alice in karmaland

karma, a collection of consciousness, that sinks into subconsciousness that dictates what's going to happen next?

what is consciousness? since everything you are doing is from whatever you have done before?

is your consciousness equal to your will, your volition, your freedom of choice?

if you are really interested to find out, read on....

...................................................

alice, after coming back from the wonderland, stumbled upon the karmaland.....

she saw herself in a big mirror, talking to her.

"hay, alice, i'm your karma."

"what? what do you mean, you are my grandma?"

"i said, i'm your KARMA, much older than your grandma. i made what you are now and look behind you, that's your future."

she turned and see another big mirror opposite the one where she saw herself in .....in this 2nd mirror she saw herself smiling at her, and there were countless of herselves reflected across these two mirrors.....

"so you are my future self?" she said to the 2nd mirror self.

"yap.... as you look into this mirror, things becoming smaller and smaller as the future moves further away, things becomes so small and undefined as future is farther from now, so you may not know exactly how you will turn out to be."

"ha.... how do i get away from the karma mirrors?"

"they are everywhere here in karmaland. you are trapped."

"no way out? i would always have all my past selves in the 1st mirror and my future selves in the 2nd?"

"that's right, unless..."

"unless what?"

"unless you do away with your SELF..... then there would not be any you in either mirror."

"how?"

"i don't know. but i know you may learn something from the.
KARMA chameleon."

"where can i find him."

"go to the culture club; go straight and turn left, you will find it."

she found it. she asked boy george, "where is the karma chameleon."

"you are looking at it."

"you?"

"yap."

"tell me how can i lose my self?"

"i have been trying very hard at that. look, i changed myself into a gal, i painted myself in technik colors, putting on weird clothes....i'm still here.... i heard there's a book that can tell you how to do it.... go to the library and ask the librarian. it's just across the street."

she got to the library and asked the librarian about the book. she said, "oh, that book. KARMA sutra...."

she found the book, and read it, all about positions in love making. she asked the librarian, "how do i lose myself in love making?"

"i do for a moment when i climax." she said.

"yap, but just for that moment.... then you are you again after that. can there be something that makes me lose myself permanently?"

"i don't know, go ask the guru who lives in KARMA kandara."

she found the guru. she asked the guru "how can i find a way to lose myself?"

the guru kept silent......

she left him but she did not give up looking for the way...... did she find it?

you bet!

she reached '不二法门'(the one and only way) and out she went from karmaland......

- you see, when you occupy all your life cycles looking hard for something, you already lost yourself in your pursue. when your consciousness(your will) is focused on only one thing, and the karma of that one thing will always result in the same thing which will bring you back to the original thing that you focus on - instead of the countless selves you see in the KARMA mirrors, you only see two selves, one in the past and one in the future. KARMA no longer propagates! when KARMA stops, the past, the present and the future converge into one, you only see yourself...... but have you lost yourself?

as the saying goes - in giving up your life, you find eternal life. in losing yourself you find your true self!
