If the world is my oyster, the mirror image of myself, what is my hope for the world? How would I like to see the world to be?
That is jovial and kind. That is warm hearted and welcoming. That is bright and positive. That is always rooting for one another. That is one for all and all for one. That shines out the pureness within and goodness in all. That radiates the light of joy and ecstasy. That is full of abundance.
We were once that only.
But alas such over time of only abundance and joy, what will eventually become of it? No one wants to leave such a joyful place. Overtime desires came and flooded the mind. People want more and more and would do anything to prevent old age, death of own or loved ones. Bad traits developed, laziness come crawling by, cockiness shows its colour, jealousy spring out, lust and evilness crept in.
Such beauty and plan of the creation of the world. Everything is known for God is omniscient. Like how we check and balance in governmental system, the world needs a check and balance with the positive and negative energy to keep things in place. When things are going too good, a little nudge of bad experience reminds you not to take things for granted and become complacent. When times are bad, you are reminded of what is important. People seek for peace, call out to God. Like that each yuga takes place. From the golden time to deteriorating time and will once again go back to the golden time.
The world is our playground of experience and senses play. But while being in this world of wonders and play, we must never forget the root, the truth in all and get carried away. Always to center ourself with the truth while doing all the wonders in the world. That is how we can be in the water and not get wet.
For the real oyster of the world is a journey of home away to home again, to the pearl within.
