What is Why!

Truth, verily inner, is a resonance at the core, a resonance with the “core”. It tells us what is why, argues Susmita. A Different Truths exclusive.   

What is why! But please do not believe because it is being affirmed so, till you are not convinced that it is so. Truth, verily inner, is a resonance at the core, a resonance with the “core”.  

Often, the strongest of perceived oppositions and contradictions are found to lead to the sweetest of corroborations.

There were times, when notions, completely reverse to the one held, irked. Yet, it is those very notions―in trying to hold on to the refusal and rebuttal, as dived within―have been found to lead to profound wisdom. That which irks, guides to the perks, as only when the questions are courted, so are the answers, quoted from and by the depths of being.

Albert Einstein humbly acknowledges and hails, “I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious,” encouraging, “the important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing.”

Contradictions, hence, when filtered through the sieve of an open, curious-like-a-child and ever-expanding mind, dissolves the resistance to that which is “different,” that which apparently differs from what we think we know. It leads to the openness to enquire: do we really know what we say we know? And who knows that that we know is absolute, immune to change?

Nothing is absolute, everything relative. Ever-changing is life, leading to realise that evolution is constant, evolving our queries, our answers, our understandings, as evolving is our perception, enhancing our awareness through the process. That is life’s spontaneous graciousness! It keeps on, thus, poking and provoking, evoking and invoking queries and their replies!

Yet again, Neale Donald Walsch presented a thought-provoking, mind-jarring (momentarily) affirmation and realisation of his, and finally leads to see the light of truth in it, transcending the apparent contradiction. He led to furrowed eyebrows, the incredulous mind, when read his declaration: In the wake of a situation, asking “why” the most futile question is, rather, “what” is to be asked, as that beholds everything.

Momentarily, there is that spontaneous rejection of the read, as an affinity with “why” has been felt since long, as the two “why questions” have been courted many times: “Why I am the way I am?” and “Why do things happen the way they do?” But the rejection is also accompanied by a concurrent resonance with the read, sensed the truth in the iterated—thanks yet again to Neale Donald Walsch (acknowledged in the very sharing through this space). And in the moments to follow, the sensed comes to the fore, seeing through “normal” meaning of “why” and “what.”

Experiences experienced and answers received are a direct derivative of our decision.

When meanings are what we give, then, why something happens, is for us to decide! What for, the happening is, we are given the liberty to choose and decide?

What is in it, for us…what it is, that we are called to look into, in our own attitude, and change (as we generally put forth the “whys” when things are deemed to be going against us), so as to grow, expand and embody the infinite potential that we have been endowed with, that we are? This answered, we have the “what,” while only “why” would keep us mired in the apparent, whiling away the moments, listless, clueless.

What for appears, that which irks, when we ask, we are using the opportunity to utilize its appearance creatively. Instead of becoming irritated, as an automatic reaction, we can transcend that reaction, evolve it, by spotting and dissolving that sore spot in the mind that acted as the irritant. The irksome are then lauded for leading to the hidden perks, the wholesome!

The beautiful relationship between “why” and “what” goes beyond the commonality that both are forms of interrogation. The very interrogation, the latter, holds the answer to the former…. Yes, thus is noted by Plato: “Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.” What the eyes behold, are upheld…and that, is why….

Truth can be ignored, refuted, but not forever. Truth, once realised is its beauty, flexibility, its magnanimity, its irrepressibility…the courage and encouragement that it is. And it is the truth of self, its realisation, is “what,” “why” life is for…. Keats is found to have observed in Ode on the Grecian Urn: “Beauty is truth, truth beauty…”

Moving from “why” to “what,” we move into the creator’s seat consciously, one with the Universe, the infinite creative intelligence, allowing it to work through us, Universe ever conspiring in our favor, ever inspiring to look through and beyond “why” and create and re-create the “what,” serving that that benefits self and all.

And that is the beauty of “what” and “why”: Merged as synonymity, respecting their autonomy!

What, is why, as that is why, happens, all that happens!
