Guest guest Posted April 23, 2005 Report Share Posted April 23, 2005 “All roads, Arjuna, lead to ME. “ If we inquire within or with-out it can make no difference because there is no difference – all is the Self. When we “inquire” within it is called some sort of meditation. But if we look outside, with detachment, we can Realize that the mind is what it thinks. If “we” can accept this then we are Self-realized. Only the mind can complicate Self-realization into being something more than: the mind is what it thinks. If we look at the outside world with detachment …. if we seek absolutes in the outside world it becomes a joke: the more we seek absolutes the more obvious it gets that there can be no absolutes. This, more than anything else, has to tell us that something is very-very wrong with the mind’s outside world-universe. When particles cannot even be particles because they also have to be waves – when energy cannot be energy because it is also mass and when light cannot have time … when we cannot pin down a particle/wave because of the Uncertainty Principle…. WHEN THE VERY FABRIC OF THE MIND’S OUTSIDE REALITY IS BASED ON this UTTER UNCERTAINTY – then the outside world has to follow and there cannot be any absolutes, just one absurdity/uncertainty after another that the mind takes seriously. IT has to: because the mind is what it thinks – be it absurdity or maya; or seriousness, the karma we call “reality,” the universe. There is no end to the mind’s absurdities. But only because it is what it thinks. INQUIRE with detachment into any facet of human endeavor and you will find absurdity on limitless levels of absurdity. For example: Healthcare has nothing to do with “health.” But since the mind is what it thinks healthcare can save lives and do miracles that keeps “me and my loved ones" alive and "healthy" with drugs and operations …. etc. Anything the mind wants it will create. But if one INQUIRES with detachment --without judgment -- healthcare has to be what all minds think: so it has to be wonderful and at the same time it has to be a racket that makes organized-crime respectable. Whatever the mind thinks/wants. 911 – Again whatever the mind wants. 911 was/is a vicious act of barbarism by terrorists. And it also gives us a very valid question: how did the terrorists implant all the explosives into three NY skyscrapers so that they could IMPLODE because TWO airplanes cannot make even one building implode and two-planes certainly cannot make three implode? AGAIN whatever the mind wants it will find in the outside world. IS THIS A COINCIDENCE – or is it an OBVIOUS RULE called Advaita? INQUIRE into the outside world can only find conflict – when a “person” finally realizes that this conflict is just the mind, and thus has nothing to do with the “outside” – then the world turns into an illusion, hallucination, maya and life becomes a dream. Take the outside world seriously and it will be an insufferable and incessant cesspool of conflicts and dualities called karma. But…. but: did the holocaust happen? It had to happen , all the evidence proves that it did happen. Holocaust museums prove that it obviously happened … but to a Nazi it did not happen. And only the Jew that could care less is truly Awake, Self-realized - just like the LAST KING of the Jews called Jesus was/is Self-realized, and also Buddha and Ramana, and YOU are Self-realized. And only your mind, thoughts, can think otherwise. And so the TRUTH IS: Advaita -- On limitless levels and to fathomless depths Nothing can ever be what it appears because Everything is the Same.
