Myriad of Thoughts

Myriad of Thoughts

-Anil Deshpande


Goal Of Life:


Enlightenment can neither be experienced nor experimented. Enlightenment can neither be defined nor described. When you are enlightened people don't argue with you they agree with you


Dvaita and Advaita philosophies have always confused me. According to advaita when God can exist everywhere he can also exist with in our self. Dvaita says God himself has created you with a purpose so he cannot exist within you.


Belief :

It is an universal truth that human beings exist because we think, but none have answered this question that what should we think to exist.


Humans have learnt to believe from nature. I mean the five quintessential senses which exist from the primordial form of humans and nature it self has all those. You can only believe when you

  • listen something to believe

  • see something to believe

  • hear something to believe

  • touch something to believe

  • think something to believe

So, people believe according to their senses, they prioritize which comes first in their list .


Why I spoke of belief is to ask you a question that do you believe that God exists ?


Some people say it is just 6th sense, its just an extension you created from your thought to believe.


I have a small puzzle for you, using two 3's , I want you to get a result of 8, you can do anything to get 8 , all your beliefs contradict you go into every nook and corner and curse yourself and your teacher that they did not teach me properly.


Energy:

When you say everything in this universe is nothing but energy, then life is also a form of energy which can neither be created nor destroyed, it can only be lived to the fullest, that too only by you not by somebody not for somebody.


Body and Mind:


In prehistoric times sages used to train their body first because it was most important form of your life than anything . Senses etc only come with and after body. It does not listen to you you have to listen to it, but where as mind is totally different from body even when it exists with in your own body. From your birth till you crossed your infancy body used to control you, you were innocent, blissful full of life. When your mind started to dominate your body you fell into this whirlpool called samsara. So the body has to wake up again before waking your inner self.


When your body and mind are trained the only thing left for you understand is your inner self, which is a key to enlightenment.


I always get a question that when do you know that you are enlightened, my inner self suddenly counters this question with why do want to know that you are enlightened .


Enlightenment happens to everybody but differently, some get enlightened in their profession,


Does any body know that God exists, if yes what is their basis, we all are living in a defined finite field you have to be out of this finite field to understand the nature first then you can think about god .


We studied in our schooling about Charles Darwin's evolution theory. “Survival for the fittest”


Now in this fast paced world the theory has changed, there are some more amendments to this theory.


Survival of the fastest”


I am always amused that are we here just to strive to survive , when you live you obviously survive. To me evolution happens only when we start thinking of “Survival for the finest”


what is the aim of our life to live to the fullest or to survive.
