Why is it that we continually limit ourselves with psychologically confining labels? There is an allure to saying I am this or I am that. People love to define themselves in any way possible, in an attempt to know themselves. They say that they are empaths, depressed, religious, spiritual, etc. No one is any of these things, everyone contains the potential for experiencing these states of being. By stating that you have an overarching capacity to elicit only one of these states of being, you are affirming your resistance to change. You are attempting to find comfort in some stagnating property that you can cling on to. We all feel safe in redundancy, but redundancy leads to madness. Your inherent state of being is infinite change, any way in which you hinder that is an active force against your nature. It becomes a violence of the mind, a violence within oneself.

You are not any of these things. You may experience and become them temporarily. Cherish them when you do and know they will not stay. There is no need to linguistically confirm what you are feeling, other than exposing your fear of change. You are trapping your mentality in that state when you accept it as absolute. You are self limiting. The day you do not fear change is when all the labels will become meaningless.

It is optimal to always be open to the possibilities of what you might become. To limit this capacity is to whither away into what ever it is that entraps you.

The Age of Spiritual Enlightenment

There is no doubt, we as human beings are becoming more conscious on every level of our being. With that, we are moving towards “The Age of Spiritual Enlightenment” where we Awaken to our personal Truth and discover who we truly are.

To awaken to our personal Truth means to discover the source of who we are, and to recognize our deepest needs in this life... Who we are is not something someone can define for us, but must be discovered on our own personal journey. When we have an authentic experience of our own personal Divinity, we move in the direction of finding our Joy in life.

Many will become Healers and helpers to others because they understand that what each individual yearns the most – being conscious or not – is to live by our authentic expression.

A Man with four wives

Gautama Buddha said that each person has four wives or husbands in their lives.

To understand what he meant, you should first read the short story of ‘A Man and His Four Wives.’

“Once there was a man who had four wives. According to the social system and circumstances of ancient India, it was possible for a man to have several wives.

The Indian had become ill and was about to die. At the end of his life, he felt very lonely and so asked the first wife to accompany him to the other world.

‘My dear wife,’ he said, ‘I loved you day and night, I took care of you throughout my whole life. Now I am about to die, will you please go with me wherever I go after my death?’

He expected her to answer yes. But she answered, ‘My dear husband, I know you always loved me. And you are going to die. Now it is time to separate from you. Goodbye, my dear.’

He called his second wife to his sickbed and begged her to follow him in death. He said, ‘My dear second wife, you know how I loved you. Sometimes I was afraid you might leave me, but I held onto you strongly. My dear, please come with me.’

The second wife expressed herself rather coldly. ‘Dear husband, your first wife refused to accompany you after your death. How can I follow you? You loved me only for your own selfish sake.’

Lying in his deathbed, he called his third wife and asked her to follow him. The third wife replied, with tears in her eyes, ‘My dear, I pity you and I feel sad for myself. Therefore I shall accompany you to the graveyard. This is my last duty to you.’ The third wife thus also refused to follow him to death.

Three wives had refused to follow him after his death. Now he recalled that there was another wife, his fourth wife, for whom he didn’t care very much.

He had treated her like a slave and had always shown much displeasure with her. He now thought that if he asked her to follow him to death, she certainly would say no.

But his loneliness and fear were so severe that he made the effort to ask her to accompany him to the other world. The fourth wife gladly accepted her husband’s request.

‘My dear husband,’ she said, ‘I will go with you. Whatever happens, I am determined to be with you forever. I cannot be separated from you.”

There is a powerful message imbued in this tale. Once you understand its meaning, you’ll see the integrated wisdom inside.

This is how Buddha concluded the story:

‘Every man and woman has four wives or husbands. What do these wives signify?’

The First Wife or Husband

The first ‘wife’ is our body. We love our body day and night. In the morning, we wash our face, put on clothing and shoes. We give food to our body. We take care of our body, like the first wife in this story. But unfortunately, at the end of our life, the body, the first ‘wife’ cannot follow us to the next world.

As it is stated in a commentary, ‘When the last breath leaves our body, the healthy color of the face is transformed, and we lose the appearance of radiant life. Our loved ones may gather around and lament but to no avail. When such an event occurs, the body is sent into an open field and cremated, leaving only the white ashes.’ This is the destination of our body.

The Second Wife or Husband

What is the meaning of the second wife? The second ‘wife’ stands for our fortune, our material things, money, property, fame, position, and the job that we worked hard to attain. We are attached to these material possessions. We are afraid to lose these material things and wish to possess much more. There is no limit. At the end of our life, these things cannot follow us to death. Whatever fortune we have piled up, we must leave it.

We came into this world with empty hands. During our life in this world, we have the illusion that we obtained a fortune. At death, our hands are empty. We can’t hold our fortune after our death, just as the second wife told her husband: ‘You hold me with your ego-centered selfishness. Now it is time to say goodbye.’

The Third Wife or Husband

What is meant by the third wife? Everyone has a third ‘wife’ or ‘husband’. This is the relationship between our parents, sister and brother, all relatives, friends, and society. They will go as far as the graveyard, with tears in their eyes. They are sympathetic and saddened…

Thus, we cannot depend on our physical body, our fortune, and our society. We are born alone and we die alone. No one will accompany us after our death.

