Satashya Sathyam

It is ENTIRELY possible to skip all the learning...for whence there are NO schools...there needs be NO graduations!

Oh the simplicity of it, lays itself bare! I am only now coming to my senses fully!

It only matters what we choose to do...whence we came from, we shall return - it only matters what journeys we wish to take! Some are hard and some are kind. Some teach and others amuse. Some we choose, others we reject.

We can skip it all ENTIRELY - if we decide that NOTHING MATTERS except the Supreme Conciousness, the Is, the Parabrahman. Then all that remains is to follow the path(s) that require single-mindedness from us, in this purpose - in this purpose to KNOW the Truth and it alone.

So many ways to reach it/the Parabrahman! Oh they are so replete! So beautiful! So unique in their own way!

I feel lightened!!! I feel as if I am made of some inner light that only now shines through me. On me. I CAN SEE! I CAN SEE HOW THEY ARE ALL THE SAME! I CAN SEE WHY IT DOESN'T MATTER!

You can do complicated calculus to figure out the sum of 2 n 2. Or you can just add them.
Depends on what satisfies your mind! Likewise with an inner conciousness...we are deterministic. We are in deterministic worlds, like this one! We make graduated desicions...marking time, place and event. All they are for are to teach us what we already KNOW...but won't accept until we are ready. Some people will take the leap of faith and others...well others need to know for themselves!

I gave myself a choice! It is funny, because after this, after today...I don't need to make a choice...soon both my paths will converge...oh glory!

***

It is funny, I grew up knowing this. It was said to me many many ways. In many many forms. In single and in plural, the purpose implied...illuminated. All was illuminated. And I found something transcendent in those words only NOW!

What seems obvious to me ONLY NOW, is so truly beautous...it is the fact that every equation to the Brahman...has a back-up equation! Every path...has another one written sublimely under it that takes us to the Ultimate reality, eventually! They evolve and co-evolve!

So whether we choose to follow paths that show us our purpose and our next lessons and eventually show us how little they may matter...or whether they show us by their simple agelessness the Underlying Truth all at once...is left to us, the meandering of the thoughts...they can reach their goal immediately or they can reach it infinitely slowly...time, it seems - is on our side. We are positively made of time.

I know one thing, at this moment in time...I want to know what other ways there are also! I want to see all the Creation all at once! I want to see its intricacies that are self-weaving and its simplicity that is self-evident! I want to experience it all for itself!

Oh, but the power of persuasive love! I had but to accept the fact that me and my love may not be of the same mind and slowly my mind expanded to explain it all!!!

***

Thus I am to ponder the words forthwith, with their VAST truth inlaid:

'I am infinite, I am immeasurable, I am unique, I am incomparable. Equal to myself, I am my own measure, witness and authority.'

'I am the Satashya Sathyam, the Truth of truths. Why has truth come on earth in human form? To plant in the heart of man the yearning for Truth, to place man on the road to Truth, to help man to reach Truth by loving instruction and by the final gift of illumination.’

'You cannot understand my reality either today or even after thousands of years of austerity or inquiry, even if all mankind join in that effort. But, very soon, you will be aware of the bliss showered by the divine principle, which has taken upon itself this body and this name.'

To me it becomes--you cannot understand my reality if that's what you choose to understand...you can understand your OWN reality however and realize that my reality is no different!

"Whenever ashanthi or disharmony overwhelms the world, the Lord will incarnate in human form to establish the modes of earning prashanthi (peace) and to re-educate the human community in the paths of peace."

This becomes to me -- the modes for peace and education will make themselves apparent as ways not only to learn what disharmony and violence are, if only to hold them to the light of what they were in contrast to, but they will also become our graduations - if that is what we seek.
