Last nite, I heard a talk by Chopra and he said that every thing is energy. Practically, everything on earth, that is, including the Mother Earth. Today, I was told by boss, that everything is energy. This is quite difficult to understand. Energy is shapeless and formless and yet, those tangible things is also energy.
The basic concept is that all the atoms and protons are adhere together with a life force and that life force is energy. If you take away the energy, all the atoms will fall apart and it will back to the shapeless and formless status. The same thing is true for human beings or animals, if the life force is gone, it will be ashes to ashes and dust to dust. This is very real and true. When we die, the life force or energy leave our body and we dis-integrate by rotting and if we are cremated, it will be left with only dust and ashes.
In Buddhism, the energy or life force returns to its core and re-generate on re-birth. It is so plain and simple and yet, we live with so much expectations , constraints and emotions. It is from lifeless to life and back to lifeless, just like a passenger jumping into a train from one destination to another destination. The short passage from one station to another station is our life period during the journey. Plain and simple.
My adopted Guru, Ajahn Brahm said that life is like entering a stadium for a live concert and you enjoy yourself thoroughly and when it ends, you left the station and you have actually complete your life. If you adopt this philosophy, you will achieve contentment, peace and eternal bliss.
Well, remember life is only make up of energy which is shapeless and formless. You are here only temporary and you can be gone anytime. So enjoy your weekend and this is another TGF.
Namaste.
