we transcend. I am not sure if this choice is present for all other forms (since it is a relative question) but somehow it is given to us or perhaps this capacity makes us human.

Awareness of the One (which is also a process of becoming subtle and universal) is important since it makes us blissful and less fearful of changes that occur. The measure of change should evolve from body to mind to intellect to consciousness. Therefore, fear or anger is a subset of perception – how do we choose to perceive existence? Yet this inquiry need not pinch or cause a lot of self botheration or ridicule or self criticism, else the delight of life may get compromised. Delight is in experiencing the dilemma and the confusion that occurs and to be regarded as learning to become pure consciousness. It need not be personal (or it may be personal taking one to universal truth).

What is important after all? Or what is simple and natural? Experience of love is most essential – the external  changes then do not matter at all – the external form of anything and the analysis does not matter. We have become so much conditioned that we are very stingy in giving love. And that is a sign of mistrust on the Creator.

There is a lot of learning that is required. Anybody who says that he or she knows all and he is the best (for whatever reasons) is a fool, to say the least. Another question that crops up is why should this inquiry take root in ‘me’ today (or in this life)? The probable interpretation of this maybe that the impressions of previous lives and assumptions have finally created a situation where the response of defense, evaluation, anger, avoidance does not offer a full proof solution and hence the inquiry of “what next”?

All this while, the inquiry, it seems, may have been inevitable and the current situation therefore created. In the same way, how the current situation of awareness and dilemma would subsequently lead to newer perceptions and bring the realization of One closer is again to be trusted. Trust hence changes its nature. It starts with confusion and defense, and then leads to a mix of dilemma and effort to transcend and finally being grounded in the One. This transformation may take many lives or evolution of vibrations.

Hari Om.

Shree: philosophical journey

 

Shree: philosophical journey

all is existence that we feel as vibrations - potential of being (either as consciousness or as motion) and hence it is a construct. all that is seen or acted on or lived or thought or felt is by the nature of Existence and hence there is movement, force, forms, web and so on.

pressure is ridiculous. we are compelled to respond and this compulsion is a self made pressure - conditioned, responding to variables or to change or to perception. Just as a person perhaps may not sit quite without referring to a mobile and its signals, we do not sit quiet unless there is creation of forms for which we are required to respond. the solution so invented does not stop this engagement but continuous in some direction. thus engagement and action is required. action may make us more bounded or liberate us - both of these things should be done through the measure of perception.

i am not here to prove or justify or even say anything because the moment something is imagined and said outside - an ego develops or an attachment with a vibration develops. so there may be pain, there maybe an answer to it but there is no need to keep harping about the nature of pain and the discovery to overcome the same! keep it to the self (and the self means the entire fabric). whether a thing is said "outside" whether a situation or an event takes place "outside" is immaterial for control or soul. even if things happen internally, they still create perception and attachment. thus God knows everything. there is no place to hide or any thing to be avoided! the internal vibrations are required to become calm so that consciousness is felt. therefore what are vibrations or force or body is a philosophical journey and not the one of conditions of life.

Hari Om.

Shree: Feeling

Shree: Feeling

Experiences are created for us to go beyond. Unless that destination is reached, the present moment cannot be surpassed. The moment and its experience were required for vibrations to become calm. Therefore the nature of action changes – from compulsion to engagement to transcendence or steadiness. Even if all the truth is known from philosophical texts; these have arrived for those people whose minds have evolved to grasp them. For us, we still have to discover the same principles from our unique positions or situations. Principle is the “same” which means that countless number of pathways can discover it or the same principle creates countless variety of forms. Situation is caused by vibrations – a potential of making forces and forms and all such forms are interlinked in a single thread of consciousness.

We live by the principle of motion (change, web, constructs, perception, conditions and so on). No matter what a person is; he/she expresses the same principle. And hence all of us have egos – big or small is relative but it creates a distortion of reality. Situation is a construct and there is no single way of looking at it since what is authentic or absolute is only the One medium.

There is no way of knowing and even expecting that a current existential position will give us a total picture and this should be calmly accepted. This acceptance can happen if one knows from where creation is coming and how things shape us and change us and dissolve us. What I say or feel is immaterial to reality since there is no other! Saying or feeling is conditioned to everything that is relative and hence to expect peace or connection may not be that simple.

