The Unified Field

                                                              
        “The essential point is that our real nature is a non-material field of intelligence.”
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         -Dipak Chopra
                   



                         Most of us are still displaced into the field of the dormant human soul and are within the field  of  “The Known”. The field of “The Known” can be thought of as an area which the normal human intellect can grasp or comprehend because we have till date been acquainted with only knowing that which the mortal brain can facilitate and make us aware about.  In other words, ”The Known” is the field only which the human brain, the mind or the human intellect can grasp or comprehend. Since most of us  only get acquainted to that which the human intellect can grasp or comprehend, the ever wandering boundaries of the mortal brain can be confined to the term-“The Known”.  “ And what is it that one of the greatest seers of our time, Mr.Dipak Chopra, mean by stating that our real nature is a non-material field of intelligence?”  We, as human beings, can make a choice to transcend from the field of  “The Known” to the realm of  “The Unknown”, or from a state of dormant human soul to a fully awake one. When we make that special journey from the affairs of a stagnating human mind to a fully awake soul, it is then that we realize the essence of being born as human beings and that the most important human endeavour in mortal life is not to stay static into the affairs of everyday material life but to take that quantum  leap into the field of the Infinite possibilities, the non-material state, the unknown or in more simpler terms- the fully awake soul. All this can come about when we become successful in taking that quantum leap into the Anahat chakra or the fourth spiritual centre. When we become successful in establishing ourselves as permanent residents of the Anahat chakra, it is then that we know that we are into the field of Infinite possibilities, the non-material state, the unknown or a fully awake soul. Since the essential fact is that the ultimate task of our lives is to get in touch with the non-material field and have our soul awareness awakenend it can be honestly concluded that our real nature is the non-material field of intelligence. Therefore, this field of Infinite possibilities, the unknown, the fully awake soul or the non-material nature is called –“The Unified Field.”



                       “ How can the living reality of establishing ourselves as permanent residents of the unified field come about?” I shall reveal to you two biggest secrets  in succeeding on the spiritual path. There are only two mandatory requirements to make the spiritual journey a successful one. The first is, to be engaged in your daily karma. The daily karmic routine is whatever you may be doing as a profession. You may be a banker, a hairdresser, a writer, a teacher or an entrepreneur. If you are a housewife, maid or a housekeeper, be engaged in your own line of work. Do anything, but be sure to lead an active life. Whatever you do, do it with full of enthusiasm and love and turn every successive day into one of great addiction to your line of work. It is because the more passionately active you are the more sharpened your awareness will become. Since your awareness will start getting infused into your activity on a daily basis from the very first day of your meditation, the kind of your soul awareness will depend a lot on the kind of an active life you have led. This means that if you have led an active spiritual life, you shall be fully aware even at that moment if someone stabs you with a steely knife.




“When you work you are a flute through whose heart the whispering of the hours turns to music……And what is it to work with love? It is to weave the cloth with threads drawn from your heart, even as if your beloved were to wear that cloth……..”
                                                                                                       -Kahlil Gibran , The Prophet



                          The second requirement is when you sit down to meditate, forget the entire world, and meditate with an intense passion. One of the greatest secrets in making spiritual growth quicker and more effective is to meditate very seriously whenever you sit down for your meditative sessions. Never take even one meditative session for granted because every encounter with the divine or the field of silence and every succeeding spiritual effort counts. Every meditative session is equally important. These were the only two requirements I followed to turn my spiritual endeavour into a roaring success.



                          Let us look into some details that develops with the restoration of a fully awake unified field. We, as human beings, work to fulfill our daily need for bread and butter. Some of us might want even more wealth beyond the sustenance level, so we slug ourselves even more harder. Some make it to the multi-million dollar or even beyond the billion dollar mark while most of us relapse into great states of frustration by the lack of circulation of gold or currency into our lives. While some become extremely wealthy most of the people stagnate and have to be satisfied with minimum financial resources because the material world is an inefficient and unfulfilling medium to cater to all the needs of the people. Making the targeted dough and living a life of great luxury is not true affluence. A life of real abundance and true affluence is getting in touch with the unified field and living in the state  of Infinite Grace. When you live in the field of Infinite Grace you have the ability to manifest your desires for anything you want. The field of Infinite Grace, or the unknown source of the unknown field is the kingdom of heaven from which any desires created and released into your awareness shall materialize. But you shall be so desireless that you shall manifest your desires  only  for your basic necessities like food, clothing and shelter. The desireless state is the source of the greatest source of happiness inspite of having no desires for great comfort and luxury because our state of permanent happiness makes us extremely satisfied even when we don’t have a single desire. This is because the greatest hunger in the entire manifested Cosmos a human being can have is to feel being fulfilled, and this state of fulfillment has its source in the state of everlasting happiness, which is our real nature.  Since happiness is the ultimate goal of all human beings and since the happiness-state is our essential and true nature, we forever remain abundantly and affluently happy even when we are in a state of no-desires.



                     All of us cling to human bondage but in reality there are no relations such as a wife, husband, father, mother, son, daughter etc. Every relationship that we nurture in human existence is Maya or illusion. As Mr.Dipak Chopra states, “We are nothing but only raw materials of the Universe.” So one of the next developments of the unified field is detachment or freedom from attachment. The reinvigoration of the unified field unburdens us from the attachment of relationships like a wife, husband, father, mother, son , daughter and so on.



                  The Self-Realised state is the third last state of the spiritual evolutionary process in which we surrender wholeheartedly to the Infinite Will of God. Once we realize that it is the Infinite leela or play that creates, sustains and recycles the Universe and all  of us human beings, it naturally means that there can be no more complaining, no commenting and no reacting to the Infinite and Eternal play of the entire manifested Universe. This further means submitting ourselves without any resistance to the Infinite Will and being receptive to every greater details in our life right down to the minute sub-atomic details that can even create cancerous cells in our body. “And what does it mean if you contract cancer?” It means no complaining, no commenting and no reacting, Fullstop!!!




“ There can be no more important task in our lives than to get in touch with our deepest Self.”
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 -Dipak Chopra
          



                           And this Self that he talks about is none other than “The Unified Field.” We all have a great task at hand to realize that we are only stagnating ourselves along the way by getting quagmired  in suffering of human life and that this suffering can only  can only be eradicated by tapping ourselves into the abundant and affluent realm of “The Unified Field.”  "You don’t belong to a life of suffering but you truly belong to the field of the greatest source of happiness on the entire manifested Universe which solely is the one and only- The Unified Field."
