The Third eye

The Third eye

As we all know the two physical eyes are just sensory organs. Through which we see the world and perceive things as per our conditioning of our Minds. They feed the mind with all kinds of nonsense, because what you see is not the truth. The opening of the third eye means , you are aware of your Mind and its activities, thought/thinking as it happens. For me , the observer in you, which observes the thought as it arises in your mind is the ‘Third eye’. The opening of Third eye means that , you are  aware whats  going on your mind and can literally “see” what is going on your mind . People say that , if Shiva opens the Third eye the world is destroyed etc., What it means is that , if one is conscious and aware of one’s thought/thinking as it arises in the mind, it destroys the ignorance in you. That is the destruction of illusion. You are ‘Shiva’! Don’t believe that you are your Mind. This is delusion. Consciousness arises when you start watching the ‘Thinker in you’. When you start watching the thinker in you, all the chatter that goes on and on in your  Mind stops.

So when you listen to a thought, you are aware not only of the thought, but also of 

yourself as the witness of the thought. As you listen to the thought, you feel a conscious presence – your deeper self – behind or underneath the thought, as it were. The thought then loses its power over you and quickly subsides, because you no longer energizing the mind through identification with it. And this stillness of the Mind  is the beginning of the end of involuntary and compulsive thinking and the beginning of arising to your natural state of oneness with the universe.  

Homo sapiens!

Homo sapiens (Latin: "wise man")

Homo sapiens is the scientific name for us, humans , on the earth. It is a latin word, meaning – wise-man. Now the question is are we, the Homo sapiens- Human species , on this earth --- really “WISE”, in the true sense of the word.

In the Natural Habitat of our Planet , we, the homo sapiens , are the only species, that can use our intelligence,  consciousness, for development of self and for others.

But, to the credit  of our species is, We are the ‘sole species’ that can harm and kill other  members of our species. Even the most dangerous animals, need not fear of their own kind.  Have you seen any species, that kill the members of the same species? i.e., Tigers killing tigers, Deers killing deers, Parrots killing parrots, etc., In Nature, that does not happen. If at all it happens, its an exception.  Ofcourse, the few carnivorous animals devour other animals , only, for their food requirements.

We, the Homo sapiens , lost the capacity to live harmoniously with each other, may be due to our intelligence, even though we belong to the same species. We have built barriers between us and fight , in the name of Religion, Caste, Class, Race, Country and other 100s of reasons, and  hate each other, KILL each other. And people kill others in the name of a ‘cause’ or invent some divine or sacred causes for doing harm to fellow beings and other beings and justify the killings. This is most disgusting, horrible and sad. And we should stop calling our species as ‘wise’ or ‘intelligent’ than other species on this earth. We are the most ‘destructive’ and ‘dangerous’ species, ever inhabited, in our planet , and due to our Ignorance, going in the direction of destroying all the natural habitat of our  beautiful earth, which has given ‘LIFE’ and ultimately destroying ourselves, due to our GREED. – (“Yeh Dil Maange More”)
