Life is indeed full of contradictions. The moment we think that we know it all, it comes up with more set of puzzles to solve. When the knowledge of Being focuses on free will, destiny plays its own role. The wisdom lies in taking as the amalgamation, but perhaps it is all a part of the same pole. After all, one aspect can only be realised when one has beheld its flipped side. Possibly that’s how we appreciate the exuberance in our lives. That’s how we concede the righteousness in the world, and that’s how we cherish the best times.

The more we delve deeper to understand how life operates, the more we get into the knowledge of seeing beyond the line. Sporadically it’s vital to realise that neither everything can be understood at a superficial level, nor can everything be explained at a deeper level as it is a journey that has its own pace of veiling and unveiling the science. That’s how the science of subtleness works. The subtle aspects of life teach us to appreciate anything and everything as it is designed to bring awareness to our life.

Even amid chaos, in-depth understanding allows us to go beyond the scenery. So, let go of what we are holding onto and let it all give us a perspective for the more profound wisdom, or let it dominate/control us and put us into the shackles of a lie. Ultimately, the choice is ours; what we choose today has a significant role to play for tomorrow, but if it depends on the preferences we make, then how life still doesn’t work the way we want sometimes. Essentially, situations and circumstances can never always be in our hands, so our responses to them have a lot to slice.

In a situation when you can be messed up, you may still feel unperturbed, and when you should be at peace, the annoyance within can even make the saccharine a bitter lime. Hence, what you seek outside, lies all within. Make it a beautiful place so that you can see the beauty shine.

All spiritual texts give us the wisdom of detachment; detaching from the outside world while being into it and separating from the upheavals of life while addressing them; then why is a bond of friend and family made for us, and why this attachment has caused a desire to be owned by us. The majority misunderstands the concept, hence considering detachment as an unrealistic expectation. Otherwise, it’s just explaining the idea of being owned by nothing so that nothing can dominate/control us. But just like the other waves in the ocean, we consider ourselves either a wave or a part of it, forgetting that we are an ocean full of waves, and hence, it’s our responsibility to design our life rather than life happening to us.

The irony is that every school teaches us to go behind logic, but how logic operates is never taught to us. Intriguingly, the universe has ways to conduct its logic, making us illogical at a level of logicality so that a world beyond logic could be unscrambled by us. Either the world has put us in a delusion that everything at times seems to be an illusion, or it is a perceived reality that we take as an illusion making it a mystery to be decoded by us.

In my opinion, ‘Real’ is either what we perceive that creates reality or what takes us from the unknown to the known, which helps us to meet our authentic selves making a reality of its own. After all, your personal reality is what makes your personality. So, what comes our way, let’s live it with all its contradictions as life is lived at its best when it is tasted in all its prospects.
