The Supreme Being

Another day with a wonderful beginning.

What I had missed out mentioning yesterday was Sanskar or Resolve. The Sanskar aspect of our soul is where we assimilate our feeling and generate our aura. The aura which defines us and puts a tangible reference to who I am and how I am recognised to another human being.

Often our life changes in a manner where we play the reactive game rather than the active game which could rephrase ones identity from a Human Being to a Human Doing. The new reference applicable in direct proportion to what ones body demands rather than allowing the soul to dictate and direct our way of life. This is a surrender of our resolve to the wants and demands of our body. The demands of the body and oftentimes our surroundings can be construed upon as negative energy and we need to empower and awaken our intellect to bring forth the right thought and convert it into a fruitful action.

I remember reading a quote which said.. "Everytime you feel lazy to do it, remember the reason why you began doing it". I feel this statement significant in the current scenario to help me understand and assimilate these ideas.

Speaking more on the soul, it is a form of energy which has originated from the incorporeal world and is a Meta-physical element. An incorporeal world defined as a world that is away from us and completely unique compare to the corporeal world where we human beings exist. The location of the soul in our body is defined as the spot between our eyebrows and often referred to as the third eye. Today we look at and recognise each human being through instruments (our body) and assimilate information. Meditation is the process to awaken the third eye and look at the being in every human.

Each being has generated from the supreme being, the Param Athma. The relationship our soul has with the Paramathma is one of a Father and Son with a common link running through us.We could consider the Supreme being as one without a body and whose levels of power are consistently unlimited. We human beings have the same powers but in variable inconsistent levels the reason being we move through a life and death cycle and utilise this energy for our requirements. This energy can however be drawn from the Supreme Being through meditation.

These physical world contains the five elements : Air, Water, Fire, Water and Ether (the sky) which serve the human soul and the qualities of the soul are Purity, Love, Power, Peace, Happiness, Bliss & Knowledge.

Human - Being

It has been an amazing day talking to an intellect.

The word intellect brings to it new meaning. Ones thought process is simply amazing.

Human - Being

We are all split in two. An energy which drives us and a body. The words human being is self explanatory which shows there is a being, a soul, an existence which drives everything and the body that we possess is nothing but a vessel for this energy.

This being is an immeasurable quantity which cannot be defined. We assume this energy to reside in the central portion of our head between the pituitary and hypothalamus as a dot of light, a dot of energy.

The human body is the vessel this energy has chosen on earth. It makes you think about the possibility of rebirth and existence in general.

This being of energy, our soul, has the three aspects of mind, intellect and resolve. The mind is what keeps generating thoughts in a very random order which can be used or not. The intellect, or the conscience is what tells us if the thought is to be accepted, acted upon or just rejected. Resolve being the portion of us which acts on thoughts processed and filtered through our intellect. Many a time, these thoughts bypass our intellect and we act on these thoughts leading to brash actions.

A good example to consider this is where a driver loses control of his vehicle and the reaction to the action is something that we often end up repenting on.

Listening to Mr. Barathi helped me realise the importance and understanding our elders have had on our life. The very simple explanation for this is written down in our prayers which we have failed to understand. "protect me in my thoughts and in my words" which shows a dearth of intellect and prayer for want of more. The phrase "I need to reorganise my thoughts". Wisdom definitely comes with age and the ability and drive to ponder on ones thoughts and derive suitable resolve helping us to act rather than react. Our way of life needs to be defined by us rather than having the necessity to appease and live according to the demands of our surroundings. To rather than expend our energy on non perfect or ill fitting ventures and actions, to seek and perform those best suited to us.

I summarise todays discourse in these words "the capability to act rather than react"
