The moment you are born, you prepare to face your death; that’s the truth
Yesterday something dawned on me; how can something that is a creation of yourself become the higher consciousness that one is searching for. Creating a thought and building it to be what you have been searching for you can always find and get enlightened. So my theory of two selves can go baseless if the internal self becomes a creation of the external self. So … Continue reading The moment you are born, you prepare to face your death; that’s the truth
Clarifications on my recent post “open letter to my Teachers”
My recent post “An open letter to my teachers” did raise a few comments where people mistook my intention and message and I felt it was important to write a clarification.

First thing, … Continue reading Clarifications on my recent post “open letter to my Teachers”

My attempt has been … Continue reading You should start seeing yourself from inside and not outside

A complete man has two selves, internal and external and both need to be set free
I grew up being taught that if you are in complete control of your emotions and if you put several controls on yourself both physically and in thoughts you will be able to reach a higher level of consciousness. This statement was always armored by pointing to great yogic saints and people like Mahatma Gandhi who through strict control of their body and mind brought … Continue reading A complete man has two selves, internal and external and both need to be set free
