It’s not a wall, this body, separating the world outside
that our illusionary ego, the sense of “I” makes us believe, exclusively separating
the self from the other. There are no separating walls. They appear so on
account of the conditioned mind and the limited perceptions thanks to our sense
organs which interpret the fragmented parts perceivable to them in the forms of
feelings, appearances and shapes at certain frequencies. The latter are nothing
but concentrations of energies at particular frequencies. Otherwise, it is the
same cosmic energy, vibrating, evolving, transforming in endless chains. It’s
nothing but an ever existing evolution, with balancing counterpoints all along
the way. The apparent creation and destruction, the dualities, are nothing but
the balancing acts as cosmic design unfolds. You can compare it to a pole-wielding
rope-walker. The movement is onwards, but at each step the pole sways between
the dualities to manage the balance and movement ahead.
So let’s start with the cemented identities of the
separation of the self from the big scheme out there. At least accept that
there are windows in the wall. Accept that it’s not an unbreakable stone wall
around your flesh and bones. Open the windows and let the light flood in. By
taking windows as walls, we just keep on piling a crust of illusions around our
apparently exclusive self. Then it becomes a fortress, created solidly by the
mind. A dark, sooty psychological crust around the self. It’s a narrow,
confined world of insecurities, jealousy, self-centeredness, hate and
complexes. The things which should hardly matter become life-defining
parameters. Under the tar of illusions, our real self, our real potential, our
gateway to success, plus peace, lies dormant in the dark.
The crust becomes too hard. But its brittleness increases
with its thickness with the passage of time, as our age and experience tell us
later. It is bound to crack. And when it does, we feel the pain. Our
assumptions of happiness and success turn out to be flimsy and childish. It
seems we just ran after a mirage. No wonder we die in pain and agony.
So guys start hammering down the crust. Practice opening
the windows in the illusionary wall. Let the let pour in. It’s there,
everywhere, the real you, with your potential of greatness and peace. As much
as you pursue dreams in a competing world, return home to your real self in the
evening for rest and repose. That is your root, the real origin. Nourish it.
Leaves, branches and trunk are important. But these are the manifestations of
the potential of your roots which lie there in the soil of unity and totality
of one universal energy going on and on in countless transformations, following
the same laws, diferent transformations at each stage. So nourish your roots to
the real self. The branches will be sturdy, the leaves healthy and shiny.
Go
and embrace the tree near you. It is the same energy, utilizing the five primal
matters like yours, manifesting its tree form at a slightly different frequency
that yours.
