Was any one born
Knowing who he was
And for what he was born?
No Master,
No one is and no one was born
Knowing who he is or was
And for what he is or was.
My dear son,
Could anyone say that
He existed before he was born?
No Master.
No one hitherto could say or claim
That he existed before he was born.
My dear son,
Can anyone say that
He will exist after he is dead?
No Master,
No one could hitherto say or claim for sure
That "he" or "he fee" or "I feel" in him
Will have continuity and therefore
Will exist after he is dead.
My dear son,
Is anyone, or can anyone be,
Living all his life
With the same feel of him
Or with the same “I feel"
That he is or he was born with?
No Master.
First of all there was no
Specific feel of him or "I feel"
When one was born, so that
To have continuity to the same.
Further more to say,
No one is living
Or no one can live
All his life
With the same "he-feel" or “I feel"
That he is or he was born with.
No one can die too, Master,
With the same he-feel
Or with the same “I” feel
That he is or he was born with,
If at all.
Then, Master,
How to have continuity
For the "he-feel" or “I feel"
After death
Master,
Born was an innocent baby
Unknowing of what is what
With no specific he-feel or “I feel".
And dying is the one
Who became
Obama or a beggar
Or a businessman or Bill Gates
Or Modi or an old man
Or a criminal or a politician.
Master,
After growing up and becoming
Prime Minister or president
Or a beggar or an old man,
How can one have
Or how will one have
The same "he-feel" or the same "I feel"
Of an innocent new born baby.
There was no he or I when
One is or was born.
Then my dear son,
What is the “I”
That lives and that is living in one
While one is alive?
Master,
Is it not only an urge and feel of life
Or urge and feel used by life
To struggle, strive and survive
And by which life lives?
Is it not only an accidental feel
Of many factors coming together
In a living body?
Is not only the sharpness
Life found for itself
For fighting and penetrating
For survival?
Life needs to live and survive.
Like God as a must.
So everyone has that urge and feel
To live and survive.
Like God.
Dear my son,
What is life that is lived?
Master,
Is it not just repetition of
Drinking, eating and sleeping
And doing what all necessary
To ensure this sleep, eating and drinking
Is done again and again?
Is not life taking birth,
Living and dying
Because
Absolute life or God
Exists and survives
Or needs to exist and survive?
So life is lived only for life or God.
For the survival of life or God?
Dear my son,
Was there given hitherto
By any one
Any particular meaning and purpose to life
As equally acceptable and understandable
To the common sense of living ones?
No Master. Not at all.
Master,
Is not life’s meaning and purpose life only?
Like God is the meaning of God.
Is not life’s meaning and purpose only the life?
Like God is the meaning of God.
Is not life lived and died only for life?
Like God is existing only for and to be God.
Life has no meaning other than
That of life and its survival.
Like God has no other meaning
Than that of God.
Master, at least life’s meaning is not
The meaning of the works and jobs
Or activities of engagements
One is made to do for survival
Or for escaping or forgetting
The bigger question
Of meaning and purpose of life.
Like God's is not by his creations
And whatever he does.
After all, Master, life has to be
Seen and re-termed or redefined
As God only.
Dear my son,
Is “I” or “I feel” a constant
Which never undergoes any change?
No, Master,
“I” or "Feel" is only a constant
Dependent and relative
Which undergoes change
Every now and then
According to the change
In one’s life and life’s form
In life's going up and down.
As per the life’s own
Going up and down
I and the feel of I changes.
Then dear my son,
If “I” or “I feel” is not a constant
That has permanence,
Then how is the chance of
Rebirth for this “I” or “I feel”?
Master, No chance at all.
Rebirth is for life or God only.
No one is born with any specific “I”
Which has and which will have
Continuity till death at least.
And no one is dying with the same “I”
With which he is or was born.
And so itself
No one is going to be reborn
With any specific "I" or "I feel"
Since such an I or I feel doesn't exist
As a constant with continuity.
*********
However, dear my son,
Remember, there remains
Only one “I” and “I feel”Before each and every one’s birth
And after each and every one’s death.
That is the “I” and “I feel”
Of life that is absolute, not relative.That is the “I” and “I feel” of God, the totality
That is the “I” and “I feel” of the nature, the whole.
And that is the "I" and "I feel" of
Rebirths and rebirths.
Great continuity and flow
Of greater absolute life or God.
