The experiencer and experience are the same
You are what you feel! Know how and why?
By Vivek Sharma
You and your nature are not two different entities. There is no difference between Prakriti and Purush. Both are One and not two. We can understand it through common terms.
Krishna says: प्रकृतिं पुरुषं चैव विद्यनादी उभावपि…the created and the creator both are infinite, continuous and ceaseless. Both have the same features. Because, both are the same. One is the centre and the other is the spherical extension around it, infinitely so!
कार्यकरणकृतृत्वे हेतुः प्रकृतिरुच्यते। Action and the agency of action, medium of action, are called Prakriti. पुरुषः सुखदुःखानां भोक्तृत्वे हेतुरुच्यते।। Perceiving, feeling the positives and negatives of the action is called the Purush, the centre. Sukh-dukh here are two opposite forces operating on the centre while the sphere is expanding. Expansion is taking place in Prakriti and all the pulls and pressures generated during the process are borne, felt and perceived by the centre, the Purush, whose extension is Prakriti. So, the experiencer and experience are the same. The doer and the done are the same. What you see and feel is nothing but you, yourself all the way!
The Purush cannot experience without being an experience himself. The centre cannot expand and realise it unless it becomes the expanding sphere itself. That is what Krishna means when ?He says: पुरुषः प्रकृतिस्थो हि भुंक्त्ते प्रकृतिजानगुणान् । The Purush can only experience the growing, changing Prakriti only by being into it. The experiencer can experience the experience only by being in it—not outside it! So, experiencer, since is in the experience, is experience itself. You are what you feel. Simple. Not different from your feel. If you are jealous, you are jealousy itself and by being that you experience jealousy and all the changes happening thereafter! If you feel God, you are God yourself and being that you experience God and all the changes happening thereafter!
Let’s Understand It
Let us call Prakriti a car with intelligence and the purush, is driver-cum-mechanic, from whose mind has come out the car with intelligence.
In fact, car with intelligence is nothing but the driver himself. Without the driver, the car is non-functional and non-existent. In fact, the two appear different but they are not. Prakriti is nothing but the layout of the car system and Purush is nothing but the layout in its seed form. The layout is the same right from the seed to the tree. The machine acts as per its system. In fact, the system makes the machine act. That system is called Prakriti. Anything pre-created with a particular purpose is called Prakriti, the inbuilt system. An action is possible only in the machine and by the machine. The driver is just there to give it a direction. The driver can only run the machine as per its system, not otherwise! You can only drive a car on the road, you can’t fly it without changing its system according to the purpose! That is why God only upgrades you through your inbuilt system. He doesn’t trash it unless it is required in a particular case. So respect your nature, your system. It alone is the possibility of your growth. A scooter can be upgraded into a better scooter, a car a better car, unless, of course, the upgraded scooter is fit to be upgraded into a car and a car, into an aero plane !
All changes are happening in Prakriti, the system inside and outside. All upgrades are possible in the system. What this upgrade means in the case of a human? It means ‘a change for the better’. But, what is this better? It is the system’s requirement that a fool has to become wise, poor has to become rich, have-nots have to become haves….So where do you think all these actions, activities are taking place? It is in Prakriti, in the system itself. The machine is acting in itself, not the driver. The driver is only using the machine as per its potential. In our case, we are the driver-cum-mechanics. We are experiencing the machine function. We are experiencing how it can be improved. The demand of improvement is happening in the driver-cum-mechanic. But, it is system generated. Therefore, as long as the driver is driving the car, he is car itself, the system itself, but when he comes out of it, he ceases to be the car and its system. So the driver-cum-mechanic is nothing but a part of the system in the car. But, he is akarta when he comes out of it or unbuilds the car or upgrades the system to keep it working in the changing Prakriti outside. The one who can build and unbuild is Purush and what he can build and unbuild is his own system—prakriti. That is why he is called the akarta when uncreating the created and the prakriti when he is part of it as a driver! As the car cannot be dissociated with the driver, the system cannot be but extension of the mechanic. The mechanic can re-do it, reset it, the extension as per his choice, at that time /he is akarta.
