Karma and Crime comes from same roots!
copyright Suresh Gundappa 2008.
It is interesting to note that word Karma has been borrowed from east and has been used extensively across the west. Although in it’s core meaning Karma denotes nothing but Newton’s third law I.e For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. please note that in Quantum physics only thought creates Action, not awareness.
Karma means act committed in lack of awareness. Typical acts of un-conscious mind stems from emotions like anger, greed, Jealous, ego. Anything you do out of mind and Unawareness continues to have reaction. The reason reaction happens is because event footprint remains in your mind. For example you carry anger about a friend or parents with you for a long time and lot of your actions are result of such an anger inside you. In other words Karma originates from thoughts ingrained in your system as a result of your un-mindful action.
However anything acted out of awareness, does’t leave foot print. Becasue awareness means you are so total in this moment there is no past or future for such a moment. Very rarely you carry it within you.
It Ancient wisdom, Crime is nothing but act you committed out of your mind on which you had no control.
The only crime is you can commit is Unawareness. Material manifestation of unawareness is reflected in events like robbery, murder, rape etc. so if you look at the basic reason for crime it is unconscious mind.
And only way to wash your Karma is Awareness. This is what the the meaning of Adam eating apple of Knowledge. It is nothing but Apple of Un-awareness. Eden is still open and available , you can go back any moment. All you need is awareness
Next time you think of Karma, think of Awareness
Meditation is art of washing away your karma. Meditation is when you stop generating Karma and start living moment to moment.

Man is the only seed who can turn into ugly flower!

Just take a look at Nature! it has never happened before! it has never happened that one of the nature’s most beautiful creation has trouble in blooming!
In nature Rose flower seed yields blooms into Rose!, Lotus seed blossoms into beautiful Lotus flower. every potential seed becomes it’s destined flower.
Look at Man!
In essential Man is nothing but a Buddha, a Jesus, a Mohammad.
But he can bloom into Hitler, Osama, Saddam,
your misery in life is nothing but you longing to bloom into a flower,
Your pain in life is nothing but unknown calling of awareness,
It does’t matter how succesful you are going to be in terms of Materialstic goals, platonic relationships,
you still need inner Romance,
Inner lover affair,
you are butterfly in need of metamorphosis,
Till then you remain a seed unfulfilled your potential,
Essentially, you are a Buddha. In the seed you are a Buddha, a Jesus, a Mohammad but in the seed you are imprisoned. Let the seed be broken, let it be shattered into the soil so that roses can start growing within you. A man of consciousness becomes a garden of roses. One of the ancient tarot card on courage says as follows.
Nothing can be guaranteed. Thousand and one are the hazards of the journey, many are the pitfalls - and the seed is secure, hidden inside a hard core. But the seed tries, it makes an effort; it drops the hard shell which is its security, it starts moving. Immediately the fight starts: the struggle with the soil, with the stones, with the rocks. And the seed was very hard and the sprout will be very, very soft and dangers will be many.
There was no danger for the seed, the seed could have survived for millennia, but for the sprout many are the dangers. But the sprout starts towards the unknown, towards the sun, towards the source of light, not knowing where, not knowing why. Great is the cross to be carried, but a dream possesses the seed and the seed moves.
The same is the path for man. It is arduous. Much courage will be needed
you need to gather courage, and this courage means disappearing into the soil, losing yourself in complete let-go. Losing ego , losing thought occupied mind.
Meditation is nothing gardening your potential. Meditation is nothing but creating a ecosystem to realize your potential.

When you are silent your potential speaks to you!

when you are silent your potential speaks to you. whispers to you. And those whisperings are absolutely categorical-no if’s and buts. The heart knows nothing of if and buts. it simply says this is your destiny. Become a painter or a poet or a sculptor or a dancer or a musician. It simply says this is how you will be full filled.
it starts directing you.
the function of Mediation is to help you to make silent so that you can hear your own whisperings, you own inner calling, Then your life starts moving towards inner discipline.
Meditation is nothing but helping you discover your insight. then you are free, then you move towards freedom.
Don’t die with music in your heart, Take risks and jump. to take risks you need to know how to listen to heart. listening to heart is art called meditation. Unless you take risks you will never know your potential.
Love
Suresh
