ARE YOU REALLY AWARE WHAT IS HAPPENING INSIDE YOU AT THOUGHT LEVEL ????????

ARE YOU REALLY AWARE WHAT IS HAPPENING INSIDE YOU AT THOUGHT LEVEL ???????? 

PERHAPS - NO


LET ME TRY TO EXPLAIN



In the waking state as well as in dreaming state,

right from the morning to the night,

you are trying "to get rid of/to fulfill/to get yourself free from" the so called your thoughts/desires (spiritual thoughts/desires included) which go on appearing into our mind continuously.


However this function(phenomenon) is happening inside us without we being aware of it i.e. without our knowledge.



If somehow you become aware of the above fact

by verifying on your own

after the thoughts or actions have passed away,

then perhaps the so called spiritual linguistic gymnastic is not needed at all,

because the whole purpose of all these are to get free from the grips of thoughts

and

in fact you are already engaged in this process albeit without being aware of such functioning going on unhindered.


""JUST VERIFY ON YOUR OWN""---- From morning to just before going to sleep.



Take simple examples to understand this factual position.

In the morning after waking up, a thought of "having a cup of tea" appears in you and you express that thought by asking somebody “whether tea is ready” or if you are alone you go and prepare tea on your own.

If the answer come “yes” or after preparing the tea the thought (having a cup of tea) gets annihilated.

If answer comes “no” or you don't get any of the ingredients then another thought appears and expressed as “what is the problem” or "where is that ingredient".

It again gets annihilated by another answer or by finding.


A series of thoughts continuously go on appearing and you go on trying to fulfill them in order to get yourself free from those thoughts.


If you can somehow verify in a systematic manner a great secret of life will be revealed and you will be amazed of implications of this finding/discovery.

I HAVE BEEN MISUNDERSTOOD

I HAVE BEEN MISUNDERSTOOD



HAVE YOU EVER BEEN MISUNDERSTOOD ??? 


YES, ALWAYS AS THERE IS NO ALTERNATIVE TOO.



WHEN DO YOU COME TO KNOW ABOUT HAPPENING OF MISUNDERSTANDING ?


THIS IS NOT A SUDDEN PHENOMENON BUT RECOGNISED/REALISED SUDDENLY.

THE SEED OF MISUNDERSTANDING GETS SOWN UNKNOWINGLY FROM THE MOMENT YOU COME IN THE CONTACT WITH THE PERSON CONCERNED.

BUT SPROUTING AND FLUTING TAKE TIME.

YOU COME TO KNOW/RECOGNISE/REALISE ONLY WHEN MISUNDERSTANDING CROSSES THE THRESHOLD LIMIT FROM THE SUDDEN OUTBURST FROM THE PERSON CONCERNED.



CAN IT BE AVOIDED ??

PERHAPS YES.


HOW ??



IF THE PERSON CONCERNED FEELS EVEN SLIGHTEST PINCH/HURT DUE TO YOUR WORDS (AS THEY ARE VERY POOR COMMUNICATOR OF MEANING/MESSAGE) OR ACTIONS,

HE/SHE SHOULD IMMEDIATELY EXPRESS TO YOU.

AND AT THAT POINT OF TIME ITSELF THAT MATTER CAN BE RESOLVED VERY EASILY (EVEN MATTER MIGHT GET FINISHED AUTOMATICALLY) AS THE SEED OF MISUNDERSTANDING WILL NOT GET NOURISHMENT FOR FURTHER GROWTH AND YOU WILL HAVE THE STRONG UNBREAKABLE BONDING WITH HIM/HER.



BUT WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN ??


BECAUSE "PERHAPS YOU ARE BEYOND UNDERSTANDING".



NORMALLY NO ONE TRIES TO UNDERSTAND YOU IN NORMAL COURSE CONSCIOUSLY BUT STILL MISUNDERSTANDING HAPPENS.

WHEN SOMEBODY TRIES TO UNDERSTAND YOU CONSCIOUSLY AND IF THE MISUNDERSTANDING HAPPENS THEN IT MAKES SENSE.

BUT DOES IT NOT LOOK AWKWARD THAT WITHOUT EVEN TRYING TO UNDERSTAND CONSCIOUSLY BY OTHER FELLOW, YOU ARE MISUNDERSTOOD ???


