Finally ^^ done my finals. I'm glad I didn't give up half way, it feels great to not give up something so easily and knowing you've tried your best and finish it till the very end no matter how the results are.
Something I realize today after some reflection, that is "OUR THOUGHTS each and every second" will change our destiny, will drive our direction in this life, may be even change the outcome of the next.
Is strange how a single thought that are being propel into action will alter our final results just by a single change in a thought. I can imagine the level of "awareness" that Buddha taught. Is really what we need to know to open up our wisdom eyes and wake up our ignorance and put our "ego" to sleep. Because with the BIG "EGO", will never be able to see things clearly forever and ever, cause whatever we see would be through our physical eyes and our own self interpretation. This is already so true when you ask yourself "how other perceive you, is it same as how you see yourself??" is totally two different version of the same story. So how can we believe truly that what we see is the real thing?? When we close our eyes, we only see darkness.....so how our world will be???
ALL IN ALL, HOWEVER WE MAKE IT SO COMPLICATED OF WHO WE REALLY ARE IN UNIVERSE, WE"RE JUST A SMALL TINY LITTLE DOT PERHAPS...OR PERHAPS WE ARE JUST ATOMS GATHER TOGETHER AND SPLIT WHEN LIFE"S END....SO I GUESS WE GO BACK TO THE UNIVERSE ITSELF AND ARE PART OF THE UNIVERSE ITSELF. May be the body "I" that we perceived now is just temporary...is it an illusion??
So why are all this war??...all this inequality??....what money really are?? (all created by complicated human beings).....why the distinguishment between the rich and the poor??.......all existed based on a wrong little thought and perception of a single person......can you imagine everyone having the wrong view, wrong perception, wrong knowledge of the true law of the universe, no true teacher to guide us.......and the whole world go hay wire....upside down....out of order....how sad it is!! The world can be so simple and peaceful.....!!
As you can imagine, how big the Universe is, during one conversation I had with my friend, she reminded me something that I haven't thought about, that is "Did you realize everything is really moving in a circle even the Universe, the milky way??" what an enlightening phrase.....really!! is true, even our lives, animal lives, any living beings including plants and things that have life, they all go in in a CYCLE. They pull the energy and forces together to form life and at the end of life cycle, their atoms split and back to its original form. So, really nothing to gain or loose in this very life time...cause if we really see things clearly with UNIVERSAL EYES....everything in terms of atoms....it really makes a lot sense.....how big the universe are.....Always encouter in BUDDHIST TEXT....WHERE BUDDHA DID mentioned that our Universe consists of " 3 thousand big thousand world"...I think Buddha's word has a deeper meaning to it. He allow us to see how limitless the universe is, hence knowing how limited we're when comes to knowledge and wisdom. Comparing the smallest molecules of atoms.....to as big as the Universe....there are really lots of things we're really unaware about and can't see with our naked eyes.
In buddhist text....they talk about "karma", the more I look into buddhism, the more I believe that "karma" is the universal law...what goes around really comes around...did you notice this is in a loop or circle again?? How strange!
So, is there really reincarnation? is there cause and effect??.....
I do believe so myself. I don't think animals are born to be eaten, is just an act of humankind that we've passed on from one generation to the next...through our culture, that's what we've been told...probably the wrong way....and we follow...without awareness what we're really doing in each minute of our life....just eat just sleep just enjoy...and that's one LIFE. Is there much better and more meaningful thing that we can do? perhaps find out our own salvation....why are we still in CIRCLE??? IS THERE ANYWAY OUT OF THIS CIRCLE?? I THINK BUDDHA HAS ALL THIS ANSWER. I REALLY ADMIRE HIM FOR ALL HIS WISDOM and HOW HE CAN SEE THE UNIVERSE SO CLEARLY. He really had a TORCH in his hand to light up the road in front....a true teacher....through his eyes we can see things more clearly in this life time with another broaden perspective...yes...life can be live in many ways, how meaningful and how compassion we want is all up to us.....is just a single thought....can change how our lives are being live. We really have a choice. THROUGH TRUE reflection only We'll be able to see ourselves clearly and ONLY THROUGH "AWARENESS" we can see the TRUTH.
We actually haven't really open up our consciousness yet...we just follow suit what other people say or do...being brainwash in some ways.....
REALLY....I really felt that everything in this UNIVERSE HAS LIFE.....PRECIOUS!! HOW CAN WE JUST IGNORE THAT WHEN WE KILLED AN ANIMAL FOR FOOD THAT WE ASSUME THAT THEY ARE DEAD....I DON"T THINK IS THAT SIMPLE, THEIR CONCIOUSNESS MIGHT STILL EXIST. THEIR CONCIOUSNESS ARE NO DIFFERENT than HUMAN BEINGS......and when you think clearly.....THEIR ANATOMY IS QUITE SAME AS humans. SO HOW DIFFERENT THEY're??? THE DIFFERENCE OF MORE SUPERIOR BEING IS ALL MAN MADE and thought to be true....how correct we're we will know when karma is here, when the fruit ripe. A very good example and quite logical is that ....may be in a farm...let say they earn a lot of money via life's of animals....but when old and sick....have to pay out all this money to cover cost of medicare and yet suffer from all this sickness of dying painfully...is this Karma?? a means of paying back??
So, I believe in one true teaching, no doubt about it.....
AWARENESS, RIGHT THOUGHTS, RIGHT VIEW, COMPASSION and LOVING KINDNESS and CULTIVATION TO HEIGHTEN ONE's MORAL, MAKING and ALLOWING OUR HEART TO TUNE IN TO A CHANEL in the RIGHT FREQUENCY to see THE TRUTH of OUR LIVES in this very life time.
ENLIGHTENMENT IS A GREAT ROUTE,
May we all see it...........and may we all find our true self.....
and able to see the truth for once truly and clearly for ourselves in this very life time.
With great metta,
mei chin.
