The notorieties that have been facilitated by the
Internet lately is proof that somewhere along the way
man started clawing back at the gains he made from that innovation.
The clawing back has also caused him pain.
Seeking remedies for that pain has
exacerbated his clawing back.
Need it be stated anymore to be seen clearly?
The information age did not have to last long enough
to reveal that it had really been an informatic-nuclear-winter of sorts.
Where the inundation of information in all its forms
has rendered man unable to live and breathe freely (literally).
For the first time in history, humans of all ages are paying the price
through many psychological and physiological deteriorations.
And yes, even toddlers are not spared who are being "babysitted"
by the apps on the iPad and not their parents or real babysitters.
Beyond the gloriousness of comfort, innovation, and progress that it has offered,
the moment one takes a deeper and sincere look into the innate individualistic talent,
and the families and relationships that have been sacrificed to fuel them,
they will be reminded of the shitshow it has really been.
It does not hesitate me a little in saying...
The only beneficial thing
that these varied mediums of communication have enabled,
has been that the rarest of the rare sages
have been served in having their voice heard.
And that Truth has come to the limelight.
Yes.
Truth.
The Truth.
What is the Truth?
I do not care about what you think it is.
For I myself never did. I still do not.
I will never care about "Truth".
Truth - it is just a word after all.
But the entity which hides behind the font size, color,
and other informatic traits,
the moment your Mind registers the depiction
T R U T H
is really, truly, totally Magical.
(To say the least).
In the manner "Truth" is merely a word,
Sage, Guru, Asceticism, Spirituality, Devotion, Enlightenment, etc. are as well.
In ways, they are less truthful of words. They are buzzwords. Labels.
The picture that they paint for you is an utter lie.
In detesting the seeking of Truth about your life
because you would rather not be some mystic, loner, guru, or ascetic,
is merely the other side of the delusion
of relentlessly seeking some "Truth" to escape your tortures
and finding some perennial euphoria.
In zeroing on to the hidden mysteries of a supreme existence,
one also realizes that an almost ascetic, yet elevated existence is the way to
experience freedom in this imprisoned reality of today.
In wondering what is it that one truly desires from the numbered days of his existence,
one also realizes that all that he has done thus far is given himself up
to the energy-draining tentacles of society.
In looking back at his feasting and gorging
driven by his pleasure-centric days, weeks, months, years, and decades,
one also realizes he is still hungry,
and has yet to get a taste of his deeper, humane, and artistic abilities.
If this Truth is dawning slowly but surely on to you,
you are not alone.
Neither by reading the line above, have you found an ally.
For the journey for the Truth is one of finding an ally deep in yourself.
It is fully embracing that which man labels loneliness or solitude.
And in doing so,
become invincible to the devious tricks
and intricate ploys of The Mind
that has been in full control
of you all this time.
Thank you.
