Probability of Being

You can sing deepest songs of your heart with them, and they are always the best companions when you want to stay a little bit more into the state of wonderment.    Children are my favorite people on the planet. They are more planetary than worldly and that reminds me that the child state is the best state of being. If we observe small children closely, we will find that a child always narrates in the third person. Like, they will take their name and say about themselves that this boy/girl has done this…he/she was going there...and that shows a natural state of witness of the being.

I propose to experiment and use some information that is available through ancient knowledge and decide on some of the steps that we want to take. For example, it is said by many philosophers like Pythagoras, Socrates, Plato and also mentioned in ancient Indian 'Vedas' that through the study of microcosm, macrocosm can be known... 'yat pinde- tat brahmande' - the unit and the cosmos. A seeker can however think/meditate deeper on this question and try to find the answer of “who am I?”. For example, a recent interaction wi
