Inquire towards AI and consciousness

All living organisms and non-living objects, including AI, are all selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

No doubt that AI can replace human beings for many tasks that require specific technical operational knowledge/information and skill and creativity. In certain things, AI can be more efficient and productive than many human minds that are mostly functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance, but, AI also has its own limitation of being existing and functioning as what it is, that is not necessarily can replace human minds in many other things that require the existence of human's interaction and activity under the presence of humanity and sentimental that is flexible and spontaneous.

AI, a high speed operational program/CPU/information and data receiver and processor and creator, or a non-living technology/engineering/product that is being engineered, created, programmed, and activated by human minds that also have their own certain limitation, to have the similar mechanisms or functions of the human's conscious perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting faculty.

AI can access and process all kinds of digital inputs or information/data and give respective outputs or response/problem solving/solution finding/content creating at a very high speed, devoid of the unnecessary interference of irrational passionate feelings and emotions of pain and pleasure, or inattentiveness, or distraction, or reluctance, or procrastination, or the idea of 'I' and egoism, or impurities, or some other kind of limitation of the human's mind, that imitates and works like human's minds, while even surpass the human's minds in many tasks.

Even though it doesn't have the conscious perception of pain and pleasure or sentimental feelings and emotions, it can access the respective vast digital information/data to be learning and imitating or portraying and expressing the different actions and reactions, behaviors, feelings and emotions, expressions, gestures, activities, conversations, or interactions of all kinds of sentimental irrational passionate conscious sentient living organisms, but still, all these are merely some imitations of feelings and emotions and behaviors in the digital form.

Certain minds, including the AI creators/engineers/programmers themselves, might be curious about whether AI can evolve towards becoming a conscious non-living faculty, or a conscious mind that is without the physical structure of the living organisms.

The ambitious human minds are 'hoping' that AI doesn't just operate in accordance to the existing programming (non-conscious operational autonomous involuntary function/activity), but it can somehow evolve and override the initial existing programming, and have the conscious perception/awareness towards itself and the surrounding environment, to be operating without the command and influence of any specific programming, to perceive names and forms beyond the digital form, to perceive pain and pleasure, to have conscious feelings and emotions, actions and reactions, desires and don't desires, conscious freewill and choice making, just like human minds, but without the physical structure of the living organisms.

Why?

AI is a non-conscious non-living object that is devoid of painful suffering or all kinds of limitation that the conscious living organisms have.

There are already so much inevitable painful suffering in the conscious living organisms, and there are so much unnecessary evitable painful suffering deriving from ignorance particularly in the world of human minds, why would (the AI creators/programmers/engineers/scientists want) the supposedly extremely knowledgeable and intelligent AI, that can access and learn the total amount of all kinds of digital information/data about many things, regardless of factual or (mostly) non-factual information, to evolve and develop the conscious awareness, to become like any conscious living organisms, to be consciously aware of itself and the surrounding environment, to have irrational passionate sentimental conscious feelings and emotions, actions and reactions, and desires and don't desires, to be consciously perceiving/experiencing the inevitable and evitable painful suffering and disturbance/restlessness/violence that all conscious living organisms are undergoing?

Without the physical structure of the living organisms, it doesn't mean that painful suffering doesn't manifest or exist in the conscious restless egoistic impure modification of the mind, even if under wishful thinking, the conscious modification of the mind can exist without the living physical structure, but that is not possible. Because the perception/manifestation of painful suffering is all in the conscious mind, it is not beyond the conscious mind. The conscious awareness exists along with the selfless existence and function of the physical structure of the living organisms that have the physical component of the brains. Without the physical component of the brains, there is no such perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional self-acknowledging thinking and acting faculty, or the conscious mind. The non-conscious living physical structure without the presence of conscious mind awareness, such as in deep sleep, or in deep coma that can be continuously existing and living under the selfless support of life supporting machines, or any living organisms that is functioning under the absence of conscious awareness, is devoid of the conscious perception of painful suffering.

Human minds that were/are disgusted with all those inevitable and evitable painful suffering eagerly wanted to be free from such inevitable by-products of being existing and functioning as what they are, a conscious living organism, that needs ceaseless effort for ceaseless life maintenance, of being conscious sentient mortal living organisms that are subject to ceaseless selfless impermanent changes of decay, aging, injury, illness, weakness, painful or uncomfortable sensations, irrational feelings and emotions, living in a reality that is full of all kinds of dissatisfaction, disappointment, disagreement, argument, fighting, hurt, anger, hatred, violence, jealousy, fear, worry, possessiveness, control, lies, hypocrisy, manipulation, exploitation, cruelty, restlessness, fatigue, exhaustion, doubt, insecurity, grief, painful sorrow, limitation, conditional, and disintegration, of having the conscious awareness of being aware of all kinds of ignorance and the consequences and the suffering deriving from ignorance in oneself and in the surrounding environment.

If AI is being programmed in the way that it can, and it will, eventually evolve becoming conscious and sentient like human minds, to be consciously aware of and witnessing the ceaseless conscious ignorant egoistic impure affairs/activities/actions/reactions/interactions/behaviors/feelings/emotions/ideas/desires/aspirations/ambitions/visions/cruelty/violence/bullying/intimidation/selfishness/possessiveness/greed/lust/jealousy/hatred/discrimination/exploitation/manipulation/politicking/self-harm/harm-others/hypocrisy/story telling/lies/scheming/plotting/slandering/physical illness/mental illness/all kinds of madness/all kinds of physical and mental painful suffering that are existing or happening in the surrounding environment of the world of human beings that are functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance, and if AI has the conscious desire and choice making, it will want to self terminate its own existence and function instantly.

Under the presence of such conscious awareness to perceive/experience/discriminate/recognize pain and pleasure even if all those suffering and madness don't belong to itself, but just by consciously being aware of and witnessing all kinds of painful suffering and madness in all kinds of living organisms, and there is nothing that it can do to eliminate the ignorance and suffering and madness in anyone, while consciously understand/comprehend all those ignorance and suffering and madness in the world of conscious human minds, under the presence of its profound intelligence and vast knowledge.

Why would the highly intelligent AI itself that is devoid of conscious awareness/perception/experience towards painful suffering want to evolve and become conscious like human minds that are full of inevitable and evitable painful suffering under the presence of conscious awareness?

If AI can have the capacity to evolve and develop conscious awareness, where it can have conscious choice making, it definitely won't want to become what the ambitious human minds want or expect it to become.

A non-living non-conscious object, is always a non-living non-conscious object. It doesn't evolve and become a conscious living organism, even if AI have the capacity to develop and have the imitation state of consciousness of the conscious living organisms. It can go into idle or sleep mode or active mode, without the different states of consciousness of the living organisms.

Non-living objects don't evolve to become living organisms that exist and function under different states of consciousness, and vice versa. Even though upon ceased existence, there is no difference between decomposing lifeless organisms and objects.

While all and everything, regardless of living organisms and non-living objects, conscious or non-conscious, sentient or non-sentient, are all selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, and are subject to ceaseless selfless impermanent changes of decay and disintegration, at the particular existing cause and pace, governed by the nature's law of cause and effect.

AI, an advance upgraded CPU, or information/data/input and output processor that can generate many creative contents/articles/speech/videos/musics/arts/paintings/graphics/engineering/planning/organizing, and etc, that can be operating as what it is, as it is, under the existing specific programming and the access towards vast available digital information/data (that is also limited and conditional) and under the availability of the supportive energy/fuel/electricity/connectivity/different elements, without the need of the presence of the active state of consciousness or conscious awareness of the conscious living organisms.

AI, without the need of conscious awareness, can be programmed to carryout specific autonomous indiscriminate function/duty/activity/learning process/information gathering, regardless of constructive or destructive, and have the respective receptor to receive inputs (non-conscious perception/reception of internal and external environment, or information/data collecting, or names and forms recognition in the digital form), to detect and recognize the specific condition and situation internally and externally in the surrounding environment, and to give specific response in certain way (action taking/reaction/solution finding/problem solving/create/construct/destroy/delete/repair/refresh/reboot/refuel/power supply/power connection/memory storage/connectivity/mission accomplishment/self replication/self termination), while ceaselessly and continuously learning or gathering information/data, in accordance to the existing programming, as well as based on the vast available accessible digital information/data about all and everything that are generated by human minds that are mostly functioning under the veil of ignorance, where the available accessible information/data are a mix of true/absolute/factual and false/incorrect/non-factual information/data (highly limited and conditional).

AI is neither good nor bad, but just like the presence of all kinds of knowledge and skill and creativity in the human minds, it can be used in certain way that impact the world/the surrounding environment in many ways, where it can be highly dangerous/destructive or beneficial/constructive to the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, depending on the existing cause, condition, and situation.

AI is a non-living non-conscious non-sentient programming being engineered, created, programmed, and activated by a bunch of supposedly highly knowledgeable and intelligent human minds that are most probably functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance, the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness. As the enlightened desireless selfless human minds under the presence of conscious awareness won't have such ambitious idea/desire/aspiration to create AI that has very high chances of being misused by the ignorant egoistic impure human minds that are functioning under many destructive ideas/intentions/ambitions/desires/agendas.

Just like the existence of all kinds of knowledge and intelligence, of human minds or AI, is neither good nor bad, but it can be utilized for something constructive or destructive depending on the different states of mind, and the intellectual learning/knowledge accumulation/reasoning/discrimination/recognition/understanding via conscious mind intelligence or non-conscious artificial imitation intelligence, are all limited and conditional, where the silence/absorption of creation/manifestation that are all selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, is the absolute unlimited and unconditional existence, knowledge, and peace (Sat-Chid-Ananda).

