Shree: Divinely Inspired

 

Shree,

Existence is from God – He is there and His presence generates or creates or conceptualizes or acts or manifests. The property of the medium is such that even if there is a minute vibration, it will generate thoughts and a form. Therefore the medium has the potential to keep “creating something”  - creation is the property of Being.

Another thought – compartmentalizing the self from others does not work, since more does one compartmentalize (control, plan, expect, execute, sequence etc.), more suffocating it becomes and more distorted does the imagination become and more eccentric does one’s behavior become. And then whatever one thinks, one assumes it as the truth!

There is effort required to become Truth that is beyond manifestations – that effort is of thought, analysis and synthesizing all dimensions of human perception. There is a reason why it takes time to define meaningful action, why impulses cannot be trusted, why it is required to analyze, what position does analysis have, what position trust has, what position does effort have. And this is a constant habit of engagement one requires. Struggle is necessary for liberation and we can only hope and trust that liberation would be achieved since it is the necessary constitution of the Soul. We don’t really know where and how and why things occur the way they do and we do not even know how we are made – this fact is the singlemost aspect that learning is required – the true meaning of what learning means that is.

Another thing that seems to happen is more the control is expected, more is the anxiety that develops and more is the dismissal of signals one does and more is the subletting of tasks that ensures and more is the pingpong effect of action – either of urgent resolution (desperation) or of endless procrastination. “I have to do something else the world will collapse” – what an assumption we harbor!

This attitude of “doing something” (for reasons Unknown or Divinely Inspired) is to be accepted with grace. We can only say that we are required to act. And that is to be trusted for whatever fruits those actions materialize.

Hari Om.
