Man is alone, and that is his identity. A man is the centre of universe, and that is reality. A man, when he thinks, walks, or eats, he is alone though he might have company or might be having a conversation. Man has this world inside is head as much as it is on outside.
The world outside exists as a reflection inside a man’s mind, and a man has no prove to the existence of world or anything else, except when is trying to contradict it. Man knows by negation, and not by affirmation. Man’s reasons are good to rule out things to arrive at judgments, and his imagination is the tool used to propagate from judgments.
Imagination is very powerful indeed, and it is one talent which is an absolute must for creation of any kind. Many would argue that it is the most important attribute required to create, but introspection would reveal that a man must be rational first, to be able to create anything that would exist in this world. We might say that imagination gives us directions, but, it is in fact reason that leads us to having such sort of imagination.
Reason is dogmatic. Yes. Its existence requires it to be so. If there is nothing better than this place, then, I am staying here. most often mystiques have argued that the rational lack imagination, that is, they fail to notice anything new, because they have limited imagination.
It is totally baseless assertion, and it will be found through out religious scriptures when they are trying to tackle the atheistic belief.
The necessity of a God in society and the origin of him, has been expressed in many books and articles. We would just try to discuss the relation of Monotheistic God and an individual.
There are some attributes of animals which still exist with human, and one of the most potent one of them is man’s fascination with groups. Men like to form groups, like to discuss groups interests, like to serve the group, and sometimes, would give up his life for the glory of the group. Now, this has human part in it to. Man would give up his life or belongings for a group he totally identifies with, such as religion or language without much requirement of an uprising. National groupism is a refined form of this, but a man can not naturally identify with such a big and diverse group without presence of a provoking factor. This can be seen in cases of war and natural disaster.
But, as the man becomes more and more refined, he goes on understanding that he is different, different from all the rest. That everything else exists to him just because he exists. And he feels alone.
One attribute of man is that he is happy to serve. He is happy to belong, he is happy to be a part of something. Awakening leads to discovery of the fact that he, in this world is alone. And nobody likes it when it suddenly strikes them. This is what Mayavadis told everyone. That the world outside is a hoax. But that is only a part of it. No matter how much awakened one is, he can not negate the presence of himself, and that of the world. But he can say that he is free from all the rest.
How free is a man? The world is a process of rewarding and punishing. A man is accountable for his actions. So will he be free if there is no action from his side? No again, for the world has some pre-requisites for life, and everyone must fulfil them. Hence, men’s heaven dreams are always an inconsequential world and an eternal life. Man has tried, tried to negate the very requirement, the basic truth of his living.
Man serves God. Man found God in his hour of loneliness’, when he found that all of his actions were directed to nobody’s gain, he tried to find an identity by asserting, he is doing God’s work. Finding flaws in everything, he tried to find a flawless love in God. Finding his ego not letting him submit to any earthly flawed thing, he submitted to God. Submission is an essential human trait.
Man loves. Most of his loves stem from him being with things or people for a long time. The love of man is most often a consequence, rather than a decision, or submission. But, man does submit. Man submits to his fellow man when he finds those godly traits in another. When the word love stems without the proverb “despite of”. When man can search and find nothing he can criticise, he says, I am fulfilled.
But it is true that human have faults discovered sometimes or the other. And then, the temporal factor becomes the deciding one. Does a man move on fro his beloved? Should he move on from his beloved? These questions storm his mind, and he becomes lost. Most often, he makes a compromise.
But how it should be? Should a man not proceed from a place the ends of which he has found, and found them to be inferior to what he seeks for himself? Can a man not proceed to a higher goal? You would often hear this question, “Would you leave me if you found somebody better?” What do you say when asked so?
Sometimes, we find some people who would choose to walk with us, and we would agree despite knowing that he deserves better than me, or despite finding out he would soon overshadow me. Many people have jealously tried to guard such man and stagnate them to themselves, but, that bird which has found freedom, and knows the fruitless existence of a cage would be hard to tame. The cage must go. A better self must emerge. It is through journeys such, that we find movement points; we have our own search of God.
One thing to remember is God loves you. God cares for you. God that you may find and you may please will always be satisfied by what you offer and not whatever you offer.
coming back to submissive nature of human, his desires to find somebody to whom he can submit would never go away. Otherwise, he would be tormented to decay. The pleasure that submission is overshadows the pleasure of owning, pleasure of saying I am yours is much more than you are mine. To say I am yours, a man requires to own himself. To own something, he does not.
Again, love follows reason. Love would check out all the despite off features. You might ask, why there is so much of falling of there then? And the answer would be, the word eternal stinks, and your traits change and so does your demands. You would say, to find a God do we wait a lifetime?
Let me answer it. Most people exist to do things in life. They never understand what life is or what its capacities are. They die as good as any man. A few though exist, to do things with life. And finding a God and being good enough may be one of it.
Submission is bliss.
