Buddhist literatures and texts of the time have ample references of description of socio-cultural anarchy, which was prevalent in times of Buddha, which moved Buddha to embark on a path of âsamyak-vicharâ (poised thought). There are enough written texts available for all young men and women to read and learn from our history. If contemporary young men and women think and live in the perceptional world that what they are witnessing and practicing is something new, novel and contemporaneous to humanity, then they are away from facts and truths. It is just history ârepeating its stupiditiesâ. Their novelty is somehow only a few thousand years obsolete.
Somehow, the ancient Indian epic of Mahabharta and the embedded spiritual philosophy of Geeta in it are great texts of societal and cultural situations of the times that seem to be pre-dating Buddha. In Mahabharta also, which scientists date around 1400-1500 BC; there are vivid details of how âunbridled-sexualityâ and âirresponsible-liberalismâ had created a society and culture of âmad-consumptive-opulenceâ. In Geeta too, there is a very powerful description of a âdemographic theoryâ, where Krishna elaborates to Arjuna about situation of âunprincipled cultural traditionsâ in the then society that had resulted in wider chaos and unnecessary conflicts in society.
Geeta and Mahabharta must also be accepted as one huge âsocial scienceâ text. Similarly, Buddha must be accepted as probably the first âCognitive Science/Psychologyâ genius, who understood human drives, body-mind mechanism, human cognitive conundrum and consciousness conflicts. It is debatable whether he was the first but so many greats of past insisted on this need to see and understand the wired drives of body and mind and then rise above them through a persevered process of self-dialogue and self-actualization. Indian spiritual philosophy of Yoga is brilliant cognitive texts, detailing the causalities of human drives and milieus, which engender this stupidity of âBe Yourselfâ viscerality. They also list the way out.
Then around in 600-800 AD, India again witnessed the same situation. There was a spiritual-philosophical movement led by Shankra, who advocated a âpoised-lifeâ even when there was a contemporary populist philosophy by âCharvaksâ, which advocated this âunbridled-liberalismâ, based on âvisceral-intelligenceâ and so-called âBe Yourselfâ philosophy.
Many believe that this Charvak philosophy was also there in the times of Buddha. In fact, since the inception of human civilization and culture, two streams of life-living philosophy has always existed â
This wing of philosophy believed that life-living and humans have higher goals and they are different than what the innate body-mind mechanism tells usâŠ
The opposite philosophy accepted body as ultimate intelligence. It insisted that there was nothing called âhigher goalsâ of life or higher purpose of life and that is why, the body and mind is genius enough to see and accept that what body-mind tells and seeks is right and goodâŠ
Here, we have to see and accept something very critical. There is always this âcyclicalityâ in time-space domain. That is why history repeats itself. There is also this very well documented history of social sciences evolved between 15-17th century, which have well elaborated how human thoughts create socio-cultural conflicts. The dialectics, general will, social contract and Epicureanism ideas are there for all to see and understand.
Classical spiritualism has said it way back, social sciences documented it in modern era and now modern contemporary science in new millennium has been telling us that this cyclicality of human society is wired in our brain. That is why it has this cyclicality of repeating itself in time-space continuity. This we need to see, understand and accept â
Humans are born with core drives of 3Ps â Possession, Preservation and Perpetuation. Our drives give us kick of life, as they do to most creatures, being aligned with our bio-chemical system of hormones. Our drives have been installed by evolution to live a life of subconscious indulgence of 3Ps â Possession, Preservation and Perpetuation. The 3Ps shall always advocate âunbridled-pursuitsâ and any check on these 3Ps make us in fight-mode to secure them. This is visceral intelligence, wired deep in us.
However, thousands of years back, humanity chose to live in communities, leaving behind the life of wanderer-gatherer. In fact, evolution has also wired us for âtribe-livingâ as humans have sustained in community-living since thousands of years. We humans have gregarious gene. Scientists have clearly mentioned of humanâs social animal needs. This community or societal living requires some âreasonable restrictionsâ on our core drives. We all know this political philosophy, which says â âIndividualâs right to stretch his/her hands ends where the nose of other individual beginsâ. To be human is to have poise between âwantsâ of drives and social âneedsâ. Both are visceral and a wired realism for all of us; if stupidity is wired, so is intellect. The two powerful human needs always split all humans. That is why, this conflict and dualism creates a cyclicality in human history. This dualism is wired in all of us.
In contemporary societies, where life and living has become very complex, it is only natural that humans shall feel the pinch of poise in a hard way. If we see, understand and accept it, we all are wise and our societies are happy. It is primary wisdomâŠ!

