How many of you are aware of the world famous poem of Rabindranth Tagore - "Where the mind is without fear" - One of the MOST BEAUTIFUL collections of Gitanjali ?
It is the 35th poem of Gitanjali.
Gitanjali Song 35 :
If you have seen the movie Madras Cafe ?
The movie is about Civil War between India and Sri Lanka and the assassination of the former Prime Minister of India - Rajiv Gandhi.
In the movie in the climax ; The Priest (Church father) asks a Question to Vikram (Soldier) -
THE QUESTION WAS - "WHO WON THE BATTLE ?
SO AGREE - The best gift that any Father can ever give to his daughter !
Vikram answers - "HE DOES'NT KNOW ? BUT IN THIS BATTLE INDIA LOST THEIR PRIME MINISTER AND SRI LANKA LOST THEIR FUTURE".
Vikram then later walks away reciting Rabindranath Tagore's 35th Poem of Gitanjali which he received as a wedding gift from his father in law - WHERE THE MIND IS WITHOUT FEAR !
The higher your consciousness ; the more closer you are to TRUTH.
The lower your consciousness ; the more distant/away you are from TRUTH.
Each one of us have our own TRUTH which is RELATIVE to our level of CONSCIOUSNESS.
Collective Consciousness of the Society = Average consciousness of all individuals of the society.
How much ever high your INDIVIDUAL CONSCIOUSNESS is ; Ultimately what we experience in life is the COLLECTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS.
Madras Cafe is the BEST EXAMPLE :
THE QUESTION REMAINS THE SAME - WHO WON THE BATTLE ?
We all Lose many battles in LIFE (BIG/SMALL) and the people who win are the ones who are POSSESSED BY SHADOW SELF (LOW CONSCIOUSNESS).
Nobody wants to REALISE AND RECOGNIZE SHADOW because IT CHALLENGES THE EGO !
PEOPLE AVOID FACING THEIR SOUL !
SO AGREE - The people are not TOXIC they are only BIOLOGICAL BY NATURE.
THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO AVOID FACING THEIR SOUL !
THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO AVOID FACING THEIR SOUL !
WABI : NATURE = PERFECTION = MASCULINE ENERGY
SABI : FORCES OF NATURE = IMPERFECTION = FEMININE ENERGY
Each one of us have BOTH THE FORCES/ENERGIES within us REGARDLESS OF OUR GENDER.
If you achieve INNER BALANCE then OUTSIDE BALANCE will happen by your CHOICE !
If you do not achieve INNER BALANCE ; YOU GO AGAINST THE FORCE OF NATURE CALLED IMPERFECTION and the OUTSIDE BALANCE will be a COMPULSION !
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN OUTSIDE BALANCE HAPPENS BY COMPULSION ?
We can only EDUCATE people about this ; but we cant force people to FACE THEIR SOUL !
WHAT IS COMPULSION ?
COMPULSION = Fit into the NORMAL CURVE.
Society has created a Definition for Civilization and this Civilization is taking Man away from HUMAN NATURE.You can take a MAN out of STONE AGE ; but you cannot take the STONE AGE out of a MAN.
Civilization = Dont break the RULES even if it means SUPPRESSING GENUINE HUMAN EMOTIONS. Our challenges may be different from the STONE AGE ; but our HARDWIRING is not.
INCOMPETENCE BREEDS CERTAINTY.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN OUTSIDE BALANCE HAPPENS BY CHOICE !
SEA = NATURE = PERFECTION.
WAVES = FORCE OF NATURE = IMPERFECTION.
COMPULSION can only FULFILL MATERIALISTIC DESIRES ; It is only CHOICE that can FULFILL SOUL !
