ParticipativeExploration

Participative Exploration

for

DelusionFree Culture

(Strawman 1.0)

The absolute and complete truth of this immense Existence has always been far beyond the capabilities of human-individual. However, together we can build better and better models of Existence in-time to human-advantage. That is the primary purpose of a Multi-Generational 'ParticipativeExploration (Parnex)' Process. Creation of DelusionFree Culture would be the first critical action. To have meaningful collective-exploration, there has to be a common purpose for all affected.
Let us look at the following for a ‘common purpose’:

In all SentientBeings on Earth, there is natural longing for ‘Happiness’. As we climb the sentience-ladder, this longing progressively grows in intensity and in scope. At the top, human-longing is for ‘Unlimited, EverFresh, and Everlasting Happiness’. For the sake of brevity, we have called this ‘natural longing’ as ‘Niv’ {Bliss;...}. Fulfilment of the NivLonging anticipates contentment, harmony, peace, enthusiasm in living,... For us, Niv is the most important of all things; because, that is our ‘Swabhaav’ - the very nature of our being, our ‘intrinsic nature’, our ‘essential nature’.
‘Pursuit of Niv’, therefore, becomes our ‘JeevanDharm’ - the natural purpose of our Journey of Life. So, the basic CommonPurpose for each ParnexParticipant would be 'Pursuit of Niv in Journey of Life'.

‘Illusion of Niv’, has been called here as ‘Ziv’. Lust, greed, cravings, possessiveness,... are ZivObsessions. They are illusions of Niv, providing momentary gratifications and leaving behind life-time of suffering, thereby hurting our ‘pursuit of niv’. This delusion of Ziv would, directly or indirectly, obstruct ‘pursuit of niv’.

Earth is moving stars are moving

Bewildered by the hectic, and seemingly aimless, movement of the heavenly bodies, rushing into the unfathomable depths of the cosmic space, and confused by the terrible human condition, one is wondering: Why? What is the Truth of our Existence? What is the Mystry?

Book of Life

This poem attempts to address the dilemma "What is causing HumanSuffering". It empasizes first-hand observation of, and learning from, the Life itself. Mere reading and adoption of someone else’s conclusions, howsoever credible, would not provide necessary clarity to understand the whole mechanism of HumanSuffering. The ‘Book’ metaphor for ‘Life’ itself, used by Jiddu Krishnamurti, brings it out so naturally. This next poem is titled
Book of Life

What is this book, the BookOfLife?

Wonders of Nature (Hindi)

Being the product of the MidWorld on Earth - as different from the MacroWorld of stars and galaxies and from the MicroWorld of SubAtomic Particles & QuantumnMechanics - humans naturally love the MidWorld. Our body, our senses, and our mind naturally enjoy so many aspects of Nature on Earth - the trees, the birds, the streams, the rivers, the rain, the flowers, the cool breeze, ...

Duniya Mai.n Hoo.n

Duniya ka Talabgaar Nahi Hoo.n

(saigal)

This is a popular 'gazal' rendered by India's great singer K.L.Saigal. Lyrics have been modified to serve the purpose of 'Delusion-Free Culture'.
"I am in this (delusionary) world, but I am not of this world. I am full of enthusiasm for living. There is so much more for me to enjoy in life; and, I shall do it, because I am free from its delusionary-obsessions and from its illusionary ego-centricity, that cause psychological-suffering. I am not this temporary physical-body - I am eternal CosmicEssence.

Mausam Biitaa Jaaye

"ZivBandhan ub tord ke, Niv ka naata jord le": ZivBandhan (ZivConditioning) is a delusionary-conditioning of IndividualMind, basically arising from ZivCulture. This must be completely rejected.
In Parnex (ParticipativeNexploration), there shall be a constant inflow of new insights. And, all of the surviving insights shall be subject to constant review to ascertain their value, as times change. ParnexProcess shall always strive for the most appropriate values. Parnex would be the best way to correct own ZivConditioning.

Jeevan Tujhe Bulaaye

Morning of Life (Hindi)

This is about Cosmic-Intelligence - the superior-most intelligence in existence. Over time, it would have evolved naturally inside an immortal Self-ReEngineering Cosmic Nivnet (Cosnet). Cosnet creates novel 'universes', each to serve as a novel 'factory' (NivFactory), that keep up with the ever-fresh supply of 'Niv' (pure bliss) for Cosmic-Intelligence; and 'creative intelligence' for Cosnet.