The Fourth Wife or Husband

Sakyamuni Buddha mentioned the fourth wife, who would accompany her husband after his death. What does that mean? The fourth ‘wife’ is our mind [or Alaya consciousness]. When we deeply observe and recognize that our minds are filled with anger, greed, and dissatisfaction, we are having a good look at our lives. The anger, greed, and dissatisfaction are karma, the law of causation. We cannot be separated from our own karma. As the fourth wife told her dying husband, ‘I will follow you wherever you go.’

The Seeker and the mysterious Stranger (Part 2 of 7)

2. The fate of Humanity

“No, please don't tell me another joke,” the Seeker begs the mysterious stranger. “I am still in the process of recovering from the last one.”

The mysterious stranger clears his throat:

“Well then, let us get serious... Since millennia, humanity has followed the same old pattern. Unable to change for the better. Repeating the same mistakes over and over again.”

“Oh no... What have I done,” the Seeker mumbles, regretting their decision immediately. “Should have went with the joke.”

“Look at what we have done to the world,” the stranger continues.

“The earth is bleeding. Wildfires, mass extinction, pollution. Look at what we have done to each other. All these wars, all these atrocities... Hate, greed, power and violence... You may deny it, you may ignore it, but deep within, you are well aware, that there is something going horribly wrong with us.

Don't you ask yourself, how any of this makes sense?! The world is such a beautiful place, yet all of us are suffering... Can't you see how paradoxical that is? To live in a world, so colourful, so wonderfully vibrant, where beauty can be seen in all of nature... And yet at the same time, we have made this experience here on earth insufferable.

So we should start to ask the question, why we have allowed this to happen. We need to understand, why humanity has trapped itself in this pattern of destruction and why, after all this time, we are still unable to escape it.

As a species, we may have evolved biologically, we may evolved technologically, but inwardly, we have remained same. We are still the same limited, selfish, violent creatures. So self-centred. So destructive. So separated. Always in conflict with another. Always dominating each other. We are selfishly running from our fears and chasing our desires, without caring about the harm, we are causing to our brothers and sisters. ”

“Well it's just in our nature,” the Seeker argues dismissively. “It's not like there's anything, we can do about this.”

The stranger chuckles:

“Ah yes... The same excuse we have been telling ourselves since generations. 'There's nothing we can do, so there's no reason to even question it'... So we just keep on ignoring our inherent problems, because thinking about them is uncomfortable.

Listen Seeker, it's about time we face reality. If we continue on this path, the story of humanity will end as a tragedy. Surely, the earth will at some point regenerate from all of the damage we have done. Certainly after a couple of millennia the climate will balance itself out, nature will adapt... However if we continue following the same direction, Humanity will face extinction.”

“This might be for the better,” the Seeker suggests. “You yourself just listed some of the reasons. We are parasites. It's better to cut off an arm, before the sickness harms the entire body.”

“And you just simply accept that,” the stranger questions. “You believe that these reoccurring patterns are just in our human nature. That they are set in stone. Let's look at it objectively. We are animals, mammals, just as monkeys. But why aren't any other animal species as destructive as we are? Why is nature in balance, while we cause unbalance? Why is the universe in complete order, while we are causing disorder? What is the root of our collective and individual problems?”

“I don't know,” the Seeker sighs. “And I don't care... It might be in our genes... It might be in our culture... It's not like we could change anything about this. There have been countless religions and ideologies, but nothing has helped us to improve. So why even try... It's too late anyway... Yeah we might die out... So what? “

The stranger sheds a tear. “You can't see it. I wish I could show it to you. This beautiful story of humanity. This great song of love and hate, of suffering and laughter, of beauty and bitterness. This wonderful human experience.

Can't you understand that we do have a role play in life? Just as the insects, the birds, fish, plants and mammals are playing their role in nature, we have a role to play as well.

Can't you see, how boring the earth would be without us? Who else would there be to gaze at the stars and give them meaning? Who else would stare at the rising sun, the trees, the clouds and the mountains here on earth and be amazed by the beauty of existence, if it weren't for us?

Do you truly believe, that there's nothing worth saving in humanity? Are you really content with our story to end so soon?”

The Seeker groans in discontent. “Listen here fellow. I have no idea, where you are getting at. I agree with you, that it would be sad indeed, but humankind will die out eventually. So why should it matter, if it happens in a hundred years or in a thousand years? We are living on a tiny planet in the vastness of space. Our extinction means nothing to the universe. Our existence is completely meaningless. So why, for fucks sake, does this even matter?”

The stranger smirks.

“Yes, Earth might be just a tiny, blue speck in the vastness of space... But it's our speck. It's our home... Why should you care, how large the universe is? You are living here on earth. You might believe, that the universe is indifferent about your experience as a human being. You might believe yourself to be small, worthless or irrelevant, but in the story of humanity you aren't. You are an integral part of humanity. You are shaping the collective consciousness with every thought, emotion and action. Why do you question your role in the universe, when you don't even see your role here on Earth**?**”

The Seeker gets annoyed:

“I don't care about humanity. I don't even care about the earth. I have my own worries, my own problems to take care of. I have bills to pay... So why should I even make the effort?”

The stranger takes a deep breath:

“Have you ever wondered, dear Seeker, whether your individual problems may be related to our collective problems?”
