Road to the Enlightenment
There are many ways to the Enlightenment. Many roads, different obstacles, unique challenges, same tantrum, same laughter and tears. Up and down, stumbling and trembling, rocky or smooth…..anyway it will lead us to the Destination eventually.
But there are two patterns similarity amongst the road. First is celibacy or restrain of the world senses intake. Second is a tantric life
The first option required us to be discipline to limit the 5 senses stimulation through body experience. Discipline gained through fasting, long meditation, no sexual activity, limited material possession. We know that temptation such as desire, obsession come from outside through all our senses. What we seek, hear, smell, taste, touch all are illusion and entrapment for our Inner Self. People tend to forget their Divine Source and stumblingly seek after outside pleasure. Forgotten all the game that we have created and losing our self in the game.
Body when receives very limited stimulation will lose control over the Soul, and become weaker. Mind depend on body; weaker body, less thought since there;s no energy to feed the mind especially for excessive thinking that could create desires.
It seems like a suffering process, But this way could lead to the liberation of desire and freedom. Eventually it will take you to the real joy and compassion.
The second way is requiring human to live their life fullest and achieve their dream. Human is manifestation of God and God create us to be Its Mirror to reflect Its Greatness and Perfection. We live in the 3rd dimension with all sensuality sensation of our physical body.
Who create the world? what the limit of the Universes? The limit of the Universes is as the limit of human mind……..which means; unlimited.
We all create our life and we will always be in creation process since we are the part of The Grand Master game. World has been created as our playground. What game that we play ? The game that will lead us to understand ourselves better. What kind of joy? the joy that will lead us to be grateful and willing to share to others.
By daring to live and achieving our dream. By taking challenge and using our gut feeling. By not afraid of losing and stumbling down, bleeding, suffering but only to stand up again and keep walk towards our dream without losing appreciation of our present journey…..we will go for our enlightenment. We are not going anywhere because we are Here in our Home already. Just our journey, experience that turn into wisdom has made us realize that all the process is to make ourselves understand better.
The material world and all the sensuality are illusion, yes that’s right. But who create those illusion? we create that. For what? To play and enjoy without losing the understanding the rules of the game. To learn about enjoyment without desire to possess and attachment. Life as a wheel. Sometimes up and down. When we are in the top of the world, celebrate and share to others. Bless people with your joy. Spread love and dance. When we lose everything we have such as our beloved ones, wealth, fame……just letting go and be compassionate. It would be time to go inside and relax your being.
Some people will think, that this road to enlightenment is easier than the first one. But in my opinion based on my experience. The second option is the hardest one. For me to be spiritual aware in the path, easier when we restrain our body from all outside influences. Gradually I lose interest of world possessed, ambition, money and sex. I feel liberated, calm and happy.
The second way is more challenging. Because I let my self indulge all in the hedonistic activities meanwhile must keep the awareness nside me.
Meditation in daily activity. How to celebrate without possessing. How to make love without attachment. How to enjoy money without greed and lust. How to be success and achieve all my dream without obsession. The temptation is very high and could easily swing your life.
But now, I choose the second option. I love life. I love world, love, sensuality, money, beauty and I want to fulfilled my life with the best I can do because I am the Creator of my Reality.
It will give me a new experience and step closer to the understanding of my Self. Experience turning to Wisdom. The wisdom of love, joy and compassion. Benefiting myself towards others. And hopefully others will benefit my presence as human being in this world
