Staring into infinity

It occurred to me that people are so conditioned that they are unable to notice the vast infinity in front of them, all they are concerned about is either their own meagre life. What does your life consist of let us just see, the student life will only consists of studying something or playing games and sports and receiving advice from your parents that you should be like this or you should be like that. That is all nothing more than that. Either there is a little bit of family life or job or a relationship and so on and so forth having many expectations. We are so concerned with all of this. That when infinity is staring at us we are not even willing to notice this , this is really amazing. People do all sorts of stupid things like taking drugs, smoking up , smoking , drinking , sex and so on just to get into some sort of trip nothing more than that. They are not concerned with anything other than their own existence, they miss that which has given a chance to the whole of existence. What is more profound to notice that which has given a chance to the whole of existence or to just look at our own meagre lives? We actually consider ourselves to be so significant, actually speaking we are no more significant than an ant. It is because we give ourselves so much of significance that we miss this completely. Just being aware of this infinity is more than enough , nothing more is required to have happiness. No special type of experience is also require  for this . One more reason why we do not tend to notice this infinity is due to the fact that it has become very obvious so obvious that we cannot and say wow. Once you realise how profound this is nothing will matter to you. What is the infinity I am talking about which is noticeable and yet we are unable to appreciate it, what is it ? Let us assume that the answer is God, what is God ? will be the first question, there is no answer since one concept of God does not match another. So the answer is not God. The answer is very simple it is space. When appreciating space we know it to be unique as there is nothing comparable to space. Space has given a chance to the whole of existence to be in it. Let us say that science is telling us that space is expanding, the question will be where is space expanding, that also has to be in space. Hence space is some thing infinite and we are looking at  it every day and ignoring it not appreciating it.


Now people will say that "I do not have the time for all of this, I need to work and get bread on the table idling and thinking of such things are not for me, I am more practical. Thinking or appreciating such things will get us no where. " To this I answer that 1st of all, all we care for in life is joy, nothing else we care except for joy. So all utility is for joy in fact if a person is miserable he or she is willing to give up life itself. So all of existence is only for joy. So let us ask ourselves, are we joyous with our own lives ? are we satisfied completely with what we have ? Do we ever stop complaining about anything let it be family, job , relationship. Is this not causing stress ? For this very reason it will become necessary to appreciate such things otherwise life is completely a bore with no juice. We ask for something and even if it happens we do not enjoy it for long. In fact reason why the relationships break is due to expectations, it just becomes a monotonous life.

I am giving you a chance to appreciate this infinity, what are the byproducts of this appreciation

1.Freedom from stress

2. Misery is far away.

3.Addictions will drop of their own accord

4. A fresh and new life is poured into life itself.

No meditation is required just appreciate this infinity, it is very simple very very easy, you are all the time looking at some thing which is giving a chance to the whole of existence is this not amazing ? But this is not amazing to people, a man showing miracles is amazing to people. Some one having psychic powers is amazing to people but nonetheless these miracles and powers are all within time and very limited in nature but  this space which is the very support of existence even for all miracles is always noticed by us, this is amazing. There is no need of drugs or LSDs to appreciate this just be aware of this fact more than enough. You will not look at it as what can I get out of it, you will just say that looking at it this way is joy.

Atheistic materialists and Theists

There has always been a tug of war between Atheism and theism, Atheists always have arguments against God, and theist have arguments for God. The oldest known Atheistic materialistic school of thought is Charvaka. Unfortunately we do not have any record of their original writings but there thought is completely outlined in the Madhava's Sarvadarshanasamgraha. The only difference between the atheists of today and charvakas is that the Charvakas do not accept any thing beyond the senses. However today's atheists are not that different but they are actually kind of forced to accept things beyond the senses otherwise they cannot accept today's scientific knowledge. The argument is same whether it be old or new, awareness of consciousness is nothing but a property of the body nothing more than that. Also scientific research also seems to point to this, many scientists even say that consciousness is located in space and time. Hence there is no soul or God. Spirituality,religion and so on are baseless and meaningless as per them. There are many arguments made against this and then there are counter arguments which keep going on . However one thing is worth noticing , just as the fanatic is aggressive so is the atheist or materialist. If the materialist is not aggressive we will not see communists being aggressive. A person who is always willing to learn and know more things will never be aggressive, this aggressive attitude shows that both are set to prove out their own theories , the fanatic believer is going out to prove his own point so is the materialist. If the materialist knows something to be true he or she need not be aggressive since it is natural for people to be ignorant and die with ignorance  , so he need not bother even if some one argues against it he need not bother him, he can just say ok that is the way you think. So is the case with a believer, but since this is not the case. Since both the atheist and theist are not willing to say I do not know , both are unwilling to explore always saying I am right hence both materialists and atheists are believers in their own theories. Set out to convert the other person to their theories. So I conclude that materialists are also believers.

