LIFE – Let It Flow Easy!!

Competition – the dictionary meaning of which is ‘the activity or condition of STRIVING to gain or win something by defeating or establishing SUPERIORTY over others’. The two words to take note of – STRIVING and SUPERIORTY. That’s so much against the flow of life itself and also EGO boosting. It strips us off our natural free flowing existential self of BE-ing.

We are conditioned to believe that life is difficult. That life is a struggle.  Stuart Wilde’s “Life was never meant to be a struggle” beautifully explains this part of EGO’s need.

Every flower that blossoms, every tree just is.  A rose blossoms not with the idea of being revered as a symbol of love or seeking approval of its very existence or establishing superiority over other fellow roses. But for some reason we humans do. We are bigger, better, more intelligent , more spiritual than fellow humans. Seeking approval is the EGO construct.  How can success be defined in defeating the other? It’s that part of the AI which we need to unlearn and we need to take actions towards not passing it on to the next generation.

This whole universe is an effortless beautiful art of existence and evolution at the same time. Our human bodies are a classic example of how intricate, scientific and effortless the system is.  We don’t make our hearts beat, we don’t make our stomach produce the necessary chemicals to digest food, we don’t or rather can’t  tell our lungs, kidneys, pancreas or for that matter how the brain should function or how a broken bone should heal itself or how the white blood cells decide to fight any illness. It is just simply perfectly designed.  Even in people with special needs, despite mental challenges, the hearts continue to beat, stomach continues to digest – the basics work effortlessly.  Effort, struggle is against the flow of life per se.  The idea that life is nothing but struggle is just one of those attachment to our ideas, thoughts if you delve deeper.

But for the law of duality, we would not experience the difference between self and the other.  To that extent we have to embrace the difference.  However, when we start feeding ourselves with the idea of us being better than the other, we reject the perfection in nature. Sub-consciously we demonstrate this aspect of our conditioned thinking in practically everything we do – from grades, to car, to houses, to bank balances, to looks, to clothes, to jewellery, to family lineage – name it and its there.
Transformation is something that is very different from change.  When a thing doesn’t retain its original characteristic that is transformation.  The making of a caterpillar into a butterfly is transformation.  Competition thus has to be transformed into collaboration – the act of working together with someone to make something.

Collaboration is about embracing, understanding and respecting our inter-dependency on everything. Its not about winning or feeding the ego. Its understanding and reminding ourselves of the fact that no man is an island.  That we are not bigger than nature, but when we align with our true spirit we demonstrate the truth of Godliness or being God ourselves. Since thats what we are made of – that God particle.

Words will defeat the beauty in this video.
