The Secrets Of Destiny Page 2
Everything comes into being with a purpose
Yet another principle of ‘automation of destiny’ which you must understand is, everything inevitably comes into being for some purpose. Nothing comes into existence without a purpose. The sun has come into existence to light up the world, and water to quench thirst. Likewise, every human being comes into this world with some great purpose. And the purpose is absolutely clear. “Each human being has come to exist in this world to serve the larger interests of humanity.” But selfishness induced by wrong teachings lead them astray, and they in turn, digress from the path. And this is the major reason for such widespread failures and the distressed state of mankind. Hence, in order to improve your life, it is vital to be aware of both, the fatal forms of ‘selfish thinking’ and the venom spread by teachings which induce selfishness. It is a law that the more selfish you are, the more your life will be ruined.
Realising the purpose of life is an automatic process
Let us understand this with an example of mango trees. The sole purpose of a mango seed coming into existence is to blossom into a full grown mango tree; there is no other purpose of a mango seed to exist. And in order to realise this purpose, the mango seed does not need to do anything by itself. When the right kind of soil and the right amount of nutrition, water and light is received by the seed, it automatically blossoms into a full grown tree. The same is the case with human beings. He, who moves with the flow of destiny’s automation, invariably realises the purpose of his existence in this world while flowing in sync with the ‘automation of destiny’. He too receives the right nourishment, right amount of water and light, at the right time. In short, the realisation of the purpose of one’s existence, is in itself, an automatic process.
Why do we digress?
When it is clear that one must not act driven by selfish instincts, but keeping the larger interests of the entire mankind in mind, then the question that arises is, how and why does a man digress from his path? Well, the ultimate freedom that has been endowed upon a human being in the form of his ‘brain and ego’ is the major reason for this digression. Because being free, he has the freedom to search for his own nourishment, food, water and light, whereas a mango seed has to depend on Nature and its automation for the realisation of its purpose. And this is ‘what’ human beings need to learn. Though they have the freedom to search for their own ‘nourishment, water and light’, they are not supposed to use this freedom, as the responsibility of providing them with all these rests with Nature. And this is what everyone must understand. He, who grasps this simple truth, will rise above self-interest, and thereafter, he will automatically be taken care of, by the great ‘automation of destiny’.
Prevalent Ignorance
The real problem with human beings is that, except for the knowledge provided by a few supremely intelligent and wise beings, rest all knowledge, whether imparted in the name of organised religions or anything else, is against this supreme principle of destiny. The crux of all this ‘so-called’ knowledge which is delusional in nature is, “A man must choose his path himself.” In other words, he should think only of himself and his selfish interests…and this is fundamentally wrong. This is the reason why, in spite of a plethora of knowledge available to mankind since aeons, barely one in a million is able to become legendary. Unfortunately, those who impart this knowledge are not only exercising their freedom in sheer ignorance, but are also teaching the same thing to others without realising its grave consequences. And now this delusion is so deep-rooted in the human psyche that it is not easy for a human being to relinquish the freedom that he is endowed with. But know for certain, that he, who does not learn to surrender his freedom, will not be able to put his life on the path to becoming extraordinarily great. Here, you must also bear in mind as to who will be able to surrender his freedom; only he, whose sphere of concern is not limited to just himself or his loved ones.
Every human being has only two destinies
It is important that you understand that as per the law of ‘automation of destiny’, everything including humans have only two probable destinies. For example, a mango seed has only two probable destinies; one, it can bloom into a mango tree or two, get destroyed. Likewise, every human being has just two probable destinies; either he can realise the purpose of his life for which he has come into existence and lead a beautiful life, or two, get destroyed. There is no third destiny for anyone here. And who can achieve the purpose of his existence in the world? He, who flows with the ‘automation of destiny’. And who will be able to flow with the ‘automation of destiny’? He, who rises above his selfish interests and concerns himself with the betterment of ‘sarva’ i.e. one and all.
You cannot choose the purpose of your life
The problem is that human beings all around the world are bombarded with teachings to choose the purpose of their life. Whereas, in reality, the purpose of every individual’s existence in this world is automatically decided in due process by the ‘automation of destiny’. As proof, even if a mango seed desires or strives hard, it cannot become anything but a mango tree. Irrespective of the humongous efforts, religious offerings, worshipping or manoeuvring, it just cannot become a rose plant or any other plant for that matter. The same is in the case of human beings. A person who is meant to be a scientist can either become a scientist or destroy his life. No matter how hard he works, he just cannot become anything otherwise. This is the supreme law of destiny. And in order to build one’s life, everyone must follow this supreme law of destiny. In other words, one has no other option but to follow this principle.
