Taking responsibility towards the action, reaction, desire, and behavior of oneself

The very basic yoga practice or teachings of yoga that the students of yoga learn in the yoga class even before trying to learn about some basic yoga exercise or yoga asana and pranayama practice, is about taking full responsibility towards oneself, towards all the different impermanent states of mind, of the thinking, understanding, feelings, emotions, ideas, belief and values, likes and dislikes, agreements and disagreements, desires and don't desires, behaviors, actions, and reactions being generated through the body and mind, towards looking after oneself physically, mentally and/or emotionally, as well as towards making decision to be performing certain action/inaction, and to be active or take rest physically and/or mentally, in the present moment NOW accordingly, under the respective internal physical/mental and external environmental condition/situation/ability/disability/limitation/possibility/impossibility in the present moment NOW, that is impermanent, that is constantly changing.

Even though there is no infinite immortal individual self existence of 'I' existing in the selfless impermanent limited and conditional body and mind, but the selfless body and mind is indeed the one that is wittingly and/or unwittingly generating different countless cause after cause that give rise to respective different effects, deriving from certain behavior/action/reaction that are being generated under specific conscious desire/choice intentionally and/or under instinctive urge non-intentionally.

There is no infinite immortal individual self existence of 'I' that exists in the selfless body and mind to be responsible towards all the causes being generated by the selfless body and mind, while the selfless body and mind is responsible towards all the causes and effects that are being generated either wittingly (consciously by conscious choice and desire) or unwittingly (non-by choice unconsciously/instinctively/autonomously).

Regardless of whether wittingly or unwittingly, consciously or instinctively, intentionally or unintentionally, the body and mind is still the one that is responsible towards all its actions/reactions/behaviors being generated under conscious desires or instinctive urges of autonomous physical and mental activities being over-powered or conditioned by internal genetic inheritance or by external influential conditions.

There is sickness, or injury, or painful/unpleasant sensations in this body and mind, and this body and mind is undergoing this sickness, or injury, or painful/unpleasant sensations, while all the other bodies and minds are not undergoing all THAT, that is only happening in this particular body and mind, being perceived under the presence of the selfless conscious mind awareness of this particular mind.

Even when the mother can commiserate towards the painful physical and mental suffering that her child is suffering, and she herself is also being in a state of painful suffering upon seeing her child being in a state of physical and mental suffering, but she cannot replace the child or swap place with the child, to be the one who suffers the painful physical and mental suffering that the child is undergoing or suffering. She cannot take the medicine and receive the treatment, for her child to be recovering and become better. Her child has to take the medicine and receive the treatment to be recovering and become better.

It is the responsibility of the selfless perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting mind towards how it behaves, acts and reacts towards all and everything that it perceives/experiences/comes in contact with or doesn't come in contact with, as well as towards the consequences of all its behaviors, actions and reactions.

The minds that think and believe that there is completely no conscious freewill by choice to choose how to behave, act, and react under conscious awareness, where they think and believe that all behaviors, actions, and reactions are 'instinctively/autonomously/under the absence of conscious freewill' being influenced by the existing internal and/or external specific cause that leads to specific effect (that they think and believe as fixed, or non-modifiable), it is because they haven't attained direct self realization towards the truth of Thyself, or the selfless perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting mind, the mind stuff, the ego and egoism, the veil of ignorance, the selfless universal consciousness, the conscious mind awareness, the conscious mind evolution or the path of self inquiry and self realization, Selflessness, Impermanence, Limitation, Conditional, Non-self, Non-grasping, Silence, and Transcend, even if they have been accumulating all kinds of knowledge and information about all that coming from someone and somewhere, or under the help of innovative tools under advanced science and technology.

The mind that understands this, it is free, as it is.

It knows that its selfless impermanent states of mind, of happiness and unhappiness, peacefulness or peacelessness, doesn't need to be determined by whatever it perceives/experiences or doesn't perceive/experience internally and/or externally, regardless of whether the internal and/or external experiences/non-experiences/conditions/situations are pleasant or unpleasant, agreeable or disagreeable, desirable or undesirable, enjoyable or non-enjoyable.

The selfless impermanent restless modifications/states of mind, of all kinds of random thinking/thoughts/ideas/feelings/emotions that ceaselessly arising and passing away/coming and going, also cannot determine the ignorance free thinking and acting mind that knows what is non-grasping/non-attachment/non-identification/non-craving/non-aversion/non-comparison/non-judgment/non-expectation to be what it is, to be existing and functioning, to be performing action/inaction, without being determined by the selfless impermanent modifications/states of mind/mind stuff that is non-self, that doesn't belong to the selfless thinking and acting mind, not to say, all kinds of mind perception of names and forms being perceived through the senses via the sense organs, internally and/or externally.

It respects and doesn't restrict the freedom of thinking or not thinking, belief or disbelief, understanding or non-understanding, desire or don't desire, and the different types of behavior, action, and reaction of all the other minds being what they are, as they are, but all that and all kinds of pleasant or unpleasant, agreeable or disagreeable treatments coming from others unto itself, cannot determine itself to be happy and peaceful, or not.

Under the presence of conscious awareness on top of the presence of correct understanding, the ignorance free thinking and acting mind can choose how it behaves, acts, and reacts towards all and everything.

It doesn't need to control anything. It doesn't need to defy the nature's law of cause and effect being what it is. It doesn't need to defy or deny the natural process of decay and disintegration, or death. But it has the conscious awareness and correct understanding to be influencing the selfless impermanent changes in certain way in NOW, even if the body and mind is existing and functioning under certain inevitable restriction or limitation.

It doesn't need to stay there not moving away from any kind of natural disasters/hazards/dangers/risks/man made difficult and hurtful condition and situation, or ill treatments from others.

It doesn't need to argue with or fight against the ignorance of others.

It doesn't need to change or convince and convert others to be thinking, believing, understanding, desiring, behaving, acting, and reacting in certain way or not in certain way.

It may or may not do its best to help all the others to be free from the influence of ignorance, if there is the opportunity and possibility, without any obligation, and without egoism of attachment, identification, desire of craving and aversion, comparison, judgment, or expectation, allowing and respecting all and everyone to be what they are and what they are not, as they are, and to take their own pace under their own cause and effect, to be changing in certain way or not in certain way, or not.

That is what mental and emotional independence is about.

That is what the basic yoga and/or buddhism practice is about.

The mind that doesn't understand this, it thinks and believes that, "It is because of you and how you treat me, it is because of them and how they treat me, it is because of everyone and everything that had happened and that is happening to me, that is why I behave, act, and react like this and not like that, that is why I feel disturbed or pleased, meaningful or meaningless, that is why I am happy or unhappy, peaceful or not peaceful, and that is why I do this and not doing that, that is why I behave like this and not behaving like that." And more so, "It is because of my genes, that is why I am thinking, believing, reasoning, understanding, desiring, behaving, acting, and reacting like this and not like that," or even, "It's not my fault. Don't blame me for my bad behavior and ignorance. It's the responsibility of my bad genes inheritance inherited from my bad parental lineage."

It is true that a mango seed (the original cause) gives rise to a mango tree that gives mango flowers and fruits of mangoes, and it doesn't give rise to all other kinds of trees, flowers, and fruits that are not mango, however, the selfless impermanent changes from the seed being planted, to being nurtured, to be growing into a full blown matured tree that give rise to flowers and fruits, or not, are conditional, are not fixed. It depends on the availability and non-availability of certain environmental conditions, as well as the planter of seed/tree under the presence or absence of conscious awareness and understanding and effort that can influence the entire process of planting and nurturing that mango seed/tree/flowers/fruits.

The seed, the tree, the flowers, the fruits, the planter, or the environmental conditions, are all selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self. It doesn't mean that under the truth of selflessness, impermanence, limitation, conditional, and non-self, there are no conscious by choice activities deriving from the selfless thinking and acting minds functioning under certain ideas and understanding/non-understanding, that have the organs of actions to be performing all kinds of intentional and non-intentional activities under certain conscious desires/don't desires or aspirations in this world of diversity that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, that are impacting and influencing all and everything in certain way, selflessly, regardless of constructively or destructively.

If the mind has only one single opportunity of one single timing to be learning yoga and/or buddhism during its entire selfless impermanent limited and conditional life existence and function, is to be learning about taking full responsibility towards its selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence and function that is non-self, that doesn't even belong to itself.

If the mind truly knows how to take full responsibility towards itself, towards its selfless impermanent modification/state of mind, of all kinds of selfless impermanent conscious by choice or unconscious autonomous instinctive thought activities, ideas, thinking, feelings, emotions, understanding, desires, behaviors, actions, and reactions, regardless of whether it is being conditioned by genetic inheritance condition, or being influenced by some external influential conditions and situations, this mind will have peace, unconditional peace, not being determined or disturbed by the presence/absence of all kinds of pleasant or unpleasant/agreeable or disagreeable/desirable or undesirable/enjoyable or non-enjoyable experiences/happenings/conditions/situations/impermanent changes, that are happening internally or externally.

The more the mind has peace, the more the mind can understand this and that clearly, as it is.

If the mind wants to be happy, none and nothing can make the mind unhappy.

If the mind wants to be unhappy, anyone and anything also cannot make the mind happy. 

And it's okay, if the mind doesn't understand something or many things.

Keep practicing.

Never give up. 

Inquire the truth of everything.

Purify. Meditate. Inquiry. Realize.

The timeless freedom under the presence of correct understanding or wisdom and compassion

This timeless freedom doesn't mean that there is completely no limitation, or no restriction, or no self control in all our thinking, action, and speech or expression, or we have completely no restriction (that is nothing to do with the creation and existence of the many unnecessary man made egoistic non-universal rules and regulations) to be existing, functioning, and living in this world of diversity that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, in an infinite space of existence that is being shared momentarily among the many diverse objects and living organisms, individually and communally.

