The Re-Education Of Me: Mind, Body, Spirit ConnectionPosted by Gay Cox on February 3rd, 2021 As explained so clearly in the eastern scriptures the Bhagavad-Gita there is an endless war that wages between the body Kurukshetra with its whole army of old veteran warriors the ego consciousness and the other side, the soul battling for supremacy called The Battlefield of Life.This is a war between two generals facing each other known as Behma the soul verses Bhisma the ego consciousness. The two opposing generals are the forces of good and evil. The purpose of Bhisma or ego is to keep the souls attention continuously busy with countless enticements and sensations. Instead of throwing the searchlight on God the pseudo soul keeps the soul reflected on the senses keeping the soul in bondage in the slums of the body. That is why the master says the love of your body is nothing but the love of your own jail. Not that we should reject it but do not be attached to your body. I believe that each one of us received a whisper of what we are meant to be, from a very young age. Depending on our human guardians, this whisper either turned into a loud roar, or quickly and swiftly was buried deep down in the recesses of our mind. Based on our lives, we either pursued or abandoned what we desired in our hearts. Care of our will, we gave up, gave in or decided to win.The incredible thing about the call is that it works like a personal cellphone. Only this line does not stop ringing, whether we put it on silent mode or not. It only stops when we do, that is, when we cease to breathe. Uncompromised Life means that at any given time and situation, we are able to quickly grab the phone, and answer the call. This is the life-line.Like it? Share it! |