If one ought to say anything or do anything or feel anything; one is doing all those things beyond any forms or forces. However doing or thinking or feeling beyond forms means to perceive consciousness. Things understood and done in the world of motion are not applicable for consciousness. Hence one feels or does or thinks, but not for a situation – only for absolute Existence.

Hari Om.

Shree: Layering

 

Shree: Layering

As vibrations there is separation/ becoming something/ conditions/ ego/ mind + body. The signals that are caught, perceived, made are comprehensively create an “object” or phenomenon of “body” or a body can exist only in catching or creating certain signals of manifestation that we call as forms, situations, people, relationships, space and time. Hence body is not an object – it is a phenomenon of particular nature of vibrations that create or entertain perceptions of a particular kind.

Hence the body is actually a state of existence that will only exist as long as the mind endorses it or projects a wavering tendency. It may be seen as clear compartments, but philosophically subtle vibrations create a mind that creates a body. All these present “layering” of states of vibrations and hence existence may be referred as “layering” of states. One can peel of layers or go deep down any of the layers. As one peels of the layers, one “becomes” that perception which that layer creates. Hence going deep down means to transform the self and to dissolve the body, dissolve the mind and finally dissolve vibrations. Or in other words – to make the mind still.

It will be noted here that what we call “mind” is a complex layering of past, present, future imaginations, vibrations, forces, forms and so on. Hence it is a “web” of things and not a compartmentalized region called as “mind”. Thus to work on the self (or construct of motion/ existence) means to work on the web and not a single region of mind. This “working” does not mean “control” of the web for we are only constructs or illusions born from the Absolute One.

To work means to realize Him. All Existence and motion is Divine Action. We work to realize this reality.

Hari Om.

Shree: Let things be.

 

Shree: Let things be.

what we see or perceive as movement or as some force or a form is not rue - in the sense that remains conditioned to many variables and all of this creates temporary connections of forces and forms that change or evolve into something. hence any force or a form indicates change, interdependence, conditions, awareness. form or a thought or feelings are therefore not static and no matter what is decided or done, things come and go or evolve or change. this happening or creation of things is called the Will of God. thus perhaps vibrations are already present as a property of consciousness that get connected to make some force and some form - which is also what makes us. the inquiry is about what is real and what are we made of and who are we? all answers have only one common source as their basis of becoming.

not only vibrations are subtle but maybe some number of billion impressions on them make a human being. reversely the same number of appropriate billion impressions make a change and make us God. thus things about God are required to be practiced many times without our judgment or ego or expectation or fear. the process of concentrating is limiting and also liberating.

we are required to make a choice. i can continue to get entangled as anger or any form of emotion or i can transcend all. why does anger develop? and from what and why and where and when? all is a construct or a made up sequence. why are we continuously running and doing multiple things? what are we hoping to do or get? there is no reason for any motion or anger to erupt but that does not mean suppressing any of these. in order to transcend, the first step is to accept, observe and embrace those feelings. having completely accepted the dilemma and the confusion that exists or is created by us, we are required to become steady. this is a word - it does not guarantee anything for sure. and this is existence. the guarantee is only about God or consciousness as eternal absolute being - all other things change, and come and go.

things happen only when they are required. we can take the effort of being calm and attributing to the Lord and in this process dilemma, confusion, pain is inevitable. yet the trust needs to persist.

on what basis are we so deterministic of things and consider as our own? on what basis do we own any right on motion or force or form? all is His Will so let go of all expectations and behaviour. we may be terribly wrong and incomplete and all is yet ok to live and love. there is no need to feel guilty or fearful or angry or compete. there is only God.

Hari Om.

Shree: Discussion for what?

 

Shree: Discussion for what?

Discussion – what does it lead to? What happens will happen. Who did something for what and when and how and why – this cycle is endless. Why a situation is in a particular way is endless. Why is creation in some way, why motion exists, why is perception – all is a matter of loop – a wall within which we are required to take action. Action never stops and it will demand intent from us leading to a momentum and further build up of perception.

As long as forms or forces are seen or perceived, there is a loop or vibration within us. To think in terms of situations leads to disappointment or a short lived happiness. To think of a person or a body or feelings or intellect leads to disappointment. Rejection also does not solve the problem of what goes within us.

The idea is to merge vibrations into become absolutely still and only engage as consciousness would. The application of such a position or intent is universal and profound – for it is this “seed” that makes the entire cosmos. Hence if thinking is required, then it should access consciousness and from that depth an action should materialize. The purpose of action or existence is to become consciousness.

