24 The Answer to everything
The answer to everything is known. Know it.
23 Kill your mind
You are reading this.
Are you?
Do you have questions you don’t have the answer to? Do you speculate what is life? What is existence? Why are we on this earth?
We all have many questions in life, and we don’t have answers to them. But we are smart people. Let’s use our logic and elevate it to chaos.
Logic helps explain the world to us. We use logic and science to enhance our knowledge of the universe we live in. We are happy that we are making progress, going ahead, doing something constructive.
All our efforts are finally aimed at explaining why the hell are we on this earth? what is life? what’s the purpose of life? Why did it all start?
It’s so easy to spoil it all. The “centuries” of scientific progress can not answer these whys?
Why can’t science answer anything non scientific?
The answer is simple.
The weakness of logic lies in the fact that logic isn’t true in itself. It needs external entities which it can only relate with each other. Using logic we only express relations between two entities. And when the relation sounds convincing (if it holds true in most or all cases) then we find the logic accurate. Logic helps in perception. Logic helps in “making sense” of the world.
Now let’s put the process of Logic under the scanner of logic.
What is logic?
Can we logically explain the existence of logic?
Logic exists because we need logic to “make sense” of this world. So logic exists because the world exists. Because we exist. Without us, there is no need for logic, so there won’t be any logic.
And so, logic is a consequence of the human desire to need to explain and understand.
Ha ha.
But the truth is beyond logic.
Sample this:
You are not reading this. You are really not reading this. Make yourself realize that you are not reading this. Your mind won’t let you realize that you are not reading this. You have forgotten to realize. You will know the truth when you will realize that you are not reading this.
Don’t think. Follow your heart. And don’t be scared.Life is nothing.

19 Wisdom
Wisdom is directly related to the power of abstraction.
The more you can detach your perception from the details associated with the entity under consideration, the wiser your understanding of that entity.
A living being when born is free of the assumptions and common knowledge that dominate the train of thoughts of a “grown-up” living being. It takes a lot of wisdom to be able to disregard the “knowledge” of the contemporaries and to formulate an understanding founded on abstractions which necessarily provide no details.
Our primate instincts for accumulating information to aid our survival is what presses us into delving deeply into details. This might be an important aspect of material survival, but it blinds the dormant abstracted wisdom that everyone has.
Don’t see the words, don’t form the sentences, don’t understand the ideas.
Feel the truth and be wise.

It ceases when you open your mouth to speak.
It ceases when you begin to type to explain it.
It ceases when you think about it.
When you don’t think, you cease to exist.
That’s when you know.
That’s when you know what it means to exist.
That’s when you liveNdie [live and die - a metaphysical state]
How many roots do you have?
How many branches exist on the moon?
Are single trains slid into hell?
Does the ant murder poetry?
Did that puzzle your mind? Did it make you think in overdrive? Did it make you stop thinking?
Koans are such questions which have no answer and their only intention is to stop the mind since theres no way you can begin to answer such questions.
The more the mind gets to stop, the more it WAKES up.
Wake Up.
10 Artistic Expressions
The most beautiful expressions of one’s self are those that are chaotic in nature. If you draw a square on a piece of paper, its not called art. But draw a closed wavy loop and you are definately more artistic than a geometrician.
Even superiour expressions are those that have structure and are amorphous at the same time. A painting of abstract art becomes beautiful because the chaos is restricted to the frame that surronds the painting. Beyond the frame there is the familiarity and regularity and predicability of the usual world.
That’s what makes us appreciate art further. Because they are a window to what can be. If the whole world was an artistic expression you wouldn;t appreciate the art you do appreciate now; you would still look at a painting within that world and be impressed by it. And that painting would be something that deviates further from the standard established by the artistic expressions of the world. That deviation could be either towards a more uncertain expression, or maybe it would be a retrodevaition – a square.
That can be used to extrapolate and realise that our world is indeed beautiful.
So what stands out. Why does it stand out. Why aren’t there any exclamatory or question marks after these questions. Aren’t they questions. Aren’t they rhetorics.
What stands out is what should stand out.
We are kept in thisl world by our brain. If we were brainless we would be in the Real world. And then we would not think, we would know. And we would know that there is nothing to know.
