ENLIGHTENMENT

I have met enlightened people from all walks of life. I've met an enlightened upcoming rap artists. I've met very enlighten Christian people, I've met others who are Rastafarian, traditional healers, and scientists, and even Hip-hop artists. There is all kinds of enlightenment from all different walks of life. All enlightened beings posses one distinct characteristic and that is, they are so well in tune of the awareness that all things are one, and that no one mode of philosophy or theological translation of what divinity is, is better than the other.

Enlightenment is no respecter of colour or creed or religion. All things in the universe work to bring enlightenment because everything illuminates and everything is essentially one thing. One can become enlightened by reading and meditating on the words of the bible and one can become enlightened by reading and contemplating studies and research compiled by science. Enlightenment is always readily attainable for any person who is now asking for it. Even from a simple utterance of words from someone or radio commercial can spark the process of Enlightenment for the soul that now yearns to understand.

An enlightened being is one who is not hell bent on trying to prove his wisdom, or that he is right; because he strongly understands the simple truth that all paths lead to one basic and common truth which is, We are all one and Love is all there is. Any path that makes your heart sing and fills it with love and kindness is the path you must take. Many would love to claim that theirs is "The one true path" and that others are just gimmicks to distract you from the one true path. Others would like to prove why theirs is the real path by laying out testimonies and evidences in order to coax you into following their path. Many believe that through one divine being you will  reach the "Promised Land."  However, if there was only one path and only one truth, to that land then the mountain would only have one side in which it can be climbed. The would only be one tree with only one branch that would produce only one fruit that would satisfy the soul's hunger for Self Realisation. For that is what all paths lead to, the realising of the True Self, and the true self is ultimately in all. 

The spark of the divine is in all, through all and for all, on all paths. The divine is in the plenty. The divine is diverse.

Enlightenment can be achieved by anyone because enlightenment is our true state, our true origin. All religions and sciences have that at their heart. It is a universal character  in all traditions and regions where we realised the interconnectedness of each individual soul to the other. From the trees to mountains; to water in streams and oceans to clouds in the sky, and the air in between. 


Enlightenment is what life is about, to make our light out of our darkness of forgetfulness and thus making our Wills on earth as it is in heaven.

FAITH

Is there ever a time where its reasonable to have faith? Like really. When is it reasonable to have faith? Because if you think about it, whenever its reasonable to have faith it is no longer faith but just rationalisation.. When you have reasons to have faith its just that, reasons. Faith has no reason either than you really wanting something. Faith is not based on any concrete evidence, ever. Faith is the decision of a mind to maintain a disciplined positive expectation of a desired outcome.. And most of us fail in this because our faith fluctuates.. Usually we want reasons to have faith.. The most interesting part in life is that most of who we desire to be is dependant on faith. Just choosing to expect the best and that is independent of any religious beliefs or philosophy. Its a consistent act of a person to choose faith over fear, fear over not having concrete evidence to back it up. Faith is the complete surrender of the need to control things and to have it all f...

A MAN CAN CHOOSE TO BE ANYTHING

"A man can choose to be anything. He can partake in, be a part of anything that he wants to. He can become a beast, he can become a god. He can do anything." This thought keeps reappearing in all the writings of man. It states that we become what we choose to become whether we realise it or not. This is so true because as I grow older, I notice just how broad my being is. BEING : the continuous movement of becoming!! As a high school pupil I only saw myself as a math and science student whose aim was to be a master of science and nothing more. And then in  first year varsity I noticed my perception   grew   from a science student to one whose aim was to be a respectable chemical engineering professional, then suddenly I noticed that not only do I love science, but I have a proclivity for some business,  philosophy and even writing who knew!! And then that grew to psychology, which grew to  philosophy and spirituality and all of this my high-school-year old...

SIGNIFICANT FIGURES

On the bus to work I was busy go through my budget this month in my head. And as I was doing that, I was thinking of how we always have to make arrangements for unforeseen expenses, so I was thinking along the line of "roughly it will cost me this much." However as I had that thought another then just came up, and that was there are no insignificant numbers. Numbers that have no bearing to the total sum whatsoever. As an engineering student in my first year I got introduced to an unfamiliar term, "significant figures", quite frankly I am surprised I still remember this.In engineering and science we have to account for the significant decimals places that are there in a number. (Google this). For example if a number has the highest numbers of significant figures meaning more numbers after the decimal we take that as the numbers of significant figures we must round of to. So if you have a number that is 2.0003, those zeroes are significant because they can/will...