The word akarta has deeper dimensions. It doesn’t simply mean inactive, non-active. This is the foolish idea being carried forward for time immemorial.
The same way Prakrit
Action is only possible in the relative — where a moment in time and space is progressing in decided patterns. Like the seed is sown, it sprouts, becomes a tree. Action is happening from the seed moment to the tree moment and on, as per the decided pattern in the direction of progression — forward movement, called Prakriti. Who is performing action? The Prakriti itself, the system itself is working by its own force. Like the car runs along as per the system and moves. The movement is generated by the system in the car itself, not by the driver. The. Driver can only drive the car, not fly it. To fly it, the Driver needs to change the system—prakriti.
Happy Republic Day

अमलतास का पत्र मानव के नाम
स्मृति वन
जयपुर।(14 अगस्त 2020)
हे मानव,
सस्नेह वंदन।
मैं जानता हूँ कि ये पाती पाकर चौंक उठोगे तुम। तुम्हें आदत नहीं है न पत्र पढ़ने की, तुम्हारे संदेश तो अब मेल,ट्विटर,व्हाट्सएप और मैसेंजर पर आया-जाया करते हैं। यह जानते हुए भी मैं तुम्हें पत्र लिख रहा हूँ ताकि तुम्हें जीवन और परिवेश के प्रति आत्मीयता के मायने समझा सकूँ, तुम्हारी संवेदनाओं को दिशा दे सकूँ और तुम तक पहुँचा सकूँ जंगल का दर्द, तुम्हें दिखा सकूँ तुम्हारी क्रूरता से क्षत- विक्षत, आहत मेरे वन-उपवन,मेरे पुष्प, मेरी लतिकाएँ।
अरे! इतनी अपरिचित दृष्टि से न देखो इस पत्र को। अजनबीपन का ये भाव हटादो अपनी आँखों से। मैं वही अमलतास हूँ, सड़क के किनारे स्मृति-वन के सामने उगा झूमर से झूलते पीले फूलों वाला अमलतास। अब भी नहीं पहचाना? कैसे पहचानोगे? तुम रोज़ अपनी कार का काला धुआँ छोड़कर जाते हो मुझपर लेकिन एक बार भी इन गुज़रे सालों में तुमने मुझपर आत्मीय दृष्टि नहीं डाली। जानते हो? जब गाड़ियों का रेला गुज़रता है न सड़क से, दम घुटता है मेरी पत्तियों का,मूर्छा- सी छाने लगती है उनपर।आखिर कितना अवशोषित करेंगी वे तुम्हारा ज़हर,जो दिनोंदिन बढ़ता ही जाता है। पत्तियों की मूर्च्छा का अर्थ जानते हो? इसका अर्थ है वृक्ष का धीरे-धीरे मृत्यु के निकट जाना। वृक्ष की मृत्यु का अर्थ तो समझते हो न तुम?
