In the
sea there’s no drop. Unless it’s taken out of its primordial abode.
Similarly, we, in quintessence,
are never out of “It” – What Is. All is One, Indivisible Whole. This Oneness of
Everything is “That”, which, the enlightened beings address as IT.
In due time, in the
process of seeking That Which Is, the Ultimate Truth, the “lesser” understanding
in the consciousness of meditating beings make them “see things”. One
experiences, witnesses the conceptual gods or divine figures of one’s own
making, or those heard of, knowingly or unknowingly. Usually, an intermediate
meditating seeker, at some time or another, as a consequence of prolonged
practice of remembrance of the Divine, is “blessed” by sightings of ethereal
entities or places, as residual “baggage” of one’s own inherited isms, faiths
and belief systems.
This is the realm where
messiahs and religions are born.
Mistaking these “lower”
visions to be the beginning and the end of it all, god-man-ship takes root in
mediocre, maybe sincere, beings. It is not as if they are lying. It’s just that
they start speaking knowing less. For there’s a lot more. Much, much more.
The “chosen” or “blessed”
one, the seeker who has followed all the rules of Oneness, especially the one
of non-violence towards “lower” beings - neither killing nor eating them - this being is taken “ahead” in time. If be
his or her karma.
In the pure consciousness
of the being, a worshipping devotee - not of this or that ism or deity but of
the Truth of the Whole - if be one’s destiny, then, the “is-ness” of What is,
takes hold. As would river the water.
Visions abound. And suddenly,
one day, at the least expected “non-existent” moment in no-thing-ness the being
witnessing these surreal visions, in a “non-happening” as if, finds itself to
be the “Vision” of the Single Eye.
This “is-ness” of the
above “happening” finds its “self” to be the Self of All “That” Is. This “nature”
of the-Thing-in-Itself looks around. And “sees” its “ I “ to be all that it
surveys. It realizes its “self’” to be All-ness of the Whole of What Is.
Thus, there’s no soul as
such!
All is One, Single,
Indivisible, Immanent “emptiness” and “fullness” of the Universal Oneness.
Whatsoever is, here or “there”, is but One Self. There’s no separate “soul” of
you or me! The “end” found by Yogis, Sufis or Free Mystics of an “advanced”
order is that at the primordial “beginning” is a Whole-ness; which, is, in
nature is an Inseparable Oneness of the Alpha and the Omega.
This is the Nature of the
Soul.
It is the Science of
Spirituality. All of us are born with the potentiality to find “IT”. But at a
given time, a rare enlightened being finds this “That”-ness of one’s own self.
For this end, to seek and find the “nature” of our “soul”, we are born. In “IT”
we must live, and die.
For, eventually, there’s
no you, them or I.
