Thirst for ideal or the reset

The Christ said that to be born again of the Kingdom it was necessary to die of the old person and he did not speak about the death !  Here is is the same image but in today’s fashion: when your Windows is in bulk, reset your PC. It is the deep Meditation.

Summary:


The mind and the nervous system’s fonctioning , for the human being in a environment which is not planned for him, the stressing big cities, the work productivity, a generating family life of suffering because of the life rhythm generates psychic residues which prevent him to operate normally.

That causes confusion and suffering. It would be necessary to make as with a computer: to reset. It is possible thanks to the Agya of the original-yoga. The Agya is a set of three practices which cover the existence from waking up to bed time, living a normal life, and allow to be reset, to recalibrate yourself.

Rebooting

All those who use a computer know the reboot

which names the reset.

When you make a reboot

it is because the computer fails

because of background applications running in spite of you.

The same thing inside

It happens that your mind, your intellect accumulates

all kinds of informations, conscious or unconscious,

coming from stimuli, good, less good or bad events,

from thoughts, speculations, dreamed etc

This information leave traces

which impact your daily life. 

 

Sometimes that appears in the form of culpability, doubts, regrets, attachments or inextinguishable desires. There is also the hidden memory where are the worries, the unhappiness, the anger and the fear. As many inexhaustible sources of bugs which let crash your operating system, the mind.

You are like these computers which heated too much

There are inside you so much slags, remains of the mind and the senses activity that you are blocked, unable to make the difference between the truth, the fake, between the objective and the subjective. From a tool, the mind becomes a Master. Your phantasms become reality and you base your acts on an illusion. If you are in this case, you are the ideal candidate for a reboot. 

 

It is what the path allows you

It offers you a way to reset in your original state, at the present moment. In this moment the mind’s interferences disappear. The fragmentation makes way to the unit.

''One and His Name are the source of the world

The Knowledge leads to the unit ''

[Bhaktimàrga 2-1-1]

 

The existence is a travel back to your country of origin and it is not because the travel can seem long that you should not benefit from the landscape… and then the existence is beautiful, even if it is not perfect nor free from sufferings. The rain after the sun, the sun after the rain, it is thus and it should be accepted as you cannot do anything.

Reasons to suffer

There are always reasons to suffer, that they are related to your own life or to the one of so many other people, throughout the world, who are the victims of injustices and cruelties. The reunion between your Conscience and the inner Peace do not prevent the empathy. 

 

To live well it is necessary to live as what was planned for you. A sea fish will live better in salt water than in a lake. An orang-outang will live better in the deepest primary forest, at the tree tops, than in a cage. It is as follow: to each species its biotope.

 

The human being was not designed to live where he lives today,

in any case in the developed societies.

This inadequacy of the environment to the human being

is not caused by the modernity.

It is the capitalist motivation which makes violence with its nature. 

 

One evening, on the television

A report showed, on the television, the farmer’s life in Ladakh cultivating the barley. When it was very windy they threw the cereals in the air, after having beaten them, to separate the the kernels from the heads.

During this work they sang the glory of the wind come from the close mountains and laughed much. Then this report showed these people, later, who did the same job but with a tractor and a coupled machine with it. This machine automatically sorted the grai and the straw. Only one person in the back was enough, to charge it and an other one on the tractor to cut down a work which required ten times more time and people.

A woman farmer said that the productivity had increased considerably and that they earned more money and had more time. Then she says: 
 

“We earn more money but for buying what ?
We save time but for doing what with ?
We do not sing any more, because of the noise of the engine
and we do not work any more together, we do not laugh any more… “

“We earn more money but for buying what ?
Now we have more money
but I feel a mental stress which I did not know before.
We had less money, less comfort and less goods
but we were happy.
Now this tension makes me suffer and my desires increase… “

''Go beyond your physical nature that attaches you to the illusion
Free yourself of the duality and of your desires
Stay in the Grace of the Agya''

[Bhaktimàrga 2-2-16]

The environment of competition 

 

It is this environment where the human lives and who is not adapted to his nature: the need for effectiveness, productivity, race to the performance and the increase in the profits. Since childhood, in the elementary schools, until the retirement our societies let you believe that the goal of the man is to be productive, powerful.

