Wisdom Of Wellness: Perpetuity Of Poise Of Purpose - Santosh Jha (best ereader for academics .TXT) 📗

which accepts and combines all good and cherished ideals and models of all wisdoms – old or new. This shall be an ideal contemporary positioning for the pop mystic.

This new spiritualism should work out towards larger wellness of individual, society as well as larger worldview. Moreover, it should endow us with a thought-behavior-action platform, which optimizes all processes of humanity and this world, enabling our potentials to reach a new high in peaceful coexistence.

Let us translate this holistic-assimilative-integrative model of new spiritualism in six core domains of life and living – Self, Family, Work, Society, World and Beyond Life. Each one of us can have our own subjective and personalized model of spiritualism. However, these models must ideally conform to and be in perfect symmetry with the holistic-assimilative-integrative model of new spiritualism, which is in sync with contemporary common sense.

When you design and evolve your own personalized and subjective spiritualism model, the core ideas of overall wellness and excellence must be retained and adhered to. The choices and priorities can be subjective and all the operative ideas, thoughts, behaviors and action can be designed suiting to personal requirements. However, the following notions must be part of any model we create: -

The core principle must always be holism, assimilation and integration of all wisdoms and knowledge of humanity and never ever reject anything out-rightly. There is always some utility in even the seemingly worst of futility. Always remember, one does not necessarily have to be wrong for another to be right. Coexistence is always better.

We have a mechanism and this body-mind mechanism must always be in perpetuity of poise and overall homeostasis. Your spiritual model must ensure bio-sociological, psychological, emotional, spiritual as well as volitional homeostasis.

The body-mind homeostasis or poise is largely a function of internal emotional stability, poise and positivity. However, internal emotions are deeply affected by elements from our external environment, especially the ambient societal milieu. To minimize external disturbances to internal emotions, one must accept love, absolute intimacy and compassion as core elements of the spiritual model. This necessitates action-behavior benchmarks of nondiscrimination, tolerance and nonaggression, moderation and non-self-gratification as well as perpetuation of pursuits for knowledge and wisdom.

The higher consciousness is the ultimate personality positioning and to attain that, mysticism is a transitional situation. This stage is reached with a receptive-mode consciousness, breaking free from the auto-mode reactive consciousness. The spiritualism model must work out for a life and living schedule, which allows quality leisure time for self and family.

Most importantly; if we see the larger picture and accept facts objectively, with whatever knowledge humanity has so far evolved and understood, we shall have to accept that all life on earth, including humans and its evolution is one huge random and multi-dimensional event-cyclicality. On the other hand, what we humans make out of it and charter our own ways for survival, purpose and excellence is another multi-dimensional cyclicality. Both forces, though inter-dependent only at the core and having some patterns, which can be replicable, still, they remain highly and intricately randomized. The element of unpredictability, inadvertence, accidentality and asymmetricality in both largely sovereign forces of the cosmos only ensures that humanity can never ever remain in perpetuity of singular purpose, peace and order. Especially in contemporary situation, when humanity long before evolved and acquired the criticality of conscious intelligence, which is bound to lead it to ever-growing entropy (degrading randomization) and ultimate extinction in the long run. Finding a purpose and purity of singular pattern or model of culture and virtuosity for global community seems out of question. The mechanism of cosmic realism never ever seems to allow it. It is more impossible now. The wise can only understand that and find its own ‘personalized and subjective peace’. Anyone, who arrives at the higher consciousness of higher objectivity, can clearly unravel this mystery. That is why; spiritualism also needs to be very personalized and subjective. You have the genius in you and you can do it. All best.

Reverting To God’s ‘Original’ Design

The great scientist and a highly evolved mind, Einstein, once said, ‘we shall require a substantially new manner of thinking, if mankind is to survive’. This new thinking is of course at the center of all modern contemporary endeavors of humanity.

We are fast becoming a very complex living being and the environment, be it physical, economic or societal, is also becoming so complex, making it hugely tough for an average and common human being. Things have turned far more difficult from the time when Einstein said this.

The basic things, which count substantially for the larger wellness of an average human being, are now the core factors responsible for people’s stress, troubles and negativity. The first probably is relationship and second the workplace. People now admit and even surveys confirm that average human being derives majority of his or her stress, pain and negativity from relationships and from workplace. Both, once the prime source of wellness are the core areas of stress and troubles now.

As humbly and sincerely as we could possibly put it, it has to be said that both troubles emanate from the dualistic consciousness, which is a product of our insistence to refuse to see and accept the dynamics of human mechanism. It is crucial to understand the mechanism of humans to arrive at a non-dualistic consciousness, which then helps us understand in objectivity and singularity all key questions of humanity. This surely is part of the ‘new thinking’ required for the wellness and survival of humans.