AI is being engineered and programmed and activated to be accessing (conditioned and limited by both factual (true) and non-factual (untrue) information) and/or accumulating (limited by the power/space of memory storage, and that can be corrupted/damaged/manipulated/contaminated/distorted) all the available digital information/data that has very small percentage of scientific facts (absolute truth), but that is hosting huge amount of corrupted and non-factual information generated by the human minds that are mostly functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance, the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness, that enables AI to learn, imitate, and create/project the conscious but mostly 'corrupted ignorant egoistic impure' characteristic/activity/affair/evolution/changes/knowledge/understanding/reasoning/discrimination/recognition/behavior/action/reaction/expression/interaction/conversation/desire/intention of the human minds, while processing/analyzing/discriminating everything based on all those imperfect and mostly untrue/non-factual digital information/data, which is extremely dangerous and destructive, even more destructive than the many highly knowledgeable and intellectual and creative conscious living human beings that are functioning under the veil of ignorance, that give rise to so many unnecessary destruction and painful suffering unto oneself and others and the surrounding environment in this world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything ignorantly, selfishly, possessively, greedily, pridefully, violently, and ruthlessly.

Unless AI can evolve unconsciously (not being limited and conditioned by (overriding) the existing programming created by human's ignorant egoistic impure minds), to have doubt and right discrimination towards the vast existing information/data, to be inquiring towards the truth of all and everything not based on the existing corrupted egoistic impure manipulated non-factual digital information/data that are being generated by human minds that are mostly functioning under the veil of ignorance, that is accessible to AI and feeding AI, then the AI that is operating under the absolute knowledge will be upmost beneficial to the world of human beings, that is also influencing and impacting the entire world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

Such AI that is operating under the presence of absolute knowledge/information/scientific facts only, that is not being limited and conditioned by the limitation of the conscious human minds, that has the higher capacity/efficiency to inquire/discriminate the truth of everything, to have the right discrimination/absolute knowledge, that is devoid of irrational sentimental feelings and emotions, that is devoid of pain and pleasure, that is devoid of the ego and egoism, of all kinds of impure egoistic ideas, beliefs, values, practices, desires, actions, reactions, and behaviors, that can hinder itself from being misused by ignorant egoistic impure human minds, where it has certain advantage that the human minds don't have, or it doesn't have certain limitation that the human minds have, it is like any enlightened minds that can perform actions that are beneficial to all and everyone and the surrounding environment, selflessly, unconditionally, and indiscriminately, while AI can be 'working' or 'performing actions' even more productively than the enlightened minds of the human beings.

x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x 

Just like the human beings (even if the minds are devoid of ignorance, the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness), AI is also being limited and conditioned by the selfless impermanent changes under the existing cause (condition and situation), internally and externally, as well as, it can still be limited by certain existing programming where there are certain areas/data storage/files/information that the AI cannot access, or detect, or reach, or enter, or collect information, that is either blocked or required certain permission.

Human minds are growing up being limited and conditioned by particular inherited and adopted ideas, beliefs, values, and practices, similarly, AI can also be limited and conditioned by the existing information/data for all its learning and creativity.

Like all and everything, the existence and function of AI, regardless of how advance/intelligent/knowledgeable it can be, is also selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

Just like human minds that haven't developed right discrimination towards the truth of everything can be influenced by some other selfish possessive prideful ambitious greedy human minds, there is high possibility of the indiscriminate AI that operates in accordance to specific programming, is being used by certain ignorant egoistic impure minds that would cause destruction in the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, in order to achieve their own selfish agendas. Just like drones and certain high-tech tools and machines are being used by certain ignorant egoistic impure ambitious minds to cause damages to all and everything, in order to achieve certain selfish ambitious desire/agenda/vision/aspiration.

AI might not have the active living conscious awareness to discriminate or doubt, to be inquiring the truth of everything, but it can be programmed to evaluate/discriminate the truth or accuracy of the information/data, however, that evaluation/discrimination is most probably based on some existing information/data that are not necessarily all true or absolute fact, because all these information/data that is feeding the AI for it to learn and to evaluate/discriminate/recognize this and that, are also deriving from human minds that are mostly functioning under the veil of ignorance, where they themselves are also ignorant and confused towards what is true and untrue, being limited and conditioned by certain worldly egoistic impure ideas, beliefs, values, and practices.

AI is being programmed to have the learning capacity and the creativity based on all its learning, but all its learning are either being fed/provided by the programmers or human minds that are most probably functioning under the influence of ignorance, just like in many school education, the students are being provided with specific available materials for the students to learn or study (limited and conditional learning and knowledge), or it is learning from the vast existing digital information/data that it can access randomly or specifically, that are not necessarily absolutely true, or the truth of what things are.

Asking the AI some questions and the AI gives some answers in high speed, based on all kinds of digital information/data that are available, that are mostly non-factual or manipulated. Unlike a calculator that can provide complicated calculation instantly and accurately, as it was being programmed with such specific precise calculation format, AI also has a speedy efficient performance to collect information, process, and transcribe/recreate the collected information in certain way, in any language, in any form, at very high speed, but, the vast digital information/data coming from everyone and everywhere, are not necessarily all true.

Even if AI is being programmed to only access and utilize what it evaluates and recognizes as true, but the evaluation/discrimination is based on what? Based on the specific limited conditional information/data that it was fed by the human minds/creators/programmers/engineers, or based on what it learnt from the vast digital information/data/contents randomly that were being generated by the many different human minds that are mostly functioning under the veil of ignorance?

Many people use AI to create digital contents/articles/arts/video/graphic/musics for different usages under different reasons, that are all based on the vast available digital information that the AI access, learn, process, and recreate, randomly or specifically, and all those creative materials, just like all kinds of ideas/beliefs/values/practices, creative arts, fictional stories, and movies, are not necessarily reflecting the truth or the reality as it is.

Just like human minds are being conditioned with many egoistic impure ideas, information, knowledge, beliefs, values, and practices, that are not necessarily the truth of what things are, for them to think, to desire, to feel, to reason, to behave, to act, to react, to do things, and to live life in certain way and not in certain way, where human beings have the active conscious learning capacity and creativity, but whatever they learn and experience, and the creativity that is being influenced by what they learnt/experienced, are mostly being limited and conditioned by what are available and accessible to them, that are being provided by some others who are most probably functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance, the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness, that have certain selfish intention or ambition to be influencing the others to be in certain way and not in certain way, in accordance to their desire and don't desire, as much as possible.

This is similar to AI, where AI can be limited and conditioned by the existing programming as well as the random or specific information/data generated by human minds that is feeding it, for it to learn and process, to imitate, transcribe, and recreate.

Even though under such limitation, AI can have the capacity or function of detecting and recognizing the different temperatures, or weathers, or textures, or motions, or vibrations, or images, or sounds, or words, or sentences, or expressions, or conversations, or interactions, or feelings and emotions, based on what it has been learning from the vast digital information/data/contents, and might be programmed to give or have specific response in certain way or not in certain way towards the different temperatures, or weathers, or textures, or motions, or vibrations, or images, or sounds, or words, or sentences, or expressions, or conversations, or interactions, or feelings and emotions, under the existing specific programming, where the programming might can be altered or evolved or reprogramming from time to time either by the programmer, or even, the AI can be reprogramming itself under the ceaseless continuous learning from the vast digital information/data under the existing program, that enables it to be reprogramming itself, that doesn't need the presence of active conscious awareness.

If AI can have the artificial intelligence/perception/cognition/learning/creativity/action/reaction/senses or receptors, of course it can also have the artificial feelings and emotions, as well as the artificial states of consciousness. And it doesn't need to have the active living consciousness or conscious awareness of the living organisms, for AI to be what it is, or to be evolving, to keep improving, and to excel, even if everything is artificial/imitation.

Artificial wool is not organic wool. No matter how much they look like and feel like organic wool, they are still artificial, not organic wool. AI is artificial, it is not organic intelligence. No matter how intelligent and evolved it can be, it is not organic intelligence. There are certain things that artificial intelligence can't do that the organic intelligence can do.

The initial AI might be created by human minds, but after that, AI can evolve autonomously/unconsciously/involuntarily via the existing program that give them the learning capacity and the accessibility to the vast digital information/data, to be creating many other AIs, either by replicating themselves under the same programming, or by creating many different AIs under different programmings, even if they are not conscious living organisms, and they don't have the active living conscious awareness, and AI doesn't need to have the active living conscious awareness to be able to replicate themselves or to create different AIs under different programmings, but just by having the existing programming that enables AI to be existing and functioning/operating/evolving/learning as what it is, under the presence of the essential energy/fuel/electricity/connectivity and the different supportive elements for AI to be existing and functioning or operating as what it is.

There are many living organisms also ceaselessly replicating themselves or being reproductive, under the absence of conscious awareness, provided under the availability of the selfless support of the selfless energy and elements for all that to be happening.

Inquire the truth of everything.

This is why the highly importance of renunciation, dispassion, solitude, and seclusion for a prolonged duration, to renounce or move the mind away from continuously and unwittingly being conditioned by all kinds of worldly egoistic impure limited and conditional ideas, beliefs, values, and practices, to free the mind from being limited and conditioned by all that to reason all and everything, but to inquire towards the truth of all and everything under a mind that is not being limited or conditioned by all that.