Hari Om.

Shree: Maths

 

Shree: Maths

Things will be revealed only when time ‘becomes appropriate for our consciousness’. Rest in peace that all is taken care of and all the experiences we have at present are due to the nature of perception we call as being human. Critically if one sees the state of affairs, the inquiry is to realize and be at peace for our own situation of existence. Learning to dwell as a human being in existential reality is important, else we keep doubting and fearing and there is no end to this malaise.

Point is dwelling “in” or dwelling “as” still offers a glimpse of the web – in reality there is no start or end point or any tree having connections. All is a product of consciousness and as vibrations we experience forces and forms and change and connections – either as rhizome or as a tree or sometimes this or sometimes that and whatever is perceived at a moment, one imagines existence in that manner. This is the wavering mind and many times wavering quality is spoken as a limitation and also having the capacity to align and transcend.

Any new thing that is encountered has a seed of change in some way (faster or slower; bigger or smaller; imagination) and it projects a decision to be taken – what do you do about the new thing? And then the relationship of that new thing and the self begins to be made. And perhaps we are saying that the self and the new thing are one and the same. In a way the journey is of removing the identification of self from any thing of change or relationship – which means to be established thoroughly as only a pure Being.

Removal of things cannot happen by force and is disastrous intellectually. The idea is to make change redundant or surpass change of any kind or surpass a vibration – which means to make the mind still. This may look as removal but it means transcendence and herein lies the difference in the approach of how the Western mind sees philosophy as a removal of relationships and the Eastern mind considers philosophy as transcendental process. The western mind may therefore speak of annihilation of everything and / or a reductionist approach and the eastern mind indicates the expansion of the limited mind to engulf all vibrations and become universally connected and to dissolve any fabricated distinction of you and me. This approach gives “bliss”. However there is still confusion if the eastern mind means “additions” of everything or “subtractions” of all unwanted things and perhaps many sub strands indicate such processes. But the agreement is that all strands of thought still cannot say with certainty what transcendence should be but the realization is known – to become the One. Hence it does not even say to take a position. And hence in a true sense it is a discovery as any form ought to transcend its own imposed barriers by self practice.

From the view point of philosophy (or the experience of philosophy), the nature of existence is one of change, wherein forms come and go (or they get created out of One absolute medium). Thus our own journey is not a default thing of a human being that perceives forms in absolute manner, but it ought to lead to evolution of perception itself to dissolve the body + mind vibrations. Movement is a function of perception/ vibration. When this realization is known, then the way of seeing things differs. Change may no longer bother us and we do not so much harp about a start point – for the issue of start and a sequence is a matter of motion – not of consciousness.

All great people regardless of any discipline related to action or feelings or intellect realize the source of all phenomena. To go “back” to the source or the “origin” means to realize ground “zero” wherein potential or pure inspiration exists. What triggers this journey and why people undertake this journey depends on their burning desire.

In this search, architecturally I can name Hassan Fathy, Antonio Gaudi, Louis Kahn, Tadao Ando….

Louis Khan says that all architecture should generate a mood of learning + meeting + being and this maybe his way of transcending contexts. What process makes one transcend contexts is important to consider.

Finally there is no maths here or logic here in a limited sense of the word. All things that get aligned to transcend may mean logic or maths. Therefore “maths” is unique to a person! It cannot be repeated and it cannot be translated and it cannot be shared! To each his own maths!

Shree: Thoughts from the web

 

Shree: Thoughts from the web

What comes first – the egg or the chicken? This is the nature of motion. There is no start point or one sequence or a definite end point and perhaps the start point is only a link in an endless or a repetitive set of events. At the same time, the egg comes from where? And the egg becomes the chicken one day who lays the egg again! So the egg has a potential of becoming a chicken who also has the seed of becoming an egg which is also embedded with the seed of becoming a chicken! So the “seed” grows and changes and evolves and repeats and is the one fundamental substance behind everything of motion. Can the seed be seen or perceived? Definitely not visually. But if it is not visually present, does it mean it does not exist?! Then what is “existence”? Ss it a form or a force of change or vibration or only Being? And one can “see” a “form”, but how to feel a force and vibration and Being? So is the “form” real or is it the force or a vibration or consciousness? If a form vanishes or dissolves, does it mean anything as an “end” or will it reappear in a different way somewhere else and does the vanishing mean anything to the web? So this coming and going of forms – does it make any difference to the seed or the ocean or the medium of One?

