As far as we are concerned, humans are the most sophisticated living beings for their survival on this planet. Because no other organism has the intelligence that we have. We are developing rapidly. Our mortality rate is far better than any other creature on the planet and our comforts are increasing day by day. We are the most comfortable generation of people to have ever lived on this planet. The rub is that we are definitely not the most joyful or the most loving or the most peaceful creatures.

Because human nature is such that we always yearn to be something more than what we already are right now. We are all seeking to become infinite; the only problem is that we are seeking it in installments. Imagine that you were locked up in a small room with first-class privileges, however comfortable it may be, you still long to be free of it. After a month, if you are released into a bigger room, then you will be the happiest person on the earth, but soon the same longing to break the boundary will return.

When you become aware of this fact, that your brain is playing with you, then my friend, may you find peace. And becoming aware and just knowing are two different things, knowledge is just like downloading an application that every PC can do, but awareness is like installing the application only a sophisticated PC can do and awareness comes out of the experience.

The biggest mistake is that we humans think of ourselves as supreme. The so-called “reality” we see is just our perception, like a snake can see only a couple of colors and it has the ability of thermal vision, this set of senses makes it really different. An Antelope can see the rings of Saturn in a clear night sky because of its 10x vision, a snake can’t say Antelope is wrong because it can’t see it, and in the same way Antelope can’t judge the snake because that’s what it can see. Here both of them have different senses and very different realities. The same thing is happening with us humans, we are slowly separating ourselves from nature, everything humans do becomes artificial and the remaining is natural. “We are a part of nature” but unfortunately, we forgot this a long time ago. I don’t understand why we are treating ourselves as supreme creatures. Just like a Snake and Antelope, we are humans and nothing more than that. Our supremacy is in becoming conscious of the fact that we are nothing but a small part of nature, so small that we can’t even imagine our position in this enormous void space-time, where your existential period is not even 0.000000000001% of the age of the universe.

One also becomes supreme when he becomes conscious of the fact that happiness, sadness, depression, trauma, everything you think of is just in your head. It always depends on how we perceive it, just like the realities. Another thing that makes our lives miserable is our inability to stay in a confused state, where we need to work on the possibilities and stop our prejudices from coming to a conclusion without knowing everything.

Till 340 BC everyone believed the earth was flat, later Aristotle found out that eclipses are caused due to the earth coming between the sun and moon and the earth’s shadow was always round, it's possible only if the earth was round. If the earth was flat, the eclipse would have been a horizontal line. Whatever we know is just a perception, so there can’t be anything called reality. “There is no such thing called reality, there are only possibilities”.

“Consciousness is nothing but realizing that we know nothing” and being confused is a better stage than being confident by ignorance that came out of the confusion because the conclusion is killing the possibility of knowing. When you realize all this from your subconscious roots, then you are going to create a void in your head and that void is going to lead you to the ultimate consciousness.