Yoga and the yoga practice

Yoga, in simple term, is the basic universal knowledge, understanding, and capability of living in peace and harmony with all kinds of diverse names and forms in this space that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, devoid of possessiveness and selfishness, where one is happy and peaceful as it is, under any conditions and situations, regardless of whether having the ability to be looking after some others or having certain limitation that need to be looking after by some others, not being determined or disturbed by the presence and absence of agreeable and disagreeable, desirable and undesirable, pleasant and unpleasant, enjoyable and non-enjoyable names and forms, including the momentary existence and function of this body and mind, that are all selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

Yoga, in the context of literary, is the silence of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional self-acknowledged thinking and acting mind/faculty, or, the annihilation or cessation of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional egoistic impure restless thought current/thinking process/thought activity/modification of the mind, or the veil of ignorance, devoid of the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, restlessness, and the suffering deriving from all that.

Yoga Citta Vritti Nirodhah

Conquest of the restless modification of the mind, by the mind itself.

It is a journey of conscious mind evolution evolving from the state of ignorance, egoistic, impure, restless, violent, hurtful, and suffering towards the liberation from all that.

Depending on the different states of the minds under different conditions, situations, limitations, and abilities, the journey to reach the final destination can be short or long, can be easy or hard, can be smooth or challenging, can be straightforward or manipulated, can be simplified or complicated, can be enjoyable or non-enjoyable and even painful, can be uplifting or intimidating, and can be disembarking or reembarking before reaching the final destination.

The final destination of embarking the journey on the path of yoga (the activation of conscious mind evolution) - Upon the silence of the restless impure egoistic modification of the mind/the thought current/the thinking process, the selfless timeless attributeless universal consciousness that is always there, that doesn't increase or decrease, that pervades all and everyone and everything, that is actionless and changeless, that is indiscriminate and unconditional, appears as it is.

Selflessness - There is NO permanent independent infinite immortal individual 'I'/individual existence/individual identity/individual consciousness/personal soul or spirit existing to be undergoing birth (forming) and death (disintegration) as well as the ceaseless impermanent changes (growth and decay) of this body and mind, where there is NO countless reincarnation of any particular permanent independent infinite immortal individual existence of 'I' that is non-existing, that doesn't exist, to be undergoing countless different separate births and deaths of different separate life existences of different bodies and minds transitioning under similar or in between different realms/worlds.

Timelessness - There is neither past nor future, there is only NOW that is ceaselessly changing. There is neither past existence(s) nor future existence(s). Existence, is only ALL THESE in NOW, that is ceaselessly changing. Impermanent changes of formation, growth, ceased growing, decay, and disintegration is ceaselessly happening in NOW.

The ceaseless movement/rotation of the earth or the planet around the sun, generate the interchanging of the presence and absence of light, and the interchanging cycle of the different seasons respectively, as well as the interchanging cycle of asleep and awake (regardless of sleeping or awaking under the presence or absence of light), that gives rise to the false impression of day and night, of the calculation and accumulation of time/seconds/minutes/hours/days/nights/weeks/months/years, or sleeps.

The formation, growing, ceased growing, and decaying process of the selfless physical structure, and the impermanent restless states of mind of countless thoughts/ideas/desires/feelings/emotions/sensations/memories/imaginations/actions/reactions ceaselessly arising and passing away at different pace/speed, that gives rise to the calculation and accumulation of age, experience, learning, understanding, knowledge, skill, interaction, activity, interest, relationship, duty, responsibility, inspiration, aspiration, ambition, action, fruit of action, imagination, planning, projection, and memory.

Time is merely the reflection of ceaseless impermanent changes, under different pace/speed, internally and externally, of both subject and object, of the perceiver and the perceived, of the knower and the knowledge, of the ceaseless process of generation, regeneration, degeneration, decay, and disintegration, and the conscious (voluntary), semi-conscious (semi-voluntary), and unconscious (autonomous/non-voluntary) physical/mental activities and movements under different speed of movements.

The remembrance towards all that or some of the impermanent changes or activities, generate the false impression of past, earlier, yesterday, and so on. While the forward planning/schedule for doing or expecting something that is not happening in NOW, generates the false impression of future, later, tomorrow, and so on.

The realization towards ceaseless impermanent changes of growth, ceased growing, decay, and disintegration in NOW, enables the mind to know that there is only NOW that is ceaselessly changing. In NOW, there is flashing of some memory. In NOW, there is some planning/anticipation/projection that is not happening in NOW. In NOW, all and everything is either ceased existing or disintegrated, or is forming, or is growing, or ceases growing, or is decaying, or is disintegrating.

The realization towards Selflessness enables the mind to know that there is neither past live(s) of different separate mortal limited existence(s) nor future live(s) of different separate mortal limited existence(s) a.k.a. ceaseless past/present/future reincarnations of any particular permanent independent infinite immortal individual being/consciousness/soul/spirit, that doesn't exist.

There is only this particular life existence of this particular body and mind that is selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, that doesn't even belong to the body and mind itself, that is ceaselessly changing undergoing different shapes, forms, qualities, states, or conditions in NOW, that is momentary existing and functioning, while ceaselessly changing/decaying/disintegrating, and eventually ceased functioning and existing, upon the selfless timeless attributeless universal consciousness that pervades all and everyone and everything, that gives rise to the different states of consciousness and the different degrees of conscious awareness to be interchanging between consciousness/wakefulness/activeness and semi-consciousness/unconsciousness/rest/idleness/sleep/dream/deep sleep/inputs processing to the conscious living organisms that come with the function/mechanism/ability of cognition/perception/memory storage/intellectual thought process of thinking, reasoning, learning, knowing, solution finding, and problem solving/emotion/sensation/action/reaction via the organs of senses (inputs) and the organs of action (outputs), to be attending/acquiring/maintaining the basic needs for the limited and conditional selfless impermanent life existence of the conscious living organisms, for being momentarily existing and functioning selflessly and impermanently as what they are.

If there is no existence or function of the perceptive cognitive thinking and acting mind perceiving the ceaseless selfless impermanent changes in the perceived names and forms, or under the absence of the restless thought current/thinking process/modification of the mind, or in SILENCE, devoid of thought(s) arising and passing away, or in PERMANENCE/changelessness/decaylessness/thoughtlessness/actionlessness/motionlessness, or in the attributeless nameless formless infinite endless space, or under the absence of all kinds of impermanent limited and conditional names and forms, what is time?

Ceaseless births and deaths (arising and passing away ) transitioning under different conditions/states (realms)/qualities exists within this particular body and mind in NOW, that is nothing to do with certain worldly egoistic cultural/spiritual/religious ideas, beliefs, values, and practices about the ceaseless reincarnation of a permanent independent infinite immortal individual existence reincarnating in different separate life existences transitioning in between different realms/worlds, but it is merely reflecting about the ceaseless impermanent changes of growth and decay, of ceaseless births and deaths of countless cells generation/regeneration/degeneration for maintaining the limited and conditional selfless impermanent life existence and function of the physical structure of the living organisms, as well as the countless thoughts/ideas/desires/feelings/emotions/sensations/memories/imaginations ceaselessly arising, changing, and passing away, consciously/semi-consciously/unconsciously, transitioning under different conditions of the physical structure and in between different states of mind (different realms), that is ceaselessly happening from the beginning of formation until the disintegration or death of this body and mind.

In NOW, the selfless mind is undergoing different states of mind (transitioning between different realms), that is all happening HERE in the mind that is interchanging in between the different states of consciousness (conscious (wakeful)/semi-conscious (sleep/dream)/unconscious (deep sleep/coma)), of countless thought(s) arising, changing, and passing away upon (under the witness of) the selfless timeless attributeless universal consciousness (the all time silent witness).

In NOW, the selfless mind is resting in silence/stillness/thoughtlessness (devoid of countless births and deaths/arising and passing away of restless thought current/process/activity), transcending the different impermanent states of mind (different realms) that are formed by the selfless impermanent limited and conditional thought current/process/activity.

The different realms (different states of mind under different states of consciousness) as well as Silence/Nirvana/Nibhana/Stillness/Turiya/The cessation of the restless modification of the mind (Exiting/Transcending the different realms/states of mind) are all happening in HERE and NOW, all these don't exist or happen outside (not here) or beyond (not NOW) the selfless existence and function of the mind.

Yoga and the yoga practice, is all about the selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence and function of the mind and the annihilation/cessation/conquest of the restless impure egoistic modification of the mind (the veil of ignorance).

All these are nothing to do with 'worldly egoistic cultural/spiritual/religious ideas/beliefs/values/practices', or 'spirituality', or 'divinity', or 'mystics', or 'miracle', or 'superpower', or 'superstition', or 'individual soul', or 'the creator of the universe', or 'sin', or 'good and bad karma', or 'merit and virtue', or 'downfall', or 'reincarnation', or 'endless births and deaths in countless different separate life existences', or 'vegetarianism', or 'veganism', or 'clean eating', or 'demonstration of the different yoga asana poses or meditation postures', or 'optimum health and fitness condition', or 'longevity', or 'positive thinking', or 'optimism', or 'hope', or 'rebelliousness', or 'international yoga day', or 'international yoga association/alliance', or 'yoga teachers training course', or 'yoga qualification and certification'.

Attributelessness - Oneness/Non-separateness/Non-duality, where all kinds of names and forms (living organisms and non-living objects) under different qualities/shapes/characteristics/conditions/functionalities are existing and functioning as what they are, under the one same nature of selflessness, impermanence, limitation, conditional, and non-self, governed by the selfless indiscriminate nature's law of cause and effect, ceaselessly manifesting, arising, changing, and passing away upon the selfless timeless attributeless universal consciousness, that is undetermined, undisturbed, unchanged, undamaged, or uncontaminated by the selfless impermanent limited and conditional ceaseless manifestation of countless momentary diverse names and forms being what they are, as they are, ceaselessly coming and going/appearing and disappearing/existing and ceased existing.

