The Foundation

Posted by Suman on Oct 29, 2020

A thing or an entity

is as strong as its foundation.

This is true not only for mutual or social things -

relationship, family, company, business, or institution,

but also for a human's greatest ally - his (tamed) Mind,

and the only tangible asset he is

bestowed with - his Body.


In my life, I have noticed many things about those around me.

One thing, I notice over and over again.

Very, very few are willing to face the Truth about themselves.

And then fewer, are willing to do so about their bodies.

This is why the domain that deals with the Mind,

is bigger and more famous than that which deals with the Body.

Nonetheless, both are corrupted by labels

and labels nested in and hidden under those labels.

Because no one bothered to make the connection between the two.


The domain of the Mind is a thick veil swarming with

psychologists, psychotherapists, life-coaches, advisors,

and many other "ists" that I am forgetting day by day.

The domain of the Body also has a veil of lies

to keep the humans from the Truth,

albeit, thinner and less glorified than that of the Mind -

strength coaches, yoga or pilates instructors, physiotherapists,

massage therapists, etc.


The veil of lies of the mainstream or even the high-end services

in the domain of the Body,

has been doing many things to make a human big,

strong, flexible, fast, agile, etc.

The gist of all their doings is the same.

To keep the human from realizing their Foundation.

Because as stated in the introduction,

one's Body is as strong as their Foundation.

The overused and thus, the misguiding label for this foundation is -

"Core".

But the Truth is something else.

And thus, no matter how "focussed and determined" one is on paper,

they will do everything to run away from the attainment of that Truth.

The very moment they hear or read the label "core",

they immediately succumb to the noise of

further lies and labels around it.

"Core" is not the foundation.

"Core" is a label.

Labels are LABELS.

Truth is Truth...


Both the Body and the Mind

share the same foundation.


Unfortunately, I cannot provide you more labels for this foundation.

For your Mind will immediately make further labels out of them.

I will describe the truth in words.

This Foundation exists and yet does not exist.

To the average human, it will appear as two different entities,

one in the front and one in the back of his body.

But in reality, there is only one.

A human will do everything to not Realize it.

In fact, his entire life will be about going in circles around it

and making a big deal of things that allow him its sniff here and there.

Others will desecrate their foundation throughout their lives,

and live a largely hedonistic life.


The few will fall and fall and fall,

get tired of falling,

and rise amidst a crowd of sloths, thieves, and cowards.

But their rise will be because of a partial realization of their Foundation.

To the athlete tired of his injuries and therapy,

the Foundation will only register as his abs and his lower back.

His "awakening" will be the imprisoning need to "exercise"

them to not get injured and keep training.

The yogi student will be told by his teacher that the foundation is their "kundalini".

I know as little as to what comes out of that, as I know of such enticing labels.

Others who realize it in any other way,

will live a mostly "enlightened" life appearing as a successful

businessman or some other prized attainment to the world.


Very, very, very few

will insist on arriving at the absolute

nucleus of their Foundation. And in doing so,

will become that which man has only read stories about.

Something, man is yet to know or hear of in real life.

Thank you.
