Just some thing Crazy

Hi...
   Thoughts... Feelings... Sensations... When all of these feel connected to each other... We land in to what it is called Depression... Surprised!!!! But its true... When all these faculties inside you start thinking in one way... Either you are depressed or Enlightened... The only difference between those 2 is the state of the Mind... Which is actually something which brings you closer to your own Self... Thoughts which leads you to yourself are very conducive but getting trapped in them is also Bondage... All things in this entire creation is a bondage if got caught... Strangely one thing i noticed was there is no other way to stay on the path... Except complete surrender... Surrender bring Humility... There is nothing which can break you... only those things break which oppose or resist the Force... The Force of Creation and Force of Nature... We can be transparent or elastic so that in any given condition... Any Storm of Emotions... SURVIVE... 
   This path is not about the survival of the fittest... But rather Fit test to Survive... 
For now... Till the Next one... Hang ON...

Amazing Realization

My Friend had an amazing realization... Just wanted to share it...

we reflect our feelings our emotions our being on them and this is what gives the other the identity...we tag them as good, bad , ugly and as the situations change our thoughts about that person changes. why there is a craving to be with some one. cause they give us the validity a reason to say yes i am something for some one.in any situation.but then without them we are nothing no one..son, daughter, mother father, lover..

when going deeper within us the realization dawns that its just the body, mind but the core of the being is the same.. and who ever that is who ever we are longing for is the same. u, me everyone else we are just projected in a different way when in different situation, different circumstance..but then when centered the whole creation the whole being is the same. you and i we are one. and no matter what nothing can change that. that is the truth. the ultimate truth. NOW!

Love v/s Relationship

Hey there;
The word "Life" when comes into the mind... The mind quickly starts calculating and analysing the present state of mind, situations, people, etc... And starts linking and finding some or the other connection from it... But if we see Life as the way of a Witness... Everything is just happening the way it is supposed to happen... Even our part what we are playing is also happening... Nothing actually is being DONE...
One more tendency of the Mind is to link Love to a Relation... Normally we tend to see reasons for Being Loved or Reasons for Loving someone or something... But what we forget is the biggest truth... Love is there with or without that person/things presence... only in the presence of that person/thing we experience the Love... That is the reason we tend to connect Love to a Relation...
But wait a while... Before expressing your Love to a Person/Thing... Look deep inside... Follow the feeling which takes you to your BEING... Where there is a fountain of Love... Once it is found nothing is this world can take you away from there...
The Irony is that every Storm in our life gives us the real essence of what Love is... Without any Label... Label of Relationship... Relations break... People break... Situations break... and everything breaks something inside you... Giving us a broader perspective of Love, Life... Being... But again this tendency of holding on to the Relation is what keeps us in the Pain of the Storm... Not letting us the Broader vision of Ourself or shall I say Our "SELF"
Many times knowingly we have to go through as the Storm is inevitable... But still we can be at the centre... of our own Being... This is Life... Something Breaks, Something Joins... and Life Still Goes OOOOOOnnnnnnn.... and on and on... No Choice...
As my Beloved Master says :- " Pyaar Ko Pyaar hi rehne do, Koi Naam na Do!!!"

Amazing... Simply Amazing...

Faith, Hope & ??????

observing the patterns
there is this tendency of going back to the deepest impressions
again and again
till the Mind is really bored of the pattern
and wants to break free
but doesnt know how
it is a never ending exercise
of
learning and unlearning
a time comes when the mind grows bored of this exercise too
and then it settles down completely in the present moment
this is also a part of this same exercise
hehehehe
how funny
but the moment the awareness is lost again and again unknowingly goes back to the same pattern
some times it looks like there is no end to this
but there is a HOPE
and FAITH
that someday this is going to end
waiting for the time when that someday becomes TODAY
:D

Funny Realization

Hey there...
was busy with few important things this past 20 days... and would like to share few things bout it... the latest and the most hilarious realization happened...
We all think we are somebody and our mind and intellect are very sharp and blah blah blah... the most amazing part is without the Divine Grace nothing in this whole world can move... we tend to compare ourselves with people around us and label them according to how we perceive or judge them... some people above us and some below... the most amazing and funniest part is that we rank ourselves according to all these labels... ("I" am good, "I" am like this... and on...) But the real fun is when we don't see ourselves in comparison with the Ultimate Universe... What is our puny Ego compared to the Universal Ego... Nothing.... Not even a peck of dust... just a part of its atom... and we think We are Somebody.... brouhaha.... anyways... all such concepts about Myself were completely demolished in this past few days... and I have no clue What I am??? Where I am???