All and everyone and everything are limited and conditional, inevitably being limited by certain limitations and conditions, as well as selfless impermanent changes internally and externally, governed under the nature's law of cause and effect.

The selfless impermanent limited and conditional life existence of the mortal body and mind consisting of all kinds of individual and collective experiences, affairs, happenings, relationships, interactions, and activities are not necessarily the way that the different minds would like it to be, or the way that the different minds perceive as pleasant, desirable, agreeable, or enjoyable.

The selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence and function of all and everyone and everything are inevitably inter-connected to one another, inter-supporting and inter-impacting one another.

It is inevitable that there are certain limitation and condition while being existing and functioning selflessly and momentarily in and sharing this space of existence that doesn't belong to anyone and anything, especially under the existence of the many different minds that are functioning under the presence of ignorance, that generate many ideas/desires/beliefs/values/practices/behaviors/actions/reactions/aspirations/ambitions that are impacting oneself, others, and the surrounding environment in certain way.

There are certain limitation existing in the body and the mind, where the body and mind cannot do certain things, or the mind cannot understand or doesn't know how to do certain things. And it's okay.

There are certain limitation and condition existing in the surrounding environment, where all and everyone and everything cannot completely be free/unlimited/unrestricted/unconditioned to be what all and everyone desire to be and not to be. And it's okay.

The moment there is attachment, identification, desire of craving and aversion, comparison, judgment, and expectation arising and coming from the selfless thinking and acting faculty being generated towards the possibilities and impossibilities in the body and mind and the surrounding environment, in NOW, there arise the perception or notion of "I am not free."

Upon the absence of attachment, identification, desire of craving and aversion, comparison, judgment, and expectation in the mind, while there is respect and acceptance coming from the selfless thinking and acting faculty towards the body and mind and the surrounding environment being what it is, inevitably being limited by certain limitation and condition, where the body and mind cannot understand or do certain things, in NOW, where the selfless thinking and acting faculty doesn't force the body and mind beyond its limitation to be doing something that the body and mind cannot understand and cannot do, that is not possible, in NOW, there is no perception or notion of "I am not free."

Under the presence of correct understanding, or wisdom and compassion, where the mind understand that there are many things are limited by certain limitation and condition, as well as there are many minds are being limited by certain limitation, condition, and non-understanding, where certain things are not necessarily available in accordance to one's desire and don't desire, as well as certain minds are not necessarily thinking/understanding/behaving/acting/reacting in the way that is in accordance to one's agreements and disagreements, or that is unselfish, or non-possessive, or reasonable, or logical, or constructive, or beneficial for all and everyone unconditionally and indiscriminately, where the mind doesn't need to be determined or disturbed by the non-availability of certain things under certain inevitable limitation and condition, as well as the existing of certain unreasonable thinking/understanding/behavior/action/reaction of certain minds under the presence of certain inevitable limitation, condition, and non-understanding, but respecting and accepting all and everyone and everything being what they are and what they are not, as they are, there is no perception or notion of "I am not free."

This timeless freedom is always there as it is, where there is absence of the perception or notion of, "I am not free," even if the mind that is functioning under the presence of correct understanding, or wisdom and compassion, decides and chooses to not doing, or not saying, or not expressing something that is non-conducive or non-constructive for maintaining the peace and harmony in oneself and in the surrounding environment, and choosing not to be doing, not to be saying, or not to be expressing something that will be empowering the non-understanding, or the ignorance and the by-products of ignorance in the many minds in this world of diversity that doesn't belong to anyone and anything, but choosing to perform certain action, to be doing, or saying, or expressing, or disseminating something that will be conducive, constructive, and beneficial for all and everyone and everything in this world of diversity that doesn't belong to anyone and anything, to have more peace and harmony under the absence of ignorance and the by-products of ignorance, a.k.a. the presence of correct understanding, or wisdom and compassion.

It is insanity, but there were, and there are many minds would think and believe that it is 'easier' or 'more efficient' to control all the other minds to behave or not behaving in certain way, by keeping all minds as ignorant as possible, to be not knowing many things as they are, while to be fed with many untruthful manipulative story telling, to not questioning towards anything, especially towards the 'authorized' authority/authorization/head/leader/mystical superior powerful figure or entity, but to be conditioned to think and believe in certain way and to behave/act/react and desire in certain way, being conditioned under certain belief/values/practice, to be completely submissive and fearful towards the 'easily be offended and violent' prideful possessive ambitious authority/authorization/head/leader/mystical superior powerful figure or entity, within a family/tribe/community/organization/country/world/belief, to be threatened, oppressed, restricted, manipulated, and controlled under the many man made rules and regulations along with the painful disciplinary punishment upon the rules and regulations are being offended.

Many of these minds that are thinking and believing in such way, and there will be more and more minds would be thinking and believing in such way, it is not because they are what they are, or they are being born to think and believe and behave in such way, it is because they are and have been continuously being impacted, hammered, disappointed, threatened, disturbed, confused, frustrated, and exhausted by the existence of all kinds of untruthfulness/hypocrisy/discrimination and evitable man made suffering/painful sorrow/desperation/cruelty in the surrounding environment in the world, deriving from ignorant human's affairs/activities/behaviors arising under the influence of ignorance and its by-products.

The more the minds are thinking and believing and supporting ignorant practices in such way, the more frustration, desperation, suffering, and disturbance will be arising in the world that will impact all and everyone, including they themselves who support such way of thinking, beliefs, ideas, values, desires, aspirations, and practices.

That is why it is so extremely important and precious to be having the conscious mind awareness to be aware of and to be doubting/inquiring/investigating towards what is happening internally in the body and mind, and externally in the surrounding environment in the world of diversity that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, as well as the opportunity and possibility of conscious mind evolution, even if all and everyone and everything are selfless and impermanent, to attain direct self realization towards the truth of all and everything. It is not easy and it is challenging, but it is possible for the selfless self-aware minds that have intense yearning towards knowledge, liberation, freedom, and peace, to be free from all that madness that are being fed by ignorance, and that are feeding ignorance, of a loop that seems to be infinite and unbreakable, but it is POSSIBLE for each individual selfless mind to be free from that via self initiation and self effort.

There is no infinite existence of an immortal 'I' that exists in the selfless body and mind, that needs to be liberated, or needs to be free, or has the freewill for anything, however, the selfless impermanent limited and conditional thinking and acting faculty of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional physical structure, that is functioning under the influence of ignorance, that perceives all kinds of suffering and disturbance, that is in need of liberation, that needs to be free, that has the 'limited and conditional' conscious freewill to be deciding and choosing what and how it wants or doesn't want to do with the selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence and function of the perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting faculty via the selfless organs of action of the selfless physical structure, that is non-self, that doesn't even belong to the body and mind itself.

 

Even though there is the existence of certain limitation and condition, or restriction, or self control, or self filtering towards all one's physical and mental actions, speech, and expression under the presence of correct understanding, or wisdom and compassion in oneself, where oneself understands that there are certain minds don't have the correct understanding, or wisdom and compassion, where the many minds are functioning under the presence of ignorance and the by-products of ignorance, where the thinking/understanding/reasoning/behavior/action/reaction/desire of the many minds are not necessarily reasonable and constructive and beneficial for all and everyone and everything unconditionally and indiscriminately, where the many minds are thinking/understanding/reasoning/behaving/acting/reacting/desiring in the way that are selfish, possessive, discontent, greedy, impatient, disrespecting, intolerant, non-accommodating, disturbing, discriminating, violent, hurtful, and destructive unto all and everyone and everything, and hence, one decides and chooses to be doing and not doing something respectively in accordance to what is constructive and beneficial for all and everyone and everything, and vice versa, universally, unconditionally, and indiscriminately.

It is one's freedom of choice (not being forced, or threatened, or restricted, or oppressed by some others, under the existence of many unnecessary man made rules and regulations), of choosing what one wants to do or doesn't want to do, while respecting and accepting the possibility and impossibility of what can or cannot be done physically and/or mentally in NOW, going beyond or transcending the existence of certain inevitable limitation and condition in oneself, and in others and the surrounding environment, in NOW, that are also impermanent.

This is the 'limited and conditional' conscious freewill that exist under the presence of conscious mind awareness devoid of ignorance, the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness, as there is the existence of inevitable limitation to be choosing (conscious self control) what type of action, speech, and expression, being limited by the existence of certain inevitable existing conditions, that are impermanent, that will change, that appear and disappear, that increase and decrease.

The presence of conscious self control under the presence of correct understanding to be filtering and choosing what type of action/reaction, speech, and expression, to help the world of ignorance and egoism to have more peace and wisdom, is indeed the highly precious 'limited and conditional' freewill, not being determined or disturbed by all kinds of ignorance in this world to also become ignorant, or behaving/acting/reacting ignorantly like all the others that are functioning under the influence of ignorance. 

Even if it is 'limited and conditional' freewill, but it is highly precious and essential that can be promoting more peace and harmony, while less unnecessary evitable disturb and suffering in oneself, and in this world of diversity that is selfless, impermanent, limited, and conditional, that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

The presence of the correct understanding towards, "Even when there is none having any intention to be generating any action, speech, or expression that meant to be deliberately disturbing, offending, disrespecting, humiliating, belittling, or hurting anyone or anything, but there are many minds that are functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance, that don't have the correct understanding, that are lack of wisdom and compassion, where many of these unrest disturbed impure egoistic minds would perceive and react towards many things that they dislike and disagree with under their own particular thinking, belief, values, desires, and practices as something disturbing, offensive, disrespectful, humiliating, belittling, or hurting towards them, either individually and/or collectively, due to the presence of the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness in themselves," is freedom.

"I don't want to do, or say, or express anything that will hurt myself, and others, and the surrounding environment, intentionally, even if it is possible for me to do, or say, or express whatever and whenever." That is one's own freedom of thinking/understanding/desire/choice.