BUT WHAT IS MISUNDERSTANDING ?


IN MY OPINION

"WHEN THE NATURAL CONNECTIVITY WITH OTHERS (EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED WITH ALL OTHER THINGS OR LIFE FORMS)

COMES TO THE SURFACE

OR

GETS REVEALED

TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT THE EXISTENCE OF ILLUSORY EGO (PERSONALITY / INDIVIDUALITY) IS FELT QUESTIONABLE

AND

THIS RESULTS INTO A SENSE/FEELING OF MISUNDERSTANDING.


[ HERE THE WORD YOU INCLUDES EVERYONE ]



WHAT DO YOU SAY ?????????????????



[ I HAVE BEEN MISUNDERSTOOD BY ONE OF MY FB FRIENDS RECENTLY.

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAVE BEEN MISUNDERSTOOD.

THE REVERSE MAY ALSO BE TRUE i.e. MISUNDERSTANDING MAY BE ON MY PART.

BUT THIS RECENT ONE LED ME TO ANALYSE "WHY" THIS HAPPENS. ]


I HAVE BEEN FINDING MYSELF MISUNDERSTOOD BY MY MANY REAL LIFE FRIENDS FROM A LONG TIME AND BY FB FRIENDS FROM LAST ONE YEAR WHEN I STARTED FB JOURNEY.

THIS MISUNDERSTANDING LED TO UN-FRIENDING, BLOCKING, GETTING DELETED FROM THE GROUPS ETC.

I THINK MOST OF YOU HAVE ALSO GONE THROUGH THIS ORDEAL.


ON THIS WHOLE DRAMA I CAN DO NOTHING BUT LAUGH.............................

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH...............

OUR TRUE DESIRE OR WHAT LIFE WANTS

OUR TRUE DESIRE OR WHAT LIFE WANTS 


Perhaps the basic unconscious desire of every human being is to forget oneself i.e. extinguishing/annihilating "oneself/one's thoughts" as one is nothing but a bundle of thoughts. 

In a sense coming to the emptiness which is our true nature.


This can be inferred from our various mental and physical activities.


Let me try to explain.


Everyone is engaged in fulfilling his/her desires in waking as well as dreaming state.

In deep sleep state one is not even aware about oneself i.e. the state of complete forgetfulness, as the movement of thoughts which is necessary for being aware, comes to naught.

The same (complete forgetfulness) thing happens in the moment when a desire gets fulfilled (when the movement of thought related to desire comes to naught due to getting fulfilled), but this does not get grasped by the mind as this happens for a fraction of second as there is a chain of desires standing in que for getting fulfilled.

And in this fraction of second we feel a sense of fulfillment/contentment.

This sense of fulfillment/contentment is nothing but "absence of movement of thoughts" or "emptiness" which basically all of us unconsciously desire.

WHAT THE HELL WE ARE DOING ????

WHAT THE HELL WE ARE DOING ????


What I or perhaps all of us have observed that

when the word "ENLIGHTENMENT" comes for the discussion

many of us say or give opinion with "authority(as if fully known)" that

"there is no enlightenment, we have just forgotten to remember, we are already enlightened, etc."

making the whole discussion ridiculous or uncalled for or irrelevant.


Everyone of us tries to impress upon others that he/she knows what is being discussed.



[I don't know whether I am correct or not on this point, but to me it appears to be correct.]



But at the same time

1. we go on discussing topics related to the so called spirituality central theme of which is "enlightenment"

2. We go on quoting sayings/wisdom of various so called Masters of either yesteryear or contemporary ones whose complete focus is on enlightenment only.



Our this approach/behaviour puts a big question mark i.e.


"WHAT THE HELL WE ARE DOING ?"



CAN'T WE SEE THIS CONTRADICTION ?



Are we not behaving in a way which is simply showing that we are neurotic having split personalities ?

DO YOU WANT TO LOOSE YOURSELF ?????????

DO YOU WANT TO LOOSE YOURSELF ?????????



I have experienced/observed/analysed or many of us might have too that "one (as understanding---at thought level) is always getting replaced by another other up to certain extent by way of interaction".

But that is not being done purposely/knowingly i.e. we are not aware of this happening.

The replacement i.e. "the merger of understanding" or "two different understandings becoming one", happens unknowingly and later on one realises this , the symptom of which(realisation) is "feeling a sense of loss of oneself" and then one reacts.