This is a 21st century worldview of existence (Worldview21). It is an EngineeringModel, and not a ScienceModel. Many top-scientists admit openly, that they believe in something that is not currently provable. It is the insight (NivInsight) gained primarily through decades of exploration (a) in monitoring the evolution-trajectory of Technology; and, applying it to the rapidly expanding Cosmological discoveries; and (b) in 'human suffering'.

One, who is able to identify with CosmicProcess {Brahm, VishwAtam, JagAtam, ParamAtma, God21 (a view of God that would be coherent with the 21st century reality of Technology),...} would find a most-rewarding purpose in own life.
Cosmic-NivProcess includes design, launching, and operation of novel NivFactories (Universes), that enable supply of ever-fresh Niv.

Bahut Kathin Hai

This is a novel composition about engineering a 'purposeful life'. "Laayee Hayaat Aaye, Qaza le chalii chale" is a famous ghazal from Zauq, a contemporary of Ghalib and Momin in the golden age of Urdu poetry. "Bahut kathin hai dagar panghat kii" is a qawwali rendered by HabibPainter & Party. These two sources have found a new combination in the present poem. Original lyrics have been significantly changed - to share experience of difficulties in NivExploration.
This poem attempts to share some insights of Nexploration (Niv-Exploraion). Here, the root-word 'Niv' has been used for Natural-Longing of HumanBeings for bliss - (unlimited, ever-lasting, and ever-fresh) happiness, joyous-contentment, and enthusiasm for Living. As we progress in Participative-Nexploration, scope of 'niv' may be further expanded.

And, the second root-word 'Ziv' stands for 'illusion of niv'. This illusion generates mass-delusion and mass-suffering among humans. It may be noted that, 'ziv' is not opposite of 'niv'.

One insight goes like this "Living with the dominating ZivCulture and as part of its consequent ZivInfrastucture, is very difficult. It is like living in extreme wilderness - internally and externally. However, for purposeful NivJourney of Life, Engineering a NivPath, through this wilderness is also not easy. You will still face suffering imposed by the delusionary ZivEnvironment. So, don't expect a struggle-free passage."

English translation shall be attempted, as we proceed.

Ye Tha Kisko Pataa

This poem is about the 'purposeful journey of life'. The exploration has lead to a real transformation in the 'worldview' that facilitates merger with the Insights into human-longing for unlimited, ever-lasting, and ever-fresh happiness; and, enables eventual merger with the Cosmic-NivProcess {Brahm, VishwAtam, JagAtam, ParamAtma, God21 (a coherent model for 21st century),...}.

Hai Andheri Raat (Harivansh Rai Bachchan)

This is a very moving poem from Harivansh Rai Bachchan, a great Indian poet. "Calamities come in every one's life. Life may look hopelss. But, don't give up. Get up and re-connect with the flow of Life."

Concluding Remarks

Conflict, sadness, frustration, disharmony,... are natural part of ZivCulture. Only NivCulture, created together in a NivCollective, can protect its participants from the on-going ZivReinforcements from the surrounding ZivCulture, and from its manifested Infrastructural ZivSystems. So, let us all contribute to grow progressively richer NivCulture – philosophy, BookOfLife observations, poetry, song, dance, drama, documentary, audio, video...

For Parnex to become the 'Wave of Positive HumanFuture', the participants will have to be selflessly dedicated to seek out common 'Niv Utility Function'. In addition to unlimited, ever-fresh, and ever-lasting 'happiness', a few other values come to mind immediately:

• 'Wellbeing' adds a necessary future-dimension to happiness.

• Without 'Joyous Contentment', there would be no mental-peace. This has to be there all the time in the sub-conscious.

• 'Enthusiasm for Living' and absence of 'Mental Chatter' would be good indicators.

One has to find ways to keep away from ZivObsessions and ZivAttachments.

Thanks for going through this strawman. Your comments would be of great value. In the end, I would like to remind you that a strawman-version is not supposed to be a 'stand alone' document. This is just to initiate an in-depth 'participative exploration'. There will be many questions. Please enter your comments, and/or send me an email.