Is the purpose of the Human really to be useful for the establishment of financial wealths producing always more and for low-costs? No, certainly not and the proof is this state of mental stress that lets him suffer so much and pushes some to the nervous breakdown and others to the suicide.

The modernity has nothing to do with that : you can be modern and not crazy ! Now the world lives under the reign of the golden calf which leads you to the slaughter-house. “Sentimental crowd, thirst for ideal…” like said a french well known song. The politicians, who understand nothing, promise more competitiveness to you whereas you dream of ideal. The politics who will speak about ideal, about solidarity will gain your voices ! 

 

This ideal is inside you and it is by resetting your operating system that you will find it. It is what the path offers you: the means, through the Agya, and the four revealed techniques, to be disconnected and find this initial state, this normal state of the human being.

The confusion

En français

"The good leads to One and opens its Kingdom, 

The evil brings back towards the desires of the world 

And the suffering of confusion" 

[Bhaktimàrga 1-4-5]

"Anger brings to the illusion; illusion to the aberration, 
Consciousness then turns off
And the human being is lost in the ways of the world "

[Bhaktimàrga 1-5-21]

"As the pure crystal takes the color of objects placed near him

The meditator free of the mind's fluctuations leaves the confusion

And reached the perfect Consciousness of the bliss

Absorbed in One"

[Thread of freedom  verse 1.41]

In the texts of the path, in the Satsang it is often question of the confusion. Obviously this word possesses several meanings depending on whether you are a jurist, a grammarian, a psychologist, a politician or a psychiatrist. If you give to this word the semantic load of the jurist, by speaking about the mood of an individual, you will understand nothing in its problem.

As regards to the original-yoga it is the same thing: we use the word confusion, vague to express something concerning the spirituality. If you read dictionaries, they will tell you, about the confusion:

-"Action to confuse, to take something or somebody, for something, somebody else, error, despised."

-"State of what is confused, unclear, disordered, disorder."

-"Situation of a group where everybody stirs in a muddled way."

-"Embarrassment, confusion caused by the feeling of a fault; embarrassment, shame."

-"Defect of order, method, clarity in the things of the spirit."

In medicine the confusion indicates a disorder of the attention and the perception of the outer facts. On the path we use this word to say the state of conscience where is a person completely under the influence of the false-ego.

Obviously, if you do not know exactly what is the "false-ego" the explanation doesn’t enlighten you. There are texts, on the blog which speak about the false-ego, but I am not sure that you will go to read them before returning to this text, also I am going to restore you an explanation, short, of what we understand by "false-ego".

The false-ego is that, usually, most of people indicate by the word ego. For us the ego is not a problem, quite the opposite: it was given us so that our soul is aware of itself: without the ego the soul could not be considered as individuality, could not say «I». Moreover, the ego is what gives it the free-will and the free-will is one of the fundamental characteristics of the humanity. The free-will is the first condition of the prodigal son’s returning back at his father's house. The ego, according to our doctrine, is attached to the soul during all the time of the incarnation, forming what we name "incarnated-soul" or "Witness". 

 

To simplify extremely we could say that the false-ego is the vanity, in every sense of the word. Every medal has its lapel and the false-ego is the lapel of the ego and the free-will, as the darkness are the other face of the Light. It is this bipolarity which generates the life. The Hindus decompose the supreme God, One or Brahman in three poles, the Trimùrti, the creator, the protector and the destroyer, that is Brahma, Vishnou and Shiva.

Thus, for us, the confusion 

is the state of consciousness where is the one 

who has put its attention completely on the that, 

the visible, the two-tier, and which mind is managed by the false-ego. 