The new thinking is sincerely attempting to put forth a novel vision and wisdom to understand how we humans have evolved, how our societies and cultures have evolved and more importantly, how our consciousness evolves with respect to drastic changes we humans have made into our own physical and cultural environment. Once we understand and accept the dynamics of this mechanism, we can easily and rightly understand the key questions or the problems affecting modern humanity.

Now, understand the mechanism. We are surely turning into a very intelligent species. This intelligence is reflected in the complexities of physical and cultural environments, which we humans have created over thousands of years. We live in very large societies, with diverse cultural and mental frameworks, with hugely corporatized and mega-structural work places needing complex and technologically intense work specialization. Even simple living is now a complex and highly structured living experience. Never ever humanity had to face the experience of anthill living in 100-storeyed apartments.

For a change, go to a jungle with closed views and static environment and live there for a month. You will definitely feel that your life has become a big boring thing as you have so little to do. Everything is so simple and restrictive that your brain actually has so little to do. You wake up, eat and then sleep. Every day, the experiences are similar and there is no challenge that could make you even think. Some of you may get to like it, as it is a definitive rest to your tired and tossed up senses and mind, which is so used to handling multiplicity of tasks every day.

It is a simple mechanism. Intelligence is in how much and how differentiated and complex inputs you feed to your mind for processing. Dumb is a person who may have a similar brain capacity as an intelligent one but the difference is, the dumb does not allow so many complex and varied inputs into his mind and keeps it simple. The more inputs you allow to your mind the more intelligent you are and more intelligent you are more confusion and more conflict shall be at your end. The dumb has this privilege of being less conflicted and so less troubled.

The huge trouble with humanity is; he or she wants to be intelligent yet wish to be free of conflicts and confusion! This is definitely against the mechanism. Life is simplest at unicellular level. A single cell living being has all his tasks well wired and purely instinctive. There is almost no conflict and confusion. The trouble starts when living beings develop multi-cellular and become intelligent. The life and living and its relationship with environment becomes complex. Humans are at the pinnacle of this intelligence and they have to be the most conflicted, confused and chaotic lot of all living beings on earth!

Now, important it is to understand what the great Einstein wished to tell us when we talked about the ‘new thinking’ for survival of humanity. Understanding this is crucial for humanity. Another great scientist has already warned us saying, ‘species tend to become extinct as evolution makes them intelligent enough to destroy completely the precarious poise with its environment’. Humans are already on the threshold of such a level of intelligence!

The need, as enunciated by great minds is to understand a simple fact. Be it the God’s design or the product of a very random process of stupid evolution; the fact remains unchanged that what and where humanity has come to be, has always had a greater element of ‘randomized and unplanned’ design into it. That is why; we have a world to live, which leaves so much to be desirable and wanted. This has to change if humans have to survive and excel. The uncertain, unplanned, random, uncontrolled element in the evolution or simply, the design has to be either reversed or pruned.

The desirability for a controlled and planned evolution is the energy behind the ‘new thinking’. For that to happen, we all need to be very clear in the mind that, what we are and what we have around us may be God’s design but what we made ourselves as and what we created out of that are certainly not God’s domain, it is purely human orchestration. If we change with impeccable level of planning, all those things which we humans created (and probably against God’s own design), we are certainly not anyway doing anything against God or divinity

Rather, probably, for the first time in human history, we humans are actually starting to correct ourselves and leading the humanity to something, which actually was God’s ‘original design’. This is new spiritualism of objective consciousness.

We humans now have this brilliant intelligence to do so. It was the randomized and unplanned intelligence, which pushed us to the brink of a chaos, as the mechanism had an inherent design for it. New spiritualism is about understanding these forces of randomization and consciously introducing element of planning in the evolution that humanity shall design in future.

Now, we have the wisdom and understanding to rise above this inherent mechanism and introduce a non-dualistic consciousness to this mechanism so that what we now create and ascribe for our growth and evolution has perfect planning and singularly measurable and provable basis to it and which leads humanity to a certain and sure excellence. We are beyond survival issues; we now have to be in control of the mechanism as well as the randomized energy of evolution to be what essentially ‘God’s Design’ was.

The God Within

Since time immemorial, inquisitive people with questions in their hearts spent huge amount of time and energy to find what is good, ideal and desirable for all humans and for all times to come.

So much has been written and more than that remains to be realized through unwritten traditions and wisdom ingrained in the original nature. Through the ages and in different stages of human knowledge and civilizations, to some great people were revealed the ‘unknowable’, which was deemed as the ultimate wisdom that cannot be known but only be realized.

However, for the benefit of humanity to come, they created some ‘Beej Gyaan’ (seed words) which is just a word or a set of words written in some mantra format. These are important metaphors and symbols for humanity to decipher and understand. All such seed words reveal ‘one thing’. Wisdom is singular and that is why the notion of God is also singular.

One such all-encompassing and ultimate seed word