If you look into your day to day life this is actually what is happening with you or everybody is engaged in this only over and above of the engagement for fulfilling the basic needs.

Perhaps this is happening because of the unconscious desire to merge with the others/whole, but at the same time the conditioning which gives you the sense of individual identity (feeling/knowledge of separation) does not want it (merger) to happen.

Hence, the conflict between you (EGO-conditioning) and the unconscious desire surfaces suddenly later on when you(ego) find that you have been lost to a certain extent.

And you as a separate illusory identity start blaming other with whom you have merged.

Perhaps at unconsciousness level a feeling of happiness (peace/relaxation) goes on increasing due to getting merged (as that is the eternal desire) while at conscious level when it comes to your notice the reactions happen in various ways generally we label them as negatives.

This happens when you (ego) feel lost i.e. your understanding and others's understanding do not exist as two, but one.


Through music/art etc. or for that matter any activity where other is not a human being we are unconsciously doing the same(trying to merge).

But here conflict of ego does not happen as that can happen only in case of two human beings.



Perhaps even all the sexual activities are also nothing

but

"symptoms of this unconscious desire of getting merged".


That is why if you want to retain your illusory identity---EGO---then remain always alert while interacting with others in any manner to avoid the future pain and blame game.

NEVER WITHHOLD YOURSELF

NEVER WITHHOLD YOURSELF


Many a times people try and succeed too in withholding their emotions from getting expressed. 

This leads to suppression of emotions which are generally associated with high level of energy.

This suppressed emotions are the root cause of all misery as those emotions go on doing their duty and their effects are always visible (whether you are aware or not) in day to day life in relation to humans or anything else of . Others who are sensitive can very well detect this.

Although in reality all is happening (including withholding)......but so long as we have not known this reality of happening we should try let go the emotions expressed just like children or we should consciously try to express them.

In nature (including our body) nothing is there which ever withholds. 

I AM ON THE 15th PLANE---Osho

I AM ON THE 15th PLANE---Osho



The followers of Radhaswami cult in Agra wanted to try to make something better than the Taj Mahal, because thousands of tourists were coming every day to see the Taj Mahal.

Naturally they thought it was not only a question of prestige, it was also a question of business. It had been going on for almost one hundred years.

They had been able to make only the ground floor.

Certainly they have made it far better than the Taj Mahal, but there seems to be no possibility that they will be able to complete it.

They wanted to make it a three-story building, so it goes higher than the Taj Mahal, but all the money that they could collect from their followers from all over India is finished.

For one hundred years continuously thousands of workers have been involved in making it.


I have seen.... Their pillars are so beautiful, so creative: on the pillars they have made creepers in marble.

And the creepers have green flowers of green marble and roses on top of the creepers made in rubies, emeralds, diamonds.

They have certainly made it clear that if they complete it -- even incomplete -- it has gone beyond the Taj Mahal.

They are immensely happy.

They invited me when I was speaking at Agra University....

They invited me to show me their incomplete memorial.

They have done a tremendously great job.



They took me inside.

Inside they have a map drawn on the marble and on the map there are fourteen divisions.

They have put all the enlightened people that they could think of in the division to which he belongs.

There are not only three categories....

According to them there are fourteen.

Mohammed is in the third division, Jesus is in the fifth -- so is Moses.

In the sixth is Mahavira and Buddha.

In the seventh, Kabir, Nanak, and in that way they went on.

Names are engraved in marble.


And in the fourteenth there is only one man, their own master, who was not known outside Agra.

All his following is centered in Agra.

A few people have moved to different places, but basically, it is a one-city-oriented religion.

They asked me what was my opinion about this map.


I said, "Who has made this map?"

They said, "It is in our holy scripture. Our master himself has made this."

I said, "Your master is right. He is in the fourteenth."


They looked at me, because before me they had shown that map to many people.

Everybody disagreed because their masters were put in the fifth degree, somebody's master in the third degree, somebody's master at the most in the seventh.

After the seventh, the other six planes are empty.

The fourteenth, the highest reach of consciousness, has been achieved by their master.

Naturally no Hindu will agree, no Mohammedan will agree, no Jaina will agree, no Jew, no Christian, no Buddhist. Nobody is going to agree.

