UNDERSTAND HOW YOU LEARN THOUGH LIFE.

As once said by sages and mystics, life is one big illusion. This veil of forgetfulness is so dense that we don’t even remember what life lessons and experiences we designed for this life in the afterlife. When we are kids, our soul functions through its divine unmanifested nature. But as we grow, we keep accumulating incoherent stimuli from the environment and apply them in our lives through our unique combinations of perceptions and judgments. With time, our experiences start molding us into their image. If we detach ourselves from these experiences for once, how would we even define our identity? This identity itself is an illusion of what we saw, felt, did, owned, absorbed, and learned. Observe, who are we without having a back story to our identity? To track our divine unmanifested nature back, we must reverse the direction of life, forget all your accumulations, and remember ourselves as pure energy without these acquired identities. Consider this world as a giant flower and all its inhabitants as petals. The universe made everyone we come across in the image of this flower. They are what we are. Everyone comes as a mirror in our life to enable us to learn from the potential difference amongst ourselves and achieve balance. They act as a catalyst in the journey of our expansive internal self. We both become each other’s students and teachers in the experiences we exchange irrespective of their positive or negative orientation. We assimilate a major understanding and learning of life through the societal patterns which may comprise of relationships, community, culture, customs, languages, places, and so on. When the worldview is rigid, the vision and growth become narrower. For someone who is stagnant, they naturally exhibit the extremist side of the related social patterns. Trapped and deteriorated energy often becomes depressive or violent. If someone tries to defy or change something different from these societal beliefs, they become an outcast. Even in these interactive efforts, some lessons are, again, unique to everyone undergoing them. Our childhood and past life experiences greatly influence our behavior and interaction with outside stimuli. In a more nature-oriented place, we would spend our time playing in the depths of greenery, drenched in a lake full of mud, and have joyous laughter of careless childhood. Whereas in a fast-paced place, we would spend our time stuck in the confines of our apartment walls, playing video games or watching television obsessively. Our amusement will be enjoying sarcasm we innocently absorb from the interaction of our busy parents or tired siblings. They all stay in our memories and start functioning from the hidden gears of our minds. It is, thus, critical to be aware of these infinite dots which connect our life. We might end up finding a lot of clear answers for our messed up unasked questions. This is the depth of how powerfully we understand and design our lives.