Human Being The sole intelligent entity
In this entire existence, a human being is the only creature who is endowed with a brain. The brain gives him the power to make decisions, and this is where he gets trapped. With the help of his brain, he, on his own, attempts to decide what is good for him and what is bad. And to complicate the matter further, there are those ignoramuses in the world, who for ages have been listing numerous ‘dos and don'ts, ‘what is good and what is not’, which human beings construe as a guide to decide their acts and actions and base their decisions on. They fail to understand that nothing in Nature beside human beings is making such an effort. In Nature, impressed by the moon, the sun does not endeavour to become like the moon, nor does a mango tree impressed by a rose, attempt to become like a rose plant. Neither do they have knowledge available to indulge in such foolhardy, impossible acts. They neither have religion nor Gods, and they don’t need it either…To flow with automation, one does not need anything else. However, instigated by the prevalent ignorance and fallacious knowledge, human beings are constantly trying to influence each other, and in the bargain, they themselves are getting influenced. And amusingly, even their decision making process is impacted by such influences. They fail to comprehend that every decision taken by them is veering them farther from the supreme ‘automation of destiny’. Hence, bear this principle in mind, that only those, who instead of taking decisions themselves, are leaving it to the ‘automation of destiny’, are bestowed with a great, happy and successful life.
How to connect with destiny?
You must have grasped so far that the purpose of life, i.e. the purpose of coming into existence can’t be chosen; it is automatically decided by the automation in the due process of life. But, the question that arises here is, how to surrender oneself to the automation? Because, the habit of a self-serving life and taking decisions by oneself, has become ingrained in you. However, to connect with destiny, there are only two options available to humans.
A) Grow your faith in the mind
The first way for a person to connect himself with his destiny is, he should trust his mind more than his brain, as it is only the human mind which can connect you to the ‘automation of destiny’. However, even in order to grasp this, it is imperative to know the difference between the brain and the mind. Unfortunately, barely a few among millions are aware of their separate existence, i.e. the fact that the brain and mind are two very different entities. Henceforth, please bear in mind that it is the brain that comes under external influences, whereas the mind acts in accordance with its own natural reasons. So, sooner the better, but as much as possible, try to follow your mind which is governed by its natural reasons. Try to rein in your brain as much as possible. And then see, how soon you get attuned to the supreme ‘automation of destiny’. Nevertheless, it is not easy to flow with the mind, and that is why, it is not easy to carve your destiny. However, it is a matter of habit. The lesser you are affected by external influences, the greater emphasis you will automatically give to the mind instead of the brain.
B) Weaken your selfish instincts
This is one straight and simple way to connect to the ‘automation of destiny’ on which all the great and wise have laid utmost emphasis. Those who are truly knowledgeable and wise, inevitably teach you to weaken your selfishness. This is the reason they do not propagate any rituals; or give you false assurances. As such assurances and rituals thrive on selfishness, such practices instead of weakening, strengthens the selfishness of a person. This is the reason, all the wise beings of the likes of Krishna, Buddha, Jesus Christ and Kabir were strictly against false assurances and rituals, and condemned them unequivocally.
Unfortunately, in contrast to the knowledge imparted by these wise beings, the knowledge available at hand for human beings propagates nothing but selfishness which leaves little scope for them to be able to weaken their selfish instincts. The situation has now deteriorated to such an extent that it has become impossible for humans to grasp how their life can progress without being selfish. However, let me tell you that you have no other option but to weaken your selfish instincts, because without weakening your selfish instincts, you will not be able to attune yourself to the ‘automation of destiny’. Without reducing the extent of your selfishness, you will just not be able to grasp what it means to work for ‘sarva’―addressing the interests of all. And in case of not being able to comprehend sarva―the betterment of all, the supreme ‘automation of destiny’ which works merely for ‘sarva sukhay-sarva hitaay’ i.e. the welfare and betterment of all, will not accept you in its fold or allow you to connect with it.
Computation of Sarva
It now becomes important to know, how to keep selfishness aside and think, act and take all decisions in the interests of ‘sarva–the betterment of all’?...But to do that, you need to understand, that it is a mammoth calculation. The calculations of sarva comprise the permanent addressal of collective interests of all human beings, and such a vast calculation is possible only by the automation of your mind. Only the mind can undertake such massive calculations. Hence, please do not try to calculate or gauge the interests of sarva with the help of the brain. Even if you do, you will invariably fail; you will just not be able to calculate anything. It is only when your selfish instincts weaken, that your inner computer dwelling in the deep recesses of your mind which always works in the collective interests of all, will begin to get activated by itself. Thereupon, gradually, you will be able to comprehend the collective interests of all. From that moment onwards, there will be no looking back for you. Your life will automatically begin to scale the heights of peace, progress, success and prosperity. The much revered Krishna had mastered this computation of destiny. He had comprehensive knowledge of this computation, and more importantly, was in full command of the implications all his words and actions would elicit even after thousands of years. If you desire, even you can relinquish all your selfish instincts and bring your inner computer close to the computer of ‘Krishna’.
