Delusion is a sort of demonic force. People’s original mind is pure but it becomes perverted due to delusion and other karmas.
Self-inquiry is the process and the goal also. ‘I am’ is the goal and the final reality. To hold to it with effort is self-inquiry. When spontaneous and natural it is realisation.
O Lord of all, hail unto Thee! The Soul of all, causing all acts, enjoying all, all life art Thou! Lord of all pleasure and delight!
It is difficult to discuss the beginning of the Universe without mentioning the concept of God… It is quite possible that God acts in ways that cannot be described by scientific laws. But in that case one would just have to go by personal belief.
Lao Tan said, “I was letting my mind wander in the beginning of things.”
“What does this mean?” asked Confucius. Lao Tan said, “It means to attain Perfect Beauty and wander in Perfect Happiness. He who attains Perfect Beauty and wanders in Perfect Happiness may be called the Perfect Man.”
