Compare your life to
the Giza pyramids
Compare what one seeks
in the pyramids and what one seeks in his/her life
If you see the pictures of the Giza pyramids you
will see a rough outer stone surface because the smooth outer casing stones
were later removed and used to build mosques and fortresses, also some stones
were used to rebuild homes after a massive earthquake, hence some people look
at the pyramids (and life) only as a means of survival
While some are only interested in the hidden artefacts/
treasures and gold in the pyramids, they ruthlessly plunder the pyramids just
to find the hidden treasures; they don’t even realize that the structures they
are destroying while pursuing their greed are priceless and the present day
humans can never built them, similarly the aim of most people is to make money
in life, they do not realize the purpose of their existence (you may refer to
the first paragraph in the part 1 of this series)
Most
have wasted their life chasing wealth and fulfilling their carnal needs
I
quote some beautiful words from the classic book mother by maxim gorky---“the
rich. And that’s their misfortune. You see, if you keep adding copper bit by bit
to a child’s food, you prevent the growth of its bones, and he’ll be a dwarf;
and if from his youth up you poison a man with gold, you deaden his soul”
But the one who seeks the deep mysteries and
knowledge inside the pyramids, one day he comes to know about life and his
existence on earth such a rare soul has indeed sought the greatest treasure
which is knowledge
In the series on death, part2, I have written that “No mummies were ever found inside the
pyramids of Giza. The great pyramids of Giza were built for some other higher
purpose” and the truly wise indeed pursue to find that higher purpose
Look at this picture, see
the sphinx and reflect on it; half human half animal and behind it lies the
Pyramid—mankind’s true treasure
An
unknown and lost Avesta prayer (zoroastrian religion) reads:
“He has gained nothing
who has not gained the soul;
He shall gain nothing
who shall not gain the soul.”
Let your existence be fulfilled and Let us not live
in vain
Let us understand that man has not come up from an ape,
but has came down from God
Let us understand the fall of man from his original
spiritual station a pilgrimage in time---we have gathered spoils of eternity---the
history of Atlantis is the history of every man so intimately associated with
the history of fall
In the days of universal materialism people who
once believed in the soul, forgot the power of the soul, they earned penny and
forgot about all the true wealth, indeed the present day education has weakened
the basis of religion
The people,only after reaching the heights of
worldly pleasure the realisation has dawned on them that the very pursuit of
pleasure has created a void in their lives, an emptiness in the very Self.
In the movie Asoka (the story of the great king Ashoka),
there is a scene where the hero of the movie ask a passing monk, “kya me samrat
banunga (tell me, will I become an emperor)” the reply of the monk is indeed
the essence of one’s life “samrat to koi bhi ban sakta hai; tum to apni yatra puri
karoge (any one can become an emperor; you will complete your life’s journey {pilgrimage})
---this conversation tells us about the pilgrimage called life

A thought
Our entire solar system is designed to harbour
intelligent life forms on Earth:
The diameter of the sun is about 108 times that of
the diameter of Earth--The average distance between the Earth and the Sun is
108 times the sun’s diameter--The average distance from the Earth to the Moon
is about 108 times the moons diameter--This makes it so the moon appears the
same size as the sun during eclipses
Our world orbits the sun at just the right distance
— not too hot, not too cold. This habitable zone is where water can exist in
liquid form — a basic requirement for life.
The gravity on Earth and our magnetic shield are
just right for life forms to survive, and so on
Reflecting on our behaviour—the things we read, the
internet sites we browse, the conversations we carry out—does it suit our title
of an intelligent life form and the complex mechanism behind creating it

The purpose of a
writer is to keep civilization from destroying itself.
Albert Camus
I have lived on the
lip of insanity,
Wanting to know
reasons,
Knocking on a door.
It opens.
I've been knocking
from the inside!
