From Chaos to Creation.

From Chaos to Creation.

I saw this dead log and a new plant emerging from it on a hike.

What’s your reflection?

Life is life; it finds its way and expresses itself, whatever it takes to do that.

A random seed (out of millions produced by a tree) falls on an unimaginable place (a dead tree log), and turns into a thriving plant, with a bright future to turn into another beautiful tree.

The falling of a log was a chaotic event.

But it probably would never have been imagined ( who would ? ) that it would one day become food for a burgeoning plant.

Life is life; it never dies, it keeps playing with various forms of tremendous chaos and destruction, but it always manages to create something beautiful out of all that.

This life-giving Life is hidden within us, here and now.

If we can let go of our obsession with the dead matter that makes our bodies, we can connect with Life itself, which never seems to die.

Reflecting deeply on such events ( which are always all around us ) can make us realize the existence of this pure life and deepen our faith in this formless, timeless, and indestructible entity, knowing which, nothing else is left to know in this mrityudharma ( transient ) Sansar.

We cannot perceive it with our senses, but it is the progenitor of everything (us included).

Having faith in such an entity dissolves our Ego and brings seismic shifts in our lives in many ways.
