What is not love ?

-



Humanized in this physical manifestation called body, and segmented by the feel of life, in-terms of the ego, segregating itself into various forms, it is very essential for me to gain an insight, or more-over find the meaning when one talks of Love. And reasonably, everyone around the world, each and every person, of any race, creed or religion, necessarily talks about the feeling that is called love. Might be in multiple criterion's of the word, or the feel that it brings in. Love, is the most costly and the cheapest word, that is invented by humanity.

As, I have observed, along the way of my growth, internally and externally, it seems to me that when most of the people are stating about love, it has two means and ends, which has something to do with the biological fringe and psychological manifestation of the body-mind attraction experience. And this is a very mechanical way of stating about love. It also seems that "love" is used in a fancy way of business and the idea of possession over certain person or thing. A possession-less, love is rarely seen. Psychologist, suggest even a mom-children love relation has a very crucial and subtle surface where it is about possession, rather than what the world presume to be unconditional.

We have a very unusual way of explaining about love, we say, he fell in love. So in the way of its vernacular , it seem to be something used as surrender point, without intention, that is inbound like gravity. But beyond that cosmology of words, we can see that Love, is a pain in ass, for variety of people. Its a monotony of actions and fun with the feelings, its like a doodling of two children fighting over a remote control for the control of large scale television, as their, collective effort of making life. It seems, in a way, that what I am stating is offending the regularized mind, which might argue that necessarily no one can explain love and its not right to do so. And accept that, but if so, the humanity full of people loving each other, getting married, producing babies, perusing the observation of love making, and an emotional orgy of relationship with each other in various names, seems to be down facing and rapidly moving towards the end of the known humanity. Its irrational, and not inclusive to the idea that the humanity that feels love in everyday life is facing depressing problem and living a very sadistic life, so, there must be a gap here, where Love is not even born in a heart of human, and what is described as love is just a attraction and feeling of possession and exploitation.

So, for the convince of the words, love is not what love is, the way it is presented and explained. Love is not the marketed phenomenon shown in movies, songs and explained in religious doctrine. If it actually was, then the world would definitely be full with devotion to each other, gratitude, trust and friendliness among people.

You might not have heard of the ancient Greek symbol called 'Ouroboros'. But you should, because it is one of the most fascinating symbol. The Ouroboros is a Greek word meaning 'tail devourer,' and is one of the oldest mystical symbols in the world. It can be perceived as enveloping itself, where the past (the tail) appears to disappear but really moves into an inner domain or reality, vanishing from view but still existing.  Alchemical Symbol of Ouroboros Ouroboros is generally depicted as a Serpent or a Dragon biting its own tail. The first recorded history of such symbol is in Egypt at around 1600 BCE in the texts called    Enigmatic Book of the Netherworld. The symbol moved from Egyptians to Phoenicians and finally to Greeks. Where the symbol got its name OUROBOROS.  The symbol and the myth regarding the symbol is famous all over the world. In the Norse mythology its called Jormungandr. And in the Hindu mythology its related to the Kundalini Jagaran.

Heraclitus was a Greek philosopher of Ephesus. He is possibly the first Greek philosopher to explain the unity in all experience. And how change is the only constant in the universe. Heraclitus is also sometime known as the Philosopher of Riddles. For many people don't understand him. Heraclitus introduced the world with the word 'Logos', which means that 'all things are one in some sense'. Even the opposites are needed for the occurrence of action. Heraclitus explained that change is the core of all things. And within the changing framework lies the unity of opposites.  Heraclitus by unknown artist  Osho in the book Hidden Harmony praises Heraclitus as the greatest Buddha of the world. He says,  Heraclitus is one of the greatest Buddhas of the world. In western philosophy his name is not part of the mainstream. The mainstream consists of Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Kant, Hegel, Bertrand Russell, Wittgenstein, Moore. Heraclitus is something like an

The Concept of Equanimity !

Equanimity comes from a Latin word æquanimitas, which means to have an even mind. But the concept goes much deeper. Much of all ancient philosophies and religions talk about equanimity. Aequss meaning even, and Animus meaning mind/soul.   Marcus Aurelius, one of the stoic philosopher and an emperor in his book Meditations stated that: When force of circumstance upsets your equanimity, lose no time in recovering your self-control, and do not remain out of tune longer than you can help. Habitual recurrence to the harmony will increase your mastery of it. In the context of Sanatan Dharma (Hinduism) Equanimity is used to describe the Brahman Nature. In more detailed understanding since the Brhaman cannot ever be explained. We can just rejoice its being. Hence Equanimity means the unattached and undisturbed being'ness. Which is what we all are primarily as. Not the state of mind which we exist upon but the pure sense of nature. The real nature. So, equanimity can
