On the seventh day God built this MIRROR !!!

The world is just a HUGE mirror and everything that we do not like in the world is actually a part of us, the part we are unable to confront! Every person we hate resembles to a part within us that we detest. What is within, is without.
Thanks to the ones I have disliked because they have done their best to bring me close to truth.

What More?
There are some people we 'like'. Darling, this is where the difficult part lies. We cannot drop dislike, unless we drop like. Dislike is just the conunterweight of like, it is fueled by 'Like'. Thanks to the ones I have liked because they show me why do I dislike.

You and me are Breathing, without having to 'remember to breathe' ... isn't that Wikkhed ! ... 'Gratitude!'

.

I plan to feel hungry at 1215 hrs GMT, I plan to digest food by 1500 hrs GMT and I plan to use all enzimes in listed proportion to convert it into blood. Finally, I plan to supply this blood evenly to my entire body ! ...... (deep breath)

Its so blissful to realise that nature takes care of most essential things in life ... 'Gratitude!'

Love, Vishal S. Avchar

No-Mind

.
A no-mind state is so blissful, so much one with the nature... Just being without any judgment, without any label of good or bad. Then whatsoever one does is so innocent. Whether it is singing with nature or being wild as a beast, it has the same quality.

Look into the eyes of a wild animal, there exists pure innocence. It begins with the mind slowing down, slowing down so much that life operates by itself, undisturbed, unjudged... just on its own accord.

Observation: for Enlightenment

Is desiring not a necessary evil? AND Is observing/ seeing sufficient without further actions?


Example 1: Consider a rope lying on a street. The mind fears it if the mind assumes this rope to be a snake. (This is a conventional example for illusion / Maya) Will it be sufficient to go closer to the object and observe if it is rope or snake? Once observed and understood that it is a rope, will any action be required for realisation?


Example 2: When I hit someone, does the action consume a part of my energy? (me, as a physical being in this body-mind) Yes it does, the action is nothing but a part of my energy.

Subtler: Before hitting someone, the anger that takes me over also should be a part of my own energy, cannot be something induced from outside. A part of my energy has afterall been used for anger. Is it the same case with 'Fear' as well? Is my fear also a part of me? It is all me and my energy in different forms.

Even Subtler: I am asleep and am dreaming. Where does the energy to make up the dream come from? The dream is being played in my mind (probably unconcious mind) but it is still a part of me. I supply energy to it.
When in dream we are so involved in the dream that we consider it to be a matter of life and death. We sometimes get scared in the dream - the effect of which is also seen on the body (say, sweating) ! All the dreams have features that, if observed while dreaming, hint us towards understanding that it is a dream. [Many of us have been through this experience. It is now also possible, using cognitive science methods, to identify reality and dream state :).. these methods involve continuous observation !]

Is 'knowing that this is a dream' sufficient to come out of it? Or would we still need some action?In other words, Once we are awake do we still need to take any action to get rid of the desires that we had in the dream?

Funda’spiritual’ quantities

Physical world cannot understand itself. For it be understood, a subtler entity that can perceive physical representation is required.

The entity humans use to understnad it is Mind. With mind, human being has been able to break down physical reality (of the known 4 dimensional world) into perceivable quantities. As understood ‘mentally’; Hence, funda’mental’ (at a foundation level what we understand mentally is fundamental) .

Length, mass and time are the fundamental measures of physical world.

Mental world cannot experience itself. For it to be experienced, a subtler entity that can experience mental perceptivity is required.
This entity is the spiritual entity. So, what are the funda’spiritual’ measures of the mental world?

Length mass and time, now in mental terms, form the set of fundaspiritual quantities of mind. The mind is made up of thoughts. So the mental length is the distance between oneself and the object of one’s thought. Mass is the number of thoughts occurring at an instant. Time is the distance between reality and thought world. Reality is being in present and thought being either in future or in past.

As length mass and time come to zero, the physical world collapses into an atom, as during the beginning of the universe!, where energy wraps itself into itself and claims back all the nature spread out, back into nothingness. As the mental length, mass and time tend to zero, the individual allows ones ideas and dreams collapse into one’s own self leaving no trace of the mind but an experience of void.

In this state: the distance being zero, the subject is but the object of thought. If the distance is maintained as zero, the object has to be constant and hence mass or number of thoughts collapse to a unity. We still have a thought, which is a gap between self and mind. The single thought too disappears as time becomes zero.

Hence, most spiritual practices boil down to the message ‘be still, here and now’.
