INSTANT SADHANA


A Sādhanā is a quest at the end of which the seeker is supposed to reach a spiritual realization therefore occuring in some hypothetical future time. Yet, like a mirage in the desert, for many seekers this realisation seems always further or like for Govinda in Herman Hess novel 'Siddhartha' it can well never happen. Since the spiritual realization means the end of our though-identity, it is comfortable for this fake and usurpative identity to, consciously or not, postpone this realization always further on the virtual stream of Time.
Indeed, since Reality is only met at the always renewed tip of the Present Instant, Time is what is preventing us to awaken to BEING in us, or Reality's INFINITE ISness, which is what we embrace on a spiritual path. There's no way for us to meet with what we ARE in the past or in the future, but only in the Present Instant. And of course no spiritual realization can take place if we are not consciously present to what we Really ARE now.
The human BEING's unity is made of two parts. The human part which is made of limits, and the BEING part which is Reality's INFINITE ISness. And just like a butterfly needs its two wings to fly, a human BEING's good functioning implies that we ARE fully conscious of our two parts, human and BEING. Now, no matter how damaged can be our human part by more or less violent experiences, and no matter with how much unresolved pains this human part is still loaded, by remaining at the tip of the Present Instant we remove the screen of our thought-identity and dis-cover the Reality of who we ARE at that precise moment.
This is only when we retrieve our BEING part, which is pure consciousness, that our human part engages into a natural healing process. But the good news is we do not need to totally heal our human part in order to experience our BEING part. What we must realize is that: perfection, which is the wholeness of INFINITY's ISness, always includes the imperfection of the forms through which it expresses itself. Therefore let's not be too captivated by our Sādhanā since realization can occur at each step of its path and we can awaken to the INFINITY of Reality's ISness right where we are. And we actually ARE at every step, no matter the degree of deterioration our human part can be suffering.
INFINITY has no kind of size or limit or shape, and therefore it can embrace all. It is absolutely one with the dust through which it expresses itself, so pure it is.
The only thing we have to do in our Sādhanā is to stop identifying with our thoughts and for this to happen the OBSERVATION of what IS in the Present Instant is a sufficient and immediate practice.
In the name of humility do not refuse INFINITY because the shape in which it presents itself to you doesn't suits your thought-identity's expectations.

A MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD

The IPCC warned us in its latest report, that we should bring back our CO2 emissions to 50% of what they were in the year 1990 and this before 2020, if we want to keep our planet within the 2° degrees. And the IPCC bases this prevision on the most optimistic scenario. Indeed, during the last decades, the scientists forcasts about Global Warming have been constantly revised upwards. The cascading effet is pretty uncertain and, for instance, we don't know the exact impact of CH4 emissions through the warming of the oceans and the melting of the permafrost. Lima Conference on Climate ends with ridiculous and criminal decisions about CO2 reduction: Reducing CO2 emissions from 40% by 2050 is just nonsense. You can no more haggle over with Global Warming that, for instance, you can haggle over with a fire that transforms your house in a furnace. You cannot say to the blaze: "stop, wait 20 minutes until the firemen arrive". The United States found $ 3000 billion just for I

DIRECTLY CAPTURING CO2 FROM THE ATMOSPHERE

Image
Direct air capture is the process of chemically scrubbing carbon dioxide directly from the ambient air, and then storing it either underground or in long-lived products. This new technology is similar to the carbon capture and storage technology used to capture emissions from sources like power plants and industrial facilities. The difference is that direct air capture removes excess carbon directly from the atmosphere, instead of capturing it at the source.  It is relatively straightforward to measure and account for the climate benefits of direct air capture, and its potential scale of deployment is enormous. But the technology remains costly and energy-intensive. It is often difficult to pin down costs for new direct air capture technologies, but a 2018 study estimates that it would cost about $94-$232 per metric ton. Earlier estimates were higher.  Direct air capture also requires substantial heat and power inputs: scrubbing 1 gigaton of carbon dioxide from the air could require ne

What can you do to save the planet Earth?

What can you do to save the planet Earth? You might have had this question popping up in your mind – “What can I do alone to save the environment?” Actually, there are thousands of people like you who have the similar thought in mind, amidst that dilemma and hesitation, no one’s taking a step. But you, alone, have the power to initiate, and those thousands will eventually follow you. No step is a small step, and every contribution matters in its own way. While caring for the planet isn’t a matter to be saved for June 5, however, it’s a good time to start today and take the pledge to do whatever you can, in order to achieve a sustainable environmental development. Organize a cleaning drive: That’s something you can easily do! You have organized parties before, this time, organize a cleaning drive. Call your friends, friends of friends, office colleagues, acquaintances and family members to be a part of this act. Gather in your neighbourhood or a popular market area and clea
