Mind and Heart

After a long time got some time to scribble...Lol.
Mind is shhit. Full shhit. Heart is holy. Our education system is mind based. No wonder this perverted the society. Mind can't appreciate anything. Mind doesn't know beauty. Mind can't appreciate flower, the singing birds, the vast non-ending horizons, the beauty of sky. I found sky as the most beautiful creation. Since my early childhood sky attracted me. Sky is the purest element. There is no scope of contamination in sky. Sky existed even before big-bang if any at all it ever happened. The problem with mind is that it has no idea of what is beauty. Only thing the mind knows is logic. And at times, mind can be deceptive. Extremely deceptive. That is, it can act like heart. Mind can assert statement which appears to be coming from the heart. This is the most dangerous part of mind. Mind fools mind. There is not scope of stability in mind. Any relationship which is based on mind won't run longer. It won't be durable. For example the relationship between son and mother is not mind based. It's heart based. That's why it runs without any problems.
There were times when I used to be hardcore logical analyzing things. And I found that logic do work but after certain levels of logic it makes no sense. Because, it starts approaching to the root level of existence. So, it simply starts disappearing. I always work on the root level. From where everything is arising. Working on the derived problems will fetch temporal solutions. The reason behind this is - we had been always taught to work on the derived problems only. The derived problems are the class of those problems whose origin is somewhere else and mostly hidden from us. And at slightly unfortunate note, in most of the cases we don't care to know the root of the problem. Because, we were taught like that. Because, the teacher who taught us they themselves didn't know the root problem. Because, they were also taught like that. They knew, but only the derived problem. And we are carrying their knowledge since generations by generations and 5000 years past without any ray of hope of creating a cheerful humanity. By using mind we can never create a cheerful and contented humanity. No way. No matter how great intellectual person he or she is. Heart is the only and only and only and only way out to create cheerful and contented humanity. There is no other way out. I explored this. Didn't we try so many things and it didn't work.
Heart knows beauty, love. The appreciation. Heart can appreciate something. It can feel. Look at the heart of Shakespeare, Wordsworth, John Milton, Michael Angelo, Mozart, Beethoven, Leonardo DA Vinci. All these artist were in between 1500 to 1800. I consider this era as the golden era of art. Year 1850 onwards scientific era started. So many great scientists appeared after 1850. But very like Mozart. Because, society became mind based. Society after 1850 is mind based. Society before 1850 we primarily heart based for the reason so many great artist appeared.

Knowledge

How to get knowledge? But first make sure you don't have knowledge. Sometimes this happens. You have knowledge and you are searching knowledge. It's easy actually. It's so easy that it has become word's most rare phenomena. It's extremely difficult to do extremely easy task. Because, that's what society had taught us. Society always taught us to think big, do something great. They never taught us to do something simple, something easy. The more arduous problem you solve the more society will praise you. That's why we have forgot how to do easy work. We can do difficult work but not easy work. Self-realization is actually the easiest phenomena but yet the rarest. Why it happened to Buddha and it's not happening to you? Imagine that night when Buddha was sitting under peepal tree. Amazing would had been that night. That was the night? of knowledge. What he did that night? What actually happened that night? Except that night he was doing something before. That was the first night he stopped doing anything. And it happened. The whole existence descend in him. He become one with entire creation. The moment he stopped from within he became infinite. Supremely free. It happened within a second. He did so much penance in the past that's not that important. The important moment is when it happened. Actually nothing happened that time. Before that it was happening. That's why it was not happening. Because it was happening.
Happenings can prevent happenings. Knowledge can debar you to gain knowledge. Remember Kaalidaas was cutting the same branch of tree on which he was sitting. Something like this happened with Buddha that day. He cut that substrate on which his ego was sitting. And when that substrate is cut he became one with whole consciousness. Again it's not your fault. This is how society has been progressing. Society simply doesn't want you to become like Buddha. Society wants you to help society growing and multiplying. This is what they have taught you. You would need huge amount of momentum to overcome the inertia society taught you. Only thing the society taught you is the crap. They have not taught you anything except crap. The whole education is crap. Because, it is mind based. Mind is the worst part of the body. Heart is probably the best part of body. Society never created a school where heart development is taught. Not even a single school in the whole world where heart development is taught. That's strange. Society doesn't what you to laugh. Society doesn't want you to be happy. People actually get frightened to see happy person. They start thinking why he is happy for no reason? They become mad to see a happy person a lovable person. This is what you did with Jesus. He was happy and lovable person. You crucified him. Didn't you throw stones at Buddha? You did. Why? Because trust me - you don't like happy and laughing people. Society wants crying people. Crying humanity. Society doesn't want contented humanity. The more you cry the more crap you do the more society will praise you. If you want society to help you keep crying. Cry as much you can. But if you are happy for no appearent reason society will send you pain. And the moment you try to do something on heart level. They will simply crucify you. Jesus was perhaps the first and last person who ever dared to work at heart level. And he was crucified. After that no body dared so far. Who wants to be crucified? Society will never let you to use your heart. Society will ask you to use your mind. Because, mind can't open the doorway to God. No possibility. There is some chance that heart can open the doorway to infinite. That's why society has closed it. They closed all the doors by which you can merge into infinite. But some people like Jesus and Mahavira had that momentum to overcome that.

Mind

Mind is not always helpful. It has to be dropped. I never wanted this much intelligence. I wanted billionth fraction of my current ingelligency. Now it's like a burden in the head. You have to drop to the extent that you have nothing else to drop. Mind is so treacherous that it can act like a heart. Mind is the supreme controller of the body. Buddha dropped his mind. He went beyond mind. And after mind only existence remains. A pure silent existence. In the modern psychology, there is no scope after mind. Mind is the last. In the east, mind is not the last.Existence is the last.

Mind works on logic. And every logic has a counter logic which can negate the use of mind. Mind only knows the past. Your current mental status is the function of past. Mind is never in present. It's in either past or future. None of them exists. So mind doesn't exist. What's all there is just pure present existence. Nothing more can be done than the existence. Impossible. Nobody could do. Existence is the last game. There is nothing beyond this.

Heart is slightly better than mind. Heart is life. Heart is love. Better. Much better than the logic at least. Because logic is always incomplete. Both positive and negative number exist together. God and bad exist together. Both are part of existence. Actually, good is not good, bad is not bad. Good and bad are taking social parameters into account. To society certain things can be good or bad. But to absolute it makes no difference. And since our consciousness is not at the root level so mind becomes active. And once mind is active you will see the dualism. You will see difference. Huge difference. Such a big difference that even you mind is not capable of handing that. When you are at root, mind is inactive else its always active.Let me tell what happened with Buddha. Buddha did intense penance for 6 years. But nothing was happening. He used his mind. He applied many techniques. He started taking extremely low food intake. His body became like thin skeleton. Still no sign of divinity. He thought if I am the consciousness then why do I need food? But later he understood that the body has it's own demand. Finally he became tired. He sat under the Peepal tree in Bodhgaya. That time he had nothing else to do. Nothing. He had tried a lot. Nothing worked. Now his mind has nothing to work upon. Now there is no place for his mind. Remember mind always need something to work upon. That time Buddha's mind has nothing to work upon. So where will the mind will go? The mind will simply vanish. Only pure consciousness will remain. There Buddha's mind dropped and he became infinite. He remained in that super consciousness state for many days. Once can get inspiration from Buddha's life.Mind always need something to work. Because you are always working. You are always thinking. Society has made you a thinker. Buddha was an observer. He was not a thinker. Thinking is opposite of meditation. In thinking mind is active, in meditation mind is inactive.
