Well...As usual I will be talking about my own thoughts right now.
Humans are definitely a beautiful yet strangely designed machine.
In this human structure, mind is an engine that can be conditioned to make the
machine work. I do sometimes wonder about the impact of external sources that
is taken into consideration, for example, social, cultural, environmental
impact on human mind. Technically these are the tools helpful for the
conditioning of human mind. It is in case possible that each individual human
mind or why only humans all living minds are a design and set in accordance
with each other on an space known as Earth. Can it have even a slightest truth
in it? If the answer is yes, then how can so many minds are managed so well.
The co ordination of absence and presence of individuals in an specific space
with a relevance to each other is beautifully calculated. A maths namely co
incidence do make me wonder about the possibilities of the probabilities of existence.
Sometimes certain things we humans do plan or decide which many a
times might not happen as intended, yet we struggle and fight hard with so
called circumstances to live a certain beliefs of our plans, still we land up
in the same space from where we started. A weird circular panorama is formed of
our illusions or more sophisticatedly in front of our eyes and we keep on
running towards it unnecessarily without reaching to an end until the human
form dies. As always the
conclusion is untendered.
When I stand and look from a bird's eye view from a large window of
my room while sitting comfortably and enjoying the exquisite view of the
nature's design. I can see a larger view of the existence with mountains,
unbuilt houses on top, a pond, green farms where farmers are busy ploughing the
lands for the next harvest, I do imagine that they might be singing a cheerful
song of happiness. The curvy roads with so called modernized features of
amenities and sustainability.
In one of these instances I see two cars coming from opposite
directions and both are unaware of other's presence on the road. Those sitting
in the cars might be enjoying the weather and serenity of existence as much as
I am while sitting near my window. The road is small and only one small vehicle
at a time can pass through it. It seems to me that both cars might be speeding
and my visual senses or it might be instincts that mentioned to me a major
chance for a collision to take place between both the cars from the
circumstances I am perceiving. The probability of all of them dying or badly
injured was extremely high. But those humans in the cars have no idea what is
going to happen in next few seconds. Though I am aware of the situation and the
resulting consequences yet I am incapable to do something about it. No matter
how loud I shout to stop them or try to run towards them and also I am aware as
what I am able to see that the vicinity is empty and no one is there to help them.
This feeling of known helplessness is terrible, probably worst one of its kind.
What am I suppose to do? Why in the world I am having the painful privilege of
bird's eye view. As a spectator, I am just watching, watching and watching
about what is going to happen.
Gifted with the design element of sensitive character, the pain of
about to watch the scene of death is excruciating. With my questions is
continuous progression, I do ask myself again and again, WHAT THE HELL I AM
DOING HERE. Where is my mind which is very proud about the intellectual
information it holds and thinks itself to be precious.
Is it possible for my mind to manipulate or change the occurrence
on the surreal level. After the accident has happened and most of them died,
what has happened to the mind of the deads. What happened to their thoughts,
where are they floating. It is the physical body which is dead, the material
and physical associations of this world are gone and dead, but where does the
mind gone. Mind as I think is not a physical aspect of human body, it is not a
brain. Yet we all tend to fall for the mystery of Mind and its Courage. The
thoughts of the mind, where do they go? Thoughts and ideas are just
wavelengths, what happened to them? Does mind travel? I have read about that a
soul changes its body on certain interval of time and can partly agree to it,
that a soul never dies. But my question is yet to be answered, where is the
mind, where are the numerous thoughts that were embedded in the minds of those
people who were once living and functioning to process their thoughts and
ideas.
Why I was standing there and watching them die, why the mental and
physical contradictions were so painful for me. The mental aspect of me why it
was merely an spectator and felt so
helpless to do anything. Everytime I think and visualise about dying I am
continuously intrigued by the questions that my mind puts up to various other minds
but at occasions they are left unanswered.
Does Soul have a Mind? What exactly is Mind? Where does Mind
exist? Is Mind an illusion or a fact? How Mind is made? My questions tends to
become endless and I find it hard to figure out its motives and answers. But on
individual note it is worth pondering upon, I do hope to find an answer for it
which surely will give more questions. Which makes me think that mind is a
weird maze and it never let you out of its claws made of thoughts.
Good thoughts. Answers to these questions can not be found on physical plane. It requires to lead a different existence than we normally do. Unless we have completed the cycle and gotten to a state where no more longings are left, except the longing to rid of this cycle, it is not possible to be out of it.
ReplyDeleteRead about Buddha. He is one of the persons who found answers to these and set out to help people in simplest terms. In short, he said, answers lie within us and there is no external source for it. To find these answers you have to endlessly explore your mind. Mind is cunning, when you attempt to explore, it'll throw many distractions along the way since it does not want to be explored. It is like cutting an iron rod, iron is tough, can not be cut easily. Enormous amount of energy and tough saw is required to cut it. Similarly, to control the mind and to have a true peek inside its workings, great determination is required. It takes enormous amount of practice and patience to get to that point.
Regarding being a spectator, that is our destiny, there is not much that can be done to help people in many cases similar to the case you described. We are spectators to others destiny because of our destiny and perhaps because there are hidden lessons. By looking at others suffering and ignorance, one should realize the suffering and ignorance of one's own self and that life is fleeting and nothing is permanent whether it is good or bad.
