Life, it is said is a journey. If it is so journey towards what? How do we realize it? As we are born and grow up as an adult and continuing to live experiencing various stations of life - childhood, teenage, adulthood, married life, oldage unconsciously we educate ourselves and get to realize many things in life, of life and may be beyond life. In our experience of life we are exposed to apart from the life experiences of one's own self, the experiences of fellow human beings and also of other creatures around us. Human being keeps learning from all this.
Ever since life started on earth, man has been studying life and still continues to learn and evolve. He discovered many ways of living, discovered the purpose/ no-purpose of living, wrote many books and some of them became religions or ways of life. And there have been so many individuals who personally discovered the best ways of living, seemed to have realized the purpose of living and the process still continues. Some of the ways of living resulted in mystic paths or spiritual paths that seem to show a better way of living and evolution.
However each human being has to realize himself/herself, their purpose of life, what is the journey about and towards what is the journey. The entire experience that human being achieved so far helps in some way or the other for one to navigate through this life in a fulfilling way.
From my life, and my study of life and my experiences so far ceratainly realize that Life is a Journey. A Journey
From Birth to Death through Childhood, Adulthood, Old age
From Animal nature to Human nature to attaining Divine nature
From Ignorance to Knowledge
Evolving from the lowest to the highest Consciousness.
From Finite to Infinite.
From Limited to the Unlimited and so on.
The problem before every human being is how to fulfillingly complete this journey to reach the desired destination. Who can teach this? Only the Creator should be able to do it. But He is not accessible. Then who can teach? A Guru or Master who has successfully made it. Even he is NOT accessible so easily. Because it is so difficult to choose a Real Master or Guru. Then who will teach? It is Life itself. Life itself would teach how to live properly.But if it is left to Life, the lessons are very hard and much time is lost. And so the need for a Guru or a Master.
We shall see in the next blog as to how to get access to the Real Guru or Master.
