“After all, what can a first impression tell us about someone we’ve just met for a minute in the lobby of a hotel? For that matter, what can a first impression tell us about anyone? Why, no more than a chord can tell us about Beethoven, or a brushstroke about Botticelli. By their very nature, human beings are so capricious, so complex, so delightfully contradictory, that they deserve not only our consideration, but our reconsideration—and our unwavering determination to withhold our opinion until we have engaged with them in every possible setting at every possible hour.”― Amor Towles, A Gentleman in Moscow

Our Original State of Being |
|
If we reflect upon our lives, it is possible to discover that we were each formed by the multitude of emotions, ideas, and thoughts in our minds, and yet this all took place without us ever having been conscious of the basic essence of the mind itself. The mind’s “basic essence,” which is another way of saying hsing, refers to what the mind was before it became tethered to conditions or yoked to this or that object or phenomenon. To find the way back to this uncontrived, primeval state is—to use the terminology of Chan Buddhism—to find one’s “original face.” This is to lay eyes upon hsing, our original state of being.

Most people do not really want freedom, because freedom
involves responsibility, and most people are frightened of
responsibility.

Fear and anxiety are protective mechanisms that evolved to
prevent us from getting into potentially dangerous situations,
and to help us escape from them should they befall us
regardless. They evolved, essentially, to preserve us from
danger, and, especially, from death. Think of a lion emerging
from the savannah, and of the fight-or-flight response that
such a sight would have sparked in our ancestors. Or think of
the most common phobias, which are all for natural dangers
like spiders, snakes, and heights—even though today cars
and electric cables are far more likely to be the end of us. But
today, especially at your age, what we most fear is not literal,
biological death, but figurative or existential death, the death
of our self-construct, of our ego. An interview is an existential
turning point in our life—it is, in a sense, a flash of freedom—
wherefore the anxiety that you’re feeling.

MULTI STAGE MULTIVERSE
universes are not simultaneously created or destroyed. Different universes are at different stages of evolution or devolution. My logic for this is that Kṛṣṇa’s līlā is nitya, so some universes must always be manifest, for His bhauma-līlā to be nitya. If all universes were dissolved, then His bhauma-līlā could not be nitya. Creation, sustenance, and dissolution are also His līlā. So, they must go on simultaneously all the time.
