CAN SOUL BE SEEN TOUCHED OR FELT

CAN SOUL BE  SEEN TOUCHED OR FELT  ?

 

How to lead a life of purposeful in our short span.  This is what traverses the mind of the common man to millionaires via the monks and ministers.  Everybody thinks that ,  what  he/she  thinks is the most useful way of making life purposeful.  The common man never finds time to think and ponder.  The millionaire is everbusy in making his money grow bigger and bigger.  The  Saints /Seers are ever busy delivering sermons of how to make like purposeful or useful.  Sometimes they themselves are prisoners of  their own teachings.  It is very difficult to practice one ounce of a thing  , but very easy to preaches tonnes  of good and ideal things.  At the end of the day, people can never come out of their own self , which manifests from the day one. 

          The alluring world never leaves any body untouched.   Even the most idealistic people have been tempted to sway from the chooses path.  If that happens for a moment , You would never be the same again.  It may take years and decades of hard work and concentration to become a Yogi or Saint, but few minutes to loose your hard earned spiritual powers , by way of misuse or for immoral purpose. 

          Is the World real or unreal.  The answer is a clear no , the world is just an image of which does not exist . What the world sees as real is unreal and what the world knows as unreal is real in fact.  Can anyone ever know exactly as to , what happens in the  next few  minutes.  The answer is a clear no.  If this is so , why is that Saints and Yogis could foretell as  what would happen after 100 years.  This is due to the fact that,  only the five universal elements of earth , sky ,  air , water  and  fire  control the destiny of this earth.  Anything that has happened in the past, which is happening now and which will happen in future is inevitably with the foreknowledge of these universal elements.  If you could gain mastery of control over any one elements , the rest will follow you.  It is not that mastery over the universal elements is required for knowing things before hand,  but even a human being who has suppressed /controlled the inner self and his senses may be able to know things before hand.   The reasons being Speech , which is special to human species.

          Speech is for communicating things between human beings. But how the energy is used differs from individual to individual .  A person may be talking from morning to night uninterrupted , but of no purpose or use.  Another person may be sparingly using his vocal cord , in a day.  Does that mean speaking less  and less makes anything extra ordinary.  Of course the answer is clearly yes.  Reason being the precious energy / gifted power is used for making our energy levels either normal or on par with the nature.  This is explained that , Animals who have no faculty compared to speech, though they inevitably have a sense of communication among themselves, is not equivalent to speech.  Thus the energy saved this way by animals or other living things helps them to level their energy levels on par with the universal elements sometimes , though not always.   This is experienced in natural calamities or destructions.   Even a snake or other burrowing animals which are few feet below the ground can sense earthquakes or disturbances, just few hours before the disaster , but not human beings

 Human beings heavily rely on modern technology for communication to every purpose of life.   But the Saints / Yogis of the earlier not only communicated with their counter part in any part of the world using telepathy and transported themselves or any body  through teleport.   How could this happen is beyond scientific reasons or analysis. 

          The human beings of today are scientifically so advanced as to accomplish all things at touch of a simple button, but cannot control even their tongue or thought.   Nature can  never be mastered even 1000 years hence.  The fact being that what is  seen and looks real is unreal and what is real cannot be seen, felt and touched  with the normal senses.  The fact being that the senses which are a combination of the universal elements can never be mastered.  They can only be tamed.  And herein comes the Spirit or Soul , which is behind all the drama of the world.  But it can never take part in worldly actions, but the living things cannot exist without Soul.  Conclusion being Soul  which is a part of the Universal Soul can never be seen, felt or touched by living things though it still resides in them.   The Computer runs on power , yet Power  cannot be seen  , felt or touched , but only experienced. But the Yogis can experience the Soul. The reasons the Yogis /Saint are a part of the Cosmic scale , though on a different footing .

          If so,  whether Soul or life or one and same or are they different?  Wait and watch here.

PLEASURE AND PAIN

OM HUM HANUMATHE NAMAH

PLEASURE AND PAIN.