In the Yogasutra of Patanjali this confusion 

is the fluctuations of the mind or Vrittis. 

 

In a confuse person the reality is seen through the warping veils of the sensibility, concepts , preconceived ideas, doubts and fears. You saw, higher, what dictionaries said, about the confusion:

" Action to confuse, to take something or somebody, for something, somebody else; error ". It is indeed the case. When we take our thoughts for an inspiration coming from God, or the ego for the false-ego there is a mistake, we confuse, we mix-up things. 
 

You also saw this definition:

" State of what is confused, unclear, disordered; disorder ". I assure you that the one who begins to tidy up the head, by the practice of the Meditation and, for those who had the Revelation of the four techniques and who observe the Agya, this one, thus, begins to realize that there is a big disorder in the head. Well, realizing that is already to begin to remedy it, especially with the Agya we have the tool, the method to reach it, to tidy up the mental sound. Even if it is not the purpose of the Observance, that helps !

The definitions also say that the confusion is...

" Situation of a group where everybody stirs in a muddled way. " Is not it a faithful description of the humanity there? When 15 % of the humanity are divided 80 % of the wealth, is not it a proof of certain disorder there? Without counting the wars, obviously!

 

 As for ...

"Embarrassment, disorder caused by the feeling of a clumsiness, a fault; embarrassment, shame". The clumsiness and the fault are obvious, known and that a lot of people feels in a certain embarrassment, disorder is not surprising: there is something, in each human being, that knows very well that it is bad what they are doing to themselves and to the world: the soul. Even dominated by a mind under control of the false-ego, the soul remembers the perfection where it comes from and the comparison with the confusion doesn’t let to hamper it, to cause in it a certain disorder.

And to finish, about...

" Defect of order, method, clarity in the things which hold the operations of the spirit. " We only have to listen to the explanations of a lot of people, about this or that to notice this defect of order, method and clarity.

" What conceives well expresses itself clearly and the words to say it arrive easily " [the Art of poetry (on 1674) Nicolas Boileau-Despréaux] we have to admit that things are not conceived well by the humanity. The global warming and the deforestation, the daily loss of biodiversities, the injustice reigning over the world, the cruelty to the weakest and the cynicism of the financiers of all stripes prove us, if proof were needed, that things are not conceived well, in the human mind and that the words, to say it, don’t come easily !

It is to say the confusion in which the world is. When I write the world I imply the world of the human beings, that is the human beings themselves… but what is going wrong in him ? That he isn’t in the consciousness of the harmony which presides over the Creation.

One is harmony and his harmony reigns over His Creation, parts of Him. The human being is the only living being who has the free-will. This free-will was given to him By One [" and God created the man and the woman in his image " (Genesis 1:27)] so that he returns to Him in full awareness.

If the free-will gives to the human being the power to tell yes to the divine harmony, the deep Consciousness, it also gives him that to say no to it and to take the easy way of the immediate appearances and pleasures without responsibilities. It is necessary to admit that often he chooses to say no to it.

There is something, 

in the human being, 

who prefers the disharmony 

and this thing 

is the false-ego. 

The false-ego is the devil, - that which separates, we have to admit that the devil has the hand put on the world of the men. But if the devil is infinitely more powerful than the human consciousnesses, it is less strong that God, little, less strong one degree but this degree makes the difference between very powerful and infinitely powerful.

The Manicheanism of Mani, at about three hundred years AD, described well this fight of the good and the evil. It should be noted that this doctrine was born in the mystic heart of the world.

If you want to be of the good side of the Strength [master Ioda dixit] you have to take sides. It took a lot of incarnations before the human being decides to take sides ! When you will have decided, it will be necessary to make what is good to be on the side of the Light. We propose you a method: the Agya and the Revelation . It is necessary to ask for it, that won’t happen en its own.
