Everything including
planet earth and the entire manifested Universe is dynamic. Nothing ever
remains the same and in a static position. Human beings are born, grow into
teens, mature into adults, retire from their hectic schedule to earn bread and
butter for their families, start graying into old age and finally shed their
mortal bodies with merely, achieving anything of significant value, living a
completely satisfied life and evolving
into fully fulfilled beings. Not even amassing a billion dollar fortune,
owning the most expensive yatch, living in a multi-million dollar accomodation,
gliding along the streets of Manhattan in a Ferrari and enjoying the company of
the most stunning woman the entire world has ever seen can keep a man
completely satisfied and fulfilled throughout his entire life. It is not the
material but the spiritual which is the
only abundant life of complete fulfillment and this can only come about when we
become successful in knowing our real nature, the soul or the non-material
nature.
“Sensory experience and social
conditioning cause us to forget who we are.”
-Dipak Chopra
(Book:Power
Freedom and Grace)
The human senses and material
conditioning deludes almost the entire world population into believing that
sex, the conjugal life and wealth are the means to the greatest source of
fulfillment on the planet which causes to forget who we are whereas the source
to the storehouse of everlasting happiness and complete fulfillment lies into
the field of exact opposite nature of materialism and the matrialistic world.
“Ignorance of our real
nature causes the Inner Self to be obscured.”
-Dipak Chopra
(Book:Power
Freedom and Grace)
The only tool or instrument
for our obscured Inner Self to be revealed and reinvigorate it so as to live a
life of permanent happiness and complete fulfillment without having to partake
in a marshy quagmire of atheistic vices like sex and black money is meditation.
Meditation helps us tap our vast spiritual reserve, energise the soul and
establish us as fully awakened beings. As stated earlier, everything in the
Universe undergoes constant change. All the major Art of Living courses in the
world employ meditation as a technique to get ourselves acquainted with our
real nature, the non-material nature. In fact, these courses teach us how to
adapt to the ever growing changes around us to live in great harmony with
ourselves, the community, the society
and the entire world. Let us look into some details about the various
masterkeys a fully awake soul instruments to make a spiritual aspirants Art of Living a living reality.
The dawn of the fifth
spiritual plane welcomes the restoration of a fully restored awareness which
converts us into the most egoless individual because then we become aware that
we are not the doer, that we are not the roles we play but only Divine
instruments of the most Supreme Godhead in His Infinite and
Eternal dance of creation. When we become aware that every thought, word or
deed of ours is the Infinite Will of God and that God is Willing everything to
be executed from the most minute sub-atomic details to the greater details, we
learn to submit wholeheartedly to the Infinite Will of God and our fully awake
soul instruments our awareness to be in a state of total and complete
acceptance. Everything right up from the positive harmony down to the negative
disharmony on the planet is imbibed in a neutral and balanced state of complete
acceptance.
By the state of
Self-Realisation we shall have realised
enough spiritual laws to be able to carry ourselves with great harmony with our
own Self, the community, the society and the entire world. These laws give us
genuine kowledge about the law of cause and effect, the Omnipresent Spirit of
God, our real essence and the Supreme role of the most Supreme Godhead in our
lives. The workings of the law of karma, the aspect of presence of God in every
living particle, our true designation as a Son of God and the place of God’s
Supreme Command in everything that exists are realisations that help us live a
righteous life in a crooked world filled with strife, sorrow, suffering,
violence, hatred, vengence, enemity, self-centred individuals, jealousy,
competition, terrorism, wars etc. The laws of life that we realise along our
spiritual growth process are meant for us to live righteously and applying the
laws in our life as true messengers of God and setting a living example is right living.
The quality of being a
staunch adherent of beauty that stands
for great purity, the most purest, true, selfless and unconditional Anahatic
love and the virtuous quality of goodness and goodwill expressed to all living
creatures equally and alike gets grounded in our Self by being spiritually
elevated beings. The authentic nature of goodness, virtuousness and
righteousness are some of the keys employed by someone who knows the Art of
Living and therefore such an aspirant is someone who has a presence of light and
love radiating around him. The obscene and profane are not his usual words of
vocabulary in his dictionary. You can all look back at the life of Christ and
figure out what it is to be a true living Son of God.
Self-Realisation is a state
of no-desires. One of the most genuine Spiritual Masters the world has ever
come across, J.Krishnamurti, has clearly outlined the need to not to have a
single problem on our lives. According to him, the only mandatory requirement
to not to have a single problem in our lives is to live a life without a single
desire because as long as there are desires in our life there shall always be
problems. He says that the important thing in life is to live our lives without
a single problem and this can come about by not getting identified with
thoughts that keep on fuelling desires because it is the thought processes that
gives rise to desires. I, by chance, realized something even more interesting
by his most profound theory on living a life without a single problem and
therefore without any desires. I realized that getting Enlightened is not the
important thing but rather it is living a life without a single problem and therefore without a single desire, the most
important accomplishment of a spiritual life . Living a life without a single
problem and therefore without a single desire is another masterkey to the state
of permanent happiness and to the great Art of Living as well.
The key to the Art of
Living of the sixth state of consciousness would be loving the gentle aspect of
all the inanimate things on the planet because even the inanimate are on par with the animate because both the living
and non-living things are composed of the very same particles which is pure
energy, pure consciousness or God.
The seventh state of
consciousness gets the Ultimate spiritual wisdom driven into your soul that
everybody is a reflection of your own Spirit and therefore every single soul on
planet earth is none other than a concentration of the Universal Spirit which
is the last in the line of the wisdom of the bodily chakras or spiritual
centres of your body and the concluding realisations of making living an art.
Getting grounded
in the most Supreme Truth and thereby being the torchbearers of the Ultimate
Reality, we all should realise and have a genuine cause to lead a life of
service to God. Being selflessly dutybound to play the role of true messengers
of God and spreading His Divine message to the inhabitants of planet earth
should be the real objective of all devotees of God endowed with an Infinite
source of wisdom by the Grace and Compassion of the most Supreme Godhead.