I was the first man to agree with what they said.


They said, "You are the only man who understands."



I said, "Certainly, because I am on the fifteenth and I know your master is trying, making every effort, to enter into the fifteenth. I don't allow him! He tries hard, but I don't open the door. And as long as I am there on the fifteenth -- and there is no sixteenth, so I cannot go anywhere else -- your master has no chance."



They said, "Fifteenth? But in our scripture there are only fourteen."


"I think that's natural. Your master knows about only fourteen because he has never entered the fifteenth."


They were very much shocked and angry.

Their whole desire is that their master is accepted as the highest, then they are certainly the most significant people on the earth, following the greatest master.

And the master was also on the same trip because in his own writing, which nobody reads except his own disciples -- and they are not many, but they are very rich people....


They showed me their scripture.

He has written with his own hand the names of Gautam Buddha and Jesus and Kabir on lower steps, and his own name he has written on the highest.

That very stupidity shows that he is not even on the lowest, the first floor.

He does not know anything about enlightenment.


He may have been a learned scholar.

That seems to be a possibility, because he writes well.

But he is writing everything as a parrot, repeating from old Indian scriptures.

There is not a single statement which is original.


I asked them, "Show me something that is original. A man who has reached to the highest plane of consciousness must say something which nobody has said, because nobody has reached to that plane. Show me something. Because all that is written in it has been said by people who are just on the third, fourth, fifth.... What is your master's own statement? What is his testimony?"


They could not find a single statement in their whole book which was not stolen.

But this thing goes on and on.

 

Action-Reaction "The Basics Of Karma Theory" Questioned

Action-Reaction "The Basics Of Karma Theory" Questioned


The popular Karma Theory postulates that you will get the result as per your action done i.e. reaction is the result of action done.

In a sense this exactly in conformity with Newton's Law of Action.

But in nature the action (cause) and reaction (effect) form a continuum.

They can never be separated in time.

The reaction starts immediately after the action gets started. In fact the result/effect/reaction starts accumulating immediately when the action get started(without being aware that the effect is getting accumulated), but we perceive the result in the end as we remain concentrated on action.

And as soon as our concentration/awareness from the action comes to naught we perceive the result which was already getting accumulated. The result just get revealed in the end because the awareness towards the action comes to naught.

Hence, there cannot be any gap between happening of cause and its effect.

Then how is it possible that our past karmas affect our present birth i.e. a long gap of time between cause(action) and effect(reaction)?

Somehow I think total misunderstanding of the Kerma Theory ( the concept of "action and reaction or cause and effect" ) has happened.

What do you say ?????????????????

NOTHING REALLY HAPPENS

NOTHING REALLY HAPPENS



In a sense (not in usual practical sense in life as we understand) perhaps there is none who does, there is nothing which is being done and there is none who is getting affected by any of the so called acts (doing).


This whole whole phenomenon of the "happening of perceiving" just appears to be happening because of our conditioning.


Take out this conditioning (training part of the brain) and see.

The Hurt Can Pave the Way to the Heart

The Hurt Can Pave the Way to the Heart

~~~~~ U N K N O W N ~~~~~

[ One of the most powerful statement ever made ]



No person can get hurt unless and until the person concerned is already having some painful sensitive point inside her/him-self because of conditioning (misunderstanding /misconception).


This situation is similar to the physical pain, but with a difference.

At least in case of physical pain something is there to be got hurt , but in case of mental hurt there is non-existent illusory (deemed) entity which gets hurt by another illusory (deemed) entity called thoughts which are the building block of the illusory (deemed) entity popularly known as EGO.


And that mental hurt (pain) is due to presence of the greatest illusory disease labeled as EGO (which in fact does not exist----appears to be existing because of unawareness or in-attention or lack of questioning its existence itself) and hurt is perhaps the best sign of its presence.

Hence, the intensity of the hurt is a good measure of strength of the illusory ego as more the hurt more strong is the Ego. Especially those hurts which contain the tendency to be getting carried forward.

But if one becomes aware of this factual position perhaps the chances/probabilities of getting to the core of understanding which is in the concept of NOW, become bright.

Perhaps all the Masters/Gurus do nothing other than making the seekers/disciples to understand the illusory nature of the EGO which is perhaps the single point goal of the whole spirituality.