"I want to do, or say, or express something that will be conducive and beneficial for myself, and others, and the surrounding environment, if it's possible. I don't have to do, or say, or express anything if it is not possible for me to do, or say, or express anything, in NOW, that is impermanent." That is also one's own freedom of thinking/understanding/desire/choice.

The mind chooses to move away from the non-conducive, hurtful, violent, and destructive family, relationship, community, environment, or area and space, to be looking after the physical and mental well being of this body and mind, is also it's own freedom of thinking/understanding/desire/choice.

Regardless of what the body and mind do or don't/can't do, what the body and mind say or don't/can't say, what the body and mind express or don't/can't express, where the body and mind go or don't/can't go, where the body and mind is and is not, and what the body and mind can be and cannot be, regardless of under the presence of certain limitation and condition in oneself and/or in the surrounding environment, the mind is always at peace as it is. The mind is not being determined or disturbed by all that. Because it understands. Because it understands that there are many other minds don't understand, that gives rise to many kinds of unnecessary limitation and condition that are inconvenient, unpleasant, or hurtful unto oneself and all the others and the surrounding environment.

It is one's freedom of choice, action, thinking, and understanding to be free and peaceful as one is, no matter what, being undetermined or undisturbed by any existing limitation and condition or impossibility, in NOW, that is impermanent.

It is one's freedom of choice, action, desire, thinking, and understanding, whether one wants to do something to be free from ignorance, and to have correct understanding, or not.

The minds that have correct understanding, that is functioning under the presence of wisdom and compassion, they won't be determined or disturbed by anyone or anything, not to say, to react and feel being offended, disrespected, humiliated, belittled, intimidated, threatened, oppressed, discriminated, or hurt by anyone or anything, even if some minds are deliberately generating action, speech, or expression that are meant to be deliberately offending, disrespecting, humiliating, belittling, intimidating, threatening, oppressing, discriminating, or hurting the others under certain intentions or desires, deriving from ignorance and the by-products of ignorance.

They won't waste any energy or effort a.k.a the non-self precious life existence and function into all kinds of ignorance and the consequences of ignorance in this world of human beings that are mostly functioning under the veil of ignorance, that direct their entire momentary life existence/energy/effort to be focusing on empowering deeper ignorance in themselves and in others.

That is freedom, even under the presence of certain inevitable limitation and condition of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional momentary life existence and function of the finite mortal body and mind that is non-self, that doesn't even belong to the finite mortal body and mind itself, being momentarily existing and functioning in this world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone and anything, where there are many things that the body and mind don't do or cannot do, or don't know and can't understand, physically and/or mentally, that are impermanent.

The timeless freedom that is always there, as it is, in all and everyone, that never appear or disappear, that never increase or decrease, that is unlimited and unconditional, that is unveiled upon the absence of ignorance, or upon the presence of correct understanding, or wisdom and compassion.

Inquire the truth of everything.

Inquire towards good and bad karma that exists in certain cultural and spiritual beliefs

Many minds might be misunderstood the worldly egoistic belief of good and bad karma that exists in certain culture and spirituality, or religion, is the same as the nature's law of cause and effect.

Under such ignorance, the minds also misunderstood the worldly egoistic belief of reincarnation, is the same as the inevitable selfless impermanent limited and conditional restless changes that are non-self, that exist in all and everyone and everything.

The minds need to know that the belief of good and bad karma that belongs to certain culture and spirituality, or religion, is NOT the nature's law of cause and effect.

The minds need to know that the belief of reincarnation that belongs to certain culture and spirituality, or religion, is NOT the selfless impermanent limited and conditional restless changes that are non-self, that are inevitable, regardless of in the living organisms or in the non-living objects.

Meanwhile, there is the selfless manifestation of a continuous stream of the countless ideas of an illusive self identity of 'I' under different impermanent ever-changing forms, or qualities, or conditions (attaching unto and identifying with the selfless impermanent ever-changing different forms/qualities/conditions of the selfless impermanent life existence/function/experiences of the body and mind as 'I'), that ceaselessly arising, changing, and passing away in the selfless impermanent impure restless modification of the mind, transitioning under different realms or states of mind, in NOW, of the ceaseless and restless births and deaths of countless thoughts/ideas/feelings/emotions/actions/reactions/activities that give rise to the different realms or states of mind, where the ceaseless restless births and deaths of countless manifestations of thought after thought in the selfless modification of the mind can come to a stand still in silence, upon the annihilation of the mind stuff, a.k.a. the loop of ceaseless and restless births and deaths under different forms/qualities/conditions transitioning under different realms/states of mind, ceased existing.

The many different realms that exist or manifest within the selfless modification of the mind, are the reflection of the many different states of mind in the many different minds in this world that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, in NOW.

Which then allowing the self inquiry to be inquiring towards the truth of the belief of good and bad karma, as well as the belief of reincarnation that exist in certain culture and spirituality or religion to be happening.

 

The nature's law of cause and effect is not a 'creation', or an 'idea', or a 'belief, values, and practice'. It is what things are and how things are, as they are, and it is universal, devoid of subjective discrimination, or judgment, or the qualities of good and bad or right and wrong based on all the different kinds of beliefs, values, and practices, that exist under the many different types of names and forms.

Mango seed gives rise to mango tree, mango flower, and mango fruit.

Mango seed doesn't give rise to any other kind of trees, flowers, and fruits, that are not the mango trees, that are not the mango flowers, and that are not the mango fruits.

The mango seed, and all the other kinds of different seeds, are neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong.

The selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self momentary existence of a mango seed has no intention, or 'initial desire', or 'initial downfall', or 'initial sin', to be arising as or to be manifested into a 'mango seed' that gives rise to 'mango tree, mango flower, and mango fruit.'

The mango seed didn't exist until it is being formed or manifested as what it is, selflessly, under the selfless support of the selfless energy and selfless elements, governed by the nature's law of cause and effect.

The manifestation of a mango seed is not due to good, or bad, or neither good nor bad neutral KARMA.

The suns, the planets, the stars, the moons, the atmosphere, the nature, the water, the earth, the air, the heat, or the space, and all and everything that exist, change, decay, and ceased existing, are not because of there is the existence of good, or bad, or neither good nor bad neutral KARMA. All and everything arising and changing and passing away under the influence of the selfless energy and all kinds of selfless elements is not due to good, or bad, or neither good nor bad neutral KARMA. 

The selfless energy and selfless elements don't generate good karma when all and everything are existing because of the selfless support of the selfless energy and elements. Similarly, they don't generate bad karma when all and everything are changing and ceased existing or passing away because being influenced by either the excess or insufficient availability of the selfless energy and elements being what they are, as they are. But, all and everything are being what they are, as they are, under the influence of the nature's law of cause and effect, that is attributeless, that is unconditional and indiscriminate, that is neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong.

The selfless mango seed gives rise to one particular selfless mango tree, that gives rise to many selfless individual mango flowers, that give rise to many selfless individual mangoes, where the internal genetic condition as well as the external surrounding condition is influencing the entire evolution process from the seed to become a tree that have flowers and fruits, or not, is selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, that doesn't even belong to the seed, or the tree, or the flowers, or the fruits. And, that particular seed, that particular tree, all the different particular flowers, and all the different particular fruits, are having their own particular cause and effect to be arising, changing, decaying, and passing away in certain way or not in certain way.

This particular seed, this particular tree, and all the different individual flowers and fruits of this particular tree deriving from this particular seed, only has a certain limited duration of existence and being what they are, as they are, and they all don't even belong to themselves.

All kinds of different types of seeds being what they are, is fixed. It is what it is. But the evolution or the selfless impermanent changes of all and everyone and everything, are not fixed. It is conditional, depending on what is available or non-available, in NOW.

It is the same as all kinds of names and forms. All are selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

The existence of the many different varieties of mango seeds, are also neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong. 

The cause that gives rise to the specific effect, is neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong.

All kinds of different causes that give rise to their respective effects, are neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong.

The entire process from the cause evolving or coming into effect, is selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

There is no existence of any specific permanent independent individual self identity or self existence of an infinite 'I' that exists in any kind of names and forms, to be undergoing the selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional and non-self process of all kinds different manifestation and evolution under the different causes and effects.

All and everyone and everything are subject to the nature's law of cause and effect to be evolving in certain way and not in certain way.

All are subject to arising or forming, changing, decaying or aging, and disintegrating, decomposing, or passing away, selflessly, impermanently, limitedly, conditionally, and non-self, that doesn't belong to the names and forms themselves, regardless of all the different qualities of names and forms, regardless of sentient or non-sentient living organisms, or non-living objects. That is universal.

Meanwhile,

The belief of good and bad karma, is a 'creation', or an 'idea', or a 'belief, values, and practice' that was being created, and is existing under the condition and influence of the subjective discrimination or judgment towards the quality of what is good or bad and what is right or wrong, based on certain worldly egoistic cultural and spiritual, or religious ideas, beliefs, values, desires, visions, aspirations, and practices.

The belief of good and bad karma gives rise to as well as being empowered by the belief of "Ceaseless beginningless and endless reincarnations of a specific permanent independent individual self identity or self existence of an infinite immortal 'I' being reincarnated into ceaseless and countless finite mortal life existences under different forms, transitioning in the different realms or spheres, being powered and determined by the countless and endless good and/or bad KARMA as well as neither good nor bad neutral KARMA in an infinite loop that seems to be endless, that can never come to an end, where all kinds of painful suffering as well as pleasurable enjoyments, or the restless impermanent changes of any particular immortal self identity/existence of an infinite immortal 'I', will be continuously and ceaselessly carrying forward to the endless next and next reincarnations to be exhausting/burning off the endless and boundless KARMA, that is IMPOSSIBLE to be exhausted as it always keeps accumulating."

The belief of good and bad karma that leads to ceaseless and countless different reincarnations under different life existences or forms in different realms or spheres, is only limited to names and forms that come with the functions and organs of thinking, intention/desire, and actions under certain good or bad or neutral intentions/desires that generate endless countless and boundless good and/or bad karma as well as neither good nor bad neutral karma. Where 'liberation' to be liberated from the endless loop of the wheel of births and deaths, or the ceaseless 'reincarnation', is 'unreachable', or is absolutely not possible no matter what or how.