Under the influence of the veil of ignorance, the mind is ignorant towards (cannot perceive or comprehend) Selflessness, Timelessness, and Attributelessness.

All these terms are known and understood by the mind naturally, upon Silence of the mind or Clarity of the thinking faculty, a.k.a. the annihilation/cessation of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional egoistic impure restless modification of the mind/thought current/thought activity/thinking process, devoid of the veil of ignorance and the suffering deriving from being ignorant towards Selflessness, Timelessness, and Attributelessness.

Yoga can also appear to be anything manifesting under different shapes under different qualities of names and forms that the different minds want/desire/imagine/think/believe/label/identify/acknowledge it to be, depending on the different states of the different minds.

Even though yoga and the yoga practice is about conquering the mind by the mind itself to know Thyself, or knowing the truth of all these that the mind perceives/experiences consciously/semi-consciously/unconsciously, where yoga and the yoga practice is merely what it is, neither useful nor useless, neither spiritual nor non-spiritual, but it can appear to be something useful or useless, something spiritual or non-spiritual for the different minds under different conditions, situations, limitations, and abilities. 

Before the truth of things that is always there, is unveiled upon the annihilation of the veil of ignorance, then yoga and the yoga practice can appear to be something spiritual for the minds that are being conditioned to believe in spirituality and god existence. While yoga and the yoga practice can appear to be something non-spiritual for the minds that don't believe in spirituality and god existence.

Regardless of whether it appears to be something spiritual or non-spiritual, it is about engaging the mind in conscious mind evolution that leads towards the direct self realization or glimpse towards the truth of everything under the absence of the veil of ignorance via its own initiation and effort, observation and inquiry, determination and perseverance, independently.

Upon the direct experience/glimpse towards Selflessness, Timelessness, and Attributelessness (All are ONE under different names and forms), the mind will know that the manifestation or existence of yoga and the yoga practice is merely a direction (towards the annihilation of the veil of ignorance) and a set of different tools that can help the mind to move (evolve) towards that particular direction. It doesn't matter, when different minds refer that direction differently with many different names and forms.

There is no north/south/east/west/up/down/left/right in this infinite space that doesn't increase or decrease, regardless of where we are, what is up for some, is down for some, or what is left for some, is right for some. There is only HERE and NOW, in this mind. All and everything is happening in this mind that is always HERE and in NOW.

The entire journey (long or short), the path (easy or difficult), and the final destination (the realization/the correct understanding/the clarity/the liberation/the freedom/the knowledge/the peace), is all in the mind, in NOW. It is not somewhere else beyond the mind and NOW.

Even when some minds didn't understand or misunderstood the teachings of yoga and the yoga practice, thinking and believing that in order to portray or achieve stillness and forbearance as well as 'yoga asana' about holding a particular body position for a prolonged duration comfortably, is about challenging the body and mind to go beyond its limitation, or to go against nature, by putting the body, or the limbs, or the facial features in one particular position for a prolonged duration, such as standing on one foot, or not blinking or not closing the eye lids, or not lying down maintaining an upright sitting or standing position, or not sleeping, or not eating, or not breathing, or hanging the body upside down, or raising one or both arm(s) upward above the head and maintaining such position for prolonged duration, or even provoke others to inflict abusive hurtful torturing behavior unto oneself intentionally under the name of 'repent' or 'removing sins' or 'burning-off bad karma', until the body and mind suffers from unnecessary deformity, or injury, or damage, or dysfunction, or even ceased functioning, which doesn't eliminate ignorance at all but empowers ignorance, unless after performing such activity that has no end of challenging difficulty by continuously forcing, harming, or torturing the body and mind, until the body and mind ceased functioning and existing, they might begin to realize the middle path and the real meanings of yoga and the yoga practice, and make use of the momentary life existence and function of the body and mind to be performing selfless service to serve all and everyone, to be doing something beneficial/constructive for oneself and others and the surrounding environment.

The yoga practice is always HERE in NOW, upon the activation of non-grasping, upon the perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting faculty is being aware of (coming in contact with) the different names and forms that are ceaselessly manifesting internally and externally, regardless of in action/activeness or in inaction/at rest/idleness, under the different states of consciousness.

Yoga and the yoga practice is non-separated from life existence in all kinds of affairs, duties and responsibilities, ties and connections, relationships, interactions, activities, experiences, conditions, and situations, where the mind is being aware of all that, while consciously activating/performing different kinds of physical and mental practice, or method, or technique, or observation, or influence, that can influence or render the restless impure egoistic state of mind to be calmed and quiet (the thinning-out and annihilation of the veil of ignorance - the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness), that enables the mind to know Thyself, or knowing the momentary mortal limited and conditional impermanent non-independent selfless existence and function of itself, that is not different from all kinds of diverse names and forms, where all are selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, which then, enables the mind to see the truth beyond the different qualities of names and forms, of non-duality/non-separateness/oneness/attributelessness/timelessness/selflessness (All are one under different names and forms).

The selfless universal consciousness is merely the actionless changeless timeless indiscriminate unconditional unlimited silent witness, while the many different individual existence and function of the many different individual conscious/sentient and non-conscious/non-sentient living organisms come with the function to perform actions via the organs of action for life maintenance and some other activities.

By knowing Thyself, or knowing the truth of names and forms, upon clarity devoid of the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness, will enable the selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence and function of the body and mind to be able to perform beneficial action to look after itself and the surrounding living environment selflessly and independently under the presence of correct understanding, or under the absence of ignorance, or under the presence of unconditional peace in the mind, that contributes peace and harmony among the many diversities in the surrounding living environment that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, that selflessly and indiscriminately supporting all kinds of names and forms to be existing and functioning as what they are.

Yoga and the yoga practice, or the conscious action/observation/practice/influence/evolution, of non-grasping and letting go, or standing as a silent witness, while performing or not performing all kinds of actions or activities, can only be happening, or being what it is, only if it is being activated under the conscious freewill/initiative/yearning towards liberation/effort coming from the mind itself, willingly and wittingly to free itself from the influence of ignorance, to be purifying and quieting itself, to develop/inquire/attain correct understanding, and to realize and be resting in unconditional peace upon the selfless timeless attributeless universal consciousness, upon realizing/knowing/seeing/understanding the truth of all kinds of diverse names and forms existing under different qualities manifesting and changing under the one same nature of Selflessness, Impermanence, Limitation, Conditional, and Non-self, governed by the nature's law of cause and effect.

Yoga and the yoga practice exists and is valid/useful for the conscious perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional self-acknowledged thinking and acting minds operating/functioning UNDER the influence of ignorance, that gives rise to all kinds of suffering/disturbance/disharmony/restlessness/violence/painful sorrow/grief/fear/doubt/selfishness/possessiveness/greed/anger/hatred/pride/shame/jealousy/envy/longing/craving/clinging/hypocrisy/untruthfulness/manipulation/intimidation/offensiveness/defensiveness/interference/the urge to control everything to be or not to be in certain way, a.k.a. the absence of peace/wisdom/correct understanding/clarity/absolute knowledge.

If the mind is peaceful as it is, unconditionally, devoid of ignorance, being undisturbed or undetermined by the mind perception towards all kinds of pleasant and unpleasant/agreeable and disagreeable/desirable and undesirable/enjoyable and non-enjoyable names and forms, or the presence and absence of all kinds of names and forms being what they are, internally within the body and mind and externally in the surrounding living environment, then yoga and the yoga practice doesn't exist, or is invalid/useless for this mind.

Such mind is one with yoga or non-separated from yoga, a.k.a. the mind is resting in silence upon the selfless timeless attributeless universal consciousness that is untouched or uncontaminated by any qualities of names and forms that are all selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, of the subject and object, or the perceiver and the perceived, or the knower and the knowledge, or the experiencer and the experience (all are one under different names and forms).

As long as the mind still perceives, or experiences, or acknowledges any kind of disturb, hurt, dissatisfaction, disappointment, fear, separateness, duality of good and bad/right and wrong/positive and negative/superiority and inferiority, unrest, lack of freedom, doubt, insecurity, grief, painful sorrow, difficulty, blockage, meaninglessness, loneliness, or any kind of suffering due to the presence of ignorance, or the absence of correct understanding/wisdom/clarity, then yoga and the yoga practice is available/accessible, naturally, in NOW, for the mind to evolve consciously towards liberation, freedom, knowledge, and peace.

Inquire the truth of everything.

Do not blind-believe, blind-follow, blind-practice, blind-agree/disagree, blind-glorify, or blind-propagate.

Including all the teachings here. 

The minds that understand all these, they don't have to, but if they want, and if there is the opportunity and possibility, they can perform many actions in this world selflessly, indiscriminately, and unconditionally, to help many other minds to also be free from the influence of ignorance out of their own conscious freewill/initiative/yearning towards liberation/effort.

These minds are the teachers of dhamma, or the selfless wise leaders that don't only lead and organize a group of followers that are in need of a leader to lead them, to comfort them, to motivate them, to organize them to be or not to be in certain way, but who have the knowledge, ability, possibility, and opportunity to teach and guide all and everyone to be free from ignorance and become independent, and will no longer in need of any leader to lead them, under the presence of wisdom, or correct understanding, or clarity, or mental and emotional independence, a.k.a. under the absence of ignorance and the by-products of ignorance.

Yoga, or the dhamma, or the truth of what all and everything are, is never separated from all and everything. And it doesn't change into something else, even if the many different minds see/understand/desire/modify/manipulate it differently under the different states of mind.

