We are , Who we think we are
All If we think we are this mortal body, mind and senses, then we are
subjected to a life of birth and death (Samsara). If we transcend into the
reality that we are just the perceiver or the witness of all the actions,
then we are the immortal, eternal light. Transcending to realize that we are
not this mortal body but the eternal Consciousness principle is Salvation or
Moksha or Nirvana or liberation or freedom.
All of us are flowing in that direction whether we like it or not. This is
the order of evolution. If we do break this flow disasters happens in life
in the form of diseases, pains, sufferings, just to hit us to go further in
the process of evolution. Many a times people suffer from serious set backs
in life and understand that the pain and suffering help some of them to
think and correct. Some may not correct hem and so had to undergo again pain
and suffering until they learn it right.
This is why we undergo sufferings in life. Diseases or accidents come in the
form to awake us from the deep slumber of ignorance. But when we encounter
pain and suffering in life we tend to take short cuts to overcome it and do
not learn from the mistakes. We think we are smart to forego the lessons to
be learnt. There is no escape for us from not realizing our own Self.
Our Journey ends when we realize our True Self. Till we realize our
true Self, we will under go all the sufferings and pain for one goal, Self
Realization.
It is like school children who are in pain and suffering when encounter with
examinations or tests. The reality is that these exams are not really to
torture the children, but to self evaluate their own understanding of the
subject. Similarly the pains and sufferings we encounter in life in not
meant to torture ourselves, but nature organizes that based on a set of laws
called "karma". The laws of karma are like exam rules and regulations.
Nature has beautifully organized based on these laws. The law of karma can
be given in one short proverb" what we sow we reap".
So if we take care of our health of the body and mind we reap benefits of
good health of the body and mind. If we misuse then we are going to suffer
correspondingly. Here is the catch, we take care of the body and mind only
when are strengthen our intellect and then slowly drift into the state of
awareness. To put in other words, all these health care tips are in fact to
drive us into the state of awareness. It is our laziness and our ego that
prevents us from taking this forward step.
