CO & Buddha
A lot of people wud hate me.
Here I am, I know everything. Almost. Enuff to get me 55/100 even if i write the paper right now. Both, Object Oriented Programming & Computer Organisation.
And I have time to study more. But I won’t. I can’t. I am unable to. I am not in the mood. It doesnt interest me anymore. Its not a challenge enuff, coz its surmountable. I have not surmounted it. Its just surmountable. If i know i can do it, I dont feel like doing it anymore. I need that uncertainity to drive me to do it. Thats why I do things whose outcome is uncertain. What good is doing somethin you already know. It should serve some purpose, and the dynamic variables shouldnt be under your direct control. Thats what life is about.
Life is so interesting coz we arent in control of it. Thats why its life. If we cud control it, it wudn’t be alive.
We still havent understood how to bring something to life.
But we know how to kill. Man has always known how to kill. But Life is uncertain. Thats why we value it.
Uncertainity springs forth from the uncertainity principle we studied in physics. We have never been told the importance of it. Infact, its a yardstick. Imagine the degradation of education, when somethin from which life springs forth is presented as a cold, gray, ugly formula. It has no relevance to anything real. The books we study have even abstracted Einstein. Newton cud be abstracted. He was rational. Einstein was the first person to be able to forcefully tell the world that there was somethin fundamentally wrong with the science we had grown comfortable with. Since then, things have changed. People have tried but failed to prove most of his things wrong.
What matters is not what he ended up saying. No, that doesnt matter. The way he thought, the way he saw things. that was the key. what his theories ended up being is just a consequence of his existence. his existence didnt depend on their coming forth. he lived in what he spoke of. he was “with it”.
we need to find it. rather just wake up to it. just realise it around us.
Budhhism says ” every human is born a Budhha. He just forgets how to be Budhha.”
Buddhism is all about remembering what we really are. Knowing what we really are. Buddha wasnt a person. He was a gateway to ‘reality’. That entity, the completeness is called Budhha. He personified it in the material world of us mental mortals.
We spend our whole life trying to be happy. If we cud just spend some time trying to understand what happiness is all about we wud look at things a lot differently.
