Reality Vs Idealism

Reality is looking, experiencing and feeling the things around as it is. It’s the ability of perceiving things in the frame of the source itself, which otherwise the reality has no meaning but become only relative reality. I doubt the existence of reality and I feel it’s a dogma. Because nobody knows what is real and what is not. It’s only the perception which most of the times depends on the frame of reference which we look at. The frames of reference vary from person to person where he belongs to, the kind of environment they grew up, their genes and everything surrounded by them so far. So, when the frames are different, the way each look at something different and the reality is nothing but a perception and hence become relative for measurement.

So, the term absolute we are talking about (Reality) is never so. However, Considering the experience, knowledge of the people who gained the ability to see things as they are can perceive the reality and act upon it. This needs lot of patience, practice and power to live life without attachment from any source and able to break through all the frames that the world creates around.

Idealism is perfection with which we do things in consideration with the absolute values, ethics and morals that our ideologies since generations taught us. Again, what is ideal is may not be ideal to others as each is different with respect to their ideologies which has been penetrated and inculcated in each and every nerve of the people.

Reality is wrt a person and idealism is wrt a race. Both are different for different people depending on who both the individuals are. So, the distinction between reality and Idealism comes when the perceptions of one person from one race meets the perceptions of other person from another race. Where the frame of reality is different and the frame of ideologies are different. So, whats true for one person may be true for another or false for another based on what the other person is.

The one who can control all the senses and able to absorb the power of nature and feels it can understand the reality and idealism and their difference in all situations. It’s the non attachment with the world which breaks the barriers and moves towards the idealism and breaks the barriers between different ideologies and brings all of them to one. The one who can feel both of these can enjoy each and every moment of life as he can connect to the nature all the time and able to see it from the frame of nature itself.

It absolutely make sense !

That is the only reason why we require knowledge, wisdom to see things as it is.

Reality and Idealism => The pure form of these things would be the invisible force of the universe and its response to our actions. Some gave a structure to that force and call it God. We'll only be able to feel/find/experience that force existence only with lot of wisdom - Knowing Self - It means when you acquire all characteristics of god.

This is more of a spiritual topic .. Only the creator could see the things as it is .. Who else can see .. May be monks / Rishis / the Great meditators .. May be we should know the process of creations to feel / experience the reality and idealism .. Even with ultimate knowledge and wisdom, should we be able to feel it ? What do you think?

Thats true. Once you know the origin of it because of your experience with the world, may be you can come closer to the truth. Otherwise, we live in a world of perceptions which we think realities and make wrong moves all the time. The most important thing is awareness of what you know and what you dont know which is the key for action and helps you to learn continously.

Being aware of what you know & dont know is just collection of information. Then again , it is one who has to decide which is truth. But, it is the same one who is trying to know what is truth.. I wonder, when the "one" learns what is the truth !!
This is a trial and error method.. dont know if it ends before we end.

How about having a right guru ?

Eswar Maruri said...

Who else on earth will be the right guru than one-self?

Truth and Idealism of something cannot be shown or expressed in words. You cannot construct or give a shape to something that is everything - The Unlimited form - It only there to experience. It can only be experienced knowing the self. No guru can equal to the person who knows the inner self. Gurus just show a right path. We need to identify whats right and whats wrong. What to chose and what not to chose.

Cheers.

@ Sushma .. Having right Guru is always makes our life easier to move in right direction and to move towards absolute truth.. But how can we find our Guru.. And how many we find in different areas.

If someone able to be your mentor, who you strongly feel can be.. its one of the finest things you achieved, as i see, its not so easy to get a right mentor in this complex world.
