Triad (3)

“Do, Speak, Think”


The triad of human expression of doing, speaking and thinking is in nature and a human is a part of nature and is in the moment where nature is. Nature also contains vegetation, animals and the weather in every moment.

The doings of a married couple is an expression of nature in life. The doings of a married couple is a personal journey that expresses in marriage that life, as nature, gifts to humans. The gifts of doing by nature is an opportunity for the married couple to realise who they really are.

The speaking of a married couple is an expression of nature in life. The speaking between a married couple is a personal journey that expresses in marriage that life, as nature, gifts to humans. The gifts of speaking by nature is an opportunity for the married couple to realise who they really are.

The thinking of a married couple is an expression of nature in life. The thinking between a married couple is a personal journey that expresses in marriage that life, as nature, gifts to humans. The gifts of thinking by nature is an opportunity for the married couple to realise who they really are.

If the doing of the married couple, which is one of the triad gifted by nature to the married couple, is believed by humans that they do the doing by themselves, the opportunity to realise who they really are is lost.

If the speaking between a married couple, which is one of the triad gifted by nature to the married couple, is believed by humans that they do the speaking by themselves, the opportunity to realise who they really are is lost.

If the thinking by the married couple, which is one of the triad gifted by nature to man, is believed by humans that they do the thinking by themselves, the opportunity to realise who they really are is lost.

Only humans can understand the expression of senses and touch embedded within it. Animals live the expression of the triad by nature instinctively. Animals do not know the expression of nature in them.

By the expression of doing expressed by nature in the married couple, touch is embedded in whatever the doing is. The doing may be sitting, running, walking, sleeping, cooking and whatever the daily doing is.

By the expression of thinking expressed by nature in the married couple, thoughts touch the married couple in whatever thinking nature expresses in them. 

By the expression of speaking expressed by nature in the married couple, the upper and lower lips of the individual speaker touch each other in the expression of speaking.

The enlightened live the expression of triad with touch in them and do not describe them. The enlightened are aware of the triad expressions of life and realise that they do not do the triad by themselves.

The enlightened are aware that the triad happens in every step of the journey in life by nature and not by humans.

Editor’s note:
Man, in his or her lifetime, has invested and continues to invest considerable energy in excelling or endeavouring to excel in doing, thinking and speaking. Fame and fortune are to be the rewards or at least pride in accomplishment. Man, nevertheless, as with all animate existence, is in the evolutionary stage of nature within each moment, like it or not. There is no other play. In his or her stage of the process, man may come to understand that this is so and thus realise who he or she really is. Those for whom enlightenment has happened, in their compassion, are gifting the eternal light of self-realisation to mankind. Gratitude overflows.

German Translator‘s Note: 
In this article, Dr. Shankar's detailed thought tour takes us through all the expressions of nature in thinking, speaking and doing in the daily life of a married couple. Only through detailed visualization in all aspects of daily life, the conditioning of the human mind is slowly, step by step, replaced by wisdom. The illusions of life are revealed in this article as a coherent phenomenon in which there is not a bit of room for a real, independently doing, speaking and thinking ego in a marriage relationship. Thinking, speaking and doing in any marriage happen with constant involvement of touch as an uncontrollable play of light and sound. Being aware of this in every moment of married life, day and night, spontaneously enables an intimate relationship full of closeness and touch in every moment. The awareness of the ongoing connection with one's own nature overcomes any conflict that may arise through the illusion of words.