In the same way, we see some extinct species kept in a museum. These are fossils or some “forms” existing at some place and at some time under some conditions. People may say why to study these? The fundamental question herein is – why is past regarded to be considered? The question is equally applicable for any sort of historical inquiry of any phenomenon. History is absolutely irrelevant for those who only seem to concentrate on the “formal” aspects of phenomenon. To those who concentrate on tendencies, forces, influences, variables, connections, history will “repeat itself in a new way” and the issues will appear to be the same – hence history becomes a gateway to know our contemporary issues and in that sense, history becomes “alive”. The study of forms is irrelevant if it does not unlock the doors to forces or connections and consciousness. Again seen in a reverse way, “something creates” a form in a given fabric of space and time. Therefore, this “something” is important and perhaps remains constant in eternity creating or manufacturing a web of motion that appear as forces and forms.

Related to above thoughts is our tendency of choosing the “best” out of everything with the hope that things will be resolved and stability will be achieved. This answer is to be discovered for there are many dimensions to this approach. If choosing is from forces or forms then the output is disappointment. If choosing is to sieve out the irrelevant aspects of change and focusing on stable eternal medium, then the result is transformation.

Sometimes perhaps English looks too harsh a language to feel very subtle things. Engagement is about signals that one wishes to perceive or generate and that becomes the basis of creating situations. If a particular kind of situation seems to appear again and again, then it points to the manner of engaging with them. There is nothing like “situations” and “engagement” and “us” and how this relationship gets created and from whom and where and when and why. It is only a perception of many things wherein all these things are interrelated. At once there is outside, inside and a connection between these two phenomena. This is true for all sorts of motion. Forms (including us) come and go but the underlying nature of vibrations remains the same for all – in that we make categories of body, mindfulness and the Soul. All is vibration (or becoming) and as long as we feel a body, it means our perception is guided by that measure. In other words, the existence of a “body” is notional or a construct and is not real in absolute sense. Notional means constructed out of many variables, sequences, momentum, interrelated with a web, changing, coming from consciousness to vibrations to force and form. This means it will forever “change” depending on vibrations of the web.

What is vibration? It is a potential of becoming anything and it exists throughout the medium of consciousness. So what gets “seen” or “perceived” by “what entity” is one web of existence. This is the truth.

There is only one absolute truth that exists without any change which we symbolize as consciousness or God. Being the One means to become steady and the more this takes place within, the more Divine character one transforms into.

To uncover variables of all kinds is an impossible task of any dimension of motion – intellect to feelings to action. YET we are perfect as existence. Partial truth or incompleteness is not an indicator of our divine potential. It is not the task of uncovering variables or sequencing them and defining some time and space that offers peace or stability. To become stable, one has to make consciousness as a reality.

Shree: All filled up

 

Shree: All filled up

vacuum does not exist. existence is only as absolute being (as the One) or as relative motion perceiving many forms. it is upto me what should be my experience of existence. existence already "is" eternal and hence there was no time or space when i was not there (or when vibrations or consciousness was not there). "i" refers to a web of consciousness getting converted as vibrations, forces and forms and as this happens, the one medium is perceived as more and more - as many with some definite visibility. this is conversion of subtle absolute truth (non changing state) to a relative truth of many and visibility.

the role of the intellect is to retrace these steps as an act of remembrance and becoming and this happens only through perception or motion. seeing or perceiving represents a state of movement that we have become. one can also "see" things in another state depending on the nature of the mind or vibration. hence motion or sense is not the phenomenon  - the complete phenomenon is about vibrations and mind. currently we cannot see vibrations, for that requires going within and withdrawing from outside signals.

this is the crux of the issue. "i" do not exist as motion. the real nature is about consciousness that one ought to realize and become. i do not know if all this thinking and writing will benefit in some way but it would. whether that results in change of behaviour or decisions to be taken or quality of life or anything is best left to God.

