In this chaotic life, we all need strength. For some it comes from people, money, happiness and for some, it comes from freedom and so on. What if it all goes away someday? To be honest with you, that may happen. The probability is still there, let’s be factual. For some, it is my philosophy but I’m just being factual. Let’s cut the bullshit for the time being.
The question
now is, is strength relative to all these things? Is strength relative at all? Because
if it is relative then we are lost or we will be. And to explore all that we
must first understand what it means by strength. And here I’m more concerned
with mental strength rather than physical strength. Physical strength must be
there to survive, to act, and to function properly.
What is strength,
my friend?
This is not
just a question for me but also you. Whatever I’m going to convey must be
realized on a deeper level otherwise there’s no point reading this.
On a mental
level, is it not the ability to think understand and work properly? Is it not
the energy that can flow without any resistance? Is it not something that can’t
be cultivated but experienced as a force?
Cultivation
of it may be possible but we have kept all things aside for the time being.
Right? And we are talking about absolute strength here.
It’s a
force. It’s a force that is not dependent on anybody or anything. It’s a force
that drives you. It’s a force that has the power to create something. It’s a
force of nature, of the universe.
But here, One
must be very clear that this must not be an idea and if it is an idea, we miss
the whole point of understanding, of knowing it. So there must be a jump to
this field of strength that must take place for us to realize it.
The question
then is: How does this strength come into being?
We’ve come
to this point where we want absolute strength. Absolute by its very nature, is
not dependent on anything. That means, there’s no one for you that you can look
after for strength. If that is depressing for you then that depression must be
overcome. Which means that it must be understood. The cause of this depression
is that you are being dependent on somebody else/ something else. That’s the
only reason. If you remove others from the equation, then you are alone with
whatever you have. And you must then deal with it by yourself. The dealing itself
is the part of the strength and then the face of it could be exposed to you.
What you
are going to do if you understand that nobody or a thing is there to give you
strength?
What would you
do?
What would
be your answer?
Think about
it for some time or if are really serious one, think about it for your lifetime
until you figure out the answer.
The first
thing is that you must realize that no one can give you that kind of strength. First,
they don’t have one. They are still seeking this. Second, they can’t give you that
strength even if they have it. I’m not sure if you are seeing this. But you
must see it. Understanding it is essential for you to step forward.
Now, you
are alone. You are lost. You are with yourself.
Now what?
How would
you proceed from there? You are with your life. And this is much more serious
than everything.
In that
aloneness, there comes a strength that gives you the force to act.
In that
aloneness, if you are not at all moving from there, comes understanding and knowingness
of something that can’t be touched by your thoughts.
That strength
comes into being when you become so quiet. When that strength flows through you.
There comes bliss and ecstasy of being lost.
