As all spiritual Guru’s and columnists like Mendonca,Nadkarni, and philosophers, keep stating that our life and our body is a living sacrifice - holy and unholy things will happen. Suffering is not punishment but part of the natural order of the Universe. As the Greek philosopher Epicurus stated in his philosophy~ pleasure and pain are past of survival till we decay and die to return to earth.
Only humans brood about it, because we fear and believe in God. The Universe is an interaction of atoms and even God cannot stop this. Religion propagates the theory of causality and spreads it like a disease. But when you embrace the love of nature in its glory - it converges and integrates into your self and you become part of the whole Universe.
Epicurus’s panacea, called Tetrapharmakos postulates this. Do not have any fear of god; sustenance and shelter is for everyone but don’t be greedy, if there is no pain then we do not need pleasure - death means nothing, when we exist death is not present and when death is present we no longer exist. Illness pain and pleasure are always transient, but worry is the dose of poison that prolongs it, and will add to your misery.
In your depressive moments look at nature, the sounds of birds chirping, water gushing from a river, surf breaking on the ocean, leaves rustling, the breeze whistling through the woods, the pit patter of rain drops, the bees buzzing and …crickets singing. Take a hard look and focus on the beauty, simplicity and a visceral emotional pleasure will cure your misery.
The depths and dimensions of nature can only be fathomed if you realize where to look, since otherwise it remains as an abstract object since no forms are recognizable to the untrained state of mind. Nature has a cure for everything; nothing perishes, but just takes another form. Nature is the concrete representation of the nebulous energy fields in the universe that is immeasurable and takes many forms.
When a plant sprouts there is energy around it, this hidden power, energy is vital for curing us also. We must tap into this source differently according to our ailment or misery.
Its time to celebrate, like the advertisement of the soft drink “Thumbs up” (Rival to Coke) “taste the thunder” and take your pick of the sensuous perspective. Nature is freedom from all our worries and misery, there is no better cure all.-Vinay-