Stupidity About Divinity And Religion
If you accept and allow the macrocosmic perspective to build on a hypothesis that singular objective truth and realism apart, whatever seems and presents itself for observation, is a registry and artistry of the hugely mystical marvels of brain, which unravels them through our mind consciousness. This hypothesis is not a figment of pure imagination; rather it is a primary acceptance of innocence of intelligence. This hypothesis is an initiation into the complexity of this multidimensional universe of mysticism, marvel and magic, which are now ensconced and embedded deep into our mind consciousnesses.
It is even accepted that these cultural ideas of mysticism, marvel and magic are now very much part of our instincts, our genetic wiring; the stupid design of evolution. This mysticism and marvel of mind consciousness of contemporary humans, engenders an âIâ, a sense of subjective self, which has now put the idea of divinity and registry of religion into an external domain. However, a few thousand years back and even beyond, this mind consciousness of early humans were not what it is today of we people. The early consciousness could see and accept that all ideas and dimensions of divinity were not external but deep within. This consciousness defined and accepted divinity not in a populist cultural way, as we accept it today. It was only natural that early consciousnesses of humanity, thousands of years back created such beautiful and insightful metaphors of divinity, which now stand as completely degenerated. It is tough to understand and accept those metaphors as contemporary mind consciousnesses have become highly cultured by degenerated notions of divinity.
We shall attempt to recreate the old consciousness here and this shall lead us to understand the internalized idea of divinity, where âGodâ is only within, experienced with such intensity of pure consciousness that it was somehow possible for a mind then; in ancient Indian milieus, to engender a metaphor of âI Am Godâ (aham bramhasmi).
When a mind consciousness, positioned in a state of poise of all tangible and intangible elements of being and cosmos expresses this idea of âI Am Godâ, it creates a marvelously precarious superposition of entities. This super consciousness, assimilating and identifying the âselfâ in complete linearity with the idea of divinity, has almost no choice to express its situationalism in any other set of words. This super consciousness, understands, accepts and internalizes the 3Ms â Mysticism-Marvel-Magic, with a perfectly novel perspective of 3Cs â Consciousness-Cognition-Causality.
The expression, âI Am Godâ, can be anything but never the narcissistic expression of an intelligent mind consciousness. Rather, it must be primarily accepted as the self-negating expression of an innocent mind consciousness, stretching the self beyond all signs and semblances of âselfâ. There is a need to unravel all possible aspect of this expression of âI Am Godâ, which is essentially the installation and registry of the idea of consciousness having the seeds of the causalities as well as the subsequent cognition of God or divinity in all senses.
At the very start, we need to accept a very natural and fruitful mechanism of mind consciousness, which shall help us in understanding, why the proposition, âI Am Godâ becomes a realism. You must have noticed; when you listen to your favorite music, you start with listening music, then your consciousness moves with the music and you feel like being part of the music and finally your consciousness merges with the music and you become music.
The best experience of this merger of identities â external and internal into singular identity happens in love. Be in love and you will see and experience the multidimensionality of all realisms around you â be it within self or in the milieus outside, merging into a singular consciousness. Be in love to experience the magic and then you yourself become The Magic. Deep within the body-mind intimacy and emotion of love, you shall cease to be an experiencer and turn to be experience itself. You start as being in love and then become love. Love happens and this merger happens â the experiencer becoming the experience. All pluralism, all dualism and all multidimensionality of consciousness and realisms merge into singular linearity. All âsomethingnessâ first enters the domain of ânothingnessâ and then finally it swims effortlessly in the ocean of everythingness.
The same and even far more spontaneous and lasting is the experience of the experiencer of divinity becoming the experience itself and in the state of such ultimate consciousness, where all somethingnesses become singular everythingness, the conscious self merges into the unity and linearity of cosmic consciousness. As this merger, dissolution and ultimate union ends up the segregation of external and internal realisms and people start feeling being the love or music itself, a consciousness in the domain of divinity also feels being divinity itself and what comes out as a light from the consciousness is put in humanly designed words as â âI Am Godâ. This however is difficult to happen, because in the case of divinity, there is a missing tangible of physicality of lover and music.
As we all know from our experiences, the mind consciousness does not speak in the language we humans designed for our social exchange of ideas. The experiences of mind consciousness and its expressions are not amenable to be put in human words. That is why, when someone says in exalted state of higher consciousness that he or she is the music, the love or the God, there has to be an innocent and compassionate acceptance that the words are just extremely poor shadow of the pure and primary imagery of the experience and expression in his or her mind consciousness.
Now, we need to understand that the purpose of the above metaphors of music and love was used to simply and facilitate the above hypothesis, we had accepted earlier. The hypothesis was â
âSingular objective truth and realism apart, whatever seems and presents itself for observation, is a registry and artistry of the hugely mystical marvels of brain, which unravels them through our mind consciousness.â
This hypothesis was necessary to arrive at the theoretical realism that
