Conversation (3)

“Harmony or Discord”


Harmony is present when agreement is evident during conversation in any situation. Discord is present when disagreement is evident during conversation in any conversation.

The precision in writing is an expression of precision in life, the precision in reading is an expression of precision in life, the precision in conversation is an expression of precision in life because wisdom reveals that in between a moment in the mind and in life is moment as well. This signifies that a moment in life and in the mind is eternal.

Brain scans reveal that decisions happen seven seconds before man decides. The scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences reveal that human decisions are made seconds before humans become aware of them. In the study, participants could freely decide if they wanted to press a button with their right hand or left hand. The only condition was that they had to remember when they made the decision to use either their right hand or left hand. 

Using FMRI, researchers scanned the brains of the participants to find out if they could predict which hand the participants would use before participants were consciously aware of the decision. 

The results, by monitoring the micro patterns of activity in the front-polar cortex, were that the researchers could predict which hand the participant would choose seven seconds before the participant was aware of the decision. 

Wisdom reveals that this is proof that man neither decides nor predicts nor predetermines. Wisdom reveals that even the movement of the hand to press the button happens and the brain does not make the movement happen in the moment. 

Wisdom further reveals that the known and the knowing happen for understanding to happen that only moving is in every moment and that every moment is only moving. Also, for wise understanding to happen that moving in every moment is instinct and instinct cannot be learnt by man or his brain.

Conversation happens for understanding to happen that conversation is not an actuality in a moment. Conversation happens for understanding to happen that conversation is illusory and not real. Conversation happens for understanding to happen that conversation is not present in the moment, but only moving is present.

The moving happens for understanding to happen that, when the moving is accepted as conversation, it is believed that man and woman can converse the way he or she is expected to converse. 

Wisdom also reveals that the intelligence in life manifests the moving and man or woman does not make the moving in the moment happen. This is because they do not make the moment in life.

The enlightened accept the way man or woman converses and do not expect them to converse in any particular way, because they understand that conversation is not present, but only moving is present in any moment in life. The enlightened proclaim that man or woman will converse the way he or she is meant to converse, albeit illusory.

Life is a mystery, yet there are no faults, no mistakes, no accidents in any conversation. Conversation in life is as it is meant to be. Understanding this is the balm for a mind conditioned to criticise, for a mind that does not experience contentment in any conversation.

Sri Ramana Maharishi has declared that what is meant to happen, albeit illusory, will happen. Sri Adi Shankaracharya has declared that man is not the doer in Nirvanashadakam. Kenopanishad verse (1.3) declares that word and mind cannot access the Absolute One. Bhagwat Gita chapter 3 verse 27 declares that man is not the doer. 

The enlightened understand that the moving is instinct in any moment and is manifested by the intelligence in life and is done neither by man nor by his brain. The enlightened have declared that life is a singular movement.

Editor’s Note:
This is a beautiful flow of words, albeit a beautiful illusion. It has been written with precision, it is being read with precision. It has a beautiful energy whose source can never be known. Notwithstanding beauty nor even ugliness, whatever is seen or experienced is the wonder of illusion. It appears by grace of the intelligence of life. Few and fortunate are those who are free from stress in their lives. The deep understanding of the wise, that is gifted here and elsewhere, is food for the hunger of humanity that does not find rest.
