The One Way or the True Philosophy of Life

There is only one way to live this life: through love and sacrifice. To love and love absolutely, and lead a life of sacrifice is the only true way on Earth. But the way we cling to our possessions, our beliefs, and above all our severe conditionings, it is really difficult to break away from our mould.

You (you and me and everyone included) need to throw everything away - there is no need to fear to throw away even life. Only when you give everything you have, everything you know, everything you think of as ‘mine', and in the denial of all that is not the Self, then only the One shall arise within you, and you shall know that ‘I am He'. Below the surface consciousness we are all One; our point of origin is One. So by giving to ‘others', we actually give to ‘ourselves'.

There is only the One and you cannot find yourself, or the absence of yourself. You are yourself, but you do not know what you are, and whatever you know about yourself is just a guess or someone else's guess and your's or the other's guess is wrong!! You are staring into a void and this void is actually void of voidness! It should make no difference whether we dispose of ‘me' or the ‘other', for the disposal of either eliminates both. The method is to ‘cease or terminate your thinking' as from a self (please note the difference between self (me, my ego) and Self (the One); there is no other way to differentiate).

Who is this You? You - whoever you may be - are just an error of perception or observation, or a misinterpretation of facts - a delusion, a false impression. Once we can look squarely into this fact we get to understand that that which is self is other; that which is other is self, and this which I AM is neither self nor other. Each ‘other' becomes (or is) a ‘self' to itself, and each ‘self' becomes (or is) an ‘other' to another ‘self'.

It is also true that you cannot throw away the Self; the Self within you never ceases to live. This is the true philosophy of life. Yet this concept will remain, for the majority of us for the majority of time, within the domains of philosophy; not yet ready to be put into practice unless we realize this truth this very ‘moment'.

Self-Realization is your birthright; it is not be attained, it is yours (yours means you and me included).

Why am I writing all these? Because it is better that we all should speak out the truth that we see - howsoever partial rather than complete it maybe. At the same time there is no need to silence the truth of others; others may also have caught a glimpse of something that we do not possess. So let us speak out our truths and yet not engage in the denunciation of the truth of others.

There should be an absolute liberty of thought and speech; where we are wrong, time will correct us; where we are mistaken, truths will gradually burn up our errors. But if one silences another then one letter of the complete truth may slip out of sight, and be lost from the life of the world, a letter which should have had its place in the whole.

Let us all be led along the path of imagination and discovery; so that each one of us becomes an observer, a recipient of truth, a dealer in possibilities. We all have our own individual roles to play - all important to the original scheme of things.