The direct self realization towards the belief of good and bad karma deriving from self inquiry, will also lead to the direct self realization towards the belief of reincarnation that exists in certain culture and spirituality, or religion, while it doesn't exist or valid in some other kinds of cultures and spiritualities, or religions.

The belief of good and bad KARMA, the belief of the endless and ceaseless loop of reincarnation, and the many other kinds of beliefs in the world of many diversities, are existing to be comforting the many confusing innocent minds that are undergoing certain inevitable biological and psychological suffering of the restless selfless impermanent changes of decay and disintegration and the ceaseless maintenance for life existence and function between birth and death, and the many different kinds of unnecessary evitable painful suffering inflicted by the selfish greedy prideful possessive ignorant minds functioning under the influence of ignorance, and to be justifying all THAT that are hurtful, destructive, and unreasonable affairs and behaviors, that could be avoided, that don't need to be happening at all, as well as to be justifying many things that the minds don't know and don't understand, in this world of human beings that are full of ignorance and egoism, that doesn't belong to anyone and anything.

"You and your family are good people and don't do anything bad to anyone and have been doing many good things for everyone, but you all are in painful suffering because you are being ill treated, bullied, and hurt by some others, is because of your bad KARMA from past lives. And you all will be stop suffering and start enjoying all kinds of goodness and happiness in your next life existence."

"All these bad, wrongful, and hurtful people who are selfish, evil, possessive, greedy, discriminating, and violent, who are ill treating and hurting and destroying all and everyone and everything, while they are enjoying many pleasurable enjoyments, is because of their good karma from past lives. And they will be judged accordingly upon death, and they will suffer in their next life existence." 

All these names and forms are neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong. Because there are many minds in this world are undergoing many different kinds of painful suffering need to be 'comforted' by certain 'justification' to feel better, even if it is not true. 

Similarly, the belief and values and practice of good and bad KARMA also gives the minds the justification to be justifying many man made punishable rules and regulations to create the power of control or authorization, to be 'controlling', 'oppressing', 'disciplining', or 'threatening' all and everyone and everything to be and not to be in certain way, in accordance to the desires and don't desires, agreements and disagreements, likes and dislikes of specific individuals or communities under specific belief, values, and practice.

Just as the ignorant egoistic authoritarian father(s) slap and punch the children, "You are living in my house. You are my children. You must behave in the way that I want you to behave. If you don't obey my rules and my desires, and go against my rules and desires, I will discipline and punish you. That is why I am now punishing you. You deserve to be disciplined and punished accordingly, so that you will behave exactly in the way that I want you to behave." Where that type of mentality and behavior exists in anywhere and everywhere. Complete madness deriving from the human beings that are mentally unwell.

However, it is upmost important for the minds that are seeking liberation from ignorance and suffering, to be performing self inquiry to be inquiring towards the truth of everything.

If the mind truly contemplates and inquires towards the teachings of yoga and/or buddhism under the purified and quiet modification of the mind, it will realize the truth of the many contaminated teachings and practices that exist in the world of yoga and/or buddhism, being contaminated by the minds that were/are functioning under the influence of ignorance, the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness. There is neither right nor wrong about the presence of ignorance and its by products in the many minds. It is a natural manifestation that exist or arise along the activation of the selfless impermanent restless thought process, or mental activities, or mind stuff.

There is no past or future next life existence. There is only ceaseless selfless impermanent limited and conditional changes in this particular life existence and function of this particular selfless body and mind, of ceaseless countless thoughts arising, changing, and passing away, of ceaseless births and deaths of countless ideas, thoughts, feelings, emotions, or activities, that give rise to or manifest the different states of mind or the different realms within the modification of the mind, under the influence of the nature's law of cause and effect, that are non-self, in NOW.

All kinds of evitable suffering in this world are inflicted by the minds that are functioning under the influence of ignorance and its by-products, either wittingly or unwittingly, intentionally or unintentionally, in NOW. All the people who are undergoing certain kind of unpleasant, difficult, and painful affair, happening, ill-treatment, bullying, condition, and situation that are inhumane, cruel, hurtful, life threatening, and violent, that are evitable and unnecessary, it is not because they are deserving to be undergoing such painful suffering because of their previous boundless bad karma accumulated from their past lives (that are non-existing, that don't exist). All these inhumanity, cruelty, difficulty, desperation, violence, and hurtful life threatening affairs, happenings, ill-treatments, bullying, conditions, and situations don't need to be existing at all, if the minds, of all the different individuals in the different communities, especially the self-claimed, or elected, or appointed leaders and law makers, are free from the influence of ignorance and the by-products of ignorance.

That is why the momentary existence and function of all and everyone and everything in the present moment, is highly precious, even when nothing is perfect, where all and everyone and everything are imperfect. Being alive, to have the mind conscious awareness and the functions and organs of thinking and action, that enables conscious mind evolution to be free from ignorance, and be able to make good use of this selfless impermanent limited and conditional momentary life existence that is non-self, that doesn't even belong to the body and mind itself, to be doing something beneficial for oneself and others and the world that doesn't belong to anyone and anything, unconditionally and indiscriminately, is the most precious thing, and the highest duty of mankind, in NOW.

Do not blind-believe, blind-follow, blind-agree/disagree, blind-practice, or blind-propagate anything from anyone. 

Inquire the truth of everything, including all that is here.

It is absolutely possible to be free and have peace

It is absolutely possible to be free and have peace.

The direct self realization towards, 

"All these are impermanent. All these will pass away."

On top of the non-grasping/non-clinging/non-judgment/non-expectation/non-violence towards whatever that are happening inside the body and mind and in the surrounding environment, in NOW.

That is the beginning as well as the end of liberation.

Liberation exists along the existence of any kind of suffering.

Liberation doesn't exist, or doesn't need to be existing, upon the presence of correct understanding or the absence of ignorance, where the mind is being undetermined by the selfless manifestation of all kinds of qualities of names and forms that are manifesting inside the body and mind, and in the surrounding environment.

Liberation exists, and is absolutely possible, upon the mind is not free, being in a state of disturbance, violence, and suffering, being determined and disturbed by the selfless manifestation of all kinds of qualities of names and forms that are selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, regardless of due to internal biological/psychological influences or due to external conditions and situations.

If the mind perceives suffering, then there is absolutely possible for the attainment of liberation from suffering.

Because the manifestation or the perception of suffering is also selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

Because the manifestation of suffering is the effect of a cause. And all kinds of different effects of the different causes, regardless of physical or mental, oneself or others, pleasant or unpleasant, agreeable or disagreeable, desirable or undesirable, enjoyable or non-enjoyable, are also selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

All kinds of cause and effect will pass away.

All kinds of names and forms will pass away.

All forms of inevitable and evitable suffering will pass away, even if one doesn't make any effort to do anything about it.

All the individuals/communities/leaders/minds/human beings that are directly or indirectly responsible for inflicting and empowering all kinds of unnecessary evitable painful suffering in the world of diversity that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, either wittingly or unwittingly, all will pass away.

The inevitable suffering that exists along under the momentary existence of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional life existence and function of the mortal body and mind, that is non-self, will ceased existing upon the ceased existence of the mortal body and mind.

The evitable suffering that exists under the selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence of the veil of ignorance in the selfless impermanent modification of the mind, that is non-self, will also ceased existing upon the annihilation or the absence of the veil of ignorance in the selfless impermanent modification of the mind, when the body and mind is still existing and functioning, in NOW.

It is solid fact, or science and mathematics. It is not a philosophy or unrealistic wishful thinking or fairy tales.

Even so, it is highly essential to free the mind from the veil of ignorance when the body and mind is still existing and functioning in NOW, so that the mind doesn't hurt (stops hurting) itself and others and the surrounding environment out of the disturbed, dissatisfied, discontented, violent, and suffering state of mind deriving from ignorance and its by-products during its momentary existence and function, that is impacting all and everyone and everything in certain way, regardless of significantly or insignificantly, directly or indirectly, that is absolutely unnecessary and evitable.

Inquire the truth of everything.

Inquire towards neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong

Physical strength and flexibility and stamina is neither something good nor bad.

Similarly,

Mental strength and flexibility and stamina is also neither something good nor bad.

The limitation of the body and mind is neither something good nor bad, neither something right nor wrong.

All kinds of behaviors/actions/reactions being generated under certain limitation are neither something good nor bad, neither something right nor wrong.

A person with a strong and flexible and fit physical body is not necessarily having a strong and flexible and fit mentality, and vice versa.

A person who is physically and/or mentally more strong, more flexible, and more fit than some other people doesn't mean that one is better, or wiser, or kinder, or happier than the others, and vice versa.

One can be using the existing higher degrees of physical strength, flexibility, and stamina to be doing something constructive or destructive. 

The body that is not strong enough, not flexible enough, and not fit enough to be doing certain physical activities, doesn't mean that it doesn't have the mental strength, mental flexibility, and mental fitness/stamina/endurance to be doing certain mental activities, and vice versa.

One can be using either physical and/or mental strength, flexibility, and stamina to be doing something either physical and/or mental activities that can be constructive or destructive.

Even 'constructive' and 'destructive' is also neither something good nor bad, neither right nor wrong.

One can be constructing something beneficial for all and everyone, and destroying something that is harmful unto all and everyone or one can be constructing something harmful for all and everyone, while destroying something beneficial for all and everyone.

And what is 'beneficial' or 'harmful' can be subjective and different under the many different minds that are functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance.

The very healthy, strong, flexible, and fit people and/or the highly intelligent, educated, and knowledgeable people might not be free from generating ideas/desires/behaviors/actions/reactions under the influence of ignorance, that would be hurtful unto oneself and others and the surrounding environment. That's why good or bad health and fitness condition as well as the degrees of intelligence, education, and knowledge, are neither something good nor bad, neither something right nor wrong. 