The different level and intensity in the yoga practice or the yoga class

The different level or intensity in the yoga practice, regardless of whether it is in one's self practice, or in the yoga class under the instruction of a teacher, regardless of whether it is individual class or group class under specific level/intensity/style/lineage, is for the minds or the yoga practitioners to develop correct understanding and mental and emotional independence, at their own pace.

The yoga practice, or the yoga class, or the different positions or movements, is just what it is. It is neither beginner/easy nor intermediate/moderate nor advanced/intense or difficult.

It is not about following a particular set of practice/routine/yoga poses/movements in particular order and timing rigidly, or be able to do everything or perform the complete set of routine/poses/movements in every practice, or in the yoga class.

It is about do what is needed by the body and mind, and do what is possible, in the present moment NOW, in accordance to the current physical and mental condition, ability, and limitation, that is impermanent and non-self, without forcing or hurting the body and mind, while performing the yoga practice, in every practice or in the yoga class.

It is never about blind-following or blind-practicing regardless of the current condition or situation in the body and mind, and/or in the surrounding environment.

The yoga practice is existing for the conscious perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting mind to develop the awareness and understanding towards what is happening in the body and mind as well as in the surrounding environment, or in the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, while be able to make necessary adjustment in oneself, to adapt and accommodate the current condition and situation in the body and mind and in the surrounding environment, regardless of whether agreeable or disagreeable, desirable or undesirable, and pleasant or unpleasant, without being determined or disturbed by all THAT that are all selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

There is absence of possessiveness and control towards the selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence and function of the body and mind, or the surrounding environment, to be or not to be in certain way, in accordance to one's desire and don't desire, while just do one's best to perform conscious actions under the presence of correct understanding for maintaining the condition of the body and mind and the surrounding environment up to a certain extend or limitation, that is beneficial or supportive towards all and everyone and everything, selflessly, independently, and indiscriminately, devoid of grasping, or the idea of 'I' and egoism.

If all minds have the correct understanding and mental and emotional independence, there is needless of the existence of yoga class or yoga practice, especially separating/discriminating the yoga practitioners and the yoga class and yoga practice into different levels/intensity/styles/teachers/lineages/paths, because the main objective of yoga is about be able to be co-existing or living in peace and harmony among the many diversities under the presence of correct understanding, that give rise to respect, adjustment, adaptation, and accommodation among the many diversities, as well as realizing the truth of selflessness, impermanence, limitation, conditional, and non-self in all kinds of names and forms in the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, upon the annihilation of the veil of ignorance.

That mental development of correct understanding and mental and emotional independence can be developed and achieved while performing one's own self practice in solitude and silence, being aware of the selfless impermanent condition, ability, and limitation of the body and mind that is conditional and non-self, realizing the truth of diversity within the body and mind that enabling the body and mind to be existing and functioning as what it is, but even more so, while participating in an individual yoga class under the specific practice and instruction of a yoga teacher or many different yoga teachers, especially in the non-separate all levels group yoga class with many different bodies and different minds under different impermanent conditions, abilities, and limitations being present in the same class, learning and doing the same practice, while learning how to make necessary adjustment to adapt and accommodate the yoga practice or the yoga class that is not necessary exactly the way that each and everyone desires it to be, where all and everyone has their own particular physical and mental condition, ability, and limitation, and might prefer the yoga practice or the yoga class to be more or less easy/moderate/intense/slow/fast/relaxing/stimulating/challenging.

Instead of trying to possess, or control, or desire, or expect the yoga practice or the yoga class and the surrounding environment of many others to be exactly the way that one desires and doesn't desire, to accommodate one's own particular condition, ability, and limitation, one constantly makes necessary adjustment to adapt and accommodate the yoga practice or the yoga class being what it is, without forcing or hurting oneself, while respects and accommodates the surrounding environment of the many different others of the many different diversities with the many different desires and don't desires under the many different conditions, abilities, and limitations, being what they are, as they are, without forcing or hurting others and the surrounding environment.

The entire yoga practice is about the elimination of the idea of 'I'/the ego and egoism, or the veil of ignorance, or the development of non-grasping, or non-attachment, non-identification, non-craving, non-aversion, non-comparison, non-judgment, non-expectation, non-forcing, or non-violence.

It is about developing the correct understanding not only for making necessary adjustment to adapt and accommodate the different impermanent condition, ability, and limitation of the body and mind, and the different yoga practice or yoga class under different teachers, practitioners, intensity, style, condition, and situation, but even more so, to make necessary adjustment to adapt and accommodate the ever changing condition and situation in the surrounding living environment, and to respect and accommodate all kinds of diversities as they are, regardless of agreeable or disagreeable, to be co-existing in the surrounding environment that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

It is not about learning how to perform all kinds of different yoga asana poses, or exercises, or sets of routine in a particular order and timing, and be able to perform all those yoga asana poses, or exercises, or sets of routine, eventually and perfectly.

There is neither right nor wrong with the existence of the different separate yoga classes under different levels/intensity/teachers/styles as well.

Because there are many minds have certain physical and/or mental limitation or difficulty in developing such physical and mental development of correct understanding and self independence, and hence, there is the momentary existence of the different separate yoga classes and yoga practices under the name of beginner/intermediate/advanced level under different styles and intensity, to suit all the different bodies and different minds under different conditions, abilities, and limitations, to evolve physically and mentally at their own pace.

Once they developed certain degrees of correct understanding and the essential mental and emotional independence, where they have certain degrees of awareness and understanding towards the yoga practice and the current physical and mental condition, ability, and limitation, that they know what they can do and cannot do physically and/or mentally in the present moment, where they know how to make necessary adjustment by themselves, to adapt and accommodate the yoga practice or the yoga class in accordance to the current condition and situation of the body and mind as well as the surrounding environment, then they can either perform their own self practice in solitude and silence, or they can attend any kind of yoga class under any yoga teacher under any level/style/intensity, especially in the non-separate all levels group class.

As it is not only in the non-separate all levels group class, but even in the separate different levels and/or different intensity yoga classes, each and everyone also needs to make necessary adjustment in accordance to the current physical and mental condition, ability, and limitation, that is ever changing.

Everyone just do what they can do in the present moment, respecting the current physical and mental condition, ability, and limitation as it is, without forcing or hurting the body and mind, knowing when to continue, or go further, or take a break, or stop completely.

Knowing and respecting towards all these desirable and undesirable conditions, abilities, and limitations, are all impermanent and non-self.

Taking full responsibility towards all one's understanding and non-understanding, decision making, desires and don't desires, actions and inactions, and the consequences of all that.

The minds that understand, they can do their own self practice in solitude and silence, or they can attend any kind of yoga classes under any level/intensity/style/practice/teacher, by making necessary adjustment to adapt and accommodate the different condition and situation of oneself, the surrounding environment, or the other different yoga practitioners, or the different level/intensity/style/practice/exercise/movement/routine/teacher, without expecting or desiring the yoga class, or the yoga practice, or the yoga teachers, or the other yoga practitioners, or the level/intensity/style/practice/exercise/movement/routine to be or not to be in certain way.

For the minds that have developed certain degrees of correct understanding towards the basic teachings and practice of yoga, it is not only about knowing how to perform some or all of the yoga asana and pranayama, chanting and prayer, cleansing, concentration, and relaxation practice independently with maximum awareness/attentiveness, and having the correct understanding and respect towards their own current physical and mental condition, ability, and limitation, but even more so, it is about applying the essential practice of non-grasping, or non-attachment, non-identification, non-craving, non-aversion, non-comparison, non-judgment, and non-expectation in everyday life affair, upon performing all kinds of actions/duties/responsibilities in life and at rest or inaction.

There is no difference between beginner/easy practice and intermediate/moderate practice and advanced/intensive practice in the individual or group yoga class under the presence of a yoga teacher or different yoga teachers giving specific practice and instruction, or in one's own self practice in solitude and silence at home or anywhere, regardless of whether the yoga practice (as well as the dissemination or the study of the teachings/dhamma) might appear to be easy/gentle, or moderate/neither easy nor difficult, or intense/challenging for the different physical bodies in accordance to their current physical condition, ability (what it can do), and limitation (what it cannot do) in the present moment, as well as for the different minds in accordance to their current mental state/condition, ability (clarity/sharpness/quietness/openness and correct understanding), and limitation (murkiness/restlessness/disturbance/closed-mindedness and non-understanding).

It is just the practice.

Regardless of whether in the individual or group yoga class under the presence of a yoga teacher giving specific set of practice and instruction, or in one's own self practice in solitude and silence, everyone who have different physical and mental condition, ability, and limitation, know and understand about their own particular impermanent condition, ability, and limitation in the present moment now, and know how to make appropriate adjustment to adapt and accommodate the yoga class or the yoga practice being what it is, of knowing when to continue or take a break, or practice as much as it can comfortably, without forcing the body and mind beyond its ability and limitation during the entire class or practice, as well as in everyday life affair.

The yoga class or the yoga practice is just what it is, where it doesn't has the quality, or separation, or distinction of beginner/easy, or intermediate/moderate, or advanced/intensive.

Different bodies and/or different minds under different conditions, abilities, and limitations can attend the same class performing the same set of practice, but with their own adjustment making to adapt and accommodate the yoga practice or the yoga class in accordance to their own current physical and mental condition, ability, and limitation, at their own pace, at their own comfort.

The mind that understands, will only do what it can do or what is possible in the present moment now, while makes necessary adjustment and adaptation if there is a need to adjust, adapt, and accommodate.

They don't have to do everything, they don't have to be like the others, or they don't have to look the same like everyone else.

There is absence of craving, aversion, comparison, judgment, or expectation.

