Habitual Hero: The Art Of Winning by Santosh Jha (which ebook reader TXT) 📖

One can come close to being objective only when it is able to unravel and arrive at a ‘super consciousness’ which is definitively poised between the cultural consciousness and instinctive consciousness.

As we have earlier talked, this singularity of duality is revealed to humanity only after long and persevered practice. This super consciousness is achievable only when an individual starts practicing the art from childhood as later, when the cultural consciousness enters the ‘psychotic’ stage, the reversal to the ‘poise’ position of consciousness is almost impossible.

The psychotic mind is like cement which when turns concrete, cannot be shaped in any other form. Psychosis kills the plasticity of human mind. The earth is gradually being housed by growing number of ‘psychotic’ minds and many of these minds are landing in spaces outside the mainstream society.

Though it is a tough task, if one could get the global data on number of people entering either a hospital, jail, asylum, rehabilitation centers, dubious religious groups, extremist and terrorist groups, or so called Gurus-Babas-Healers-Mystiques etc, it would be apparent that in the last 20 years, the numbers have swelled many times.

This does not include those millions of ‘socially successful’ people, stars, icons, whose ‘psychosis’ itself becomes the rage, fashion, cult, pop culture and even way of life for millions of what is popularly termed as ‘fans’ and ‘followers’. Add to it the millions whose successes in social sphere covers up their ‘psychosis’.

It seems, majority of these millions of minds are beyond redemption, as they would surely and safely call such a person debauch and ‘real psychotic’, who shows them a mirror. The psychosis creates a subjective world for the person and he or she is constantly fed by his or her subconscious mind’s assurances that what they see and accept is the ‘real and actual’ and what others tell them is a big trash.

Most psychotic persons would always say, ‘I blindly follow my heart (or soul)’. Or they would say, ‘My instincts and intuition always leads me to right decisions and I blindly follow them’. The psychotic mind has already lost the consciousness to objectively see and accept that what they believe as their soul-voice and intuition may actually be the voices of their smart, socially successful and ingenious ‘cultural mind’.

The psychosis makes them blind and they think they are happy being blind. The cultural mind feeds them eulogies of the ‘virtues of blindness’. They happily follow it.

The human compassion is divinity demystified. It is the simplest, the best and most easily and prolifically available energy on earth. The compassion would always believe in larger and general wellness of humanity and would work for it but even compassion is subject to value summation by the subjective mind consciousness.

It is simple yet tough to accept. God and divinity is everywhere and in everything. Yet, loads of ungodly and un-divine things are making lives of humanity a hell. Why? It is simple. The almighty is nothing but a hugely beautiful metaphor of a brilliant mechanism that is the cosmic realism. The brilliant mechanism has given every creature a mega-specialist facilitator called mind.

Humans have the best-evolved design. If humans cannot make use of this brilliant design well, God and divinity cannot do anything. Like human compassion, divinity is also blocked by the minds. A mind, which has blocked divinity, searches for it everywhere but finds only nothingness.

The cardinal question is, ‘is there no way for compassion to help?’ The simple answer is, ‘Possibility or impossibility is not at the side of compassion, it is rather with receiver’. The rules of renaissance and resurrection is simple, ‘the end is the start of an end’. The end of the psychotic consciousness with the help of compassion ‘within’ one’s mind and soul’ is the initiation of the journey towards a poised mind consciousness.

The consciousness is like a wave. Waves rise up and lift up the ego and culturally subjective mind consciousness to a level where it automatically falls owing to its own weight of utility and fruition. The wave then falls to merge into the ocean of realism. The wave rises again. This is the chance for resurrection. The fortunate would avail it.

Those With Humility Shall Arrive

Almost everyone would say he or she wants to enjoy life in its fullness and completeness. Some truly conscious minds would also add that life’s fullness is not for enjoyment only but also beckons for individual justice to every facet and aspect of life.

Life for all of us is truly multidimensional and a true person should sincerely align his self and personality in such a way that it could help him or her accept, enjoy and do justice to the myriad colors and shades of life’s multidimensionality.

This can happen if our consciousness works very humbly and honestly towards ‘poise’, a balance between every single dimension of life. Everything, big or small about the fullness of life is meaningful and significant for the growth of our conscious from a dualistic position towards a non-dualistic one. We all need to be open to life’s fullness and multidimensionality and be brave enough to accept all dimensions as equally important.

The best and most courageous of our endeavors must be assigned to the multidimensionality of approaches and wisdoms for arriving at the diverse realism. There are different roads to one destination and until you get to know about all of them, you cannot be in a position to arrive at the best and most profitable road to the destination. This is the process of growth from dualism to non-dualism.

