We are born and all we can do is depend on the external environment.
It takes almost two decades of dependencies where we are trained to live in this complex world. But by the time we are independent, which is mostly financially, we are tangled in a host of problems as we were never taught what life is and how we go about it. And if you have gone deeper into solving your problems to reach the awareness level that even language doesn’t exist as mentioned in the previous articles with a realization that even life doesn’t exist without your being. So to be or not to be is the core of any existence.
Now to be outside your skin and in the external world requires language and objectives where all the problems start.
My sense of purpose and meaning in life really gets validated when I find someone who understands and perceives the life we are supposed to do. I really hope you have perceived from the previous articles that language is the foundation of almost everything. Perhaps the whole creation of this cosmos is a language intelligence. So the game of life is what and how you want it to be i.e. to be or to not to be.
But how do you figure out what to be? It is like defining what you are which is just your ego or in other words the behaviour we portray as a response to the external and internal stimuli. Internal stimulus is nothing but your brain’s conditioning developed over its lifetime which is a result of its memory, knowledge and experiences. So the game of life is basically figuring out what you are and how you want your life to be.
Hence the question of how to solve your problem takes the front seat. Here I would like to share what I articulated a few months back in another article: What if you don’t know how to swim?
So the game is to understand two sides of your existence – one who is aware of the consciousness is you and the one who has a physical form to live a human life in a definite time duration between birth and death. You don’t have any control over the former as it’s the game of Cosmos and you can’t do much about it, but observe yourself through the physical form and its senses where you face yourself as an ego or the state of the brain. Thus the definition of neuroplasticity which is the ability of neural networks in the brain to change through training and reorganization implies that you can take control over your brain and life through meditation, yoga and other conscious continuous actions. It is when the brain is rewired to function in some way that differs from how it previously functioned. This is the game of taking control over your ego and managing it for you to be as you want.
So is life and the universe a game? Yes, if you understand and perceive everything from the language I have been writing for you to help me. The game is to express your problem and solve it for you to create what you want. But what to express when you are not just a physical form and all you have is a self-awareness of the problems and solutions you have?
Here are the requisite perceptions you need to figure yourself and life out:
1. Understanding the separation of you i.e. consciousness and your physical form.
2. Understanding that everything you do outside your skin is to be inside your skin.
3. Understanding the game is using your consciousness to live in a physical reality.
During this transition, you basically rewire your brain using neuroplasticity and focus on what you want from life i.e. your physical form. Strengthening your sense of self and satisfaction of creating a life you always wanted.
As Rumi sang, ‘what you seek is seeking you’, and if you are seeking help finding you, you are the best person who can help yourself as you, the universe within is the help. With each passing moment, you are getting closer to what you are living for.
Be hungry for yourself!
