One does not have to possess an enormous amount of thinking faculty to understand that nature
works in cycles. It is a known fact that Earth rotates on its axis and revolves
around the Sun. It results in day and night.
Seasons change periodically. At a
regular pattern we complete a full cycle around center of solar system. The
moon waxes and wanes, the ocean tides rise and fall.
Viewing
these from a certain perspective, we may notice that these cycles may not be
independent. The termination of one may possibly lead to another one.
If we
happen to notice, at a fundamental level, the vital breath that supports our
life system comprises of cycle in the form of inhalation-exhalation.
The end of
which brings death and thus a cycle of life and death forms.
At a different level,
we may visualize the entire universe breathing resulting in the death and
formation of stars, galaxies and other celestial phenomena.
Well,
we human beings are so puny within this vast cosmos. If it can be concluded
that we are entangled in various forms of these vicious cycles, an obvious
question would arise in our minds.
“Is there really any end to this trap? How
can we break free?” Do you have any answers?