Generally, we are very hypocritical about life’s holism and multidimensionality. We see life’s fullness and variety yet get singularly narcissistic about our ‘preferred’ route. This is again a cultural mind, which does have such a preference. An evolved mind and a non-dualistic consciousness would accept with openness and courage all possible routes to wisdom and realism.

Moreover, as we accept this multidimensionality, we all shall reach a destination where it would be revealed to us that, the essence and core idea of all routes are the same. This is the non-dualism, which we all arrive at after going through the process of dualism in honest and humble way.

We all have been culturally trained to see and accept the traditional wisdom for looking at and answering all questions of life. We now have another facility - the contemporary knowledge of science. It adds wonderful perspective to our existing wisdom and truly helps us in integrating all wisdoms into one singular and non-dualistic perspective for looking at the realism around us.

There is reluctance to accept scientific answers to humanity’s primeval questions, as generally, we believe scientific answers are in competition and conflict with our age-old traditional wisdom. This is truly wrong. Actually, science just adds a new dimension by ascribing calculable and measurable processes to arrive at those answers which ancient and traditional wisdom of religion, philosophy, spiritualism, psychology and traditions have provided us.

For example, there has been a traditional wisdom that ‘those with thick skins are a bit dumb and far more instinctive’. Modern science just attempts to provide a measurable basis to this ‘possible’ fact.

Science has now established that specific proteins are responsible for construction of both skin as well as neurons from same tissues in embryo stage in humans. These proteins inhibit the activities of other proteins. In areas where no inhibition occurs, the tissue becomes skin. In areas where proteins do lead to inhibition, the tissue becomes neural. Science very rarely changes popular truths, it rather shows why and how and knowing it always broadens the horizon of wisdom and consciousness.

Now, those who are faith persons are free and at will to accept that this ‘protein-inhibition’ is done by God and is therefore why God makes different people with different abilities. Those who believe in procedural details would go deep into the mechanism of proteins in the human body. There is actually no conflict between different streams of human wisdom. It is just in our cultural mind. A ‘thick-skinned’ person is also human and equally useful as a ‘wise’ person with high intellect.

There is also a tendency among people to either accept things 100 percent or reject it 100 percent. Suppose, a child solves seven out of ten questions and gets 70 percent mark. We then never say he or she failed. He could not get all of them right on this particular exam but still got far more right than wrong.

May be, in next exam, as he or she matures in knowledge, he or she would score higher. However, what we do is, we reject science or religion out rightly and completely even if it answers many of the questions right but still does not answer all of them right. We say science has failed for me or the religion does not work for me.

It is all in our cultural mind. We all need to be trained in assimilation values and not in segregating competition. It has to be accepted that we all have perfect ease to accept traditional wisdom for all answers, as they are actually now part of our genetic pool. Also, we have been in this culture of accepting them since thousands of years.

Naturally, a new wisdom is prone to early and summary rejection at the first instance. Our wellness quotient gets off balance if we accept something new interpretation or basis for something which been for ages there comforting us beyond doubt.

It is tough for the cultured mind and that is why, it takes huge amount of courage to come out of our comfort zones and wellness inertia of segregation to see and accept the utility of a new idea or new wisdom as well as the old wisdom in an integrative and assimilative way. The initial discomfort would eventually lead us to a larger and stable comfort zone as we become truly knowledgeable. However, it takes time.

Then, there is also a huge hypocrisy, which we associate ourselves with when we do not open ourselves with new idea. The faith also does not have all answers. The religion, philosophy and psychology have never ever given us all answers of the process of ‘why’ and ‘how’ correctly. There is a particular way of this wisdom and we all accept it. Still, we reject all other ways, even when they are similar and approach the same truth in similar ways.

It needs openness of mind and courage for accepting relativity then only we all reach a stage where we can clearly see that essentially the essence of religion- spiritualism, philosophy and classical psychology is the same with science too. It is just because, the mechanism of the universe is the same. Whichever way we interpret the cosmic realism, it is not going to change.

The trouble with science is also the same as it is with other wisdom. The unpleasant question is, “who is truly religious?” One who prays all Gods and follows all rituals blindly or the one who studied all religious wisdoms scribbled in all ancient texts, understood and rationalized the social and personal values of all rituals and then compared them with modern knowledge to arrive at a integrated, assimilated and synthesized wisdom? The popular answer is the former. Science also has to be taken in totality for someone to be called truly scientific in mind.

Most people believe; faith is best practiced when it is accepted and followed blindly. They say, the moment you question faith or the moment you attempt to rationalize faith mechanisms, you lose the connection with God and divinity. No religious book has ever ascribed God and divinity with this popular idea and practice yet, most of us do it. It is the product of our dualistic and cultured mind.

It has to be understood. A biker rides blindfolded on his bike in popular stunts but he does it only when he has practiced on the same route with open eyes for so many times that he can do it instinctively with blindfold. Change his
