" I am not a philosopher. Hence I would not like my way of life to be ever called a ' philosophy '. "


I am not a philosopher.

The philosopher thinks about things.

It is a ' mind ' approach.

My approach is a ' no-mind ' approach.
It is just the very opposite of philosophising.

It is not ' thinking ' about things, ideas.

But,

' Seeing ' with a clarity
that comes when you put your mind  ' aside '.

when you see
through ' Silence ',
not through ' Logic '.

Seeing is not Thinking.

The sunrise is there.

If you think about it,
you miss it.

Because,

while you are thinking about it..
you are going away from it.

And in thinking
you can move miles away.
And thoughts go faster
than anything possible.

If you are seeing the sunrise,
then one thing has to be certain
that you are not thinking about it.

Only then you can see it.

Thinking becomes a whale on the eyes.

It gives it's own colour,
it's own idea to the reality.

It does not allow
the reality to reach you,
it imposes itself upon reality.

It is a deviation from reality.

Hence no philosopher
has ever been able to know the truth.

All the philosophers..
had been thinking about the truth.

But..

thinking about the truth is an impossiblity.

Either you know it or you don't.

If you no it,
there is no need to think about it.

If you don't,
how can you think about it?

A philosopher thinking about truth
is just like a blind man thinking about light.

If you have eyes,
you don't think about light.

You see it.

Seeing is a totally different process.

It is a by-product of ' meditation '.

Hence I would not like
my way of life
to be ever called
a ' philosophy '.

Beacuse,
it is nothing to do with philosophy.

You can call it
" philosia ".

The word
" philo " means " love ".

" sophy " means
" wisdom ", " knowledge ".

love for knowledge.

In " philosia ",

" philo " means same. love.

And  " sia " means for  " seeing ".

Not for " knowledge ".

But for " being ".

Not for " wisdom ".

But for " experiencing ".