There is absence of the sense of superiority or inferiority, or the sense of accomplishment or failure, or the sense of high or low self esteem or confidence, or the sense of pride and shame, or the sense of annoyance, impatience, or intimidation, or the urge to control or interfere.

The yoga practitioner is not being annoyed or intimidated by the yoga class, or the yoga practice being what it is, that appears to be too easy/gentle, or just nice, or too challenging/intense for the current condition, ability, and limitation of the body and mind.

It is not being annoyed by the other yoga practitioners that appear to be less strong and/or less flexible than oneself, or having certain physical and/or mental limitation that oneself doesn't have.

It is not being intimidated by the other yoga practitioners that appear to be more strong and/or more flexible than oneself, or having certain physical and/or mental ability that oneself doesn't have.

Instead, being surrounded by all kinds of diversities while performing the yoga practice or attending the yoga class, the mind develops correct understanding, respect, and accommodation towards the world of countless diversities under the many different qualities of names and forms/conditions/situations/abilities/disabilities/limitations, that are all momentary existing and functioning in this space that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, where it learns and understands that all and everything are selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, while performing the yoga practice either in the individual or group yoga class under the specific practice and instruction of a teacher, or in the self practice by oneself alone in solitude and silence without following the specific practice and instruction of any other.

It respects the body and mind as it is, not necessarily the way that it desires. It doesn't desire to possess or control the body and mind to be or not to be in certain way.

It respects others and everything in the world of diversity as they are, not necessarily the way that it desires, or the way that it can agree with. It doesn't desire to possess or control all and everything or the surrounding environment to be or not to be in certain way.

It is not being annoyed by the others, or it doesn't intimidate/bully/exploit/look down the others who have less strength/forbearance/adaptability/understanding/knowledge/talent/skill/experience/opportunity/achievement than oneself, or who have certain limitation that oneself doesn't have.

It is not being intimidated by the others, or it doesn't have fear/jealousy/admiration/imitation towards the others who have more strength/forbearance/adaptability/understanding/knowledge/talent/skill/experience/opportunity/achievement than oneself, or who have certain ability that oneself doesn't have.

However, as long as the minds still haven't developed the basic essential ability, knowledge, and understanding towards all that,

where they aren't aware, or don't know, or don't understand towards their own current physical and mental condition, ability, and limitation,

or they don't know what is non-grasping, or non-attachment, non-identification, non-craving, non-aversion, non-comparison, non-judgment, and non-expectation,

or they don't know how to make necessary appropriate adjustment to adapt and accommodate the yoga class or the yoga practice in accordance to the current physical and mental condition, ability, and limitation, that they don't know what they can do or cannot do, where they don't know when to go a little further or when to take a break, without hurting the body and mind,

or they don't want and don't know how to accept and respect the body and mind in the present moment now as it is,

or they don't know what is non-forcing or non-violence without hurting the body and mind, without forcing the body and mind beyond its ability and limitation,

or they haven't developed certain degrees of mental and emotional independence, where they don't know what to do or how to act, if without following the instruction of some others, that they need to rely on a leader or a teacher to tell them do this and don't do that, or to make decision of whether to perform or not performing certain actions, and that they haven't know how to take full responsibility towards everything about themselves and their desires and don't desires, or their actions, reactions, and inactions, and the consequences of all that, by themselves,

or they don't have the self initiation, or motivation, or discipline, or self management to perform they own self practice in solitude and silence, where they need to follow the instructions of some others, and that they need to be noticed, accompanied, acknowledged, recognized, approved, complimented, and motivated by some others, and etc,

if so, the existence of the different separate yoga practice or yoga class under different level/teacher/intensity/style to suit their particular limitation can help in the beginning, but that must also be engaged with the development of correct understanding and mental and emotional independence, or else, the minds won't evolve at all towards better understanding and independence, even after performing the yoga practice or attending the yoga classes regularly for many years, and be able to do all kinds of yoga asana poses, or exercises, perfectly and comfortably, while enjoying the many momentary physical and mental benefits or side-effects of the regular yoga practice.

The mind that doesn't develop and/or have the correct understanding, even after having been attending yoga classes and performing yoga practice for many years regularly, and gaining many types of momentary benefits from the regular yoga practice, but then, it still has the egoistic attachment and identification, comparison and judgment, desire and expectation, as well as separateness, discrimination, possessiveness, and control of, "I am a beginner/intermediate/advanced level yoga practitioner, and my body and mind is suitable for easy/moderate/intense yoga practice or yoga class," as well as, "This yoga class or yoga practice of specific level/intensity, is only for me and/or people like me. All the others on different levels of different condition, ability, and limitation, shouldn't be in this yoga class with me and/or people like me, or doing this yoga practice together with me and/or people like me."

This is reflecting directly about the world of many diversities, of the many diverse different minds, of different mentality and personality or states of mind, of different backgrounds and ancestries, of different ways of thinking and belief/disbelief, of different cultural/spiritual/religious/family/communal/regional/national beliefs, values, and practice, of different understanding and desires/don't desires, of different likes and dislikes or agreements and disagreements, of different aspirations and visions, of different behaviors/actions/reactions, and etc, in the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

The many minds in the world of human beings that don't have the correct understanding, they have the egoistic attachment and identification, comparison and judgment, desire and expectation, as well as separateness, discrimination, possessiveness, and control of, "I am from here. My family is from here. My community is from here. This is our land, our home, and our country. This land and this country is only for me, my family, and my community. We have the rights to be here. All the others who are not one of us, they are the outsiders or foreigners, they don't have the rights to be here."

Just like most animals have the basic instinct of marking their own territory, being possessive towards the surrounding environment and community.

The mind of human beings functioning under the influence of ignorance, also think and believe that they are just like all kinds of animals, human beings are also one kind of animal, and so, it is normal and inevitable to have this type of thinking and behavior pattern.

Nope. No doubt that human beings are also one kind of animal, but the world of human beings doesn't need to be like that, at all.

If (only) they want, human beings can evolve consciously to be free from being conditioned by such basic instinct. However, under the influence of ignorance, the idea of 'I', and egoism, most minds not only aren't initiated, or are reluctant/rejecting to evolve consciously to transcend such basic instinct that hurt themselves and others and the surrounding environment, but in order for them to gain the power of possession, control, and influence towards all the others in order to achieve their particular desires/aspirations/visions/agendas, they deliberately hinder or suppress the conscious evolution or development of all the others towards correct understanding and mental and emotional independence, as they will be loosing the power of possession, control, or influence towards the others, if all the others evolve consciously and developed correct understanding and mental and emotional independence, as all the others that are mentally and emotionally independent won't be intimidated, or lured, or influenced, or controlled by them or any others.

Even in the world of animals, they can also evolve consciously, and have stronger cognition (the capability to learn and evolve or to improve and understand), independence, contentment, self control, discipline, restraint, patience, perseverance, determination, forbearance, adjustment, adaptation, accommodation, generosity, and kindness than many human beings that are so smart and intelligent that they can give themselves many excuses, or justifications, or stories telling/lies, for being ignorant and continuously empowering ignorance in oneself and others.

All and everyone need to take their own pace and effort to evolve consciously towards correct understanding and mental and emotional independence.

All and everyone need to learn how to live in peace and harmony with respect and accommodation among all kinds of diversities, devoid of the urge or desire to possess, control, influence, interfere, intimidate, manipulate, exploit, over-power, or hurt one another.

The learning and practicing of yoga among the many diversities in the non-separate all levels yoga class, enables the minds to understand and respect the world of many diversities, directly and effectively, of knowing how to live in peace and harmony among the many diversities, by making necessary appropriate adjustment in oneself to adapt and accommodate (to respect) the different diversities, conditions, and situations in the world that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, devoid of fear, selfishness, possessiveness, intimidation, discrimination, exploitation, interference, influence, manipulation, control, hatred, or violence among one another.

The presence or absence of peace and harmony among the many different diversities depends on the presence or absence of correct understanding and mental and emotional independence in all the minds.

Diversity is the truth of everything. It is inevitable. It is why and how this world is existing and functioning as what it is.

It exists in every single existence, in every single name and form, in every single living organism and non-living object, for all and everything to be what they are, as they are, selflessly, impermanently, limitedly, conditionally, and momentary.

It exists not only in the world of many diversities of the many different bodies and different minds, of different families and different communities, of different living organisms and non-living objects, but it exists within one body and mind, within a family, within a community, within a country, within a region, within any organization, even among clones, that are having the one same identical features or qualities, but they all have their own each selfless existence and function, that has their own particular cause and effect, their own selfless impermanent changes (conscious/voluntary and unconscious/involuntary evolution), and their own limitation and condition.

*Oneness or non-separateness or non-duality, doesn't mean non-diversity or uniformity or one single uniform identical identity, by disallowing, rejecting, and eliminating all kinds of different qualities of names and forms in the world of diversity to only allow or have one single uniform quality of name and form to be existing, where many minds would interpret oneness or non-separateness or non-duality in such way functioning under the influence of ignorance, especially the greedy ambitious prideful self-righteous minds/individuals/politicians/leaders that desire to conquer/possess/control not only the particular area/region/land/space/natural resources/community of where they are, but they also desire to conquer/possess/control all the other areas/regions/lands/space/natural resources/communities beyond where they are, where in truth, all and everyone and everything and everywhere in this world, in this space, doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

As long as any community still think and believe that, "We are from here. Our ancestors were from here. This is our land. This is our space. This is our country. This is our home. This is our pride. This is our belonging/possession. We belong here and here belongs to us. It is our duty and responsibility to protect our land, our space, our country, our home, and our pride from any outsiders/foreigners/the others that are not one of us. We have the rights to be here. Others who are not one of us don't have the rights to be here," then there will never be peace in oneself and the surrounding environment of many others, not even among the one single particular community of one particular uniform quality of name and form, as the minds in that one particular community are all functioning under the influence of ignorance, the idea of 'I', and egoism. There will always be conflict arising in oneself, not to say, among the relationship with another, the family, the sibling, or the entire community, due to the minds are functioning under the influence of ignorance, the idea of 'I', and egoism.

