Cycle

When the first atom was split successfully, in the Manhattan project(rivaled only by the NASA's moon mission in terms of investment of resources - money, manpower, intellect;) the lead scientist Dr. Robert Oppenheimer quoted a verse from the Gita, which the lord Shri Krishn says to Arjun after having revealed his true form. It goes - "I've become death, the destroyer of the world's."



The cycles of creation and destruction are pretty much the cause as well as consequence of all things humane, for example: emotions. Strangely, the preprogrammed mind automatically thinks of consequence as a form of suffering, as against the reason preceded by cause, because we look forward to the future so as to hedge against disapproval from what our current level of intellect perceives our society to be.

The similarities of intellect between what Arjun thought and even felt, are no different than what we feel today! We are still as foolish as we were ~5000 years ago. Man is still confounded by what lies within himself just as much as what lay beyond his imagination. If you find it hard to believe this, just try to imagine and come up with something completely new, intoto! You just can't.

All drama about ideation is just a flawed notion of copying what is already there in an aspect which seemingly has not been used before. All that is created must perish then all which has perished should be recycled, isn't it? If we were to value the total life on this planet earth and think of a root for all of them, call them souls, then I suspect the resultant over all sum is likely to be a constant forever. Maybe not a universal constant, but a constant in the world we are aware of.

If S=soul, E=earth, X=value\# imagined, T=defined quantum of time, K=constant
then x(s).e/t=k

Which is why, when the total sum of all parts breaks the equilibrium of the constant, everything has to be reset back to original and history repeats itself.

The collective sum of all conscious parts of life(species) is always constant in any given realm of a complete world with a full mutation life cycle.

Of all the questions which have troubled an individual on the path towards salvation and coming to terms with whatever life generally tends to offer, "who am I?" - is probably the biggest, most uncomfortable and at the same time, the primary question to be answered. It is only when a man is willing to  that he does not matter, his entire existence is in vain and the struggles, benefits, victories and the emotional turmoil is in vain and going to end up being nothing more than a memory which is bound to be forgotten sooner than later - that he truly begins to start understanding what  humble means.

~ Do we live in order to fulfill a purpose or is it the purpose itself which gives us life?

~ Are we thinking because we are able to and can afford to do so or is it the additional brain power which causes thought itself to arise?

~ Animals, either domestic or wild, are living creatures too. It is said they have a soul., but they don't seem to be bothered about such mundane issues.

~ As a species, there is no evidence to suggest they are self-aware or are bothered about extinction.

~ Humanity seems to have yet to come to terms with the idea of it's own ignorance and appears to get distracted pretty easily by the notion of self worth.

~ Why would there be any dispute or difference of opinion if one knew that it's all coming down to zilch in the end.

~ Is time real? Is God real? Have we created both of them or have they created us?

~ What is life itself? And why do we need to find a purpose to be fulfilled?

~ Critically speaking, if one removes the social obligations and expectations of people, literally meaning ALL kinds of expectations - moral, societal, parental, professional and personal, from ALL sorts of people - parent, guardians, spouse, colleagues, friends, relatives etc., then what is left for you to do?

~ what would the Devnagri word - dharm, mean if you were the last man standing on the earth?

A wise man, long time ago, had reasoned about possibilities of a probable God and the consequences of encountering him\her\it after death:

$ if there was no God to be answerable to and you did not believe in him during your lifetime, there's little to be bothered about or lost.

€ if there is a God and you've been appeasing him during your lifetime in some manner, by following any religion(path) and it's teachings, then you are doing alright.

¥ if there wasn't any God but you followed something out of blind faith, even then you wouldn't have to worry about any of your misgivings or transgressions.

£ now the real issue to be worried about is, if there ended up being a God whom you must be answerable to, after death, and you had neither cared nor acknowledged., only then you'd have reason to be concerned!

What it means in terms of quantifiable metrics is that you have a 25% chance to be worried reasonably. 1\4th rate of success is a good ratio to have in the real world!

Krishna: History or Myth?

Rule-breakers and game changers

The idea of a rebellion, against either tyranny or hypocrisy, has always been rooted in discontent of some form or aspect either within or without. The possibilities offered by a single success, mostly at the cost of great sacrifice, is nothing logical or reasonable. No pragmatic view would have any endorsement even remotely related to an uprising against the system simply because of the insurmountable odds stacked against it.

Yet, there has never been an age in recorded human history, which can claim itself to be devoid of a revolt. The philosophy of harm preventing man from foolish pursuits is not just misunderstood, but mistaken in it's entirety. For instance, in today's day and age, majority of people would be aware of potential dangers of an addiction like smoking cigarettes or consuming copious amounts of alcohol. Does it mean people would stop smoking and drinking? No. The principle definition of the theory which presumes knowledge would and should prevent mankind's primitive urges from being indulged in, is completely flawed and incorrect.

Far from being preventive, a regulation\rule only serves to further enhance the desire to do the very thing which is prohibited. To add insult to injury, this is nothing new! What is the primary instinct prodding you to do, before the conditioned brain overrides, when you see the sign - do not touch - written on an artifact in a museum? You go right ahead and feel it!

So, for parents and people managers alike, the question still remains, how do you deal with a rebel in the camp? You can only ignore them so much, because their relentless questioning, keen observation and righteous influence spreads like a contagion breaking down the hierarchy and chain of command; wrecking havoc on productivity and efficiency or on the domestic front - peace of mind.

One thing is for certain, a rebel without a cause can be like a double edged sword and as such should be dealt with care as well as caution. It will certainly be easier to stick to reason and keep the dialogue going, even if there is no apparent progress. Because a harsh and strict reaction in the form of a punishment, however well designed to discourage other's from following suit, is certain to backfire when it comes to rebels simply because of it's intrinsic characteristics. Instead of enforcing, it'll reinforce the cause they fight for and make it all the more difficult to convince them of your authority and then convert them into allies who support your cause.

Remember, fundamentally speaking, rebellion always has its roots on a moral high ground. The basis of rebellion itself is born out of a compulsion to follow what is presumed to be an unjust act of governance which has to be fought and resisted. This in turn sows the seeds of desire which feeds suspicion on a regular basis. Every action taken from that point onwards, starts getting scrutinized with a specific bias and ends up being judged with a prejudiced notion, irrespective of it being mundane or critical.

What's more, if anyone from the group of rebels is punished, even lawfully, and out of sheer misfortune ends up losing their life, they will have their name glorified and be labelled a martyr!

In the end, the bottom line is to be delicate in handling the people and situation without letting emotional turmoil affect and ruin just decision.