नहीं, नहीं समझते वर्ना हालात इतने बदतर न होते। देखो, हम वृक्ष, हमारा समुदाय आधार हैं इस पारिस्थितिक(ecology) तंत्र के। हम में से हर एक पेड़ 24 घंटे में 55 -60 लीटर ऑक्सीजन उत्सर्जित करता है और हर एक मनुष्य को 24 घंटे में साँस लेने के लिए लगभग 550 लीटर ऑक्सीजन चाहिए यानी लगभग 10 पेड़,फिर भी तुम हमें खत्म करने पर तुले हो। हमारी पत्तियाँ कार्बनडाई ऑक्साइड और अन्य जहरीली गैसें सोखकर वातावरण में जीवनदायिनी ऑक्सीजन घोलती हैं, हम तुम्हारी प्रदूषण, मिट्टी के कटाव,बाढ़ और सूखा जैसी सभी समस्याओं के समाधान हैं।
हम तुम्हें शुद्ध हवा देते हैं साँस लेने के लिए ; पौष्टिक भोजन औरऔषधियाँ देते हैं स्वस्थ रहने के लिए ; अगर,चंदन,पुष्प,समिधा सब हमीं देते हैं पूजा के लिए। और तो और प्रेम के प्रतीक गुलाब जिन्हें तुम बड़े प्यार से अपनी प्रेमिका को देते हो;बड़े फ़क्र से रोज़ डे और वेलेंटाइन डे मनाते हो,सब हमारे ही बलबूते पर न । सूखकर गिरी हमारी पत्तियाँ, हमारी टहनियाँ उस जमीन को पोषित करती हैं,जिस पर तुम्हारी फ़सलें लहराती हैं और जिन्हें देखकर तुम फूले नहीं समाते ।
सोचो, हमारी इस निःस्वार्थ सेवा के बदले, हमारी इस नेह की सौगात के बदले तुम हमें क्या देते हो? काला धुआँ? अवैध कटाई? न जाने कितने पशु-पक्षियों , जीव-जन्तुओं को बेआसरा करते हो। और हाँ, अभी तुमने पानीपत-हरिद्वार रोड पर गेहूँ के अवशेष जलाकर तो एक नई समस्या खड़ी करदी-हमारे लिए और खुद अपने लिए भी। जानते हो? ज़मीन में 1/2 फ़ीट तक उसे उर्वर बनाने वाले सूक्ष्म जीवाणु ही ख़त्म हो गए। आवासीय ज़रूरतों,उद्योगों,खनिज-दोहन के नाम पर तुम वर्षों से हमारी बलि चढ़ाते आ रहे हो।
इन दिनों कोरोना-काल में बिना कामकाज के घर पर बैठकर जैसी घुटन और निराशा अनुभव कर रहे हो न तुम, वैसी ही, ठीक वैसी ही घुटन होती है हमें, जब तुम हमें साँस लेने के लिए काला धुँआ देते हो।और हाँ, सुनो, वो चौराहे के पार जो 5-6 पेड़ काटे न तुमने सड़क चौड़ी करने के नाम पर, उनपर आशियाँ था कितने ही पंछियों का। तुमने तो मुड़कर भी नहीं देखा लेकिन मैं देख रहा था- वृक्षों की खुदी जड़ों में अपने शिशु तलाश करती चिड़ियाँ, उनकी कटी शाखों से अपने ध्वस्त घोंसलों के तिनके बटोरती चिड़ियाँ।
अब बस भी करो।जागो। संवेदनशील बनो पर्यावरण के प्रति वर्ना सृष्टि का अंत निकट जानो। याद रखो-
हम तुम्हारी श्वास हैं,
हम तुम्हारा खाद्य हैं,
हम उन्मुक्त सौंदर्य हैं,
हम तुम्हारा जीवन-उल्लास हैं।
हम हैं तो तुम हो,
फिर तुम हो तो हम क्यों नहीं?
बोलो हम क्यों नहीं?
आशा है ये पत्र तुम्हारी सोई आत्मा में हलचल मचा देगा, तुम्हें पर्यावरण के प्रति सजग कर देगा
इति शुभम्।
तुम्हारा अपना ही,
अमलतास

Dragon nailed! Just wait for its fall on Indian peaks
By Vivek Sharma
How to defeat China in its vicious war against economic giants and its over ambitious mission to monopolise the globe and all its resources?
This is the question on every diplomat, patriot and thinking person’s mind. Isn’t it?
This ‘how’ seems very difficult when we roll it over a frozen mindset. But, the moment we decide to think out of the box, the answer is simple and do-able.
What is that? Block China’s interest. How? Focus on the Pok. Implement the strategy to re-occupy PoK, while talking border issues out with China as we are doing right now. China will have no option but to recede from its false positioning. Now, give it an economic blow, which India has already begun doing, without really declaring it. Exploit the post-covid-19 US-Japan-UK -Bharat front against China to isolate it globally, partially by strengthening the pro-democratic forces within its land—specially Taiwan, Hong Kong and the adjoining areas.
