How To End Genetic Cycles
What being a part of the divine means is that you don’t have your own nonsense any more. Where does your nonsense come from? A bit from your parents. A bit from the society in which you live. The rest, you cook it up, yes? Yes or no? A bit from your genetics, a bit from the external impressions. Using these two things, you cook up the rest.
What comes from the external situations is all too much fragmented, bits and pieces. Maybe this information is useful for your survival, it is. What comes from your genes? Charles Darwin told we were a monkey. If you say, “My genetics decide who I am,” the monkey business will not end, ever, because even now, your DNA is only 1.23% different from that of a chimpanzee. Your evolution is only that much. The more you depend on your genetics, the more of a monkey you become. I say a monkey because if you go by your genetics you become cyclical. If you travel this, one moment if you’re not alert you will go off at a tangent. If you go like this, you may slow down, you may hasten, you don’t go anywhere.
Being on the path of the divine means, first thing to become free from your genetics. It is in this context we say Shiva. That means he has no parentage. He dropped it. He cleaned his mother and father out of him. No father, no mother, just him. Because genetics means repetition. Repetition means cyclical nature. Cyclical nature means you are going in circles, you are not going anywhere.
This I business, with you reading bits and pieces of it, and please stop that. Don’t read all this stuff, me and my consciousness and my witness and where is the witness, witnessing the witness, witness, witness, witness, witness, witness. You can go on endlessly, witness, witness is the witness, and witness, what does the witness witness, witness, what does the witness witness, witness. This is j a mental game. Ignorant people acting like they know. This is what happens. Philosophies will flash. Philosophies, the more philosophical a society is or the more philosophical a human being is, the more he is clearly declaring to the world that he is a pretender. What he does not know, he acts like it knows. Simple, practical people, they know they don’t know, and they’re proud that they don’t know. That’s a problem, but at least they know they don’t know.
Do not get into this trap of intellectualizing the existence. Very confidently you use this word existence, but do you know what is existence? Does anybody know what is existence? Does anybody know? Nobody knows.
