Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend.

Mind is like water ,and that's a powerful thought that came my way.Was I going its way or did it come my way ,this question always confuses me . and You tell me the answer to that ? water is a universal solvent and its one one the 5 elements and its every where and Mind is like what ?water.
Take a class of pure water in a transparent glass and imagine that's your mind and the transparent here is your reflection of life.this is like birth stage of humans ,no consciousness,no feelings,no thoughts, plain and pure as god him self and filled with infinite love.
see a child in his eyes and you will know what I am talking about and now we will separate god and human from this child and will make him insanely human,but how ? remember the pure water transparent glass,Keep the glass in your back yard ,under a tree for a week and make sure its open and no protection or cover should be placed …. ding dong AFTER ONE WEEK
The pure water is little bit green,covered with some dry leaves,dust and all possible impurities in it and there you go an average human ,oops I forgot clean the glass from outside make it shine and it should appear like a diamond full of shining ,just to cover the impurities in it .. and that's an average person for me….
No body bothers what happened to that pure water and every one knows every glass is filled with green water and they think that's normal and one day completely forget that pure water exists and they will live life happily ever after.. how wonderful?how sick!
does this story makes any sense to you at all ? yes ?no? so what?
human mind is gifted ,destined to be pure water forever but impurities make it useless ? wait a minute even mud water is useful for washing(WHAT)?
pure water(birth) –make it impure(LIFE) --- again try to make it pure (enlightenment)
Enlightenment is the sole and ultimate purpose of life ,no I am not saying it all the religions in world are saying it ,ok majority of religions are saying it.To suffer and endure problems is human nature says Buddha.
Some people proved it wrong no not about what Buddha said,but about the pure impure theory ,Mother Teresa proved that from birth to death one can be pure,Swami Vivekananda proved it and so you can ..
Did I mentioned the impurities : you are gonna completely disagree with me but truth had always been a bitter pill to swallow,
Family,religion,caste,regions,My country your country thing,color,gender,and many more things.. tell me what are the topics that people didn't fight,they can fight literally on any topic.
Indo-China,Indo-Pakistan,Idol-Non Idol, Color,Tibet issue,from international issues to fights between wife and husband,between brothers for Property,world is completely filled with impure water .
What we forgot is we are all humans living on this gods green/blue planet,with one and only one life ,not to bother about heaven or hell , we have to make most of this life,love and compassion,gratitude,and tons of humanity is what we need today ,I don't want Millions ,I want Millions of people opening up their mind ,thinking broadly about life .
Sharing is what makes life beautiful,East gave the world ‘0’(zero),in return they gave us computers , no one country or person is self sufficient, don't populate and pollute your mind with all these material things.. fill it with love,compassion,gratitude for humanity .. life’s so so so beautiful ,cherish it ,live it,enjoy it share it ……extend hands for fellow humans ,there is one Mother Theresa,one Gautama Buddha hiding in you, its time to wake them up .. your world needs you ….
Oh I wrote a emotional lengthy post, hope you liked it ,please let me know what you think about it…
