Hello, my friends, how are you?
So I'm still traveling but I had a few moments and I thought I'd chair,
what's
drifting across the screen of my consciousness this morning.
I'm in India and uh the emphasis here seems
to be uh everything I can talk about abundance
and abundance of course is
what everyone wants. But sometimes they confuse it with just money.
Money is part of abundance, it's not everything.
So I thought what I'd share with you
today a very fundamental secret to create abundance.
Affluence in your life.
The abundance in your life is directly proportional to your sense of self.
So all we all have a sense of self
starts with our name,
our career, our job, our
personal and social relationships,
our religion, sometimes our economic status,
our history,
the history of our ancestors, our tribe or ethnicity or nationality etcetera.
This is the sense of self that we call
the personal self but it it can also be
called the ego self without any any denigration.
Egos part of our personality.
It is what you'll discover. If you check somebody out on linkedin for example,
you'll see the name, you'll see their career, you'll see the hobbies,
you will see something about their person and social relationships.
You might see their bio recommendations from others.
All of that creates a sense of identity
and that identity then projects as
um
everything in your life,
the situations,
circumstances,
um events, relationships, happenings are all a direct projection of that identity
but that identity is not only
provisional and impermanent and hopefully
evolving.
It is constrictive, it is constrictive because it is based on
you might say
models of reality,
mental constructs of reality and not the true reality.
So let's see how you could expand your sense of self.
Who are you? What are you?
As I mentioned before, some of you may have seen this. Some maybe not.
Your body is created out of what we call genes,
24,000 genes and about two million bacterial genes.
The genes are stretches of DNA deoxyribonucleic acid,
adenine, guanine, cytosine timing.
Those in turn are made of atoms carbon, hydrogen,
oxygen and nitrogen and other elements of the periodic table,
phosphorus sulfur are in etcetera, magnesium.
So, and those elements in turn were created from the crucible of burning stars.
So basically your body
is in
reality a construction of the universe.
Total universe. 50% of the items in your body come from the Milky Way Galaxy,
another 50% from other Galaxies and two trillion of them.
And these items are sucked into a galaxy by a phenomenon called gravitational wind,
wind,
Okay, and as that fertilized egg that was the start of your birth
or the start of your existence this time around
as that fertilized egg evolves, sorry,
goes through a process called morpho genesis to give rise to form
and differentiation to create eyes, nose hard, labor brain, fingernails,
genitalia, whatever they were spleen bladder.
So that's differentiation from a single stem cell that divides itself 50 times
and there you are
the human entrance as a baby into planet Earth.
So even as that single cell differentiates and morphs
into a human being
with
body
in the theater of
space time and causality
even as it does that your your
appearance as a baby is preceded by your appearance as a primate,
as a mammal as a reptile.
And of course there are all these bacteria and
through gestation through those nine months after conception,
you actually replicate the evolution of species.
So you have in your body right now, not only
stuff that was manufactured
in the crucible of burning stars
and the history of cosmic evolution, you have in your body, the history
of biological evolution, the evolution of species.
So given this framework, who you really are is the universe
the total universe packaged
in a bag of skin and bones
and squeezed into the volume of a body in the span of a lifetime.
But you are
the universe
in
exotic motion
as um
Rumi once said.
Now if you have that sense of stuff, wow,
then you are not restricted by your identities.
Provisional identities, whether the ethnic or religious or whatever.
You're not restricted by them.
I'm sorry for this sound that's coming in the background. I can't help it.
It's part of the noise
produced by machines, also an aspect of the universe.
Okay, so it's quieting down and I can speak loudly,
it doesn't matter just pay attention to my words, ignore the other sound.
So given what I've told you, you are the universe
in exotic motion. But now look at it another way
the universe
itself is a creation of you.
You say oh I understand how the watch is created by human beings,
but how is the universe created by human beings?
Well the universe you and I experience is created by human
beings because all it is is a construction of perceptual experiences
through raw sensations.
Sounds, textures, tastes, smells
and as a result of interpreting those taste smells raw sensations.
We create perceptions with meaning
and we call them objects, we call them a watch or a phone or a hand
or a hand or a face or glasses. But all these are
conceptual
models of
the raw material of sensation.
So the universe that you see is not out there,
it is a construction in your awareness and that includes your body,
body is also construction in awareness.
Raw sensations given meaning meaning becomes perception,
perception is an experience rarefied as an object out there. But there is no there
the whole universe body mind all minds, all bodies
everything
that we call creation
exists in awareness alone, including animals, trees, minerals, plants,
and everything else.
And you are that awareness admin
is ramen.
So
if
that is so
then the universe itself is your construction.
So it doesn't matter how we look at it.
Okay. And that enthuse your party because you are the formless,
eternal timeless
being
that is differentiating itself into all know ear's all modes of knowing,
all sentient beings and all their experiences which
they interpret as objects
separate from them. But that's a misconception. We call it magical, I maya
and that is what bamboos is us
into restrictive creativity. But if you want unlimited creativity,
then you to deconstruct everything.
Find your source
as
infinite possibilities, nonlocal correlation,
infinite creativity, self regulation, self evolution
and,
and synchronicity and unpredictability and the
source of all attention and intention.
That's who you are. So as long as long as you know that
then there are no restrictions to the abundance you can create.
You have to have
some culpa a subtle intention, you have to transcend and you let
you have to let the infinite organizing
power of consciousness take over
and that consciousness is you because you
our artman and as artman
you are brahman,
let me know if you agree or disagree. But
I thought this might be good to share. Maybe it'll trigger something
and you
no longer be bamboozled or constrained by
restrictive constructs.
Thank you
and have a wonderful day