 

The body cannot do certain things because being limited by the existing physical limitation, is not something bad or wrong. A weak and ill physical body is neither something good nor bad, neither something right nor wrong. It is what it is.

Similarly,

The mind cannot understand or do certain things because being limited by the existing mental limitation, is not something bad or wrong. A weak and ill mind is neither something good nor bad, neither something right nor wrong. It is what it is.

 

The body can be limited by weakness, stiffness, and low fitness/stamina/endurance, or injury and sickness, for certain things or many things.

Similarly,

The mind can be limited by ignorance, the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, restlessness, and the non-development, or under development, or suppressed development, or insignificant, or non-availability of openness, clarity, calmness, kindness, reasoning, correct understanding, patience, forbearance, tolerance, perseverance, determination, willpower, self control, self awareness, self reliance, self initiative, self inquiry, self investigation, adaptation, adjustment, accommodation, acceptance, respect, non-possessiveness, non-attachment, or the ability to let go, for a healthier mentality and better understanding that gives rise to constructive and beneficial way of thinking/desire/behavior/action/reaction that benefit itself, others, and the surrounding environment.

Under the presence of ignorance, the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness, and under the absence or insufficiency of all those essential elements, or under such condition or limitation, the mind thinks/desires/behaves/acts/reacts in the way that are selfish and unkind, or hurtful and destructive, or unpleasant and disturbing unto itself, others, and the surrounding environment.

The mind just need to have self awareness towards all that, and have self initiative of want to be free from such condition or limitation, which is absolutely possible, under one's own effort and determination to be developing and empowering all those essential elements that are either absence or insignificant in itself, as well as to be activating and engaging in the mind purification and silencing process persistently to be annihilate the veil of ignorance, of the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness, that would be benefiting itself and others and the surrounding environment.

 

Most minds growing up being surrounded by many other minds that are limited by certain limitation, that are unwell or peaceless, regardless of whether in the family, or in the relationship, or in the community, on in the school, or in the work place, or in anywhere and everywhere, that behave in the way that are selfish, possessive, disturbing, intimidating, threatening, violent, unkind, hurtful, and destructive. While many of these minds are confused, where they don't have the basic understanding towards the existence of all those selfish, possessive, disturbing, intimidating, threatening, violent, unkind, hurtful, and destructive ideas/values/beliefs/practices/behaviors/actions/reactions that are hurting oneself and others and the surrounding environment, that are hurting them, and hence, eventually they also think/believe/desire/practice/behave/act/react like all those minds that are unwell or peaceless, that are selfish, possessive, disturbing, intimidating, threatening, violent, unkind, hurtful, and destructive, as they are also being limited by certain limitation, and don't have the understanding towards what is happening in themselves and in all the other minds.

However,

The minds don't have to be like that. There is possibility for the minds to develop the essential understanding towards all that (biologically and psychologically, and beyond the body and mind*), to transcend all that, and not being determined, or disturbed, or hurt, or influenced and conditioned by all kinds of selfish, possessive, disturbing, intimidating, threatening, violent, unkind, hurtful, and destructive ideas/values/beliefs/practices/behaviors/actions/reactions in the family, or in the relationship, or in the community, or in the school, or in the work place, or in anywhere and everywhere. The minds don't have to become like all the other minds that are unwell and peaceless.

More importantly, the minds don't have to be continuing standing/living there not moving away from the existence of all kinds of abusive ill-treatments deriving from the minds that are unwell and peaceless. Upon physical maturity/independence, the minds can move away from all that, even if they are one's parents/siblings or family, not to say, all the other minds that are unwell and peaceless, to be having the energy and the space for looking after the physical and mental well-being of oneself.

Only after oneself attains physical/mental/emotional maturity, or be free from being determined, or disturbed, or hurt, or influenced and conditioned by all those unwell and peaceless minds and their hurtful behavior, one can go back to look after all these unwell and peaceless minds, to help these minds to be free and have peace as well, if one desires, but one doesn't have to. While one also may or may not just do one's best to help all and everyone that are unwell and peaceless to be free and have peace, unconditionally and indiscriminately, without obligation, without egoism.

*As even enthusiastic and genuine biologists and psychologists that have been studying and learning and researching towards all kinds of information/facts about the body and mind, they are not necessarily being free from the veil of ignorance and the by-products of ignorance, or the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness, being conditioned deeply by certain inherited and adopted worldly egoistic impure ideas, beliefs, values, desires, visions, aspirations, and practices. However, under the existing accumulated knowledge or information about biology and psychology, there is advantage for them to go further on the path of self inquiry, to attain direct self realization towards all that, and be free from the veil of ignorance and the by-products of ignorance.

All kinds of community and world leaders or representatives, all the different types of teachers, trainers, and educators, all the highly intelligent and knowledgeable scholars/scientists/biologists/psychologists/engineers, all the partners and parents that have children or are going to have children, and all kinds of highly influential talented and creative influencers that significantly impact all and everyone and everything in certain way, as well as all the different individuals and communities, if they can just put down or put aside all kinds of personal and community identities even just for a few moments, to be genuinely quieting the restless modification of the mind, and practice meditation and perform self inquiry to be inquiring towards the truth of everything diligently, the world will have more peace and constructive development, rather than the existence of all kinds of selfishness, possessiveness, separateness, discrimination, bullying, intimidation, oppression, invasion, exploitation, greed, hatred, violence, cruelty, and painful suffering that are truly unnecessary and evitable.

The minds that are free from the veil of ignorance can truly serve humanity and help to promote individual/community/world peace in the world of diversity that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, effectively.

 

Being disturbed and hurt by something, is neither bad or wrong. 

Being unhappy and disappointed, is neither bad or wrong.

Being upset and angry, is neither bad or wrong.

Having fear and worry, is neither bad or wrong. 

Being violent and destructive out of disturbance, hurts, being intimidated, being bullied, being threatened, being oppressed, being discriminated, unhappiness, disappointment, upset, and anger, is also neither bad or wrong.

But, it is important to have the basic understanding, or even the basic desire to understand towards what are all these mental activity that is all happening in the mind, which then manifest or turn into physical expression/activity, and have the self initiative and intense yearning of, "I want to be free from disturbance, hurts, being intimidated, being bullied, being threatened, being oppressed, being discriminated, unhappiness, disappointment, upset, anger, fear, worry, and all these suffering. I don't want to be violent and destructive unto myself, others, and the surrounding environment. But, I can't control myself for thinking, feeling, and behaving in such way. It is painful. Me and my family and my friends didn't do anything bad to other people. Why all these people keep hurting us? I want these people to stop hurting us. Life is so difficult. Living is so difficult. I wanted to stop living, but I also want to live. I want my family and my friends to live. I want to be happy. I want to have peace. I want my family and my friends to be happy and have peace. I want to understand. I want to know how to be free and have peace."

That was what this mind had went through in the past, that brought this mind onto the path of self inquiry.

It is absolutely possible to be free and have peace.

"You want to be selfish, possessive, disturbing, intimidating, threatening, violent, unkind, hurtful, and destructive, that's your freedom of being what you are. That's your own cause and effect. I don't agree with you, but I also don't need to judge you or punish you. I don't need to be determined by you being what you are. I don't have to become like you."

That is both the beginning and the end of liberation.

Liberation doesn't exist upon the mind is being undetermined by the selfless manifestation of all kinds of qualities of names and forms that are manifesting inside the body and mind, and in the surrounding environment.

Liberation exists when the mind is not free, being in a state of disturbance and suffering, being determined and disturbed by the selfless manifestation of all kinds of qualities of names and forms that are selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

If the mind perceives suffering, then there is absolutely possible for the attainment of liberation.

Because the manifestation or the perception of suffering is also selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

Because the manifestation of suffering is the effect of a cause. And all kinds of different effects of the different causes, regardless of physical or mental, oneself or others, pleasant or unpleasant, agreeable or disagreeable, desirable or undesirable, enjoyable or non-enjoyable, are also selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self.

All kinds of cause and effect will pass away.

All kinds of names and forms will pass away. 

All forms of inevitable and evitable suffering will pass away, even if one doesn't make any effort to do anything about it.

The inevitable suffering that exists along under the momentary existence of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional life existence and function of the mortal body and mind, that is non-self, will ceased existing upon the ceased existence of the mortal body and mind.

The evitable suffering that exists under the selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence of the veil of ignorance in the selfless impermanent modification of the mind, that is non-self, will also ceased existing upon the annihilation or the absence of the veil of ignorance.

It is solid fact, or science and mathematics. It is not a philosophy or unrealistic wishful thinking or fairy tales.

Even so, it is highly essential to free the mind from the veil of ignorance when the body and mind is still existing and functioning in NOW, so that the mind doesn't hurt (stops hurting) itself and others and the surrounding environment out of the disturbed, dissatisfied, discontented, violent, and suffering state of mind deriving from ignorance and its by-products during its momentary existence and function, that is impacting all and everyone and everything in certain way, regardless of significantly or insignificantly, directly or indirectly, that is absolutely unnecessary and evitable.

Inquire the truth of everything.

Universal vs Non-universal

What is essential or inevitable for all and everyone and everything to be existing and functioning as what they are, is universal.

What is is non-essential for all and everything to be what they are, where all and everyone can still be existing and functioning as they are under the absence of certain names and forms, such as the existence and/or function of all kinds of different beliefs, values, practices, visions, ambitions, aspirations, likes and dislikes, agreements and disagreements, desires and don't desires, the idea of 'I' or the ego, egoism of attachment, identification, craving and aversion, comparison, judgment, and expectation, all kinds of impurities, excessive non-essential physical and mental activities or restlessness, contaminated/misinterpreted teachings and practices of yoga and/or buddhism, and so on, are non-universal.

What is universal, it is the truth or validation for all and everyone and everything, regardless of the different qualities of different names and forms.