A simple technique to calm the mind.

It was once asked by some one that what is the way to divert my mind, it generally becomes very difficult for people to divert their minds from some thing and that no matter how much ever you try to divert it your mind is not diverted from that thing.

Many people will give you advice but generally does not work. If I am angry with some one the 1st thing any one tells me is that do not be angry, but the more people tell  me not to be angry the more angry I become, so any advice or restriction put on you will act as a restriction on you, also using techniques of the mind to calm down your mind will not work. As your mind is already agitated and you are in no position to think. So I will be introducing a small trick that you can use in Yoga to calm your mind. Many Yogis also recommend this.

According to the Yogis if you cannot control your mind try controlling your breath, the control of the breath will automatically control the mind. This technique can be used even for concentration, if you want to achieve single pointed concentration this technique will be very useful.

Following is the technique

On your right hand join your middle finger  and your ring finger and then close your right nostril with your thumb. Breath in with your left nostril for 1 count, you may use any mantra as the count. Now hold your breath for atleast 4 counts, in this case also you may repeat your mantra. Once this is done you may release the thumb from your right nostril and then join your middle and ring finger and close your left nostril and then breath out for 2 counts or repeat the mantra twice.

Now please note that this can be done in the ratio of 1:4:2, that means you may breath in from the left nostril for 4 counts, hold your breath for 16 counts and then leave your breath for 8 counts from the right nostril.

So how many counts you take completely depends upon your capacity, I would advice that please do not go beyond your capacity. Since you will make sure that this technique done properly, you will be concentrated and automatically you will become calm.

Also note that while doing this you will be totally involved and will not like any disturbance.

I really hope this technique helps people.

Misunderstanding among people

Generally people in order to start a conversation with me ask me what is enlightenment, or what is the way to enlightenment. If asked what will you gain from enlightenment , many weird answers are given but for these answers make no sense.

The reason is very simple what ever people do not know they are not ready to accept that they do not know, and they would bullshit others as well as themselves, this is the same with believers and fanatics. What ever people do not know they start believing with out actually understanding what it is, if some one says that I am trying for a job or a girl it is understandable, but no one can ever understand what the hell does it mean to try for enlightenment. If some one says I am trying for enlightenment what do you understand from it ?

Also the problem is that believing in the most weirdest of things and giving up your own intelligence is being passed off as Yoga or Spirituality. Suppose some one says that there are 6 chakras in your body and that there are nadis through which energy flows, what will you understand from it. All you can take is that ok this guy is telling us some thing that is all, it will not make any sense to you. If it does not make any sense to you, you will either believe it or you will disbelieve it. I would say the person who believes will be an idiot, since he or she is not using their intelligence as a result they will become hallucinatory and imagine what ever ridiculous things possible. Atleast the person who does not believe is employing his intelligence, so bottom line is that if we want to know some thing we must admit our own ignorance to it. If spirituality or Yoga comes to people they already have too many impressions and have all sorts of stupid ideas.

Another stupid idea with in peoples heads is that they will gain moksha if their soul goes and merges with the Supreme soul, first of all no one has seen the soul forget about the Supreme soul or God, nor has any one seen this soul merge with the Supreme soul so this is nothing but the result of imagination.

I have started this blog to present people with the possibility of always being happy, but before that I will have to take out the bullshit ideas present in people's heads.
