Infinity – Can you explain it please?

Infinity is very difficult to understand at the mind level because it is not just a concept, and the mind only understands concepts.

And mind itself is a product of the infinite consciousness.

A product cannot master the producer.

No Matter how smart a computer you make, the final key stays in your hands.

Pull the plug, and the computer is shut off.

Usually, looking at the vast expanse of the universe, we “think” that God must be big, bigger than the universe ( or universes ), etc.

But, what we are not realizing, is that imagining God ( Godliness ) ( Infinity ) to be that big requires a language of dimensions.

And dimensions are a product of the mind – which can perceive height, width, depth, etc.

So, calling Infinity BIG is only a reflection of our gullible minds.

No, infinity is not that simple or that easy to reach.

The word “infinite” relies on “finite” only – dependence, and Godliness is independent.

Once you go deep into meditation, the whole Sansar, the total mind, becomes extinct ( by withdrawing the awareness ), and only pure awareness remains.

In that pure awareness state, there is nothing to compare.

No mind, no Sansar, no dimensions, no universe ( or universes ), no time, no past, no future – nothing.

In that mindless – dimensionless state, to call that state – “BIG” – is meaningless because bigger than what?

This creates a perplexing problem that the mind cannot resolve.

It is a genuine problem for one who has experienced that state because to describe it, you have to use day-to-day language, which is also a product of the mind only.

So, the only way is to give up the mind and “see” what happens.

That’s why Buddha did not describe that state as an omnipotent, omnipresent state – as Hindus did.

He just described it as Nirvana – a shunya state, not an infinite state.

But both are right. Godliness IS both. And that’s the beauty of it.

It is nothing, and at the same time, it is everything.

Godliness is for “ experiencing only.”

It is a beautiful problem to have, which takes us closer to the mystical aspect of consciousness, and when someone wants you to describe it – the best way to do it is via silence.

He is everything, and at the same time, He is nothing.

To call Him everything makes Him BIG.

To call Him nothing brings Him to shunya state.

The answer lies in potentialities.

The seed is tiny and hides a potentiality of a tree.

But you can’t call a seed bigger than the tree, speaking at the dimension level.

But at the potentiality level, the fact is, it gives birth to a tree.

Similarly, the Shunya state is holding onto infinite potentialities, and it has the capacity to expand into millions of universes.

This is the enigma that makes the spiritual journey so beautiful.

It is one of a kind journey, unlike any other journey you have taken or will ever take.

I came back from a beautiful journey to Alaska’s interior and enjoyed it a lot, and yet one solo hike that I did in shunya state right after coming back proved better than one thousand Alaska trips.

Go within, where an unlimited treasure trove is hiding.