What is non-universal, it isn't necessarily true or valid for all and everyone and everything, but it is only 'true' or 'valid' for particular quality of particular names and forms.

 

All and everyone and everything are selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, governed under the nature's law of cause and effect.

The truth of Selflessness, Impermanence, Limitation, Conditional, Non-self, and the nature's law of cause and effect, is universal.

 

All and everyone have their own particular personality, characteristic, family lineage, genetic inheritance, names and forms, qualities, conditions, situations, experiences, degrees of inherited and developed intelligence, cognition, reasoning, understanding, learning, knowledge, talents, skills, interests, thinking, ideas, belief, values, practice, desires and don't desires, likes and dislikes, agreements and disagreements, achievements and non-achievements, vision, ambition, sentiments/feelings/emotions, behavior, action, and reaction, and the consequences of all that, or the different causes being generated under different desires/intentions/influences that give rise to different effects, are non-universal.

What allowing all those name and forms that are non-universal to be existing and happening under the nature's law of cause and effect (regardless of constructive, or destructive, or neutral), is universal.

 

All and everyone can be having different types of personal and community likes and dislikes, agreements and disagreements, desires and don't desires towards all and everything based on their own particular thinking, ideas, beliefs, values, desires, visions, aspirations, and practices, that are non-universal, but all and everyone cannot exist or function to be what they are, if without the air, the water, the nutrients, the minerals, and the heat (energy, or power for all kinds of activity) that exist in nature that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

Diversity, of the existence and function of many different qualities of different names and forms, is universal.

 

All and everyone are breathing in and breathing out (regardless of clean air or polluted air in different area, but the content of oxygen in the air is what essential, even if the degrees of oxygen in different altitudes are different) to be existing and functioning as what they are, to be experiencing all kinds of different experiences, for being what they are, as they are.

Upon the breathing stops for extended period, or stops completely, or the air is unavailable for prolonged duration, the names and forms cease function, disintegrate, and cease existing.

The different contamination and the different degrees of contamination, and the different degrees of the different contents in the air, is non-universal.

The contents in the air (oxygen and/or carbon-dioxide for different living organisms) that enabling all and everyone and everything to be existing and functioning as what they are, is universal.

 

What is universal, is intentionless and doesn't discriminate.

What is intentional and discriminate, is non-universal.

 

The sun and the sunlight, is universal.

The earth and nature and the living atmosphere, is universal.

The nutrients and minerals, are universal.

The air and water, are universal.

The heat (energy, or power for all kinds of activities/manifestations), is universal.

The inevitable suffering of ceaseless life maintenance, restlessness, fatigue, hunger and thirst, discomfort, pain, impermanent changes, decay, damage, illness, weakness, fragility, disintegration, coming in contact with disagreeable names and forms, separation from agreeable names and forms, is universal. All and everyone and everything are subject to Selflessness, Impermanence, Limitation, Conditional, and Non-self.

The possibility of liberation from ignorance under conscious mind evolution, where the selfless mind awareness transcends (being undetermined and undisturbed and non-intimidated by) all those natural manifestations that are inevitable, is universal.

The selfless universal consciousness that pervades all and everyone and everything, that is untouched/uncontaminated/unchanged/uninfluenced/undamaged by the countless manifestations of all kinds of names and forms, is universal.

What is universal, it doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

What 'only belongs to' and 'only valid for' specific names and forms/individual/community, it is non-universal.

The nature's law of cause and effect, is universal.

The belief of good and bad karma or the belief of merit and sin that exist in and belong to the many different kinds of spirituality/religion, is non-universal.

Natural manifestation of intentionless natural disasters and natural cause of death or ceased existence under natural cause and effect of decay and disintegration, or the uninterrupted natural cycle of arising and passing away under nature that is inevitable, is universal.

Ignorance induced disasters/damages/injuries/causes of death or ceased existence under specific intention/desire/motivation/aspiration/ambition/activity under the influence of ignorance in the different minds that is evitable or unnecessary, is non-universal.

For example, not all and everyone will die from specific type of non-natural cause of death. The different non-natural causes of death, is non-universal. But all and everyone will eventually die under natural cause of decay and disintegration, if they didn't die under non-natural cause of death and are not having any kind of chronic sickness. That is universal.

Another example, not all and everyone will be undergoing specific type of sickness regardless of whether it is due to genetic factor or it is deriving from unhealthy daily habits under the influence of ignorant thinking and behavior. The different type of sickness and the different cause of sickness, is non-universal. But all and everyone will be undergoing some kind of sickness eventually regardless of whether it is acute sickness or chronic sickness, regardless of whether it is due to genetic factor or injury, or it is deriving from unhealthy daily habits that is evitable, or it is due to the natural effect of decay and weakening of the different components/organs/systems of the physical body, if they live long enough to be undergoing the natural process of aging, that is inevitable. All and everyone are all subject to decay, weakness, sickness, or injury, even if the body is being well-maintained under superb condition, super fit, super strong, and super flexible. That is universal.

Suffering in general, regardless of what the mind thinks and believes as 'good people or bad people, good karma or bad karma' that are not really the truth of what things are, is universal. All and everyone are subject to inevitable suffering of just by being existing and functioning as what they are, that need ceaseless effort for ceaseless maintenance, that is selfless, that is subject to impermanence, limitation, conditional, and non-self.

Specific type of suffering deriving from ignorance that is evitable, is non-universal. Not all and everyone will be undergoing any specific type of suffering deriving from ignorance that is evitable.

The possibility for all minds to be transcending all kinds of suffering, or to be free from ignorance, is universal.

Not all and everyone are interested and self initiative to be transcending all kinds of suffering, or to be free from ignorance, and even if someone is interested and self initiative to be free from ignorance, or to be transcending all kinds of suffering, not all and everyone can attain liberation due to the existence of certain inevitable non-conducive condition or limitation, and hence, the path of liberation to be free from ignorance and suffering, is non-universal, even though all and everyone can be free, if they want, indiscriminately, which that itself, is universal.

However, if the mind that has the desire and effort to be free from ignorance, or to be transcending all kinds of suffering, but due to certain reason, or limitation, or condition, it is still not completely be free from ignorance and suffering, that it still has certain doubt towards certain things/teachings and it perceives suffering, in NOW, but as long as it knows what is non-attachment, non-identification, non-craving, non-aversion, non-judgment, non-expectation, acceptance, and letting go, where it is aware of and acknowledges the presence of ignorance or doubt and the perception of suffering, but without attachment or identification, craving or aversion, judgment or expectation, and be able to accept the reality in the present moment now as it is, not necessarily the way that it would like it to be, and be able to let go all the selfless manifestation of ignorance, doubt, and suffering in this present moment now, and it is resting in peace, that is already what liberation is about. That is what TRANSCEND is about.

TRANSCEND doesn't mean that there is no manifestation of any kind of unpleasant painful suffering within the body or in the surrounding environment being aware of the painful suffering in all the others, but the mind knows how to not attaching/grasping towards the selfless manifestation/perception/experience of all kinds of names and forms, and if there is the presence of attachment unwittingly/unconsciously, it knows how to let go instantly, and go beyond the selfless manifestation of all kinds of names and forms that are selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, that are pleasant or unpleasant, agreeable or disagreeable, and desirable or undesirable, that arise within the physical structure or in the surrounding environment.

It doesn't mean that upon TRANSCEND takes place, one doesn't perform actions, or one stops performing actions that are possible, that can be benefiting all and everyone unconditionally and indiscriminately, that might help all the others to also be free from ignorance, and to transcend the selfless manifestation of all kinds of evitable and inevitable suffering in oneself and in others.

That's why the genuine dhamma teachers - Siddhartha Gautama buddha, Swami Sivananda, Ajahn Chah, and many other saints and sages, they kept performing actions to be disseminating the teachings/the dhamma as it is, to the public unconditionally and indiscriminately, until the end of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional life existence, because there were/are many minds in this world of ignorant egoistic human beings are desperately in need of the teachings/the dhamma, to be free from the veil of ignorance, and to have peace, so that the minds don't hurt themselves and others and the surrounding environment during the momentary selfless impermanent limited and conditional worldly life existence that is non-self, that doesn't even belong to oneself, not to say, that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

TRANSCEND is nothing spiritual, philosophical, religious, mystical, miracle, unreachable, untouchable, momentary effects/selfless impermanent mental and/or physical activities under the usage of substances or under unconsciousness and semi consciousness, such as 'dream', 'illusion', 'wild imagination', 'I see the light', 'I see xxx', 'I am flying/floating', 'out of body/out of the world experience', 'insanity', 'hypnotism', or 'trance', that are all part of the selfless manifestations within the modification of the mind.

All kinds of instinctive intentionless unconscious autonomous physical and mental activities for basic life maintenance, and behavior/action/reaction influenced by the mind thinking and behavior pattern being conditioned by genetic inheritance and external influential conditions, is universal. All minds cannot avoid all that, although there is possibility to transcend (not being determined by) all that.

All kinds of conscious by choice non-autonomous physical and mental activities beyond the basic life maintenance under certain conscious desire and intention, or all kinds of conscious by choice behavior/action/reaction under certain desire/intention influenced by the mind thinking and behavior pattern that can be modified, re-conditioned, and influenced by the existence of many different types of impactful and influential conditions/factors/elements/observations/practices/beliefs/values/ideas, of all kinds of physical and mental inputs/activities/interactions/experiences, that give rise to respective consequences that influence the selfless impermanent internal (within the body and mind) and external (the external surrounding living environment) changes/evolution in certain way, in NOW, is non-universal, where different minds can be aware or unaware of all that, and can be doing or not doing something about that, where some minds can be behaving constructively, while some minds can be behaving destructively, which can be determining/influencing all and everything that are happening in the body and mind, and in the world, in NOW. And that itself, where it is possible for the minds to transcend or override all that, is universal.