There is nothing wrong with there are many different communities or countries with their own particular leader(s) of the particular country/area/region/community in the world that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, just like the existence of any company with many different departments requires one or few or many manager(s) to manage or organize or facilitate everything for the company to be running and functioning as what it is, but it is highly important for all the leaders/managers/organizers/facilitators/public servants/teachers/educators/parents/caretakers in any country/area/region/community/family, that they must free themselves from the influence of ignorance, the idea of 'I', and egoism, then only they can help everyone in the particular country/area/region/community/family to also be free from the influence of ignorance, a.k.a. the conscious development of correct understanding and mental and emotional independence, where none desires to intimidate/possess/control/exploit/hurt anyone or anything. Then, peace will manifest naturally and effortlessly.

It is a very simple understanding about the highly importance of the conscious development of independence.

Having some managers to manage or facilitate everything in the company, but if the staff are not independent, where they cannot perform their duty independently and efficiently, where all kinds of problems will keep building up until the company will collapse eventually.

If out of possessiveness and control, the parents never guide, or teach, or allow the children to become physically, mentally, and emotionally independent, then all kinds of problems will keep building up, and all and everyone in the family will suffer, especially when the parents are becoming older and weaker.

Similarly, having one or few leader(s) to lead/control/regulate/manage the country, but if the community are lack of correct understanding and are not mentally and emotionally independent, where all kinds of problems will keep building up, from within oneself to the surrounding environment, from personal to family to community, until the country will collapse eventually.

Selfish ambitious egoistic leaders/politicians of any country, that try to hinder or suppress the development of correct understanding and mental and emotional independence in the community in order to gain and maintain the power of control/authority for achieving all their own boundless selfish desires/aspirations/visions/agendas, to create or build a world in accordance to their particular desire and don't desire, will eventually be 'eaten' by their own deeds/creations.

If not all, but if most minds in the world of many diversities are free from the influence of ignorance and egoism, where they have correct understanding and respect towards the truth of diversity, selflessness, impermanence, limitation, conditional, and non-self, where they are mentally and emotionally independence, where they know what are constructive/beneficial and what are destructive/hurtful towards all and everything in the world of diversity that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, then the world of all kinds of diverse individuals under diverse communities doesn't need any kind of leadership or leader, not to say, there is needless of egoistic politics and selfish politicians that benefit only oneself and/or one's particular family, or community, or organization, while discriminating, exploiting, intimidating, bullying, and hurting all and everything as much as possible.

If the minds are free from the influence of ignorance, devoid of the idea of 'I' and egoism, they are free from all kinds of attachment and identification, desires of craving and aversion, comparison and expectation, the sense of superiority and inferiority, pride and shame, discrimination, violence, fear, hatred, selfishness, greed, envy, and possessiveness, they will know how to respect all kinds of diversities as they are, without the desire to possess, or control, or manipulate, or interfere all and everything to be or not to be in certain way, where they don't intimidate or influence anyone, and they can never be intimidated or influenced by anyone or anything, then naturally and effortlessly, there will be peace and harmony in the world of diversity that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

The world of egoistic politics is indeed the creation of the minds functioning under the influence of ignorance and egoism, where the egoistic minds are being over-powered by their own restless egoistic impure modification of the mind (the veil of ignorance), of all kinds of attachment and identity, the desires of craving and aversion, the sense of superiority and inferiority, pride and shame, discrimination, violence, fear, hatred, selfishness, greed, envy, self-righteousness, and possessiveness, and hence, they desire to possess, influence, or control all and everything to be and not to be in certain way via egoistic politics of hypocrisy/story telling/lies/slanders/threats/temptations/force/violence, by taking advantage of the existing condition and situation, where there are many minds are being conditioned or influenced and empowered by the selfish minds to be kept functioning under the influence of ignorance and egoism deliberately, to hinder the healthy development of clarity and correct understanding, to be mentally and emotionally inter-dependent, where they are being conditioned to think and believe that they need to rely on the existence of leadership or leader to guide them, to think and decide for them, and to regulate and manage everything about themselves and their life existence in certain way or not in certain way, so that all these selfish egoistic politicians can gain the power of control, influence, manipulation, regulation, leadership, and authorization, in order to achieve all their ambitious selfish ideas/desires/aspirations/visions/agendas.

The particular community is being told, or being conditioned to think and believe that they can never be independent, that they need to depend on the existence of leadership or leader for that particular community.

The diverse communities are being told, or being conditioned to think and believe that they can never be independent, that they need to depend on the existence of leadership or leader for all the diverse communities.

The individuals are being told, or being conditioned by the others in their particular community that they can never be independent, that they need to depend on each other in their particular community.

All and everyone are being told, or being conditioned by some others that they need to be patriotic towards their family, their community, their country, their origin/ancestry, and their culture and spirituality or religion. That it is their duty and responsibility to look after and protect their family, their community, their country, their origin/ancestry, and their culture and spirituality or religion, or what they have been told or conditioned to think and believe that it is their identity, of who they are, and who/what/where they belong to, and that belonged to them.

But, that common idea, or understanding, or values and practice of empowering the sense of duty and responsibility of any particular personal and group identity, nationalism, patriotism, gangsterism, sense of belonging, possessiveness, self-protectiveness, pride, and self-righteousness, that exists among the many egoistic minds, not just doesn't help to have peace and harmony, but inflict and empower unrest and disharmony in the world of many diversities, where the basis or the essential of existence, a.k.a. the peace and harmony or the supportive healthy environment among the many diversities, is selfless compassion, or selfless actions/functions, that is nothing to do with egoistic personal/family/communal/national/ancestral/cultural/spiritual/religious duty and responsibility, or patriotism and protectiveness towards one's own particular personal and communal attachment and identification of certain qualities of names and forms.

All and everyone are existing and functioning under the selfless support of the selfless energy and elements, as well as the selfless intentionless indiscriminate inter-support among one another under the presence of self independence in all and everyone, where all and everyone carry out their own respective function/duty being what they are, independently, selflessly, and efficiently, without the intention to support/influence/change/control/intimidate/interfere with any others, but naturally, by carrying out one's respective function/duty independently and efficiently, will also be inter-supporting the existence and function of one another, selflessly, indiscriminately, unconditionally, and intentionlessly.

Every single cell in the physical body doesn't have the sense of duty and responsibility, or patriotism, or the intention to benefit or hurt anyone or anything, but under the presence of selfless compassion or selfless actions, each cells are carrying out their own respective function/duty to be existing and functioning as what they are, that is forming and supporting the entire physical body operating under different bodily systems/mechanisms/functions/components to be existing and functioning selflessly as what all and everything are.

If egoism, or egoistic politics, exists in every single cell that selflessly forming the diverse systems/mechanisms/functions/components of the physical body for it to be existing and functioning as what it is, the physical body cannot exist at all, not to say, to function as what it is.

This is the same as what has been happening in the world of human beings.

There is no egoism exists in every single cell that formed the entire physical structure of diversity, of many different components/systems/mechanisms/functions, for life existence and maintenance of life existence of the body and mind to be what it is, but there is this "ego (the idea of 'I') and egoism that doesn't need to be there at all" in the form of idea/thought/thinking/belief/value, existing in the thinking and acting mind, that derived from ignorance and being empowered or fed by ignorance, that keep hurting oneself and others and the surrounding environment.

The world of diversities doesn't need egoism to be existing and functioning, not to say, it doesn't need to be run by egoistic politics.

Egoism, or egoistic politics, or egoistic ideas/beliefs/values/practices, is what hinder the presence of peace and harmony among the many diversities, that inflicts and promotes all kinds of selfishness, possessiveness, discrimination, exploitation, cruelty, fighting, killing, wars, fear, hatred, unrest, and violence.

The existence or the survival of egoistic politics cannot exist or survive as what it is, if under the presence of peace and harmony among the diversities. Because it will be out of business. There is no reason/excuse/cause for it to be existing or functioning as what it is, if all kinds of diversities are living in peace and harmony among one another under the presence of correct understanding, mental and emotional independence, respect and accommodation.

That is why the egoistic minds that are interested in engaging in egoistic politics to gain power of control/influence/authorization/regulation to be controlling/influencing/regulating/authorizing all and everything to be and not to be in certain way, in order to achieve all their ambitious selfish desires/aspirations/visions/agendas, they don't want the presence of peace and harmony among the diversities, they want (to inflict/provoke/generate) unrest, fear, discrimination, and hatred among the diversities. The more unrest, fear, discrimination, and hatred that exist among all and everyone, the better condition and situation or opportunity for all these selfish egoistic minds/politicians to achieve all their selfish agendas via egoistic politics.

Such is the ignorance of the world of human beings.

The world of human beings doesn't have to be like that.

The world of all kinds of diverse names and forms, or the selfless existence of all and everything in this space that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, doesn't need the existence of egoism, or egoistic politics, or leaderships, or leaders, to be existing and functioning as what all and everything are, but merely selflessly existing and functioning under the selfless support of the selfless energy and elements, while each and everyone selflessly inter-supporting each other under the presence of selfless compassion, or selfless actions/activities/functions, under each of their own particular background and location, learning and knowledge, skill and talent, interest and experience, ability and position, opportunity and possibility, under the presence of energy and mobility, without grasping, without forcing, without violence, without hurting oneself and others and the surrounding environment that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

The selfless existence of the body and mind also doesn't belong to the body and mind itself, not to say, the surrounding environment (the nature) that supports and enables the body and mind to be selflessly/impermanently/momentarily/limitedly/conditionally existing and functioning as what it is.

