Many human beings think human beings are the best of God’s creations. Do you think so? If so why? Some people think human beings are bestowed with more intelligence, discerning power, logical thinking ability, better cognisance, polished emotions... Do you believe so? If so why? Some Homo sapiens even believe that all other God’s creations are for a singular sapien species. All for him. They don’t believe all for all, one benefits from the other and vice versa, the chain continuum of this mundane ephemeral existence or in anything of that sort. Do you too believe so? If so why?

Think of a condition: God has never indulged in the creation of his most disobedient, apple-eating Adams. Will this Globe earth be a better or worse place of God’s infinite realms?

No concrete buildings, no roads, no vehicles, no clothes, no massive mining, no banks, no aeroplanes, no electricity, no telephones, televisions, ..........

No missiles, no atom bombs, no terrors, no wars fought with weapons of mass destruction......

No universities, no learning-teachings, no inventions (only discoveries)no doctorates, no Nobels, no patents.......

No families, no religions, no discrimination........

No prayers ostensible, no war and prayers with weapons, (after all what difference is there between human prayer and war)

No killings for blessings, but for food just enough to satisfy a hunger,

No medicines, no doctors (I am sorry medicine/cure sellers).....

No heaven-hell concerns and fights born out of that concern

No countries, no boundaries, no nationality, no patriotism, no American, no Indian, Arabs, Israelites, Hindus, Muslims, Budhists, Sikhs, Bahais, Christians, Jews, Zorastrian, Jains, irreligious........

No festivals, no pilgrimages..........

Hahahahah...how wonderful a world it will be then, chaste mother nature, virgin, though will conceive from no specific, singular father, will give birth to off springs a lot, who will live a contented life, float in “anandam” till an enjoyable death changes their abode to another globes of God, selected at random....hahahaha...........

Won’t earth, without Homo sapiens be a better place for all to live in? Don’t you believe so? If not why?

Let’s, so, prove to God our father creator, that in creating Homos he hath not done a mistake, we will also become chaste like all our other brethren (if you call yourself animal, you can call them also animals) and live a contented life, float in “anandam” till he changes the abode of ours, to some other unexplored abodes, and let the continuum go on without any disturbances.

We don’t require dresses, we don’t have to travel beyond distances our legs can carry us, no pilgrimages, prayers/wars, no medicines, no treatments for the body, it’s required for the mind alone, no savings, live always in the presence, no conveniences extra, because you are born with all the conveniences, no concerns, because concerns kills and prevents you from courting a peaceful transition from one phase of life to another, no fear of pains, watchfully bear pains, each time you do it you will learn to overcome all pains in this unending life and that’s the only possible cure.

Believe nothing, go explore, it’s Maya, enjoy, let “anandam” get filled up to its brim in everyone's life. When activity gets reduced Happiness,”anandam” rather, gets increased. Go back... Oh no...go forward...

So, God may think, let human beings also be!

What is so special about Life?

2010-08-16T23:29:00.000-07:00

…..Am no pariah. Am born to Hindu Lower caste parents though.

When my neighbor, Mr. Mammad’s son and other teen aged children called my father by his first name without any prefixes or suffixes indicative of respect, quite common among our routine discourses when we address an elderly, I did feel the pain within, though never expressed it outside. My father kept cool, though am sure he felt the pain within. I felt nothing strange when my dog and cat slept with me. About having closely caressed a dog some people treat me as an untouchable, I felt no pain about and have no worries. I have nothing against them.

I feel no bad about living in a dilapidated house since long. A day’s work earns me some farthings, but quite worthy to lead a happy life. Am not employed anywhere, but work every day. Be it a weekday or a weekend, I work throughout the week. I have no scores against the government officers who constantly engage their office hours destroying the common man’s life and help increase the number of destitute in our country.

I do respect the people of the upper caste. I do believe that they are above me in many respects though I don’t consider me as an inferior individual. I prefer starvation to butchering and eating an animal. I consider fruits, the fruits of hard work, the best food for human beings. I eat fruits mostly, some cereals and pulses every day and I eat twice a day, afternoon and at night on most days and am happy throughout. I find time for yoga everyday and do try to practice meditation. Never did it for good health, physical or mental fitness, but as a routine; am habituated.

I can do a multitude of works, and hence am never jobless. I don’t belong to any organisation, be it political or religious or job related. Even if the whole of humanity form an organisation, I would restrain from being a registered member. In other words even if the whole inhabitants on the face of earth desires to form a union I would not want to join them. I never felt I belong to any particular group.

I consider it really wonderful to live as a poor man. But I won’t ask you to try it.

Forget it all; I want to tell you something now. Something important:

I respect you a lot, I love you a lot, whoever you are, whichever animal you are…..

Please revert and tell me what you think about such kind of an outlook towards life.........

To Prophetize Yourself

2009-11-12T05:03:00.000-08:00

Dear Suresh,

Should you shout that we are still in the infancy of human thoughts and beliefs?

Let’s read the sentences Socrates said when he was given the venom.

The "Bodha" or the ultimate consciousness of man is an evolutionary phenomenon. Fear factor, structured belief constructs that evolve out of this fear factor and his innate longings, are all initial steps of this evolution. Religion and such other belief constructs are stages in the infancy of human intellectual evolution. Man has to grow past fast, lest it may wax redundant.

An omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient God watching all the human deeds rewarding the righteous and punishing the wrong doers is there in all religions, more so in the Semitic ones. Kind of idolatry, an Idol made of materials or of belief is the prevailing notion. Enstrengthen your beliefs. Don't ever be obstinate. To all religious believers religious dogmas are the ultimate. Even they become furious on hearing anything against it.

But never speak bad about it, because some have to cross those initial metamorphosis of bodha. We'll wait. Let it happen.

Still you have to have a strong faith in GOD. A God which is everything, which is in everything, which doesn't long for our ritualized prayers of any form or sort, which is away from all human like passions like longing, anger, fury, love, affection, comfort........Hahahaha. Remember a prayer is nothing but an intense expression of a personalized longing.

Be Happy, cause happiness to others, never try to impose others to follow your believes, let them find out their way. You can however be of assistance to them. But never be authoritative.

Because man has found many things, many things have been revealed to him. Many things are being sought by him even now. What is being found out by him, what is being revealed to him are too small when compared what is not. The ultimate truth is not yet revealed to him. It's all beyond words; it has to be experienced with your innermost eye. Even that experience cannot be explained in words. There are blessed souls who are bestowed with this vivid experience.

Let's keep our mind, eyes, ears and every other such perceptional instruments, external and internal open. God will descend down into our "Bodha" . Prophetisation of every individual is possible. Liberate yourself from the obstinacies of religious beliefs. Be content; open and happy.

Let all of us, the inhabitants of this and all other worlds be eternally happy.

You and your Conscience

2009-08-04T06:22:00.000-07:00

There are myriad cells

in your body.

Each cell is an independent living thing. Cells take birth and die in our body, continuously. Is a cell a separate living thing? Does it think, does it have a feeling on itself? Or does it contribute to the total thinking process of the whole body, whole self?

Is my feeling the sum total of the feelings of all the cells of my body?

Is there something called the cosmicconsciousness, which is the sum total of the

consciouness of all the things

living and nonliving, which constitute this universe or cosmos.

Man believes that he has made a lot of progress. What progress did he make?

Is he living in a more progressed condition than his primitive predecessors?

Is the scientific and technical advancements

actually a progress in its actual sense?

Should I think on these lines or should I just float? Is there anything to be learned?

Is there anything to be earned?

Anything to be done?

Nothing to do here?

What is all this frantic run for?

Rat race! Cat race! Or should it be termed a Man race?

"I" am the Lord

2009-06-23T05:56:00.001-07:00

The "I" using "my mind" understands and decides everything. This "I" who is witnessing everything from behind is the Lord of all. Prevent your mind from going out by boarding the thought units. It's the natural property of this mind to foray out abode thought units. There's an internal tourism your mind can indulge in. And that's the real pilgrimage.Climb up the Canterbury Hills of your mind. Draw it inwards and try to analyse and understand this "I". I am God and you too cannot be anything else.

Life of Contentment

2009-06-12T08:22:00.000-07:00

The internal tool, mind is too important a thing. The constructions we build there are the world to us. This world actually exists in that consciousness of ours.

Are you really bold? Do you feel afraid when you were asked to go away from your beliefs? Are you not willing to constantly renew your belief constructs? Do you actually believe that your convictions are absolutely right; Unchangeable and definitely divine. If so there is some problem with your style of thinking. Think about your thought process and thought constructs. Rethink. Do a self analysis.

Do you pray? What is the nature of your prayer. Is it a demand you place before a power which is capable enough to fetch you anything you demand. Money, wealth, positions, power, educational achievements, physical and mental achievements etc are longed for? It's just longing and not a prayer. Do you ask for a better life after death? It's a longing and not a divine act at all, and may not do you any good.

Denounce and learn to live. Practice to be happy with what you have. Consume the minimum possible. Consider you as one of the creatures of this world and not as the supreme creation. Love ofcourse is a weakness and never a strength.

Knowing this LOVE all, LOVE everything.

Let PEACE dwell everywhere.

Who am I

2009-05-08T12:29:00.001-07:00

The feeling that I am the person who answers to the call Babu, or this body with its activities is me, has occurred, after this birth. I was there before this birth, and I'll be there after this life. I am not born neither do my life end, may undergo changes. Time and space are non existential. This world exists in the "BODHA"-the supreme conscience. The sum total of the bodha of each cell that constitute this body is the bodha of this body, and the sum total of the bodha of all the constituents of this universe is the Bodha of the Universe. The cosmic conscience is the ultimate. I am not an unimportant constituent of this cosmic conscince.Eternal is this life.There's nothing to be worried in this life. Nothing to be gained, nothing to be lost.Celebrate life. Analyse your thoughts, its origin, the way you work with it. Have you ever thought, who is the real person who thinks, analyses and understands using the tool mind? Mind is only a tool like eyes, tongue, skin, and so it can't understand on its own. So think who or which is the force behind all these tools.Control your passions. Controll your desires. Build no apathy or antipathy towards anything. Inculcate in yourself an abosolute conflict free approach towards all elements of this mundane, ephemeral existence.

Mind is an instrument with which we analyse things and form an understanding about..... Mind cannot understand anything on its own. Then who is the person who understands the things....Think about your own thoughts

I presume that philosophy is the Science of all Sciences
and The Vedic Philosophy is the Science of all Philosophies

I am looking forward for opinion of yours on this subject
