Living in Our Own Illusions

Ties into this whole Buddhist notion that “there’s only one of us here”. There’s only God knowing thyself through “us” via consciousness – from a human perspective – “mind games”. LOL. That’s why the universe is also referred to as the great cosmic joke. Lila certainly is DIVINE. 😀

The Sufi Map of the Seven Valleys

Osho’s allegory of  Sufi Mystic Al-Ghazzali’s 7 Valleys. It’s about man’s journey of finding oneself and

understanding the paradox of the human condition. Enjoy this masterpiece of story telling.

MAN is a paradox. And man is the only animal, the only being, that is paradoxical – that is man’s

uniqueness. Man’s special being is his innermost paradox. All other animals are non-paradoxical.

A tree is a tree, and a dog is a dog, but man is never in a state of isness. He is always becoming,

growing. Man is always surpassing himself; that is his paradox. And it is at his very core of being.

It is not accidental, it is very fundamental. Once you understand this paradox you have your first

glimpse about human-ness – what man is.

Man is always a project, a becoming. His being consists of becoming – this is the paradox. He is

always between that which he was and that which he is going to be. He is always between his past

and future – a bridge hanging between two eternities, the past and the future. He is a surpassing, a

continuous surpassing. Man is never content with that which he is; he is trying to go beyond, always

trying to go beyond. Whatsoever he is doing, all his effort is basically how to become something

more, something higher, something better.

Man is a progress, a wayfarer, a pilgrim – and his life is a pilgrimage, a non-ending pilgrimage, that

goes on and on. A dog is born, a tree is born…. The tree is born with all its tree-ness and the dog is

born with all its dog-ness. Man is not a given fact; man is born only with a possibility, with a potential.

Man is born as a blank, as a nothingness; nothing is written.

All other beings have a certain essence, a certain soul. In man it is just the reverse. His existence

comes first and then he starts seeking for his essence. In other animals essence comes first, then

existence. They already bring a built-in programme; they never grow, they remain the same. That’s

why they look so innocent, so unworried, so non-tense. Look into the eyes of a cow – how peaceful,

calm, tranquil she is. There is no anxiety no anguish, no clouds. Look into the eyes of a man. They

are always cloudy. They always have anguish, there is always trembling: the trembling of. ’Whether

I am going to make it or not?’ – the trembling of, ’Whether I will be able to find myself or not?’ – the

trembling of, ’Whether I will be fulfilled or remain unfulfilled?’

Why are there so many PROBLEMS in the World today…YOU ARE THE WORLD!

“You are the world… without you, there is no world. You must understand the
whole of life, not just one little part of it. That is why you must read, that is why
you must look at the skies, that is why you must sing and dance, and write poems
and suffer and understand, for all that is life.” — Jiddu Krishnamurti
This is one way of understanding the statement: that the individual is the only
reality. And the world is nothing but the collectivity of individuals, so whatever it
is, it is a contribution of individuals. If it is ugly, you have contributed to its
ugliness. If it is full of hate, jealousy, anger, greed, ambition, you have contributed
to this whole hell in which we are living. You cannot throw the responsibility on
somebody else; you have to accept the responsibility on your own shoulders.

J. Krishnamurti’s statement that “You are the world” simply emphasizes the fact
that every individual, wherever he is, whatever he is, should accept the
responsibility of creating this world that exists around us. If it is insane, you have
contributed to that insanity in your own way. If it is sick, you are also a partner in
making it sick. And the emphasis is important – because unless you understand
that “I am also responsible for this miserable and insane world,” there is no
possibility of change. Who is going to change? Everybody thinks somebody else
is responsible.
