The problem of art of living; How to live?



Once upon a time a fish named Mindy identified itself to be a fish , the self identification was unique and precious . With that came the knowledge of other fishes and sea creatures , the knowledge of existence of sea, its composition !

 Mindy had always found itself in the water, never knew how and why she was there and being a smart, mindful fish as she was ,she started working on the hypothesis of how and when the sea was formed and about different other sea and sea worlds.

Mindy was different, She could rationalize that." life could just not be just looking for food, mating and wandering in the sea aimlessly! "
There ought to be some aim ,some lofty goal

Mindy was revolutionary and progressive at heart. She had faith in involution , always striving to be better without and within .
 The other fishes were mindless , they knew nothing , no self knowledge, no higher goals, no urge to transcend!
"They were just living!!"
Mindy was searching for the best answers and tips as to "how to live" .Striving to live a fulfilling , meaningful and perfect life! She did not also just consume any food but the right food!
Mindy also believed in a a new self less world where there was just unconditional love, she was more like humans, less like fishes, all the other fishes had no concept of self and thus they spared the effort to be self less!
Mindy was tied up in its pursuit of self improvement and self exploration. 

The life was now not so easy as Mindy was now this pursuit, a pursuit to be what Mindy was not ! She was looking for some entity who could lay down the correct path for her..Mindy was no doubt worked up,weary of its search, always on a lookout until she finally died! 
But Mindy had inspired many creatures to search for their goal,to try to live healthily and happily, To work to lead a meaningful and fulfilling life!
The basic and the most relevant question of "how to live" would now be central to their living! The core of their struggle and travails.
The other aquatic life forms were just living! or life was just happening!


Everyone telling everyone as to how to live
Waging a war itself and then looking for olive
The thought strives to know, what it already knows!
And the life beyond all this just flows!!

Have you ever wondered that you are still chasing HAPPINESS.

Do you realize that you were always doing the same?

Happiness without a moment of unhappiness!

Pleasure without pain

Pleasure through money, sex, fame, entertainment, professional achievement, academic achievement, religion, spirituality, charity,

All pleasures are the same , practicing religion or meditation no better or worse than sex or entertainment.
All pleasures are private, ‘’self’’ seeking & ‘’self’’ fulfilling.


Spiritual   authorities have laid stress on searching the inner joy, the search will always remain as a search as the inner & the outer are the same, the goal is to seek infinite pleasure through the help of thought.

If you believe Giving , sharing  and caring gives TRUE HAPPINESS, then it may be disappointing to know that there is no true happiness .....
It is just the ''I'' feeling high!! other is just a tool for the same!


Thought translates a particular sensation into pleasure and wants it to be repeated all the time

Thoughts are busy seeking happiness, and that’s how there is no gap between them, a never ending pursuit of becoming, becoming someone, becoming happy.

Happiness without unhappiness is impossible, just as only day is impossible without the night.

IS THERE ANY THING CALLED HAPPINESS IN THE UNIVERSE OR IS IT A MENTAL CONSTRUCT?
THE LIFE THROBS EVERY MOMENT UNAWARE, OBLIVIOUS OF ALL HUMAN CONCEPTS AND PURSUITS

IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT HAPPINESS IS, YOU WILL NEVER BE UNHAPPY!!

Culture or society has a great role in thrusting upon us the pursuit of happiness, to be someone what one isn’t....

It is unfortunate that even with this realization and understanding, one cannot drop this pursuit of happiness; it is not in the interest of the thought structure to do so.

Destined to chase?......still chasing?