Unlock the Secrets
Now, you must read the keys to unlock the secrets of destiny listed below against the backdrop of this prologue and find their glimpses in your day-to-day practices and experiences of life. Know with certainty that the more you identify them in your daily practice, the more you are attuned to the supreme ‘automation of destiny’ and accordingly you will find that the condition of your life reflects the same. So you must take the listed keys as the practical test of life, and try to bring them into your daily practice to the best of your ability. With this step, your inner computer will soon begin to get attuned with the ‘automation of destiny’ as these secrets are indicative of the attributes of those who are flowing in sync with the ‘automation of destiny’. The more you try to bring yourself closer to these traits, the faster you will progress, and your life will scale the heights of success and you will begin to tread the path of your purpose in life even faster. Here, make note that the sole reason for all the prevalent anxieties and stress of human life is a human being’s digression from the path of his purpose. So as long as a person does not realise the purpose of his coming into existence, not only would he remain stressed and anxious but he would also die in that state of perplexity and anxiety. It is a law that just as a mango seed can’t be satiated or become content without blossoming into a mango tree, a human being too can’t become content without achieving the purpose of his coming into existence.
When you do not have the ‘choice’ to do something positive, then naturally, you do not have the ‘power to decide’ to do something positive either.
The one who is grounded in reality becomes contented. And once he becomes contented, God himself asks him, “Tell me, what do you want...?”
Unless your ‘Time’, meaning your ‘Mind’ does not improve, you cannot expect a positive change in your ‘Space’, meaning your external circumstances.
You will have to do whatever the situation demands. No matter what happens man will just have to learn to salute the ‘Present’.
You love others exactly in the manner and to the extent that you love yourself. In other words, the level of animosity you harbour towards the world is equal to the level of animosity you feel towards yourself. This is the supreme law of love.
Karma and its fruits are two sides of the same coin. But for the common man, karma and its fruits are two different things. And this is what is wrong…because it is the law, that the greater the difference and time lapse between a man’s karma and its fruit, the farther he is drifting away from his great destiny.
You are the Supreme Soul, irrespective of who you are. Do not be anxious to change anything internally or externally. Every desperate attempt to change, will take you away from yourself. When and how to change yourself as well as your circumstances and to what extent, are issues always best left to the ‘automation of destiny’.
The Mind is neither partial, nor does it discriminate against anybody. The mind is its own master. Therefore, the more someone tries to suppress the impulses of your Mind or makes you work against it, the more resentful you become towards him…and this entire process is automatic. Therefore, as far as possible, do not try to suppress your mind or that of others...otherwise you will continue drifting away from the ‘automation of destiny’.
The automation of your Mind is acting and reacting on its own because of its malfunctioning; please let it play out all of its actions and reactions. Do not interfere with this automatic process of actions and reactions. This one habit will lead you to become great and unparalleled in this very lifetime. This is the supreme principle of Time and Destiny.
In every incident that occurs around you, destiny has a hidden message for you. If you can comprehend that indication and decipher the message, your future life can be filled with joy and success.
Look at what every great person has proved in his life; then you will not need to know or understand anything else about him; because everyone becomes great only upon proving something.
If a person is troubling you in any measure, carefully note whether or not you too are giving him equal amount of trouble. Because, he just cannot trouble you for no reason at all; that is the irrevocable law of destiny.
None of the great or meaningful teachings will be useful to you until you move closer to ‘your inner automation’.
It is the supreme law of destiny that application of any force or compulsion on yourself will trouble you, and one day, will destroy you.
The amount of problems that the world is creating for you is equal to the amount of problems that lie within you. No one is getting anything extra from anywhere else in the world.
Learn to move while being stationary…and learn to absorb light without seeing. Everyone has achieved greatness purely on the basis of this one quality. Only the truthfulness in the mind of a person can perform this miracle.
When Nature itself does not stop us from doing anything, then why do you, driven by your ego, wish to repeatedly interfere in other people’s lives and become superior to Nature?
The less you interfere in other people’s life, the lesser will other people’s interference be in your life, and that is what your true happiness is.
