Our Human Drama : The Craziest Game that we All are Trapped in !!

Our Human Drama : The Craziest Game that We All are Trapped in !

Imagine that you  are from another planet , Universe or Spiritual level where you are a spiritual entity visiting Earth to experience human beings ,their cultures , religions , races or everything about the human civilisation . 
You watch them and like some advanced anthropologist , are attempting to understand the humans . Just as we are attempting to understand apes , whales or dolphins or even ants !
Humans are all the same across the planet in spite of  the differences in skin colour  and other minor differences . One can even call the differences like a sub species of the same major species . 
The basic brain capacity or capabilities are about the same all over the world . In other words , humans are born at about the same level as any other child in any place on the planet . The physical bodies are all about the same . Given the chance , any child has the potential to be anyone . 
So , the basic physical bodies are not a problem or an issue any where on the planet .
The human species is governed or controlled by a very intricate and complicated device called , The Mind .
This mind is where all the drama is being created and played out .
This playing field is really very complex and fascinating . 
The program's and games are such that each new born is programmed by a group of care takers who have all the methodology inbuilt in their systems . The reality that is created is based in ideologies , thoughts , belief systems , emotions  and high levels of electro chemicals . 
When you are within this reality , you are so much of this world that you cannot even conceive anything beyond what is your world .
Your cultures , religions , values , beliefs and thoughts are all well programmed to make that as your reality .
In the past , as the cultures and tribes were separated , they saw that as the highest truth or reality .
Now , as we are getting closer in a globalised program , our differences and similarities are getting exposed . 
We can see many simple contradictions that don 't make much sense . We can see many beliefs  across the planet that were simply crazy or down right stupid . They were simply going on or forced upon people who had their own agenda or some other benefits . Child marriages , strange rituals of growing , religious rituals at every turn of our life for some unknown agenda to a controlling group. 
Women in India were forced to jump into burning fires after the death of their husbands ! 
Women in Europe were burnt  as witches by the then church . 
The patterns of behaviour of all humans across the planet over all the times is a most amazing and fascinating phenomenon that simply defies intelligent understanding !
We are all aware that as humans were are conscious and aware that we are born and then we can die due to a million causes or reasons anytime after that . There is simple no form of any protection for any human ! One could be anywhere on this planet and in any level of the social standing . 
This life and death of our species is enough to make life uncertain and unpredictable . 
We almost all either deny or push this reality aside and cover it with all sorts of counter beliefs and have created a fabulous after word belief .
In the name of beliefs , ideologies and cultures , we have gone further to entrap ourselves over and further into this maze of total confusion and craziness . 
We create wars with a flip of a coin even to this day and give all sorts of legal or legitimate  stamp .
We have this rights and that rights of everyone until we have totally confused all issues .
We have a council of nations yet some have more power and rights then others !
The Geo Political issues are such a pile of confusion .
It all appears like a field day of conspiracy theories .
I will end my writing to this amazing human drama .
Take care. Love.

Our Importance is Self Created

Our Importance is Self Created !

Have you ever thought of this possibility that whatever we all think is importance is only at the level of our  own tribe , family , race or nation .
Does it matter to a hungry lion to be selective in choosing  some animal or human to consume  ?
Will a hungry lion leave the ruler of the nation or tribe and go for the common person ?
Of course , it sounds crazy to have such thoughts .
For a hungry lion , it just wants to eat !
Be it a poor deer , a wildebeest or some poor human at the wrong place at the wrong time .
Does it matter who ?
You may be a king of some nation on a tour or a poor cowherd from the local tribes .
To a lion it simply does not matter .
There goes our self importance .
Let's go smaller and see what happens .
To a mosquito , it is the same story.
A female mosquito just needs blood from any human . It is not selective who that person may be .
Let's go even smaller and see how important we are .
A bacteria or a virus too is not selective of the person it chooses.
Even at the level of humans , our importance is relative !
My mother is really very important to me . Do you feel the same sense of importance if you knew her as a woman living in your neighbourhood ? Most unlikely .
So , if we go by this kind of reasoning , we soon can come to the conclusion that all importance is self created.
Your religion is important to you . Your nation is important to you .
My this or that is important to me . That too goes on changing from time to time .
Nothing is really important permanently .
Time and place will and can change that always .
Some event or person is very important to a certain group of people and not important to others .
Eventually all importance is relative in time and place.
We sometimes over grandiose this self importance .
Ethno-centric is a word where we think and feel we are the centre of the Universe .



People , religions and nations all have this tendency towards self importance .
It is a human trait .
Nothing more and nothing less !
Will end for today. Take care.
Amar.

Some Reflections on Life and Living !

Some Reflections on Life and Living !

It had been raining for most part of the night . 
Every now and then the loud thunder kept announcing that it is going to unload the water from those dark clouds that were full of water !
The lightening , light , thunder and the rain all has it's own language !
I enjoy the pat , pat on the roof as the rain come down .
The sound of the rain , the cool room and my warm bed is just the right composition for a wonderful sleep !
Sometimes the rain is so heavy that I keep wondering how the clouds can store so much of water !
When I let curiosity and wonder walk me through things , I am always amazed by everything !
When we stop wondering or getting fascinated with everything around , then we have become robots and moving in life in auto mode !
The child in us is what gives joy and colour to life .
The adult in me is good as a functional part.
There is a parent or social principal that keeps reminding me what is right or appropriate in my living .


Life is wonderful when we can understand and realise that we are all of the above and much more !
We play many roles in our life time .
All are fun and can be funny too when you are aware of your true nature .
In life we are so focused in all sorts of identities , roles , forms , ideas , beliefs and concepts that they have totally become our reality . We simply cannot see beyond that .
Yet , we all can see that all the above are ever changing entities that are temporary and will not last too long .
If we are able to sit back and think , we become aware that there is something within us that is not changing !
This changeless aspect that is within us is always aware of all that is going on in our form .
It is witness to all yet prefers to remain in the background .
Life and living becomes fascinating and a real challenging adventure to explore who or what we really are !
It is so much easier to go outwards in the world . go fishing , climb mountains , swimming , rock climbing or driving fast cars , making all the money or even enjoying relationships .
They are constantly changing and will not last .
There is the inner Self that is waiting to be explored !
The inner world is a Universe in it Self .

Invest in Yourself .

What I mean by that statement is that I like to keep some time for myself .
Just sitting quietly . Going for walks .
Time to reflect . Read and think . Wonder and ponder .
Watch people . Like to see what they are doing .
Sitting still . Exercises , Rest .
Basically just to have time for myself .
If I don't take time for myself , what a strange thing that I am busy wanting to know people and other things and yet have so little information about my own thinking or feeling . I don't know myself but am busy wanting to know everything else !
I want to know why I think or feel like I do .
So , I really feel that I need to invest space and time for my inner self .
The more I do this , the more I feel and understand human nature better .
I have come to realise that most humans are trapped  in their minds .
They are victims of their own beliefs , concepts , ideas and thoughts !
Without being aware they are going to keep living their whole life in that drama !
Addicted to silly and destructive habits that is going to destroy them !
I see this daily in every form .
From Geo political to petty and trivial  issues that are destroying most humans .
Very sad and indeed soul crunching !
This will do for now .
Take care. Love.
Amar.
