Within the prison of your world appears a man who tells you that the world of painful contradictions, which you have created, is neither continuous nor permanent and is based on a misapprehension.
He pleads with you to get out of it, by the same way by which you got into it. You got into it by forgetting what you are and you will get out of it by knowing yourself as you are.
- Nisargadatta Maharaj
It is a crazy time do you enjoy it? I mean when time is not crazy. Time does not exists, a change in your perception creates time. I want to write about truth, you may take it or not, it is up to you.
Happiness is your choice and your attitude is a key
Your happiness is in direct relation with a sense of how you view
yourself and the world you live in. You take a pose, a stance and lead your
life that position most of the time defending that attitude.
The
attitude is everything in this life. If you consider something important then
your attitude will be serious toward that particular event, person or
whatever.
Your attitude is based on your beliefs.
Do you believe that this world existed before you were born?
You don't even know when you are born. You have seen the photos,
heard stories, your mother and father told you. But you, you don't have the
experience of being born.
Wrong knowledge about this things is
causing all the suffering in this world. You simply do not know truth. Truth
is simple and terrifying at the same time. You need to investigate and see it
in plain sight.
You live life with a mistaken identity
Taking yourself as a body with the thoughts, feelings and emotions, you are convinced that you're born on certain date when you have given a name which you proudly carry on.
In your childhood, you've collected some beliefs and formed the attitudes
towards people, things and the world in general... and you go on living until
you get old and finally die.
The life with a mistaken identity is
based on fear. Because you don't know who you really are, believing in your
personality is a cause of great suffering.
So what really has happened?
In an ecstasy of your mother and father the seed of consciousness
is planted in your mother's womb. From there a new formed body grows and after
9 months it is delivered to the world. The body is growing by food, and in the
beginning the consciousness - the sense of "I am", is not yet there.
In one single moment, somewhere when body was 2 or 3 years old the
sense of "I am" appears and it is said you have gain consciousness. You
are aware of yourself, you don't know who you are but you know that you're
something that you exist.
The sense of presence, the sense "I am", consciousness, is felt due to food you eat. The essence of food is the
sense of "I am". It is a general sense of presence, just like air or space.
In
that moment, when you first sensed "I am", when you have become aware
of your existence your universe is created, your world is solidified and your
attention is developed.
You're not born in an existing world, you create the world in every single
moment
The world you create is an imagination based on desires, just like the sense
of "I am", which is the original, primordial illusion.
What is born
are three states of consciousness: waking, dreaming and deep sleep.
On
top of that you collect and build "your" personality which is based on
identification with the world. And this is your wrong identity that is causing
you to suffer.
"I am" sense is temporary imagination making
you aware of existence.
You create universe you're living in, in
every single moment of existence. It's the power of your imagination and
desires, so don't be afraid of your creation.
Don't consider yourself to be a person with a mind. You are not that. You are
not "I am" sense, you are the One who has this sense.
Do not
frame yourself and say this is me, this is what I am. Don't define yourself,
you are "not this and not that". Nothing you see or feel is you. Stop
suffering and turn towards truth.
Investigation of these facts is the very purpose of your birth.
