JUST LIVE

Barring how to make the existence of life balanced and simpler for the universe nothing in this world is worth thinking or worrying about. Neither achievement nor failure, neither theory nor practice, neither friends nor enemies, neither strangers nor relatives, neither good nor bad events, neither food nor sex, neither affluence nor poverty, nothing is worth it. There is nothing in this world that is unchanging, strong and permanent which can be attributed to the efforts of a single individual. Everything around here is malleable, yielding and in a constant flux of changing to the demands of countless desires from the minds of countless individuals. Everything is a creation of some creatures’ mind, a game of someone’s mind; it comes into play and disappears over time. It is worthless to waste time clinging on to a thought, a wish, an emotion, a relation, an achievement, what so ever because some body else with a fresh desire erases the previous one. The purpose of life then is to just live. Live for the present moment, live with whatever is available and be contended / happy in every circumstance. This applies to all life forms.

Individual life forms appear from nothing and return to nothing or there is yet another way to see it; individual life forms appear from infinity and return to infinity. The shape and size of life forms have been changing over the ages. Therefore the biggest fear of any life form on this planet seems to be the fear of disintegration. In every age it has taken a whole lot of effort to sew or cobble together the practical workable shape of a specie which is a balanced mix of numerous bacteria, micro-organism or whatever you can call a basic matter, which can regenerate itself as well as reproduce itself. To regenerate because every second numerous cells in the body die and new cells are formed from the food that is digested and to reproduce is to bring forth another creature with similar features and abilities. Every individual shape / form takes utmost care of its own preservation and any chance for it to fall apart and disintegrate is greatly feared. Every injury, every accident every potential threat is avoided and every other effort is cultivated which helps to preserve the individuals balance. Thus species evolved and became selfish to the preservation of its own kind because suddenly some event would occur in a constantly changing universe which would destroy the shape of life and then once again would begin the creation of a new world. Therefore the identity with the a form and its preservation are inborn traits for creativity and insecurity in every life form. It is another story that the balance of nature is such that every action has an equal opposite reaction and therefore all the efforts put into creation of a life form is destined to meet up with its reaction which possibly is its natural death in time.

The body which is a benignant binding of various basic matters gives rise to an identity, a sense of being apart from the universe. The intelligence of the basic matter which created the current forms of life also provided impetus to the creation of mind as a platform to coordinate between the body and intelligence for self-preservation and progeny. Fortunately or unfortunately (since it is debatable whether it was by design or accident) for humans it refined and evolved to an extent that it became capable of thinking beyond its present needs and working both the body and intelligence towards some obscene goals. In no other creature do we observe such abilities. The human mind thus got carried away in its superiority complex over other life forms and this lead to the creation of the ego. The ego continues to plays games of creativity and then celebrates or suffers its consequences and this goes on as an unending sequence. A successful as well as a unsuccessful creation gives way to a desire for an improvement, a desire for something better. In this silly race, the human mind has lost track of concepts of universal balance and has definitely forgotten that the original purpose of creation was only preservation until the next destruction. Also it is of no consequence whether one believes in karmic life after death (rebirth / reincarnation) or in the materialistic concept of ‘You Only Live Once’ (YOLO). In a minor sense creation and destruction in either situations are both products of the mind and goes on cyclically without an end. In a major sense too creation and destruction are beyond the control of individual efforts and goes on unending over time. Therefore life is meant to just live.