Shree: change

 

Shree: change

change is perceived by our state of mind. because we concentrate on forms, body, forces, vibrations, change gets perceived or caught and then there is an urge to control out of "fear". this fear or vibration is prevalent everywhere as motion or creation and one thing is connected to another so one does not really know the intent behind what one sees or does and one ends in a loop of actions. where does it really begin in absolute sense? it is like asking if illusion is "real"?! there is connectedness and change and only One medium. change is not the problem here - it is a property as perceived by a form. and then a form too is a web of motion that is notional and will change (become visible and dissolve eventually). hence why be obsessed with permanence and identity? ego is very deep down and subtle and it is there one has to reach. this means going inwards and not relying on motion. motion comes to reality through senses (body) and mind and vibrations - else it is NOT there. hence to withdraw the senses becomes the first step to go inwards and become unconditionally blissful. withdrawing is a process - as one withdraws, one then sees forces and then vibrations and then consciousness. by each step of withdrawal, motion changes. remembering God is so necessary because it has to transform us internally. change is the language of motion as a dimension of divine existence. all things happen because of Him - absolutely everything.

many things are unknown and that need not become bothersome to us. we are in a complete state of unknown and fear is generated only if this unknown quality is not felt or understood or trusted by us. hence fear is a state of mind which also is a state of existence. fear can go away if we learn to trust Existence more and more and we sense the presence of the One.

Hari Om.

Shree: Logical

 

Shree: Logical

thinking happens in the web of vibrations - as motion. this motion starts with subtle vibrations common to all, moving to forces common to some limited forms and moving to body specific to only one form. as we become more specific in forms/ visibility, we perceive "many other" forms and forces different from us. hence if you see, being specific means getting excluded from a larger fabric of reality; encountering more movement and feeling a lot of turmoil and the urge to act and guard one's separation. reversely, the more one feels a connect with a universal Truth, one's actions with reference to specific identity no longer exists and there is no specific purpose or motive for "an action". hence one becomes "unconditional" as one connects with cosmos. therefore all words mean differently as the quality of our connection gets altered. "action" as a concept means different for an individual as compared to universal Truth. Seers suggest that all of Existence is "Divine Action".

in the same way, therefore, a "form" or a "web" or "motion" or "existence" means different for an individual as compared to the One.

currently for "us" forms are real enough to affect us deeply and we are always urged to respond. but for the One, perhaps forms do not appear or become irrelevant to even consider or materialize or manifest.

our current "thinking" is trapped in the concept of being an individual, so it will only go to some extent and not beyond. therefore, what is "seen or perceived" as forms and the decisions we take are all shortsighted and illogical, no matter how much ever we may think they were done correctly. in the same way, if "thinking" is to be deployed for the right purpose, then it is to transform the nature of thinking itself from individual to universal. this is a conscious effort of merging the self with the One and this will have to be done irrespective of the time or space or relationships or situations befalling the person.

hence the body or mind is not "absolutely real" - it is a construct that makes such entities appear, change and go.

architecturally, phenomenological ideas suggest that if a profound spatial experience is created, then the "visible elements of architecture" just "vanish" (meaning they become irrelevant to the creation of experience of the Whole). hence architecture is the creator of experience - i can either highlight the elements (at the cost of hampering the universal connect) or i can arrange the elements in such a way that only the universal connect gets established and all other elemental things fade away in the background.

which is more necessary then? is it the harping on the visual or architectonic dimension of architecture or experiential? visual means nothing in fact. it is the experience that is triggered within that is the prime concern of architecture. experience comes first and then the elements.

Shree: internalization

 

Shree: internalization

engagement is to let things be. one never knows for sure how things internalize, stir something, connections made, something is remembered and is again externalized....it happens naturally and letting Existence (time and Space) take over every moment. there is no single moment or a situation or a sequence that makes things 'perfect' or gives a high moment or assumes to be static. freedom and bliss are everywhere and they are the only one thing that are relevant and true to Existence - all others come from a wavering mind and are constructed to fulfill some need of imperfection. by doing something, saying something one does not become fulfilled or completed or satisfied. to feel a sense of rest means to expect control, defined sequence, start point, defined conclusion, and no change in anything....how is that possible?!

i think the problem lies in non acceptance of who we really are and what does it mean to just Exist without any conditions.  if it is accepted or realized what Existence means, then all things should appear like calming music. things happen, we happen, responses happen, awareness happens, evolution happens and so on. it is good that not all things are known or can be predicted - this gives a lot of scope for internalization to happen in its own accord. and this is the beauty of Existence - it only IS there without any conditions and nothing can even surpass It or even define It! Internalization is a magical thing that transcends all motion and this is a proof of what sort of medium is at the core of our relative existence. our existence has absolutely no validity and meaning without this core. therefore become the core. become free.

Hari Om.

