Know your True Self

One fish said to the other: “Do you believe in this ocean that they talk about?”

This ancient Chinese saying well illustrates how narrow our vision of the world and the universe can be. We all see the world form our limited perceptual framework. Whether it be an African, Asian, or an American, we all perceive through the senses we have. From our knowledge of science, we know so many things are just not what they appear — earth is not flat, the ground below us is not stationery and the sun doesn’t rise in the east.

The fact is that we see and hear what we can and not what the reality is. The world is like an unprocessed data, which is yet to be interpreted by us. In other words we can say that the unrevealed reality is just like an FLIP BOOK (which Ishaan made in Taaren Zameen Par), and what we are interpreting is just a single page of that flip book which is of no true meaning. We cannot interpret the whole reality until and unless we start perceiving things beyond that is visible to us.

And the factor which is surely acting as a barrier in our interpretation is our THOUGHT and EMOTION. We are very far from the reality because we are more conscious about the external environment, and we have lost connection with our true self. Well, an attempt to interpret the reality will not change the reality itself, but it will help us live with great joy and happiness.

KNOW YOUR TRUE SELF, OTHERWISE YOU WILL LOSE YOUR IDENTITY
