Solitary meditation
in a place of quiet natural beauty is a rare commodity in the Universe. This
is in fact one of the reasons why the teachings of Jiddu Krishnamurti
(may he remain happily absorbed in the Bliss of Great Awareness)
are even more significant in certain aspects than he himself understood
in his lifetime. He first
developed his power of natural meditation as a Theravada Buddhist. Then
he incarnated as the American naturalist, Henry David Thoreau. Then he incarnated as Jiddu Krishnamurti. Solitary
meditation blossomed with him.
Humanity of
our Earth is incredibly ignorant of the density of extraterrestrial
human populations on other planets throughout the Galaxy, as well
as all other Galaxies in the Universe, as well as other Universes
in the Omniverse and so on. To
get a solitary space of natural expanse and quietude anywhere is a rare thing
that signals very good karma indeed. Those of us on Earth who can get it for
our inner development and enhanced progress of personal transformation
are actually envied by
most extraterrestrials who suffer from over-civilization. There is therefore a hidden psychological
tension between extraterrestrials and advanced people of the Earth
which has to do with the opportunities for a truly enhancing lifestyle.
Lack of privacy
in natural beauty is an all-pervasive subtle torture of incarnated
souls throughout the Known Universe. It leads inevitably to over-government,
forms of excessive collective regimentation and inhibition of individual
self-expression and self-development. This
problem is not happening only on the Earth, but happens in a subtler
and gentler but more pervasive way everywhere else. In fact, it is the number one spur to
extraterrestrial exploration of unknown regions of space within a
time-space Universe and of hyperspace of the Omniverse, which you
know from Star Trek as “Liquid Space”.
For human beings
of Earth to want to visit the over-crowded civilizations of ordinary
planets of other races is therefore a bit of a joke with little developmental
value. The real deal
is to be able to join viable migrations to promising open and natural
regions beyond the Known where the animal life is not too dangerous
or annoying for colonization. That
Earth humanity is kept in the dark about these issues is in a sense
only natural. Why should extraterrestrials help stupid,
short-lived human beings from Earth to obtain what is hard for extraterrestrial
explorers to find and exploit? And,
besides, the vast majority of Earth humans do not seek a truly developmental
life in remote natural places anyway. The
rest of the Universe sees Earth-people as neurotic, nasty, stupid
sex-maniacs who only want to lie and cheat and lazily watch TV in
crowded, noisy, unhealthy cities. Since
Earth-people do not aspire to opportunities for higher life, why
should they be de-isolated from Earth and be allowed to disrupt and
plague extraterrestrial civilizations who already have enough subtle
pressures and problems of their own? There
is even a consensus among some factions in our Galaxy alone that
the Earth should be destroyed and humanity exterminated so as to
remove any “threat” of visitation from the dangerous,
insane and stupid human beings of Earth: those “aberrant monkey-people”. For many extraterrestrials, ours is just “that
perverse Planet of the Apes that should never have been created in
the first place” or “That dead-ended genetic-splice hell-hole”.
Yoga prospered
in the deeply quiet and beautiful regions of the Himalaya Mountains. Sacred
Energy and Power were awakened and unfolded in human bodies, pervading
certain special locations and creating Holy Places which would trigger
such energy and power in new-comers, thus creating the natural rationale
of pilgrimage. This rationale of visiting sacred sites
exists all throughout the Universe. A
sacred site further energizes the search for advanced living practitioners
of Super-yoga in remote regions of Space and Hyperspace where solitary,
natural openness, silence and beauty are available. There
are other “Himalayan” sacred places beyond the Earth
that are far more viable than the overpopulated and burned-out Himalaya(s) of India.
In the future
of the planet Earth, aspiring individuals will have to contend with
the rarity of privacy-in-nature. For them, travel to the stars-and-beyond
will have this paramount issue, which will put them in a different
class than the stupid, materialistic masses who will want to travel
beyond Earth for all the wrong reasons. The
people with the right reasons
will be those Isaac Asimov called “Spacers”, for they
sought privacy-in-nature on other worlds. Anyone
who understands and appreciates the concepts of pilgrimage and Krishnamurti-out-in-nature-meditation is
by definition a “Spacer”.
If you have
access to free times in a place of natural beauty and silence, don’t
blow it, but excel in Yoga, for it is the most treasured opportunity
in the Universe. If,
on the other hand, you accept living in a large, stinking, insane
and noisy city on the planet Earth, you are as good as dead already,
with or without a “terrorist” attack arranged by your
evil national government. Get out of the City. “Where there’s a will, there’s
a way”. Any city on Earth is a death-trap for
fools incapable of human evolution. Merely
reading spiritual books and articles while living in a city will
only keep you in a clever, argumentative head trip in a dying body.
