What’s the best way to create a forest?

A true, virgin forest is a natural phenomenon; it wasn’t created; it just happened. (Man didn’t even exist then.)
A creation requires mind, planning, and consideration of all foreseeable hindrances, along with possible steps to avoid them.
This, as humans, we know, and we understand.
But when it comes to the wilderness, nature, there is no mind, no planning, no calculations, no set goals; things just happen.
The forests we see right now are the result of millions of years of crazy, unexpected, unpredictable events interacting with each other, finally standing tall before us.
The workings of the human mind and the workings of nature are two distinct ways.
The human way is methodical, and nature’s way is chaos.
And yet, from such chaos, “creation” has ha…
Only when we start interpreting ourselves as only a phenomenon, only a happening (and not an individual self), do we really have understood ourselves well in the context of this wild, unpredictable, infinite existence.
While we are totally engrossed in “I” and “You”, duality of mine and yours, the non-dual wild river of life is passing us by.
While we are counting our gains and our losses, others’ gains and others’ losses, before we know it, death knocks on our door, and we leave, losing everything.
From a spiritual angle, losers in the sansar are losers, and winners in the sansar are also losers, because both are out of focus.
Buddha and Mahavir took to the streets with begging bowls, only to go beyond the mind and embrace life’s rawness.
We don’t need to do that, but at least start undermining the importance of the products of Sansar in our minds.
How long will you keep counting money, friends, and relatives?
How long will you keep relying on others’ praises and recognitions?
How long are you gonna keep vying for their company?
How long will you keep grieving your relatives’ loss?
And how long will you keep getting excited about births?
You did that every life you lived before.
Enough is enough.
Refocus your life.
Go beyond the births and deaths.
Tap into the formlessness.
Know your core, get reborn, where life has been flowing forever.
Take a dip in it and make your life worthwhile.
A humble but profound lesson from Forest, all in silence.
