The Winds

There is that indescribable energy that coexists with and within us all, dancing around the bend and appearing a quantum leap away sometimes. You must wait for it, prepare for it, smile at it, play with it so as to be able to find yourself standing at that magical place where everything is of the same perspective as everything else. You can never plan something totally forgetting it because your goals will not be reached at all whereas if you plan something completely respecting this energy, your goals will be met and more. This energy exists like how the wind is among us, moving things, breathing life, spilling magic. You must be at one with it to enjoy it, to enjoy life, to experience fully. If you see it as something to break free from you will have lost the point altogether yet those who do not even know of its existence are worser off as they would be thoroughly lost in ignorance.



This wind cannot be in the focus nor in the background. It cannot be analysed nor forgotten. It must be placed in perfect harmony with your decisions, your movements or else it will destroy every moment. This seems tricky but is actually simple because simplicity is the key to getting this right. Here is the actual tricky part: the winds of others. Some people are stormy, destructive winds for others and some people are calming and inspirational winds for some. It is the same theory but more emotional here because your own energy might be read wrongly by others when it should not be read at all. Once that happens and ego sets in, your grasp on the windy movements will be disrupted and your bearing and demeanour will undergo a change in substratum where the focus of everything moves around the hurt or frustration that is caused by the disalignment of the two winds.



With the energy that circulates the entire of existence I can remove my ego from it. I can take its hand and jump around in gleeful merriment. I know it does not judge me nor find judgement of any importance in living. It sees me and even if it doesn't, I know it sees itself. And somehow in that knowledge, it does not matter anymore because all I wanted was the truth. The truth of balanced thought over the truth of the limited circumstance. It is the winds of people that I am most fearful of. The evil that can be stormed up in an instance of insecure weakness. The thoughts and impressions that can be set for a lifetime due to an idealistic method of creating the world. Yet the vulnerability that lies within their hearts is what most breaks me for it can open itself so achingly to the enemy, using blood to draw him in, and then in one orgasmic release, shatter every bone in the enemy's body.



Most people might think it easier to handle the winds of others. I find it tough because the moment I embrace their energies I lose sight of the focus. Being sympathetic towards their cause might sacrifice my perfect self, and thus the inequality expels my friendship with the all-prevailing wind. For them who find it easier to manipulate the winds of people, theirs is no less unequal for the conceited self presides over the hearts of others. Anything can only become equal when there's any third item to the pair. Both focused on something else like a project or a thought.



Over all, I see that being strictly meditative and centered will mean to keep the focus as the vision, the method at the forefront, the camaraderie for the moments and music in the background. And that is how I shall keep my winds friendly all around. :)