The Communists-led Chinese government cannot afford economic crisis, triggered by PoK—now China would have to talk to India for its trade road through it. Pakistan will be hit politically and economically further too, with Sindhis and Baloochis forcing their way on the Punjabi Pakistan, that is what shall be left of it by then. China will have no option but to find Pakistan too hot to handle. It will let it go.
A few workable steps.
1.Dominate China diplomatically on Laddakh issue relentlessly.
2.Re-consolidate military presence there with ground and air forces ready-to-strike.
3.Make covid-hit nations put pressure against China. Japan will be a force to reckon with here.
4.Formally mobilise PoK plan, through diplomatic and UN channels.
China is gone.
China’s Plan
Covid-19 has been China’s shrewd plan to carry further its interests. And it has succeeded to some extent in its game plan by bringing economic powers on the ground. But, it has failed to bring them down on their knees and that has what has left China desperate with most of its target nations training their guns on it. China had been in a rush to implement its Plan B—sell balm to the painful, sell treatment to the ailing it created. But, with majority of nations choosing to stand against it, China is left with no option but to fire off its Plan C—that is unleash “insurgent forces” cultivated by it in various countries to destabilise target nations and create a situation where the nation in question is forced to engage with its own people, triggering a crisis of sorts, which will benefit China, so to say. Well, it has tried it against India by playing anti-Modi forces in and around Bharat during the covid-19 spread. Jamatees, silly Congress attacks and desperate Left’s nitpicking cannot be denied as China’s destablising bid to stop India in its tracks to becoming an economic giant.
Muscle Flexing
The show of strength at Laddakh borders and Pakistan’s bid to make airbase and dig up tunnels in Pak-Occupied-Kashmir (PoK) can’t be seen in isolation. Popular Front of India, which is a destabliser, pampered by pro-Chinese forces, including radical Islamists, is nothing but a pawn in the game plan of China. It did its job during the Shaheen Bagh protests. But, smart handling by the Central govt and prompt arrests of the brains involved in it neutralised the poison China and Pakistan had planned to destablise the Modi government with the covert help of the Congress. Even post-lockdown relief, the left-led forces are trying to re-start the protests. However, the police sniffed the plot out and foiled this attempt.
Present Scenario
Now China is going to face stronger and stronger opposition through out the world. Unlike what people think, China is facing a lot of protest on its own land with pro-democratic forces gaining ground there. There , which is already facing the divide created by the growing pro-democratic forces on its homeland. But, I believe the counter has begun, which marks the end of China, which is also handling pro-democratic forces in its homeland. A weak economy means the defeat of the Maoists.
Let’s wake up to the fact that its left arm is nasty and full of evil designs. It has created a network of left forces which has three purposes as mission: (1) Enter the political process of democracies (2) Buy off bureaucrats (3) Enter industries, copy out technologies (4) Keep insurgents ready to disrupt peace by exploiting the local contentions.
You don’t have to travel far to sift examples of it. You just have to see what Left forces, naxals and maoists are doing in India and who actually helped spread violence in the USA after a stubborn police officer kneed a civilian to death. This was a crazy incident, no doubt, and the perpetrators deserved severest punishment. They still do. But, who did white versus black and unleashed anti-social forces through out America?
It was Anti-Fascist Political Activist
movement that comprises autonomous activist groups that aim to achieve their political objectives through the use of direct action rather than through policy reform.
Individuals involved in the movement tend to hold anti-capitalist and anti-government views, and subscribe to a range of Left-wing ideologies. A majority of adherents are socialists, anarchists and communists, who describe themselves as revolutionaries. It is useless to think China out of it all. China has been part and parcel in antifa’s activities by pumping in money and sliding in violent plans. President Trump’s statement that China stole America’s intellectual property should not be seen in isolation either. It directly links to the copycat industry of China which hit American and other developed nations by cheap-selling copies. This means China has been planning for long to damage the developed nations to make a place for itself and realise its mission to monopolise global resources.
The Dragon is as good as nailed by the Indian peaks. It is just scratching the stony mountains out of frustration.
