From time immemorial since the advent of human civilization two things have
become the most important criteria for being human. One is the advent of material
civilization along the development of homo-sapien choices. The other is the spiritual
advent for humanistic realizations. Both proceeded to search the Free Will.
The biggest question about human mind is about the origin of these two criteria. The
origin of the two criteria is of course the search for and discovery of Free Will. What
is this Free Will? What is this freedom that people are searching for, if they already
have it or if they are never to attain it? Material advent of a homo-sapien mind
recognizes it as Freedom of Choice. The human advent of the spiritual world calls it
Liberation.
If you allow the freedom of choice that moves in the objective path you get bound to
desire which is farther bound to many things that designs your satisfaction. Spiritual
advent calls for liberation from so called freedom of choice and recognizes freedom
of choice being the root cause of material bondages which does not enable a
subjective freedom or free thinking. If the mind is preoccupied in the mode of hunting
material desirable ends then where is the freedom of mind from bondage of such
desires and fixed ends to them?
But no one can ignore the importance of both the parallels equally in conforming the
structure of life. Even recognizing subjectively, I am not the body, neither the vital
consciousness, nor the psychological becoming, not even the judgmental reality or the
identity at the end of it, Adi Shankara still preached his truth with the identity of The
Self through the judgements of his intellect, the mind to choose through
discrimination and reject through renunciation, writing hymns of emotional out flow
of vital consciousness and established four monasteries and a new great enterprise that
claims everything of the material world to be illusory. What a dramatic irony!
Buddha found the Truth to be Void still He preached, allowed monasteries to come up
that would need to survive on the support of verily the material world and its
prospects. The final judgement of the Vedas and the Vedantas are coming to the
conclusion that Truth is not a matter of speech or mind, still we have gathered round
with a lot of importance to speak and think about it today here in this congregation!
The world Shamans or Nature worshipers and Naturalist psychics have not stepped
down from using the products of science or scientific industrialisations that have
disturbed the Natural balance of the five-elements. Continued mining from the time of
metallurgical age till today has disrupted the natural balance of the layers of Earth and
has created complex situations in the frequency of mass and gravitation creating
particular diseases and earthquakes. Since city-life civilization continued sewerage
into rivers, and barrages, dams have interrupted the flow of water through the rivers
and have created diseases and misbalance in the energy flow of Water causing
disturbances in rains and hence either draughts or floods. Since Industrial Revolution
the modes of kinetic energy have been handled in various ways to make a great
change in the Fire element which is the balance of potential energy to kinetic energy
that have been responsible for various newer diseases and psychological disturbances.
We can take the serious condition of Japan and its technical height creating nuclear
disasters in human life and society. Since the time of industrial advents the chemical
outcomes have disturbed the ecological balance ending up in severe pollution of the
Air element which has creating serious diseases and intellectual disturbances. The last
resort the Sky element which is the ethereal layer has been polluted by Internet webs
creating brain cancer, unfamiliar diseases in different kinds of plants and animals and
disturbances in Identity crisis. Human freedom of choice, have aggravated the natural
evolutionary process by creating hybrids, horticulture species, plastic and nuclear
weapons. Is there a Liberation from it?
Is this advent for Freedom of Choice or Liberation simply a farce of human
perception, or mysticism? Which way you will once again feel free to choose the
same paradox? If you call it farce, everything in the dual world being under the spell
of illusory Maya, then let us laugh at each other with our free hearts that we have
congregated to give most importance to this farce if you feel bad about it and choose
to call this paradox mysticism then let us take the responsibility of explaining it to
ourselves first whether we are ready to look into the face of paradox and find out
whether the Truth is Reality or Reality is different from Truth.
Is spirituality free from materialism, or, materialism free from spirituality? To answer
it Lord Nagarjuna used his logic of dependable origination. This logic comes to the
paradoxical fixation of Reality being Truth in a polarized conditioning in the process
of cosmic evolution. The thought of Nirvana originated in the Buddha Mind as a
contra-thesis from suffering the material world. While from the view of Nirvana this
material existence is nothing but a temporary projection originating from The Void
which is essentially the nature of Nirvana. So Nirvana being the origin of Samasara or
the material world and at the same time Samasara being the origin to strive for the
state of Nirvana, both is perceptual standards of concepts arising from or dissolving
into each other. Nagarjuna called it Shunyata which translates as Voidness.
Voidness is neither negation nor position it is a term for the Neutrality of Existence as
it is. It is the sense of any mathematical number being supported equally by both
negative and positive values comes to the reality of zero in its essential nature. This is
Being in Becoming but Nothing. Everything gets translated into Consciousness.
Consciousness is the essential substratum of everything in duality or non-duality.
Consciousness cannot be apprehended by perception but can be perceived through
Consciousness itself. This school of realization found The Truth to be equally Reality
which is the core of science as a subject and called this view as Vijnanavada or The
concept of Science. Nagarjuna developed the psycho-psychic practice of it and termed
it as Acintayoga or the polarized Oneness beyond perception.
To bring it into perception is to follow the track of experience of Such turning to a
definite structure of perception coming up to judgment, flowing into thoughts and
feelings to a materialized spirituality. The structure is such that global spiritualists will
be agreeing in the understanding of it as the global reality:
REVELATIONS OF SAHAJA
Yellow of Earth and Blue of the Sky make Green of Life. The Green of Life is the
paralleled Truth of Body-Mind Oneness. The Body-Mind Oneness is the ground of
Ideal Balance for one Human to be Common. The Discipline of Earth and the
Liberation of Sky in Oneness is the Limit for being a common man and a common
woman. Equality of the both shows the Equanimity between Duality of body and
Non-Duality of mind balanced in The Great Balance of the Equipoise practicing lifefull samadhi and Samadhi-full life. It is Easy Awareness which is verily to be Carefree
about the caring ego without being irresponsible. Love is the Equipoise that equates
the moral expectations and expectations of un-conditioned freedom. The voice of the
Balance is Conscience.
Self. There is no expression possible without Self. The Self has a tendency to become
personalized and hence an identity. The perception of identity is no more honest, is no
more spiritual, it is philosophy. Philosophy can lead to the false bliss of selfhypnosis, which can create further perception oriented experiences which may appear
as spontaneity but not authentic spontaneity.
The experience of bliss flowing in the structure of spontaneity, from abstract to
concrete, materializing spirituality, expresses itself as the words of clarity from the
lips of The Guru / Master. The impression of the disciple from the reflection of
Revelation of The Guru can flow in a disciplined and structured way in order to attend
Spontaneity created in the process of cosmic evolution, to five-elemental structural
evolution, to earth evolution holding the five-elemental structure, to life evolution, to
human evolution, to evolution of human perception. The effort of the disciple flowing
through the structure of alertness to awareness to carefree-ness is the process of
attending spontaneity. Carefree-ness is the non-perceptual state of equilibrium of
impressions and expressions that can simultaneously hold The Void and Evolution.
The Truth of The Void reflects as the Self of the Being. The Self reflects as the
Becoming being No-thing. This illusory paradox is the spine of spirituality which
people unknowingly recognize as mysticism. The Primordial Energy evolving as both
mass and kinetic energy with a structural polarization of self-conflict is creating the
Reality. The Truth as The Void or The Primordial Energy remains as it is, is
undisturbed.
Guru reaches the disciple in the expression and the disciple reaches The Guru in the
reflected impression.
Consciousness self-creates faculties of consciousness. Between form and
formlessness runs The Sahaja. The Voidness is Sahaja where The Truth of The Void is
The Reality of Eternity.
