Penmetsa Venkata Satya SURYA NARAYANA RAJU's Blogs >> self-inquiry. Religiosity.

In this Kartik
month awareness is overflowing.Just we have to allow it with a passive mind.
Many know the state of agitated mind only,so they do not know anything about
passive mind.Miracles happen with the passive mind.In deep sleep the mind is
passive and we are happy.The same happiness continues in the waking state
if we are in receptive passive state of mind.Divinity in the form of pure consciousness fills that passive empty cup of mind.Thought cannot comprehend this pure
consciousness.When there is ending of thought there is pure consciousness in
that empty mind.So all methods based on thought are futile to gain pure consciousness.All religions are belief systems and belief is thought.Belief never
takes us to the truth.On the contrary if we get rid of all beliefs and dogmas
suddenly we find ourselves in pure consciousness.Religiosity means dissolving
ourselves in the pure consciousness which is without any boundaries and so
limitless.Belonging to a certain religion or a branch of religion,sect is not
religiosity.Belonging to a particular thing happens when the mind is in ignorance
and blind.We cannot see light of the truth with a blind mind.To see the truth
mind must be without any conditioning.Conditioning makes us blind ans so we
cannot see the truth with a conditioned mind.Religion is a conditioning process
which makes the mind dull and stupid.So we must be free of religions if we
want to taste religiosity.To be one with the pure consciousness is real religiosity
and the nature of that pure consciousness is bliss.A blissful man always do
a right action because he has no self interest,motive,intention in his action.
If there is right action there is no hindrance to our innate happiness.
To live like that is real religiosity.Existence fulfills itself through us in this way.
This is the purpose of our earthly existence but not for pursuing petty things of
phenomenal reality which results in a life of constant conflict and strife.
This is the way of Buddha who says mind in ignorance(Tamasoma) is led
towards the light of consciousness(Jyotirgamaya),leaving the identity with
mortal body-mind complex (Mrutyorma) and establishing ourselves as
immortal pure consciousness(Amrutangamaya).
