Chapter 03 - Life process (The design!) |

This is where we have to obey the command. This is where we have to prove ourselves. This is where we have to exhibit `trust in the Source and confidence in the self' with single focus. Life = Sum of (moments). Therefore, every moment is the test ground. Do we handle every moment from a point of `what we are'? Do we live every moment from a point of `what we are'? Do we prove? Do we pass? Or Do we handle every moment from a point of `what we are not'? Do we live every moment from a point of `what we are not'? Do we disprove? Do we fail? To prove, therefore, we have to reach a phase where, we are = `what we are' + `what we are not'. Thus life has two phases:`readiness' phase and `prove' phase. In the `readiness' phase we move away from `what we are', establish ourselves with `what we are not' and in the end understand our construct. In the `prove' phase we try to prove `what we are'. Life, then, by design, is `lose and regain' or `make and break', with the following stages: 1. Stage wherein we are `what we are'. 2. Stage wherein we lose what we are and make our identity with `what we are not'. 3. Stage wherein the suffering makes us know that we are not what we are. 4. Stage wherein we break our identity with `what we are not' and regain `what we are'. The stages 1, 2, and 3 belong to `readiness' phase and stage 4 belongs to `prove' phase. We have to undergo all the four stages of life. How long we spend at each stage, however, differs. I know my life process. © Dinakar Nayak |
