TOTTY PARK PLUS X TATVAM ASI X SN CNMA OFFICER AND GENTLEMAN 1982










EK CHILTE MOON

//////////////////////////////////////////////TATVAM ASI

For most of us, independent, rational thinking and religion would be in conflict with each other.

What if religion itself was a product of free thought and rationale? This is true for all Hindu religions / philosophies ( Advaita Vedanta, Sankhya, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism etc.) Each of these religions stemmed from the freethinking culture of the Indian subcontinent and survived frequent "Sastarthas" (intellectual debates).

None of these religions are based on mere "faith" in a human being's assertions of him being a messenger of God or in a Holy scripture . Rather, each lists down acceptable knowledge-sources ("Pramanas" ). For example, the philosophy that most Hindus adhere to today (Advaita Vedanta/non-dualism) says one must accept knowledge only from 6 sources / Pramanas , in that order:

(Notably, 1st priority is to perception and LAST to oral or written words!!)

1.Pratyakṣa (प्रत्यक्षाय) – perception
2.Anumāṇa (अनुमान) – inference
3.Upamāṇa (उपमान) – comparison, analogy
4.Arthāpatti (अर्थापत्ति) – postulation, derivation from circumstances
5.Anupalabdi (अनुपलब्धि) – non-perception, negative/cognitive proof
6.Śabda (शब्द) – relying on word, testimony of past or present reliable experts incl. Texts

Bhagavat Gita, considered as the scripture that most aptly summarises the essence of Vedas explicitly says that one who recognises "Tattvam Asi" (Unity of microcosm and macrocosm) does not require even the Vedas!

What Is a Starseed and Why Are They Here?

starseedA Starseed is a human who exists on earth in the present. However, while a Starseed is definitely “human” by birth and DNA, their soul origins lie outside of the earth plane.

  • Starseeds are highly evolved souls whose soul origin is from the stars or the higher dimensional realms of existence.
  • Starseeds originated in star systems like the Pleiades, Sirius, Andromeda, and Lyra (and many, many more places throughout existence).
  • Starseeds are those souls with past life or parallel experiences in the higher dimensions who are remembering this link and truth in the physical.
  • They have come to earth with a very specific mission: to serve in the awakening of Gaia and humanity.
  • Starseeds are those humans who have awakened to remember their galactic, light, and higher vibrational origins and connections.

//////////////////Carl Sagan said “The Cosmos is within us. We are made of starstuff. The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars.”


/////////////////////Kierkegaard is my favourite philosopher. I can really relate to him, because suffering is my mission. My positive psychology is to understand the nature and the root cause of suffering so that I can reduce it or transform it to happiness. My self-claimed professional identity is father of the new science of suffering and wellbeing.
The historical Buddha meditated for 40 days/nights and he was enlightened regarding the problem of suffering. I've researched for 40 years, but I still have not found a clear scientific answer to suffering.
This morning as I prayed for an answer to the puzzle of not being able to get ethic clearance for my multinational study of coping with Covid19 when all my research partners have got theirs, I was surprised by an epiphony: I suddenly found myself enveloped by a strange sense of darkness, so thick, so dark, the like of which I had never experienced before.
I tried to name it or understand it. Instrinctively, I knew it was not anger and frustration, nor was it anxiety. It was SADDNESS. Not so much feeling sorry for myself, for my hard fate and all my misfortunes, but sorrowful for the dark side of human nature. Indeed, the darkest place in the world is the human heart according to Jeremiah 17:9:
"The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure.
Who can understand it?"
I felt overwhelmed by the horror and sorrow of not knowing how to understand the cruel logic of the human heart, how to penetrate a stone heart, or how to soften it and win it over with kindness and logic. It felt like not knowing how to communicate with a mad animal dressed in an academic gown. Is it possible to reason with another human being who hates you for no apparent reason?
As I finished my prayer, I decided to put this matter aside in order to preserve my sanity and let God do his work.
Yes, like Kierkegaad, and like Jesus, I am a man of sorrow; Like Apostle Paul, I consider it a privilege to know the fellowship of suffering so that I may know the power of resurrection and redemption
