生命是渺小的！分享給大家一些新的認知～～
問：親愛的古儒吉，要如何才能忘掉那些已經(jīng)不再在我們生命中的人？
古儒吉：擴展你對你自己、對生命和對這宇宙的視野。這宇宙已經(jīng)存在至少有190億年了，而它是十億銀河系之一。如果你觀察宇宙，太陽系就只是一個小點。
有幾百億的銀河系，其中之一便是我們的銀河。所以銀河是非常渺小的，而在那之中，太陽系不過是一小點，而在那一小點內(nèi)是我們的地球，而在地球內(nèi)才有你的存在！你必須拿放大鏡去看，當你看到時，你已經(jīng)離開人世了?。ㄔ谶@兒是指，宇宙的浩瀚對比于我們的存在）。
什么是你的生命？在這多層面的宇宙下，你的星球是那么微小，而你就更加地微小。
另一個因素是時間。在數(shù)百億年間，有數(shù)百億人曾經(jīng)到過這地球。目前地球有七十億人口，每天有許多生命誕生和有許多逝去。那你的生命又是什么？就像在一眨眼，你已經(jīng)逝去了！當你從這比較廣大的角度去看你的生命，你會明白它不算是什么！
你在這個叫地球的星球活了80年。其中你花了40年睡覺，花了10年在洗手間，花了10年吃東西， 花了15年工作。而你人生中清醒的時間是那么地少。
這個「我、 我、 我」是甚么？它根本不算什么！想想看，你便會明白生命是渺小的。
每天有無數(shù)的想法，在你腦中來來去去。你抓住某些想法。你無法抓住所有的想法。如果你抓著所有的想法，那你會進精神病院的！
當你從較廣大的角度去看生命，所有的憂慮都會消失，而新的層面便會出現(xiàn)。
現(xiàn)在當你進入小宇宙，它甚至更刺激。腦內(nèi)有數(shù)百億的細胞，每天有許多細胞在誕生也有許多細胞死亡。在你的胃里有 50,000多種細菌。在你的額頭的每條皺紋就有三個不同的螨類部落。它們有各自的部落；不會越界。
在印度，人們會用香灰在額上畫三條線，我以前常想為何他們要如此做，但是現(xiàn)在科學家說在那三條線內(nèi)各有不同的螨類部落，而它們都十分不同的。
同理，在鼻尖有很多種的細菌！科學家仍然為此感到困惑！在鼻尖可以探測的數(shù)據(jù)比我們的DNA還要多?？茖W家仍然無法理解鼻尖可以提供多少資料。當你越深入小宇宙就發(fā)現(xiàn)越多！這令人費解！
拿原子為例，在原子內(nèi)的空間就好比銀河系之間的空間。一個原子的99.99%是空間！我們體內(nèi)的細胞也是一樣。我們體內(nèi)的細胞只是空洞的空間而已。
不論你采取科學或是靈修的路徑，你都會到達同一點。兩者說的都是相同的事情，它全都是空間。這是十分有趣的。
最近在美國醫(yī)學期刊 (American Medical Journal) 有篇文章報導說，如果一個人規(guī)律地連續(xù)做 8 周的靜心，腦部的結(jié)構(gòu)會改變，而且灰質(zhì)增加。靜心有許多的好處。
光是研究基因就夠引人入勝 ！你知道在一個人類的基因里面，你可以找到其他所有的基因。其他每一種動物的基因也出現(xiàn)在人類的基因里面！你可以利用你體內(nèi)的一個原子制造出一只大象。人類的身體那么完整，你可以從它制造出所有其他的基因。這是多么的引人入勝。
當有如此神奇的事情存在時，還有什么要擔憂的？我甚至都忘了你的問題！
Q：Dear Gurudev, how to let go of people who are no more in our life?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:
Expand your vision about yourself, about life and about this universe. This universe has been there for at least 19 billion years, and it is part of a billion of galaxies. If you observe the cosmos, the solar system is like a dot.
There are billions of galaxies and one among them is our Milky Way. So the Mily Way is very small, and in that, the solar system is a dot, and in that there is our planet Earth, and in that there is you! You have to take a lens to see and by the time you see, you're already gone! (here meaning, the magnanimity of the universe in comparison with our existence).
What is your life? In this multi-verse, your planet is insignificant and you are even more insignificant.
Another factor is time. In so many billions of years, billions of people have walked this planet. There are seven billion people on this planet today, and many are being born every day and many are dying. Then what is your life? It's like a blink of the eye, and you're already gone! When you see your life from this bigger context, you realize that it is nothing!
80 years you live on this planet called Earth. Out of that, 40 years you spend sleeping, 10 years you spend in the bathroom, 10 years you spend in eating, 15 years you spend in working. The waking period in your life is so small.
What is this 'Me, me me?' It is nothing! Think and you will realize that life is insignificant.
Everyday billions of thoughts come into your brain and then they go. You hold on to some thoughts. You can't hold on to all the thoughts. If you hold on to all the thoughts you will be in the mental hospital!
When you see life from a bigger context all the worries disappear and a new dimension opens up.
Now when you go into the microcosm, it is even more exciting. There are billions of cells in the brain and many are being born every day and many are dying. There are 50,000 types of bacteria in your stomach. There are 3 different colonies of mites that live on each line on your forehead. They have their colonies; they don't cross their lines.
In India, people would put three lines of ash across their forehead, I used to wonder why, but now scientists say that those three lines have colonies of mites and they all are very different.
Similarly, on the tip of the nose there are so many types of bacteria! Scientists are still baffled! The information got from the tip of the nose is even more than what they can get from the DNA. Scientists still haven't understood how much information the tip of the nose can provide. When you go deeper and deeper into the microcosm there is so much! It is baffling!
You take one atom, the space there is like that between the galaxies. An atom is 99.99% empty space! The same is the case of the cells in our body. The cells in our body are just empty space.
Whether you take the route of science or that of spirituality, you will reach the same point. Both say the same thing, that it is all space. It is very interesting.
Recently there was an article published by the American Medical Journey which said that if a person meditates regularly for 8 weeks, the structure of the brain changes and the grey matter increases. So many benefits come out of meditation.
Just learning about genes is fascinating! Do you know that in one human gene you can find all other genes.Every other animal is present in one human gene! You can create an elephant using one atom from your body. The human body is so complete that from it you can create every other gene. This is all so fascinating.
When such things are there, what is there to worry? I even forgot your question!