Shree: Being the One

 

Shree: Being the One

all constructs are only illusions - intellect included. all motions, forms, forces, vibrations generate or create forms that change and are aware (or connected) as a web of things. It is only One medium appearing as many, and as it appears and takes forms, there is an inner compulsion to do something about change. however there is nothing cause and effect in this (in a linear way) - when one understands a "web" of causes and effects; the start point, middle and end are varying and "constructed" as one "imagines" it. so there is nothing absolutely true in our perception, observation, inference, response etc. Now this can be problematic to some and it can also free some from the burden of confirmation and production and evaluation and judgments.

the core concept is of Existence and its property of "becoming anything". this becoming happens because of vibrations and the visible nature of things we see or become is an output of this property. so the mountain or the river or the sun has come from this same property of making itself perceivable within the web and so have i.

when we live in this state of motion, we make "forms" out of intangible concepts  - we are compelled to give something a form so that it can be spoken about, talked about, discussed, debated, evaluated, connected and so on. but who generates the form? and is there anything as a single pointed "who"? therefore all motion seems to just happen out of the property of Existence or consciousness. thus whatever we see or do or say (believing that there is an individual "me") is some notion that we hold on to. we need to go beyond this desperation and become calm from within.

in this process, we will see subtle layers of the web, for which, there will not be any words to express or share but one will understand that all differences represent the same One.

Hari Om.

vibrations leading to tendencies and forms are a construct - they do not mean anything personally and that is not what 'defines' anything about perception or mind or body. we think, and this thinking majorly comes from motion or a body and senses and how we interpret these changing and connected web signals. all will be seen that things from outside to body to mind to vibrations to consciousness are connected/ related and finally actually the One.

we over think and we unnecessarily think to express motion. it compels us to perform. we then "talk too much" defending whatever we think or feel within us and we also talk not even knowing the subtle vibrations that exist within us or which make us. it is not only what is said that is a problem of the ego, but the urge to "keep running or vibrating" within, which is a greater problem. this running and vibrating does all sorts of tricks of imagination  - so much so - that we will do anything to justify our perceived actions without even blinking an eye that there are billion other perspectives for the same scenario and what we see is only a limited construct of the Truth. this also suggests that a situation is what you believe it - whereas each form creates its own situation based on its nature. logically that will mean that there is no such absolute situation in motion and there may be a process to go beyond this limited and relative idea of situation, wherein we tend to get dragged. the answer to this is not to avoid any action and neither to initiate control over anything - both lead to the same disastrous results of continuing the loop of engagement.

the answer is to go inwards and reach a stage of existence that does not feel the need to become visible! It is blissful in its own self.

Shree: preparation?

 

Shree: preparation?

we need not prepare for anything since i am not defined by preparation (or protection of ego). ego is an illusion, just as any vibration and absolute Existence is always there even if creation or manifestation is not there. creation need NOT exist and does NOT complete consciousness. creation is a construct, so any vibration or a thought or any idea is changeable, interdependent and NOT absolute in itself. in fact the entire notion of start point, linearity, control, perception, body, mind, vibrations stems from a state of mind. thus nothing is same, or static and thus "many forms" get perceived from the One Source. visibility is a state of mind that perceives a web of change and forms. vibration is a function of existence. or in other words we say that a "thing" exists because it "vibrates". anything that does not vibrate, does not exist. there is no place in our universe where a spot of non existence remains. Existence can vibrate as being absolute, eternal, truth, non changeable, infinite, One....or it can vibrate as being in motion and creating a "web" of forces and forms. it is only One medium for all purposes.

coming back to us, vibration is very subtle and hence whatever we may think, it is a sequence of web and we keep getting annoyed by changes and impermanence and being alone. things or the web vibrates, so it will change, so mind and body will dissolve and remerge as something else. this is a given.

so the issue is to silence the "web" wherein we are connected. we represent a web and not a point and hence our actions are required to be thought about in clarity and the web  is not our enemy but our mindset itself. despite this, many things are unknown and many things we simply cannot know. that should not bother us. what persona we have, tendencies, attitudes are only constructed - props if you may - but this is also not ours in absolute sense. Existence only is. i do not know why there is anger or any  vibration for  that matter. but that is what seems to be and we are dragged by these vibrations. who knows the depth of visible forms? who creates them? who perceives them? how are these perceived? why is there pain? and why is there anchoring and defense? why is there compulsion to be? what annoys us? why?

Become steady.

Hari Om.