WHO I AM????

Its back to square one for me and its good to be on that square... According to me....
I don't know what others thinks about this... Comments are invited...
Seeya....

Tendencies of the Mind

    Siting on the terrace of my kutir watching the skies, observing all the flavors and thought patterns and just witnessing what is going on in the inner atmosphere... One of the most amazing puzzle which was there since a long time got cracked... Found out few thing which i am sharing...
   The Mind has 2 characteristics... 1) To learn. 2) To unlearn...
Every event happening leaves its mark on the mind, mind learns something new... Some new impressions are created and few of the old ones are erased or overwritten with the fresh ones created...
  In the same fashion the mind itself can unlearn what has been learnt over a period of present as well as past lifetimes... Just becoming aware about a typical tendency of the mind, and diving deep into it can reveal its source... The deepest cravings and aversions... It works as a process from scratch... Like the RAM of a computer system... The more no of programs are open the system is slow and more possibility of a system failure or even hanging... The less no of programs are open the system runs very fast giving more efficient work done... The mind clogged with more no of thoughts is more confused and inefficient, forget creative... Strength of making decision is very weak... which leads to wrong decisions being taken giving more frustration and more confusion... The mind is not at all stable if it is clogged with multiple thoughts...
   Vice versa if the mind is clear and only required no of thoughts are entertained then it can be the most productive, the most creative, most efficient in work... Now to be well understood bout thoughts... They are again based on the impressions which are carried in the Mind... There are "n" no of thoughts scattered all over the Universe... the one thought which is caught is according to its knowhow in a particular mind... the impressions... like a Vaccine... a small dosage of a particular virus is given so that the body is immune to that particular virus... Similarly the thoughts which are caught are based upon the previous impressions which are already present in the system... for eg... in a particular situation one person behaves in a certain way and in the same situation another person will behave in a certain way... Deeper the impression, less no of thoughts arise of a particular pattern, thus depriving one a broader vision of situation... This is what it is called a Particular person's Nature...
   Freedom comes to the Mind when these thought patterns are broken... By awareness a thought pattern can be broken... just by becoming aware of it before acting in a particular situation... the thought pattern is already broken if u don't act according to the pattern... become aware bout what more can be done in a particular situation will reveal another thought pattern... break that pattern to reveal more and more such patterns... This is the process of Unlearning... once this process starts, over a period of time the Mind is left with no set pattern except the ones which are required for the Mind to exist or survive... keep the body alive... This is the state of utter spontaneity...
 As Ashtavakra says "Acting Spontaneously"

AHO!!!!!!!!

Life - Simple or Complicated

How do u look at your life??? Is it simple or is it complicated... Ever occurred to you whether it is the Situations and other people who make your life either simple or complicated... Or is it you yourself... With the knowledge of the Self and knowledge of freedom Life can be very easy...
   When one is ready to drop the little feverishness which exists with your own Cravings and Aversions... Life is as Simple as it is... The more you dive deep into the cravings and aversions you will realize that there is nothing to crave for or to be averse to... Strange are the way's of the Mind... But it need this cravings and aversions to exist (As stated in my previous post Eureka)... because the immature mind does not know how it is to be Nobody or Nothing...
   To make one's life complicated all u need is Kutarka (stupid/negative Logic). If u see into Quantum Mechanics (Theory of Possibilities) which is known as Viparyaya in the Yoga Sutras by Patanjali... on one level it is a very Beautiful tool which can be used to judge a particular situation and keep the mind free from troubles... But on more subtle levels this Viparyaya is a bondage or an obstacle... A typical kind of tendency develops to judge each and every situation as well as Person... In this tendency the Mind, Intellect and the whole existence is all the more confused, thus making Life more and more complicated...
  This is a tool if you know how and where to use... But its an obstacle to ones growth if you get stuck in it... Get entangled in it... A tool to choose the most positive possibility and staying out of trouble or choosing the worst possible situation and preparing for it...
  The Wise one can make the most adverse or complicated situation into the most simple one....
  A Fool can make the Best of situation into the most complicated ones...

So the choice is yours.... To keep your life Simple or make it Complicated... :-)