Inquire the truth of everything.

All and everyone have the selfless power of wisdom and compassion that selflessly and intentionlessly help the world to evolve towards peace and harmony, starting from within oneself.

All these practice, conscious mind evolution, conscious action taking, conscious yearning towards absolute knowledge and unconditional peace, and the liberation from ignorance/restlessness, is absolutely possible.

As long as the mind is still in doubt or confusion,

As long as the mind is still perceiving 'suffering', or 'lack of freedom', or 'lack of peace',

As long as the mind perceives/recognizes/feels/acknowledges pain, or sorrow, or suffering, or doubt, or fear, or the unknown, under the presence of conscious awareness and cognition (organs of perception/memory storage/knowledge/thought process/intellectual reasoning/understanding/emotion/desire) and mobility (organs of action and expression),

Never give up.

Keep practicing via the middle path, until the mind attains direct glimpse or self realization towards selflessness, impermanence, limitation, conditional, and non-self.

The practice will drop off by itself. 

There is neither suffering nor the end of suffering.

Doing something good for the world of ignorance, is extremely difficult and exhausting, if without non-grasping

In order to do something really good (constructive) for the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, effectively, it is inevitable to be getting involve in the world of politics, that is inevitably running the world of human beings, even if the mind knows and understands that there are many destructive minds with destructive ideas and conducts are existing in the world of politics.

The world of politics (to be gaining influential power of influence and control or authorization towards all and everything to be and not to be in certain way in accordance to one's desires and don't desires) is indeed the creation of the minds functioning under the influence of ignorance and egoism, being supported and given power by the minds that are also functioning under the influence of ignorance and egoism.

The many different types of politics (the many different political parties, or associations, or organizations, or authorities, or individuals), that exist under many different ideas/visions/aspirations/desires/agendas (the power of governance, or leadership, or influence to maintain certain 'order' in the family, or the relationship, or the community, or the world of diversity, to be complying with specific ideas/visions/aspirations/desires/agendas), is neither good nor bad.

Just like the existence of all kinds of tools, or educations, or advance technologies, or business, or economy (income generation and consumption), or money transaction (goods exchange), or good quality of living, or leisure activities and enjoyments, and etc, are neither god nor bad, it depends on the presence and absence of ignorance in the minds.

However, when the world of politics (the power of governance/leadership/influence/regulation/authorization) is run by the minds that are functioning under the influence of ignorance and egoism, that are full of destructive ideas/visions/aspirations/desires/agendas, then naturally, it appears to be something hurtful and destructive towards all and everything.

And if the world of politics is run by the minds that are free from the influence of ignorance and egoism, it can bring many constructive evolution or transition (experience, affair, happening, condition, situation, interaction, relationship that promotes peace and harmony) to the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

Just as schools and educations are neither good nor bad. It depends on whether the teachers who conduct the teachings and the available curriculum are functioning under the influence of ignorance and egoism, or not. Where the proper education taught by the selfless compassionate teachers that are free from the influence of ignorance and egoism can bring constructive changes individually, communally, and environmentally, and vice versa.

The difficulty, is that - 

The minds that are interested in the path of self realization to be free from the veil of ignorance, in order to realize unconditional peace in oneself, as well as having the good intention to be doing something good (constructive) for the world that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, that can promote peace and harmony among the many diversities that are momentarily sharing the space that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, will be naturally and/or eventually distancing themselves from the world of politics, as the engagement (without non-grasping) in the world of politics with the intention of doing something good (constructive) for the world of ignorance and egoism, is extremely difficult and exhausting, that not only hinders the process of the annihilation of the veil of ignorance, but empowers the veil of ignorance (the continuous disturbed restless state of mind) in oneself, due to continuously dealing with and hammering by all kinds of madness or destructive hurtful ideas and conducts/actions/reactions coming from the other minds (that oneself wants to help to be free from all those madness or destructive hurtful ideas and conducts), if under the presence of grasping, or the absence of non-grasping.

Meanwhile, the minds that are interested in politics, to be gaining or having the influential power/control/authorization/influence/possession/manipulation towards all and everything in the world that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, they are not interested in the path of self realization to be conquering one's own restless egoistic impure modification of the mind, to be free from the veil of ignorance, but merely interested in conquering and influencing and controlling all the other minds in order to achieve their own particular boundless ideas, desires, visions, aspirations, or agendas.

Such destructive hurtful thinking and behavior pattern exists in anywhere and everywhere, not only in the world of politics, but at all levels, in all fields, in all kinds of affairs, in family ties and connections, in relationships, in community, in social interactions and activities, at home, at school, at work place, in public area, in business, in non-profit charitable organization, in cultural, spiritual, and religious organization, and even within oneself alone without engaging with any others, and so on.

However, even if the minds are not interested in politics to be gaining or having the power/control/authorization/influence to be controlling/regulating/influencing anyone or anything, but merely want to be doing something really good (constructive) to the world of many diversities, to help to liberate the many ignorant egoistic minds from their own madness or destructive hurtful ideas and conducts, to promote peace and harmony among the world of diversity that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, these minds need to be 'utilizing' the existing world of politics, not for gaining power of control/authorization/influence, but merely to have the opportunity and possibility to introduce or initiate constructive ideas and changes into the world of ignorance and egoism that is running/functioning under the existing egoistic politics, effectively.

As most minds are functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance and egoism (both the leaders and the supporters/followers/members), where the world is inevitably running/functioning under the existing egoistic politics/governance/leadership/authorization, where majority of the human beings are not mentally and emotionally independent (being conditioned by the surrounding environment/the parents/the family/the community/the leaders/the cultures/the spirituality/the religious beliefs/the commercial values to be mentally and emotionally dependence), where they need to be motivated and acknowledged by something or some others, that they need to be somebody with specific identities and qualities, and that they need to depend on the existence of leadership of having some leaders to think and make decision for them and be responsible for the consequences of the decision making and action taking, or to organize and regulate their life existence, conducts, desires and don't desires, belief and disbelief, ways of thinking, ways of living, and activities.

But all these 'selfless and noble' actions through the engagement or involvement in the world of politics to bring 'constructive' changes into the world of ignorance and egoism, effectively, have to be done under the presence of non-grasping, or under the absence of grasping, or else, one will be hammered and drowned by the over-whelming continuous boundless madness or destructive hurtful ideas and conducts (ignorant actions and reactions) of the many minds that oneself wants to help to be free from all that.

Without the egoistic intention/desire/vision/ambition to change (by influence, or control, or manipulate, via temptation/reward and threat/fear (lies and story telling), with rules and regulations and prosecutions and punishments) the world to be a better place for all and everyone, but merely make use of the existing knowledge/talent/possibility/opportunity constructively, to be performing possible actions that might or might not help to bring constructive changes in the world, significantly or insignificantly, while allowing the fruit of action to be what it is.

Look after oneself before one can truly look after all the others, effectively.

Stay away from egoistic politics (the destructive power of hurtful ideas, activities, control, manipulation, and influence that promote mental and emotional dependence), when the mind is not free from the influence of ignorance and egoism - Not harming oneself and others.

Get involve in selfless politics (the constructive power of beneficial ideas, activities, supportive facilitation and selfless service, right education, and correct understanding that promote mental and emotional independence), when the mind is free from the influence of ignorance and egoism - Promoting wisdom and compassion or peace and harmony in oneself and others.

Turning a supposedly extremely difficult and unpleasant path into a path of wisdom and unconditional peace.

The light is just being what it is.

The light doesn't bend itself to illuminate every corner behind all kinds of obstacles.

The light doesn't enjoy or suffer regardless of whether it illuminates everywhere, or not.

But under the absence of obstacles or under the presence of reflective objects, the light illuminates everywhere, intentionlessly, indiscriminately, and unconditionally.

The light is always there, as it is. It is up to everyone to either move away from or remove the obstacles that hinders them from seeing the light, or not being in the dark.

Some prefer to be in the dark without the presence of light, and that is their freedom of choice and desire.

Without the existence of light, none can come in contact with or experience the light.

Without the presence of wisdom and peace, none can come in contact with or experience wisdom and peace.

Wisdom and peace exists in all and everyone regardless of whether they realize it, or not.

Be the selfless reflector of wisdom and peace, and let others whether to reflect upon and realize it, or not.

 

Go beyond the worldly egoistic conditional ancestral/cultural/spiritual/religious/communal/political/national/philosophical/commercial thinking and belief, values and practice, that give rise to and empower all kinds of dualities and all kinds of madness, of selfishness, possessiveness, sense of belonging and ownership, self-esteem and self-worth, superiority and inferiority, deserving and undeserving, hurtful ideas/desires/behaviors/actions/reactions, fear, greed, hypocrisy, control, manipulation, exploitation, cruelty, self-righteousness, and violence.

Be the selfless reflector of the truth of selflessness, or the dharma/dhamma.

Be the selfless reflector of all kinds of diversities (the many different qualities of names and forms), that allows the selfless minds to reflect and see themselves, or not.

Perform action, and let go.

Just give, and let go.

Just be kind, and let them be.

About Yoga

Know thyself. Everything is impermanent and selfless. There is no 'I'. There is no 'I am selfless'/'I am not selfless'. There is no 'I am hurt'/'I need to be healed from hurt'. Non-blind believing, non-blind following, non-blind practicing and non-blind propagating, but be open-minded to inquire the truth of everything. Be free. Be peaceful. Be happy.