Shree: Ocean

 

Shree: Ocean

Despite whatever we do, there is a subtle level of ego or the idea of separation that is embedded deep within us. The output of this existence of ego or vibrations is that we perceive life of forms that come and go, remain interdependent on us and they change. Past is imagination and so is future – but what about the “present”? If past and future are imaginations, then the present is also an imagination itself – a construct that changes and vibrates and generates forms. The reality or existence of life or of present or of forms is a direct expression of our state of vibrations (or state of our existence). The control of external events or situations (or more appropriately our response or intent of our thoughts on situations) is the key factor in our vibration.

Control is a neutral word – is it for ego or for transcendence is the key. All vibrations – are they for ego enhancement or dissolution of ego and hence transcendence?

And how does one even make such a choice?! This is a very interesting question, for which there is no logical answer but is based completely on trust. There is an inheritance of wisdom which suggests that ego believes in separation Or illusion and that is the lens with which everything else is defined. Our birth is also an aspect of ego, else we wouldn’t have been born and there are countless subtle factors and previous momentum that combine to create mind and body. Hence to be born and to die represents a state of our existence – perhaps ego being the chief dimension. Now if this dimension vanishes, then our imagination or memory or perception or existence will change.

Yet again, ego is a loaded term. When one refers that ego should vanish, it is not that simple since the journey will reveal that it will make one consider forces, relationships, situations, time, space, vibrations, past lives and so on. Hence it is a continuous effort of perseverance, trust and patience.

Fundamentally it is in realizing the nature and depth of vibrations and going back to the Source – or becoming the Source. In this understanding, we mistake a vibration as something separated or as connected with things and we are again in a loop. In the journey of going deeper in depth, the web will reveal itself in different ways and the issue is about observation and silencing the web and not in fixing it, for what is there to fix?! How can imagination or vibration or illusion be ‘fixed’? It is a phenomenon of Existence and it requires transcendence or silencing the vibrations. Silencing is a conscious process, there is no condition or purpose or output or a fruit or an expectation for the same. One either awakens to the need of silence or does not.

This nature of silencing will be unique to an individual and the output of which is same for any individual life form – being the One. Returning to the Source from many paths or gateways is the symbolic process – rivers going back to the ocean. Rivers have their own pathways and natures but the ocean is always the same and the One. Every year there is evaporation (invisible vibration from consciousness), clouds and winds are formed (force), it rains to form rivers and dense vegetation (forms) and the rivers meet the ocean again (dissolution of forms). This is an eternal cycle - there is absolutely no change in the ocean and neither it vanishes or gets tainted by any addition or subtraction. But it creates an event called the monsoon (life).

Hari Om.

Shree: Connection and Silence

Shree: Connection and Silence

Everything is vibration and what we see or feel or think or communicate through change and dependence and use word to convey something is a state of existence - it is a construct and hence it is very subtle and is a web of change and dependence. Cyclically things appear and go and all forms get created in the web and the web changes. This we perceive based on our own becoming in the web and going to some other state. However the Doer of all this magic is the One. We call Him Doer, Actor, Action based, Will, Imagination, Intent, Potential, and Existence. All is by Him; every thought or word or deed is by His presence. And hence being unconditional is our motto – and herein lie the terms of expansion, empathy, universal, duty, steadiness, surrendering, love and so on. Vibrations can generate billion things and make us entangled in them. It is not the form that is of our concern but the vibration beyond the form that is our field of inquiry and even consciousness beyond the vibration.

We have absolutely no say or control about the nature of motion and neither are we defined by motion. Motion is interdependence as we feel it at present and it is this interdependence that is our field of inquiry that should be transcended. The word is transcendence/ beyond/ realization and it signifies silencing of the wavering nature of interconnected vibrations and this may happen in any way, any method, any space, any time, any situation…as long as we stay focused.

Does it matter that the mobile is switched off? It doesn’t matter – rather it is a relief to disconnect with the distraction of mobile. In the same way, will it matter if motion or manifestation is disconnected? Not at all! By disconnecting with motion, we connect to God (or the means of connecting to God is by disconnecting with motion). Hence making the mind steady is to disconnect with the wavering vibrations (or silencing them) and becoming Absolute Existence. If a simple disconnection with mobile can offer so much relief, imagine the unlimited bliss one becomes if motion is disconnected from our thoughts! Thoughts are required to get silenced or disconnected from erupting.

Hari Om.

