GOD COSMOS AND ENLIGHTENED WAY

MAN:

When all life are immersed in the fate, designed by the way the world and the will move, and everybody follows different paths according to the biological nature and the environment in which one is born, what is an enlightened way? When most ways of life are basically dictated by the needs and necessities, and  the search for security and success against the competitors, who may threaten one`s choice and freedom at every step, how can one abandon the path one is following and instead find an enlightened way which may help to resolve all conflicts and end sufferings? When abandoning the path may mean failing to defend the ground from were one secures one`s life, what is the meaning of an enlightened path, which all human beings should follow? For a human being, who must remain engaged in the conflicts and battle at every step, what is the path that can bring peace and tranquillity to life? Does there exist a unique path for all, or do different people need to follow different paths to arrive at the desired goal?

ENLIGHTENED MAN:

Everybody works and moves following the way the world and the will work and move. The enlightened path is the way to tune oneself with the higher realm of the mind. For someone, who is trapped in the destiny of the world, darkened by the material nature of the law-bound realm, and the will-to-exist and thus constantly fighting and struggling against the menacing forces, it is a way to find freedom from the realm of suffering. One, who lives amidst storms and tumults raging around, and whose

life is unceasingly threatened by hostile forces, has to find a lagoon where one may make the sailing safe and secure. Instead of sinking more in the darkness of ignorance, where one is moving, and without knowing the forces of the world, which rage, one should learn to gauge the danger and the disaster which may lie ahead along one`s path. One should seek from the enlightened minds knowledge and information so that  one may be refrained from sailing in the darkened realms of the mind.  Man may create his or her own danger. Unless one guards oneself with wisdom and values, which can protect life from the destructive forces of nature, life can become a perilous journey steered by the darkness of the ego. Enlightened way is a way to remain aware of this danger while one lives and moves in the world.  

Enlightened way is not a specific one way path for all. It can take many shapes and directions depending on the way one is moving and living , which is decided by one`s circumstances of life and freedom. One can not carve out an enlightened path for oneself without being subjected to the constraints of the social-order, in which one lives. In a society darkened by wars and conflicts, and sunk in the ignorance of the mind, the enlightened way is far more difficult to realize than in a society enjoying opulence and peace. Though an individual has to choose one`s direction to move, the society in which one lives, needs to provide the ground where such a path may be laid. In order to pave such a path one needs to kindle light of knowledge and information about the nature of the world and the will, and the higher realms of the mind.

One should know that all life belong to the same “reality” attended by the powers of the world, the will and the spirit: Some life are more bound to nature; some enjoy freedom and power of creativity; some are attuned to the Buddha nature of the mind. They all are immersed in the same “reality”, which takes different forms of experiences according to the way the mind relates to the “reality” woven in many levels of consciousness.  Enlightened path is the path which brings man to a higher realization of existence. It is a way to attune the mind to a higher state of consciousness. All mortals, whether one may find oneself in a fallen or a transcended state, have a higher level to attain, and experience the “reality” as a higher realm of the spirit which pervades all. There always exists higher experiences beyond what one may have experienced in life. These higher experiences can free the soul more from the bondage of the world and will and give directions to move along even higher paths. Thus by following the enlightened path one may move upwards to the realm of the  Buddha Mind.

One, who has attained the Buddha-Mind, knows about the existence of many paths which move through the world that life must cross. Buddha-mind remains awakened by the realization that all life must pass through different realms of consciousness which cast their shadows in the movement of the world and the will. It sees itself in the multitudes of images in the movement of the world and the will and experiences in the varieties of living and non-living beings the presence of the Spirit, who is One with all.
