How to see nothing

Water composition I am told has two parts Hydrogen and one part Oxygen – both being elementary particles meaning thereby – it is the stable form to coexist as they are in normal temperature and pressure [NTP] in the surface of earth.

The building block of life, cells, need lot of it to carry food that is hydro-carbon to exist (not breakdown) and multiply. Water is color less, heavy enough to move down hill to reservoir on earth surface and light enough to travel upwards and move as cloud as directed by winds and distribute the same in the hills and land in upper terrain.

All these happen automatically in this earth, a gas ball with non-gaseous core, warmed by Sun, cooled by earth rotation (night), illuminated even when it is dark by light reflected by moon. Stability of earth is not threatened for some billion years now. We, humans, came into being not before 10,000 years but emerged as dominant species in earth. We are fast learner and we developed effective means to transfer knowledge.

I am no scientists to explain past or create future. I am only making an attempt to appeal to see the truth that is present only being absent. This Truth alone has that property and no other entity in perceptible universe [even for non-earth beings of any other composition or principles of stability from physics or chemistry under different NTP].

I am not predicting or preventing future for terrestrial or extra-terrestrial entities of consciousness.

I know human being has the capacity or consciousness to perceive and realize truth – I am not sure about any other terrestrial organisms that have the sensitivity to perceive the same – if they do – they do naturally without efforts; while modern human needs to make significant efforts to perceive and realize truth, given the level of sophistication we have introduced in our daily living.

Our knowledge is driving us to activity always and this knowledge is entirely hypothetical. We distort reality and perceive hypothesis in the guise of reality and then apply the knowledge. We known this; but have not been able to build any immunity from our knowledge acquired through reading listening and experiment. Knowledge is part and parcel of our daily living. We are programmed robot. We imagine devil in our shadow and shoot at the same. We imagine God in devil and worship the same. We imagine life in dead and immortalize the same.

Unwinding, deprogramming or simplification of our daily living is difficult but required. Perhaps it is the hardest task for an individual belonging to any community. But it is worth knowing 'what is what'. This knowledge irreversibly brings about a change in a being; that is permanent.One is present being absent!

My readers know me from my writing. It is impossible to know me otherwise since I am absent and always been so. Similarly, it is possible to be conscious of one’s consciousness even though the same is absent in the outside world and it is always so. With consciousness only we are aware of our surroundings. It is always present in human being even though it can't be seen.

I have been to zoo and watched some species. I have seen Guerrillas conscious but absent. I have seen Tortoise many centuries old underwater with algae in its eye lids and many hours so without surfacing. I have seen pythons, alligators, and fishes conscious without any sign of life.

Water is colorless and tasteless. It is possible to make it tasty and colorful. We drink tea and coffee but stratum is water that has no appearance. Consciousness too has no appearance but because of its presence alone we can be conscious of our surroundings.

How does one become conscious of one’s consciousness?

How to make a cup of tea water again?

Add a cup of tea to a tank full of water.

The cup of tea is forever lost!

Our conscious civil living needs simplification or dilution till one is aware of one’s consciousness.

Consciousness is the only inexhaustible and time invariant, inherent in all organisms born without exception.