Shree: values

 

Shree: values

one starts with some vibration conveying a situation or space or time or place or people or response or an imagination or connections or logic or forms or forces or vibrations - this act of engagement should ideally silence the mind (eventually). even if this is achieved (as a habit) then the initial start point is accepted or acknowledged. so if i can look at the start point as a journey to lead to silencing the self, then to engage with the start point becomes incidental and necessary.

silencing the mind means to become consciousness (going beyond vibrations). all things are from consciousness only but since they are currently seen as "many", changing, interdependent and perceivable or visible, we doubt the connection of consciousness in making the forms and respond to forms in a manner that it would ensure our survival. this is a tendency of motion - it will drag one into action based on illusionary vibrations and the motion is perceived primarily through a unit of measurement called "body" endorsed by the "mind" which is formed from "vibrations" stemming from consciousness. where is the start point? in consciousness. in order to reach the source, one has to limit one's exposure to motion through body or senses.

a related concept to doing this is to go inward or to concentrate so much on divinity or consciousness that the signals in motion do not create any impact internally or do not erupt any new vibrations. the word used in such case is to "dissolve" the impact of what is perceived as a world. does it  mean to shut the world? opening to something or shutting something in a way is not possible or required.

to shut means to concentrate on something far greater idea that the trivial aspects of motion do not make any difference. this means to expand the mind and not be curbed by vibrations.

the mind should sense and become One instead of getting limited to the body.

therefore search God in everything one does - work or play or thought or feel or anything. what i say to whom and how and where etc should make me remember God - not as an object, but as an idea or a state of being. attributes of God are love, unconditional being, faith, trust, acceptance, expansion, infinite, steadiness. goodness, commitment and so on.

architecturally that may mean comprehensive acknowledgment of the presence of all, empathy in design, multi functional spaces, flexible, sustainable, organic, low maintenance perhaps, bonding, anchoring, common values, steadiness, learning and being, connecting with the other, slow, and so on.

pre modern cultures, vernacular traditions may perhaps express above values through idea diagrams leading to given set of practices or activities and then architecture. value is far greater than architecture (or architecture is to be seen as a gateway to realize a value shared as a humanity).

anyway, the term pre modern or modern is also quite misleading since it compartmentalizes time as a linear progression. whatever the situation at any point  of space and time, the values are required to be realized.

so all things already exist as values (or vibrations or Existence). which value one is required to become is a choice one should be making and focusing on.

in the same way, to keep on fixing motion and keep on searching for a start point is a waste of time. why certain things happen and get perceived (perception = happening) is mysterious and there exist far too much variables to pinpoint anything and neither it is required. what vibrations generate what responses within us and in the environment in terms of a situation is unknown and unpredictable. thus, we can only do good. whatever its effect outside, it surely transforms "us" - the individual.

therefore for any situation, where i experience a lot of impermanence, it does not say anything about my shortcomings and i can still continue to do good and be unconditional. and we need not assume how can God listen to us since we are too small. whenever i think of the possibility of God, i communicate with Him, since He is all and He is also in the mind and vibrations and even beyond. there is no place or time where He is not there. secondly, the intent of thinking of God is important regardless of any moment or situation or scale of thought. if the intensity is honest and sincere, the connection with Him is "real". so please communicate - it is a must. and do not worry about your size or situation or doubt anything or over think. whatever we are, we are from Him or He has made us. so please become steady.

Hari Om.

clarity is in realizing that all is One medium that is seen as motion or many or forces or forms or separation or change or impermanence or responses or ego  - known by many names but  essentially mean the same - forgetting who we truly are.

this is something mysterious and everything as a human perception from vibrations to forces to forms is called to recall this truth. by being dependent on one dimension to understand the truth is limited - the web needs to be understood and steadying the mind is required. hence all work, feelings and intellect are important align to this truth and all should work "as a team" to reveal this truth. till the team is known, there is confusion and dilemma or non alignment of human dimensions. this needs to resolve for our own sake.

on another note, we have abused ourselves and the environment  to such an extent that now we have started to use terms such as "user friendly" or "bird friendly" or "climate friendly" environments. snob.

the friendly note is attached because we have no choice but to accommodate "others" on which our survival depends! an entire nation built on extraction of resources or downright exploitation of resources for centuries - what do you expect out of their consciousness?

nevertheless, whatever the situation one has, can be regarded as a good start point to move beyond the motion and become empathetic to the world. and empathy starts from internal vibrations.