That's why the egoistic possessiveness and ownership and authorization or restriction/control over the earth, nature, natural resources, living atmosphere, land and space, the freedom of existence/function/living/being/movement of all and everyone and everything that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, as well as the notion or desire to be discriminating towards someone or something, to be destroying diversity, or to be converting/oppressing/forcing all kinds of diversities to become one single uniformity that is agreeable to one particular individual or community, is hurtful, and is against nature, or the truth of all and everything, that gives rise to all kinds of unnecessary suffering that don't need to be existing at all, unto all and everyone and everything.

It is 'normal' that there are certain minds only want to hurt and destroy all and everything, because they are being wired/conditioned to be thinking and behaving in such way, but even these minds also can be liberated from ignorance, and stop hurting itself and all and everything out of its own conscious choice/desire, under self awareness, self initiative, self effort, self inquiry, and self realization, not to say, the minds that don't want or don't have any intention to hurt or destroy anyone or anything.

Inquire the truth of everything. 

Live in the present moment removes the veil of ignorance

One of the ways for the mind to be free from ignorance and suffering, is the observation as well as the contemplation or self-inquiry upon 'Live in the present moment' or '活在當下'.

By contemplating upon 'Live in the present moment' as well as practically living in the present moment will remove the veil of ignorance, allowing the mind to realize or understand all the other teachings of yoga and/or buddhism.

'Live in the present moment' is universal, non-spiritual, non-religious, non-philosophical, non-harmful, non-intimidating, non-discriminate, non-limited, and non-conditional.

It is natural and effortless.

 

All and everyone only exist in the NOW.

None can exist outside of NOW. 

All and everyone has to live in the present moment.

One cannot and doesn't live outside the present moment.

There is no option for choosing to live before or after NOW. 

However, in the NOW, the mind awareness can wander to the past memory and future imagination, and holds onto the past memory and future imagination, and hence, existing/functioning/living under the presence and influence of unnecessary craving, clinging, longing, aversion, disturbance, dissatisfaction, disappointment, hurt, resentment, bitterness, guilt, regret, pride, shame, fear, worry, anticipation, expectation, and wishful thinking, in NOW.

 

The basic practice of observing the natural breath coming and going, is all about 'being in the NOW' and 'Live in the NOW'.

If you hold onto the incoming breath, you will suffer.

If you hold onto the outgoing breath, you will suffer.

If you hold onto not breathing in and not breathing out, you will suffer.

The moment you let go, and allow the breath to be what it is, ceaselessly coming and going, and eventually it will stop coming and going, there is no suffering.

The moment you want to control the breath to be in certain way and you don't want the breath to be in certain way, suffering will arise. 

The breath doesn't belong to you (the selfless conscious mind awareness that is aware of the breathe coming and going), or anyone, or anything, and vice versa.

Similarly,

The moment you want to control life or the world to be in certain way and you don't want life or the world to be in certain way, you will suffer.

The life or the world, or whatever you perceive and experience, don't make you suffer.

It is your urge/desire/ambition to control anything and everything to be or not to be in certain way, that makes you suffer.

Life or the world doesn't belong to you, or anyone, or anything.

Whatever you perceive and experience don't belong to you, or anyone, or anything. 

 

There is no before or after NOW. It is always NOW. There is only NOW.

Everything in NOW, regardless of inside or outside this body and mind, is impermanent, constantly changing.

That realization towards Impermanence, will lead towards the realization of Selflessness, Limitation, Conditional, Non-self, Timelessness, Oneness, Non-separateness, Non-duality, Cause and Effect, and the truth of what is 'the endless loop of reincarnation, of ceaseless births and deaths transitioning under different realms'.

Non-attaching/non-grasping/non-holding onto/non-possessing/non-clinging/non-controlling towards the present moment (that is ceaselessly changing, while the changes can be modified and influenced in NOW under conscious choice/desire/intention), not to say, the past memory (that cannot be undone or changed) and the future imagination (that doesn't exist at all), regardless of pleasant or unpleasant. 

If there is attachment/grasping/holding onto/possessiveness/clinging/control, suffering manifest as it is.

If there is no attachment/grasping/holding onto/possessiveness/clinging/control, suffering doesn't arise.

What is 'I'?

What is 'suffering'?

What is 'fear'? 

Merely make use of what is available and do what is possible, in NOW, to be benefiting all and everyone unconditionally and indiscriminately, and let it go.

Perform action, and renounce the fruit of action.

Non-controlling, doesn't only limited to the ceaseless instinctive non-conscious non-by choice random autonomous physical and mental activities for essential life maintenance operated under the selfless survival instinct even under the absence of conscious mind awareness being aware of all those autonomous physical and mental activities for life maintenance are happening ceaselessly.

Non-controlling, doesn't mean non-action/inaction/actionless, or the complete absence of physical and mental action/activities under conscious choice/desire/intention.

Give effortlessly upon possibility to give, and let go - The absence of control

Give, and expect this and not that - The presence of control

That's why there is not only the unconscious autonomous physical and mental evolution/changes that is determined and influenced by certain underlying internal genetic inherited conditions/factors, but there is also the conscious mind evolution directing the impermanent changes in certain way under certain external factors/conditions/observations/practices/possibility/availability under conscious choice/desire/intention that can influence or override the internal factors.

The selfless conscious mind awareness can be aware of the presence of certain unpleasant physical or mental illness in the body and mind, or being aware of all kinds of mind stuff/modification/activities of the mind generating the different states of mind, while it is not being determined or affected by all that, or the objects of awareness.

Inquire towards the truth of everything.

Oneness, Non-duality, Non-separateness exist in all kinds of diversities

Oneness, non-duality, and non-separateness exist in the countless diversities of nature, of the diverse selfless existence of all kinds of names and forms under different qualities and characteristics, and all kinds of diversities are not contradicting against one another at all. 

Oneness, non-duality, and non-separateness is the truth of what all and everything are, where all and everything that are uniquely different from one another are having the one same universal nature that exists in all kinds of diversities under all kinds of names and forms that exist under the many different qualities and characteristics having their own respective different functions and purposes, regardless of sentient and non-sentient living beings or non-living objects, to be selflessly working together and inter-supporting one another to be existing and functioning as what all and everything are.

It is about the universal truth of Selflessness, Impermanence, Limitation, Conditional, and Non-self that exists in all and everyone and everything, that makes all kinds of diversities not distinctive or separated from one another, even when all kinds of diversities are all uniquely different in their own way being what they are, as they are, and having their own selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence and function, changes, decay, disintegration, and ceased existence and function at their own respective cause and pace.

Diversity is the basis of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional existence and function of all kinds of names and forms. Without all the diverse elements that work together and inter-supporting one another selflessly, without the unconditional indiscriminate selfless active power of compassion that enabling all these names and forms to be here to be what all and everything are, none and nothing can be existing, not to say, to be functioning as anything.

All are selfless.

All are impermanent.

All are limited.

All are conditional.

All are non-self.

All are existing momentarily.

All are subject to arising, forming, changing, decaying, disintegrating, and passing away.

Just as ignorance, or being ignorant towards the truth of what all and everything are, it is NOT the opposite of highly intelligent, educated, and knowledgeable, or it is not about stupidity, or laziness, or uneducated and uncivilized, as being interpreted literally in the worldly dictionary of human beings.

Even the highly intelligent, educated, and knowledgeable, as well as hard-working and highly accomplished human beings who are not stupid, or lazy, or uneducated, or uncivilized at all, might still be functioning under the influence of ignorance, where the minds are still being over-powered and determined by the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness in the selfless impermanent modification of the mind, where the minds might not be free from generating selfish egoistic impure thoughts/ideas/desires/actions/reactions/behaviors/visions/ambitions that would hurt themselves and others and the surrounding environment being over-powered by ignorance and its by-products, either intentionally or unintentionally, wittingly or unwittingly, deliberately or randomly.

Similarly, 

Diversities is NOT the opposite of oneness, non-separateness, and non-dualism, as being interpreted literally in the worldly dictionary of human beings.

Oneness, non-duality, and non-separateness are NOT about non-diversity or uniformity, where all and everyone and everything are having one single uniform quality, or one single uniform name and form, or one single uniform characteristic, or one single family/specie/gender, or one single community, or one single ethnicity, or one single belief and values, or one single philosophy, or one single culture, or one single spirituality/religion or spirituality-less/religion-less, or one single uniform way of thinking, or one single uniform way of living, or one single uniform way of conduct, or one single vision, or one single aspiration, or one single nation and nationality, or one single leader/government/authority/political view in the entire world.

Healthy evolution of the existence and function of all and everything depends very much on the availability of diversities.

Such as the inevitable need of the existence of the many diverse different family lineage or genetic inheritance in any species of all kinds of sentient living organisms under the natural law of NATURE, such as the children that are born under the marriage among the relatives of the same family lineage and genetic inheritance will have certain unhealthy physical/mental/emotional condition and evolution, not to say, among parents and children or among siblings.

The existence of the many diversities of the many different species of the sentient and non-sentient living organisms of diverse plants/insects/animals/birds/reptiles/fish/shellfish, and etc, as well as the existence of the many different climates/seasons/landscapes/oceans/lakes/things/objects/tools/knowledge/skills, and even, desirable and undesirable relationships, interactions, affairs, conditions, and experiences, are all having their own respective unique functions/purposes/duties/responsibilities to be existing and functioning as what they are, that enabling the entire world of diversities that doesn't belong to anyone and anything to be existing and functioning as what it is.

The absence of all kinds of discrimination and separateness is not about eliminating and destroying all kinds of diversities/communities/unique individualism/self independence/freedom of being what all and everyone are/freedom of experiencing, learning, growing, living, moving, travelling, exploring, thinking, reasoning, understanding, knowledge, inputs, and outputs or expression in the world.

The presence of all kinds of discrimination and separateness that give rise to all kinds of unnecessary difficulties and painful suffering in the world of human beings under many diversities and communities that don't belong to anyone or anything, that impact, damage, and destroy the over-all physical/mental/emotional well-being of all and everyone, is deriving from the minds that are functioning under the veil of ignorance, being over-powered and determined by the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness.

