"Project"....
Interesting "concept"....
Quite a few,
keep away from such burdensome concepts in life 😜 ( just enjoy, as much as possible, and get lost.... they decide to be carefree... byproduct is complacency)
A few "imbibe" the concept "project" and think..... "I must do something worthwhile 🙏"
Among those who appreciate the concept "project"( by any other word too....to describe it), a few, try to look deeper.....
These people, try to distinguish between me-and-others ( duality). Sacrifice, seems to be about a "project" in favor of "others".
The ones who feel "me first"...look at it in 2 ways.... the skilled way of dealing with others( including material things). For them, an other concept opens up... "career" ( building up of it )... it leads to amassing wealth, and/or, knowledge as a PhD, professional, scientist etc...
These "classifications" overlap each other....
Rare few bother about the "core" being within-a-'me'.... this rarity is owing to perceptional levels, focus and persistence. Such few look at " highest human possibility" ( it invariably leads into a spiritual path)...
The intangible force, energy called life, is assigned different "names" like soul, रूह, aatma etc... 'spirit' some how paved way to be called spirituality, as a pursuit of knowing more about spirit. Very few "reach" the ultimate. The tragedy on a spiritual path is, either you reach it or you dont... no halfway scores 😜... 99% is as good as 0%
Long ago, in ancient Bharat, a whole society decided to adopt, and bequeath a lifestyle which invariably aimed at spiritual growth, no-matter what other-pursuits( projects) are undertaken by any individual. This "lifestyle" never needed a name, till invaders found it difficult to 'refers to our society. That is how, Hinduism got its name as Hindus, for the followers of this life style.
Today, only a few remnants of this rich lifestyle is being followed by a few, forgetting its purpose. 🤣
It is therefore that....the present style of Hinduism is merely offering a "sense of security" only.....instead of leading us unto liberation/moksha/enlightenment/whatever..... the "idea" of seeking that sense-of-security is a copypaste from "religions(religaire) around the world... Hinduism (if continued in its present form), will fail miserably ( it ought to fail) very obviously too, because, its very (original) nature is opposed to that of a "religion". Religion offers security not freedom. Irreligious Hinduism sets our spirit free from human-bondage 😜...
( i got trapped into spirituality, even before I had the ability to conceptualize anything... so, the idea of "project" got deflected away from me, baba projectile called spirituality 😜)
Where do we stand in this mess of projects, deadlines, lifelines, lifetimes etc????
A projectile, yours
