Life and Learning
--------------------------
A growing up child full of awe and wonder, doesn't learn about life from the boring scriptural books taught in schools of learning and scholarship; instead sponges it in from the behavioral attitude of adults constantly hovering around it. As a result, the child grows up either “ Ego sensitive “ or “ Life sensitive “ .
Over the span of several decades of living this rare and blessed life, it gradually condenses and coalesces in conscious awareness communicating that in the boundless Cosmos ( अनंत ब्रह्माण्ड ) of which we are an integral presence, each individual Life is uniquely incomparable to any other, silently and involuntarily emitting self enriching messages of of Life.
Gradually, life or existence appears to be not an endless intellectual pursuit, but simply an inner self revelation or realisation.
The Creator of life and matter, space and time remains of necessity a perception of the perceiver. As a result, there is nothing like “ The Truth “ , rather simply “ A Truth “ . This seems to be the inner experiential wisdom of revered Seekers of changeless Truth of being and becoming.
A true Seeker of eternally changeless Truth has been traditionally referred to as a Sage, Saint, Rishi, Sufi, Fakir and with several alternative cultural terms; each referring to the unified and all inclusive perception of Life and Matter, Time and Space.
This is where intellectualisation of life stops, and internalisation begins. All barriers of separation vanish. The duality of my God and your God ceases to exist, and so does all conflict. Then only peaceful inner silence reigns supreme. In that silence, a Seeker of Truth reverentially asks of himself “ Who am I ?
An infant gazes at the Starlit sky simply in awe and wonder !
With the twinkling stars as the constant witness, Life is no one's exclusive right, but everyone's prerogative.
