The Mechanism of the Universe

I spend few weeks isolating myself, battling and most importantly to still my mind. Its very tough. For years, ive been analyzing books concerning the fundamentals of religion, theology and yes philosophy. Huxley's is still my favorite.

Im intrigued and actually loves to analyze and ponder the elements religions offer to us.  Again its very sad to see people associate religion as some sort FORM instead of PRACTICE and ACTION.

When it comes to FORM, people tend to associate themselves. Somehow people need to realize that we need to go beyond FORM.

with our so called busy life, we dont find time instead of finding time to reflect upon the things we did. Anyway we are just small pieces that contribute to the big picture. We are insignificant - but the time we living now makes us think otherwise. FB and other social media tools doesnt help.Everyone loves to be who they are not. Everyone loves attention and somehow caught in something.

Isolating oneself is not easy, you need to detach, somewhat leave the things you no longer need and find solace within oneself. People will call you anti-social, a misanthrope or worst - selfish. In the end of the day, we need to LOVE ourselves first before we can LOVE and ACCEPT others.

Anyway, below is the result of my introspection. With this visuals brewing and simmering  in my mind, consciousness - subconsciousness and it took me quite some time to translate it to the canvas. This following work features the abstraction of the universe mechanism, see how the lines overlapped and weaved together. It will never go out of place, in fact it will complement to the bigger picture.

The lines is US

We dont see this, all events and incidents happen is within reason. The irony is after we get to view how the universe works, we just can only observe and acknowledge it. We just need to know that we have our own role, contribution to this mechanism. That's all. So we need to surrender - i know its not hard, but seriously based on my experience, life itself will work out for us rather than vice versa.

May everyone be free from any mental suffering, physical suffering, any harm and danger and live well and happy.
