I'm realizing after careful observation of my mind, mind always like to raise alarms, create panic and likes to put it's teeth into uncanny, unreal and imaginative problems. I don't really understand if that's how it is programmed from the day one or just strongly rooted into it's habits cycle. I've set of problems. I don't really say they're big problems.
Their assumed significance is totally relative. I used to respond about the societal issues as part of collective voice. I think certain section or group is highly exploited by another group. Strong association or identification with those collective groups gives me I guess such impression. The result of such identification is hatred, self-pity and anger against the other group or myself.
Why anyone would like to assume a collective identity as belonging to such tribe,race, country,culture and region and so forth. Perhaps, I think it originates from our strong ego patterns. We always like to differentiate at every level with the other sentient being. We don't acknowledge about the singularity of total life on this earth. We don't invest in brotherhood, universal love and relationships. we like to be deluded by very trivial or temporary ideas. We like to destroy, hate and fight very quickly. We justify our acts by a skewed rationality and thinking which is in itself very short sighted. They make sure ends justify the means. The beauty of nature, life and eco system took millions of years to evolve, develop and to become perfect. We forget our origins, little time we have on this earth and just like to live in illusion assuming we live forever. Everything is subject to change. People fight, suffer, kill to propagate ideology and collective irrationality.
Today, we have around 200 countries on this blue planet. Each country has it's internal divisions. Still, there are abundant simmering cases of separatist movements, struggles happening around the world in the name of freedom and better life. Oppressor and oppressed are killing each other, bombing and destroying the planet.
Before i respond emotionally to such cases on the grounds of origins, habitations, ideological or whatsoever, I should remind myself we cannot control the outcomes of such cases by just being upset emotionally or by expressing. It doesn't serve in anyway. We all have to clearly understand we all evolve from single ancestor. We are all similar, alike and belong to one life. We should remember our origins as homo sapian from wild jungles of africa. Our physical differences like skin, color are adjusted based on the zones we thrived. We should never succumb for such traps of freedom, self-determination and exploitation. None can take away anything from here. Everything comes from here and everything goes here. All there in between is just fleeting. Remember, exploitation is critical component of evolution. With out predators in food supply chain, there is no proper balance in the system. Animals thrive on other animals, humans thrive on other humans. There is sense in actions of animals given their lack of intelligence.
For generations, humans have committed crimes in the name of religion, division and propaganda. Unfortunate and sad truth is what seems to be important today becomes irrelevant, obsolete over the generations. Each human individual has to understand all you can do to choose your attitude and surrender to what it is. Acceptance, patience and belief in the bigger picture of singularity of life, impermanence of things let the people respond in a effective manner and have peace.
Wars had been fought, destruction and turmoil all happened on this planet in the last generations, still happening in every corner of the world. everything is disguised in the name of freedom but crude reality is selfishness, money, power and self-agenda. Power mongers, lust for money and all other things drive people to maniacal acts in every direction.
I feel peaceful and calm when i remind myself everything i dabble in such activities is nothing but vain. everything comes and goes. Nothing is greater than compassion, love, empathy and sacrifice. "This shall too pass away" is a great motif. In hindu tradition, they say all you need in six feet of ground to bury your body. though you own whole earth, all you need at the end is just 6 feet of land when you pass away.
This planet has seen great kings filled with vanity who conquered whole earth, assumed they own it. Generations after, they're gone and new set of systems, people proclaim that they own the earth and this continues..
have peace..
Thanks
