I stood before heaven’s gate like a proud falcon keeping eye
looking for food. I was looking for wisdom. The gate was closed. I screamed for
about 3 seconds but it felt like hours had passed. Then I realised that time
takes a complete different path in heaven. Maybe at god’s feet, it even ceases
to exist I thought. I screamed again a little and was left with a sore throat.
Then a sudden lightening thought struck my mind. I started sitting in padmasana
position and started meditating. My third eye began to shake and my soul began
to shake. I saw two monsters ahead of me. They ran towards me but I tried to
give them a handshake involuntarily. Then they somehow turned into angels and
entered my soul. I felt the inner gates opening and I started levitating. I
started seeing things I had never seen before. Rapidly I started creating a
universe of my own. But this universe felt so true and lively I could not deny
it. I started seeing the same heaven’s gate inside my mind. I said, “OPEN” and
then it opened slowly and it felt like it was completely distorting time.
Inside it was nothing but light. There was no any presence of god or any
angels. There was just light. I kept on meditating which felt like days but
still could see nothing but light. Light must be The God I assumed. “No!”, a
voice reached my ears. “You’ve meditated for so long and persevered hard enough
for my voice to reach your ears. Not many can achieve such a feat. You must
follow this light and march forward and things will be clear for you. You will
start seeing such amazing things then. So for now, just keep moving forward. Remember
that heaven and hell both are inside of you. Look at your heart like a still
clear water and you’ll start seeing everything.” Suddenly, I felt my body
touching the ground. I was still in front of heaven’s gate. Only a second had
passed, I realised.
As an evolving species, how much significant and accomplished are we? Homo Sapiens Sapiens is a species with high intelligence, and one of the major determining aspects for that, is our unique curiosity and ability to find new information. Altogether, many a different aspects of our intelligence validate our highest placement in the hierarchical composition among all the species living on Earth. However, we seem to live simultaneously with two of our very own contrasting natures. On one hand, we might be intelligent and significant in ways that we don't even yet realise. And on the other hand, we are so infinitesimally small in the universe, while causing such a damage to this planet and her ecosystem, that we seem morbidly stupid to the point where our existential value looks questionable in itself. We always seem to partake in the battle between these two natures. A shrub grows into its full capacity, so does a mountain lion. But when observing growth in Homo Sapiens, different d...
