A search for excellence

It is actually a catchy tune and it has remained in my head and pricking it all the time for me to express this message.  If you are able to read, you should read and if you have the ability to write, you should write. If you do not use this gift, it is a sin as there are millions who do not have the chance to read and to write. Writing compliments reading and reading inspire writing. It is a perfect formula.

It has been found that human being used as less as 3% of their brain and for some intelligent ones, they could reach 5% and if you use 10% of your brain, you will be among the top few in the world.  If you are able to maximize and use 100% , you will be a super human being and will be god-like. It is believe that human being is created in the image of GOD but with a lesser brain power.  It is full of fun as people have different level of intelligence and preference , otherwise, we will be GOD among "GODs". It will be very boring and make existence meaningless.  It is not a perfect world and we are among imperfect beings and this is a fact that we have to accept.

Side track a bit, when we talk about GOD and where about is GOD, we point our finger towards the sky. But, Guru Maharaji said that GOD is within us and he points towards the heart. So, GOD is the Almighty sitting up high in the sky or it is within us. My belief is that it is within us and the quest for "GODness" is inwards and we have to search from within.

By reading, researching and meditating , we will build up our brain power and try to increase the percentage of self realization and awareness. If we move up the rank of intelligence, we will see more clearly and vividly and we will realized the purpose of living and how to manage its existence.  I believe this is what happen to Buddha.  He search for wisdom after he had seen  so much suffering in his world , he sort out teachers and he seek ways  to increase his intelligence and realization. Finally, he found the way to realize himself  and achieved enlightenment.

There are so many good speakers and Gurus around and some are born with the gift and some are born with a quest to seek and realize. Is it better to live dumb or live intelligently or in the middle. This is a patch for every individual to choose. Probably, ignorance is bliss but for some, the quest for realization is bliss. Nothing is absolutely right. One man's poison is another man's meat. So, live well and take responsibility for the patch you have chosen.

Namaste.
