Untouched. Unharmed. Unborn.

If you seek from the window of knowledge, you will only know what can be known.

If you want to know the intangible aspects of your being, you will have to look beyond the framework of philosophy.

Deeper than the body and breath, deeper than the mind could ever perceive.

The question of the future will always remain in the future.

Worries of the past will always remain in the past.

What is needed for the present is for you to be here in the present.

Humanity has put a lot of emphasis on knowing.

We felicitate the people who have made discoveries and put garlands on the neck that speak like a parrot.

The knowledge has become the rope, the tide in our hands.

Baring us from drawing inspiration from the vast emptiness of the universe within.

And keeping us on the known ground of the information.

Sings and symbols that only keep us on the road, and never put us on the path of spirituality.

Don’t go there, don’t swim, don’t do this and don’t do that.

As a child, you were constantly warned about things you couldn’t do.

You were bombarded by the reminder that you are not supposed to be where you are supposed to be.

Many unfortunate ones, were told that their existence is a mistake and their individuality is a lie.

By the parents, by the fundamentalists and by the philosophers.

You were given a lens and told that beauty can only be gazed at from the frames of that lens.

Whom you make love with, whom you are friends with, and what colour flag you bear are judged from these frames by the narcissists.

We have gone to the mars and yet we are to take a foot inward, towards truly knowing who we are.

Because we are afraid of the unknown.

The one thing that makes us common is unknown.

We are afraid of going astray from the herd.

To explore our individuality beyond the societal notions and communal interface.

It takes courage to turn blind towards knowledge, religion and society and introspect the nature of being without the conditioning of the mind.

To know yourself is to know that you can not be known.

To be with yourself is giving up the zest of being someone else and even yourself.

How can the sun become a sun and the moon become a moon?

They are what they are.

Nothing good about it, nothing bad about it.

Just the way it is.

Maturity is to accept things in their true nature. It talks an open heart to accept yourself and your true nature as it is.

I am what I am.

Uncaused, Unknown and Omnipresent.

No face to identify and no body to be claimed as mine.

You’re but not yours.

Familiar if looked upon without a reason and Unfamiliar to the naked eye.

Stay in this vast abyss of emptiness. Beginingless and neverending.

You just joined in with the body, your being is older than that.

You will drop this body and still, you will exist in some form and energy in this universe.

∗ ∗ ∗

Liberate your mind, and there is no birth and death. You are free from the suffering.

Seek not what can be known, be introspective.

Don’t look for answers in the scripture and religious text, be mindful.

Be silent and your speech will be purified.

Be still and you will find yourself where you are.

Live with it, marinate your soul in the divine.

The existence of life on the earth is a miracle, beyond reasoning, knowledge and the mind.

It’s okay not to know, as not knowing is knowing everything.

It’s fine if you are not walking in the footsteps of your teachers and forefathers.

True breakthroughs are made on the path that has never been taken before.

Be true to yourself, and you will not need any rules to live by.

What arises is your truth. Your action will no longer be guided by the mind and its knowledge.

The divine will take over to create with the benevolent force of good.

∗ ∗ ∗

The very purpose of human birth is to find the self.

The fruits you will taste are secondary. The secrets that you will unravel are secondary. The miracles in your life are secondary.

Once you have found yourself, do not wavier from it.

Be courageous to look yourself in your eyes. Defend the truth with your life as nothing else is truth.

Once you know the truth, you will not be deceived.

Once you know the truth, you will not make up things, the divine will flow through you.

Once you know the truth you are empty and yet filled with the entire universe.

Once you know the truth, it doesn’t matter where you are going, as no matter where you go, it feels right.

Once you know the truth, you have known everything that is to be known by mankind.

The purpose of the mind will cease to exist.

The purpose of the body will cease to exist.

The purpose of life will be not to have any purpose.

Noting on your plate, nothing served on anybody else’s plate.

Just be. And your being will be a service to others.

Whatever you write, paint, or create will serve as a meditative device.

A device at first will assimilate with the people around you.

Invite them into the dance of the divine and change their rhythm completely.

A divine destruction of mind and ego. Loss of life and discovery of the self.

The end is the beginning of nothing tangible. But everything that cannot be explained and touched.

Like water flowing into the water, lose yourself in the flow.

Only the drop that dares to lose its identity becomes an ocean.

∗ ∗ ∗

Now you know what you don’t know. And you are happy about it.

A secret that has been shared so many times and yet remains a secret.

You will no longer need the device, rules and regulations, your being will be self-governed.

The self that is the same in you and I and the people you see around.

Your naive need to live in the miseries of the past will cease to exist.

Your childish dreams about the future will fade away.

Life is where you are. You are where you are supposed to be.

It’s okay not to know where you are, wherever you are you are home.

∗ ∗ ∗

All your life you lived a life running behind things that are moving.

Like a vagabond, life is nothing else but travel from one place to another.

One master to another. One religion to another. One place to another.

Let it be the journey within with self-awareness.

The world is moving around you and you are still in the unmoving center of your being.

Untouched. Unharmed. Unborn.

The body that you knew has mortified, the mind that you knew has mortified and the knowledge it all collected has become the fuel for your consciousness.

Only that is left of you is now, the present moment.

Look at the world as it is. Don’t run away from it, don’t run towards it.

Sit still and someone tried of the merry-go-round will knock on his door.

Open it and ask your help to pull him out.

Be there. In service.