The elimination of all kinds of discrimination and separateness is coming from the precious conscious mind evolution, that is about the annihilation of ignorance, of the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness in the minds of human beings that come with the unique precious functions of the conscious mind awareness, cognition, and intellectual reasoning.

The minds that are functioning under the influence of the veil of ignorance would think, reason, understand, and believe that oneness, non-dualism, and non-separateness is the opposite of diversity, where they strongly against the existence of diverse unique individualism under many different uniqueness of different names and forms under different qualities and characteristics, where they desire to be achieving 'one big uniform community' that they mistaken as 'oneness, non-dualism, and non-separateness', as well as to promote and achieve what they think and believe and understand as 'non-discrimination', by discouraging, eliminating, and destroying diversity, through unifying all kinds of diversities to become one single uniform, of only having one single community under one single ethnicity/tribe/characteristic/name and form, while living and functioning under one single belief and values, under one single nation governed by one single leader/government/authority in the entire world, by exercising and materializing unification via manipulation/education/temptation as well as by enforcing fear/disciplinary/prosecution/punishment/force/threat/intimidation/invasion/occupation/violence/killing to clear out all kinds of diversity, of the existing many different diverse ethnicity/tribes/communities/cultures/spiritualities/religions/beliefs and values/nations, by imposing criminalization/prosecution/punishment/imprisonment/reeducation/reformation unto the existence of the diverse unique individualism and the diverse independent nations under different leaders/governments/authorities under the many different diversities/visions/ways of living/ways of doing things/cultures/spiritualities/religions/beliefs and values, that go against their ambitious vision of a unify world of one big community under their particular leadership or authorization.

That type of thinking, belief, values, desires, practices, and ambitious visions, is already indicating the presence of ignorance that gives rise to intense greed/selfishness/possessiveness/discrimination/aversion/control/violence towards the nature, or the truth of nature that consists of many diversities that don't belong to anyone and anything, where all and everyone and everything are selfless, impermanent, limited, conditional, and non-self, where all and everyone and everything are free to be existing and functioning as what they are under many different diverse qualities of names and forms, having diverse uniqueness of each and everyone and everything.

The minds that insists that the way to eliminate separateness and discrimination is by unifying all and everyone and everything to become one single uniform, through destroying all kinds of unique individualism and diversities, freedom and independence of all diverse individuals or communities, just ask them, if they can still exist and function just by having the head without the whole body of many different or diverse components/organs/systems, or having only one single organ, or one single system, or one single cell/atom/neuron/neutron/proton, or one single gland, or one single limb, or one single finger, or one single knowledge and skill.

Similarly, out of ignorance, the minds 'misuse' the literal meaning of 'Selflessness', 'Selfless actions to be working together and inter-supporting one another', 'generosity', 'unconditional loving kindness', 'compassion', 'non-attachment', 'non-expectation', 'non-judgment', 'acceptance', 'all are imperfect', 'silence', 'non-self', 'cause and effect', and 'neither good nor bad' or non-duality, to be justifying 'slavery', 'exploitation', 'submissive towards authority', 'silence against abusive ill-treatments', 'I can do whatever I desire', 'engaging in irresponsible uncommitted multiple love relationships', 'intentional hurtful behavior', 'I am performing my duty for helping 'xxx' to be judging and punishing all and everyone who are disobedient, who are bad and wrong', 'I am not responsible for anything because the biologists say that there is no freewill', 'it's the responsibility of my genes inheritance and the hormones, that is why I am what I am, and behaving in the way that I behave, it is not 'I', and there is no 'I' existing', 'why bother about engaging in all kinds of practice and observation because the biologists say that all and everything are destined to be what we are and to be evolving in certain way under an existing cause, that all kinds of changes are fixed and governed by the previous cause that is the effect of the previous previous cause in an beginningless and endless loop, that my desire is influenced by the hormones and the autonomous survival instinct, that all my thoughts and actions are also the effect of the previous cause, that everything that I experience and don't experience, and what I do and don't do in my entire existence until I ceased existing, is fixed', and etc.

Even the biologists can also be functioning under the veil of ignorance, unless they attain direct self realization towards the conscious mind evolution that enables the selfless perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting faculty to transcend itself, of the selfless impermanent limited and conditional momentary existence and function of the mind stuff that is non-self, that don't even belong to the thinking and acting faculty, not to say, all and everything else don't belong to anyone or anything, where the mind can be resting in peace and devoid of ignorance during the momentary selfless impermanent existence and function, not being determined or over-powered by the selfless impermanent limited and conditional physical body and the mind stuff being what it is, that is constantly changing, decaying, disintegrating, and eventually, passing away.

Similarly, there are some minds try to curb all kinds of discrimination and separateness by restricting all kinds of diversities/individuals/communities to be what they are, as they are, by disallowing and criminalizing certain usage of words/sentences/expressions/symbols that might be sensitive or offensive for certain individuals or communities, by disallowing and criminalizing certain physical looks and appearances under certain colours, clothing, and accessories, or by disallowing and criminalizing certain affairs, events, and activities that 'belong' to certain 'culture'/'belief'/'values'/'spirituality'/'religion'/'tribe'/'ethnicity'/'community', which don't and cannot stop the existence of discrimination and separateness, or more precisely, offensiveness, defensiveness, anger, and hatred in the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, because discrimination and separateness, or offensiveness, defensiveness, anger, and hatred don't come from all those names and forms, but they are deriving from the minds functioning under the influence of ignorance, the idea of 'I', egoism, impurities, and restlessness.

Upon the annihilation of ignorance, all kinds of worldly egoistic beliefs and values and practices are just what they are. All kinds of beliefs, values, and practices cannot determine the minds to be peaceful or not peaceful. They are neither good nor bad, neither right nor wrong, where many minds still need to hold onto particular belief and values and practices to be who they are, and to live life in certain way of having particular direction that motivate them to continuing living despite the presence of doubts, painful sorrow, difficulties, disappointment, fear, worry, challenging conditions and situations, and all kinds of physical/mental/emotional suffering. For the liberated minds, they don't need to hold onto or rely unto any kind of belief, values, or practice to give them a particular direction in life, and they don't need to be motivated by anything for anything.

Meanwhile, the action or practice of restricting, disallowing, or criminalizing the many diverse individuals or communities to be what they are, as they are, is a form of discrimination, separateness, offensiveness, defensiveness, anger, and hatred towards certain names and forms that the minds think and believe and recognize as 'bad', 'wrong', 'negative', 'inappropriate', or 'non-supporting and contradicting towards their particular thinking, idea, belief, values, desire, vision, and practice'.

It is about guiding and teaching all minds to be developing openness and self-inquiry that gives rise to correct understanding from young, that gives rise to acceptance, accommodation, and respect towards all kinds of diversities being what they are, even if oneself strongly disagrees with certain things about some others based on one's own particular family/community thinking and belief, values and practice, while not being disturbed, or offended, or determined by one's own disagreement and dislike towards all the others that are different from oneself, allowing all and everyone to be free, to be what they are, as they are. Understanding that if there are certain behavior that are unreasonable and hurtful coming from some others, is because these minds are functioning under the influence of ignorance. One doesn't need to be determined by the ignorance and ignorant behavior of others. One can do one's best to stay away from such minds functioning under the influence of ignorance, just as one would do one's best to stay away from any kinds of natural disaster or the presence of danger.

Most minds would think and believe, and say, "I (We) have the rights to be here. This is my (our) land and space. Why do I (we) being the one that move away? These bad and terrible people don't deserve to be here. We need to chase them out and keep them away from here, that belongs to me and my ancestor (our community and our country)."

If one's house is on fire, one doesn't hesitate to get out from the house that is on fire. One doesn't talk to the fire, "Hey, this is my house. You don't deserve to be here. I don't want you to be here. Get out and disappear from my house." 

As well as the hard but true reality of, "I (We) would like to be able to go somewhere, but where can I (we) go? I am (We are) illegal being anywhere in this world of human beings. We all are 'illegal' for being existing and living anywhere on this planet earth that doesn't belong to anyone or anything. We don't even have a proper shelter to live, not to say, to have an address or any kind of documentation. Life is already very difficult for us to survive, not to say, to be living under constant bullying, intimidation, threat, violence, and cruelty."

While in truth, none and nothing belongs to anyone or anything.

We all are merely tiny part of the selfless, impermanent, limited, and conditional, finite, mortal, and fragile diverse organisms that exist momentarily sharing this space of the universe that doesn't belong to anyone or anything under the unconditional indiscriminate selfless power of compassion of the nature.

Claiming possession and ownership or authorization/power of control towards the land and space, nature and natural resources, and the diverse communities, and taking away or criminalizing the basic freedom of existence/survival/living/being of all and everyone in this world that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, that gives rise to all kinds of unnecessary difficulties, desperation, and painful suffering in the world, is indeed the greatest 'crime' of all 'crimes'.

Did the existence of 'law and orders' that supposed to be 'protecting the people from all kinds of corruptions, bullies and their bullying' reduce or get rid of all kinds of corruptions, bullies and their bullying, or it is a convenient tool being created and used by the corrupted minds to be corrupted, or to be empowering the bullies to be bullying others?

Did the 'law and orders' stop the wars that hurt and destroy and impact all and everyone and everything that don't have any desire to get involved in violence and cruelty?

Did all kinds of incredible magic or vast collective positive mind power stop all kinds of ignorance, suffering, corruptions, wars, violence, cruelty, bullies and their bullying?

Inquire towards the truth of everything.

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

Be open and be diligent to be inquiring towards the truth of all kinds of beliefs/values/ideas/sayings/information/knowledge/philosophies/teachings/spiritualities/politics/stories telling, in the world of many diversities that doesn't belong to anyone and anything, coming from anyone and everywhere, including all that is here.