            Pleasure and pain are both sides of the same coin.  They cannot exist independently.  Their association is so intertwined and interdependent that only a YOGI /SAINT/INCARNATION  in human form can only be able to separate and see them apart.  That is why in Hindu mythology only the Swan is the bird which is used to describe the SAINT/YOGI.  A swan with its unique power can separate milk and water .  Similarly is the analogy that to say about Pleasure and pain.  The paradox of universe that when one form of life experiences Pleasure and the pain is experienced by the other form.  A simple way of explaining this analogy is experience of the senses:  can be sensory enjoyments or the sensory enjoyment of the palate.  You may experience delight is enjoying varieties of dishes , but the pain has been borne by the living beings that have become your food.   Just the beginning of human life is associated with pain and pleasure at one go.  While the mother experiences pain in giving birth to the baby, pleasure is experienced side by side for having continued the generation of having got an Offspring.   The ultimate step  human journey Death is an experience of pain and pleasure.  While the offspring, relatives , dependents  experience pain of having lost their dear one , the departing soul is happy of having ended this journey with all the troubles associated with old age and beginning a fresh and energetic journey elsewhere.   But the final question is “ if pain and pleasure are so intricately associated with this world or human life, is there no end for it. And if not what is the final way out.   “  .  Though all major religions from Hinduism to Christianity speak of life of renunciation , unattached , honest life , is it the final way out.  Yes , but not all people can follow this life.  All religions preach love  , love your neighbor, love everybody , it is practically possible.  Yes, but this is a path of journey similar to a fable where a monkey which climbs  two feet up but falls by four feet downwards.

WHAT IS HAPPINESS ? WHETHER HAPPINESS CAN EVER BE ACHIEVED IN THIS HUMAN LIFE

OM HUM HANUMATHE NAMAH

What is happiness ?

Whether happiness can ever be achieved in this human life?

Happiness is a state of mind and body where the mind and body feel that it is a state to be tagged to for ever. But human life is so complicate and intricate that Happiness even if achieved cannot be sustained for long.  The reason being human body and mind crave for more and more of it or looses interest in things already in hand.  Basically this is due to the illusion that Happiness is in things around you or attached to you, which is not.  A lover lounging for his love may not sustain the same interest when once they are married or after a period of time. The reason being happiness not available in things around us or attached to us.

There is  a small parable in India that, the Muskdeer , which is famous for its famous musk aroma things that it is somewhere else and runs and runs in search of it , only to be hunted by its poachers.  The paradox is that , the fragrance is well under its belly.  So is human life , where human beings run after worldly pleasure under the delusion that Happiness is which is in things around them or in the worldly pleasures , only to become dejected in the finally.

The reasons for the aimless pursuit is not within reasons .  Human life is a journey through various stages of life , where each stage has its own attractions of worldly happiness.  A kid of four years is happy with chocolates , candies thinking that possession them is the way to happiness.   A boy /girl of early teens is very much engrossed in looking beautiful/  to be more intelligent than his /her friends .  A man /woman in his early twenties is very busy in achieving academic achievements or showcasing his /her talent or securing job in good organization with good salary.  Then comes the life of a householder where earning is the prime concern.  At each stage of life life is a run for mirage of happiness .    But like mirage , the happiness is never at a static place and goes on changing ever.  Ultimately, when hardly few people seem to learn that life is a big mirage, it is too late.

            Happiness is well within every human being.  It only needs to be discovered  and sustained.  This is what  the Hindu philosophy more  clearly  manifested by Lord Krishna in  Sri Bhagavadgita..  The world is an illusion or ‘MAYA” where what looks real is unreal and what looks unreal is real.  But it is far from the scientific way of knowing things .  In science what is not proved is not real or not in existence.   Has anyone ever wondered that what makes human life/ life  possible.  It is the force of divinity in every living being which is the source of sustenance , which cannot be perceived with even best of scientific gadgets.  This is what is called “ SOUL” in every living being.  But a word of caution, it has nothing to do with the actions of the living creatures.  Its purpose is only to sustain the life and nothing more nothing less.  What we see as actions of all kinds of all living thins are the manifestations of the intellect / brain .  But mind is where the actions of brain create a sense of code /language for the living things.

            Whether Happiness can really be achieved in this world.  Absolutely yes but, not by attachment but by detachment towards worldly  things  and turning the mind inwards towards the omnipresent Soul within .  This is a process which cannot happen overnight or  over a year or over a decade.  Turning mind and body inwards will certainly make the human beings happy , but that is not the end of all  .  Attainment of everlasting happiness  or bliss what is the goal of every human beings.  This is what every religion from Bible to Bhagavadgita speak of . heaven or hell . This is where visiting holy places, reciting holy books and doing  religious practices , doing charity work come into picture.  But these are only the fundaments principles of  conduct to be followed  on the long and arduous journey of  attaining eternal bliss. 

            How  Happiness in this world or  in a higher plane  eternal bliss  can be achieved is a point of debate of all religions , which say ours is the only religion which can never be .  As no human beings are similar , the sacred scriptures are only the guiding principles , every human being has to work out his way for eternal bliss.  All religious books, practices  are only the guiding principles on the path to eternal bliss.  Putting simply , the car is your body , your mind is your driver, the road is your religious  books, practices, but finally the destination is to be worked out with a perfect coordination of body, mind and religion.
