“Logic is human creation”, I thought “It is limited and cannot be trusted. A man must give up to His ways.” “I should stop being no analytical, and be more impulsive.” I concluded.
That is what I said in this post. Ofcourse humans make mistakes and reach inaccurate conclusions.
—————————————————
Human mind is machine with an input and output system. The outputs are our emotions, decisions, conclusions, action plans etc. Outputs are pretty straight forward. Its the inputs which are complicated. We think that things we see in the world, our experiences, information and knowledge are the inputs. I don’t think so. I think our observations are in a way just a process of the machine itself. The inputs are very concealed.
Have you ever wondered when some idea comes to your mind, and you think why the idea didn’t come to you before? Many times we relate the ideas to our experiences in life, but I have had ideas which just came without any connection with my conscious.
These random ideas trigger processes in our mind which result in our emotions and conclusions. Are these random ideas really random? I think not. As I’ve said before, I think every thing He does is well calculated and planned.
The input to our mind are ideas given by Him. If it was not so, everybody in the world would become identical to each other! Its the variety of ideas which make everyone different.
—————————————————
When my ideas and my mind are His creations, how can I say that my logical conclusions are my creations? I reach all my conclusions because He wants me to reach those conclusions. So how can I simply trash my logic?
Yes, this does raise the confusing question of “who am I?” And I have no answer to that.
For a very long time, “how to live” has been a riddle in my mind. But now I am giving up this riddle. I choose to be logical, then I choose to be impulsive. But really, I don’t know the complete picture. New things keep coming up.
We should just live. Sometimes we are going to do things logically, sometimes we are just going to go by gut. We should just let ourselves be, set ourselves free. And we must do the right thing when we come to the crossroads. When I come to the crossroads in my life, I stop and think, “Is this description of right thing logical or impulsive?” No damnit! Don’t think like that! The fact is that you always know what the right thing is. Just do it.
I have just realized that in the past, I couldn’t concentrate on doing the right thing because I was so preoccupied with all these philosophical questions. I simply didn’t have a clear head for such a long time. Anyway, it was what He wanted. I guess there is no use in regretting what has happened already.

Doing the right thing ain’t always easy, but the more you wanna do it the easier it gets.. We all know what the right thing is at some point.. Let me repeat, WE ALL KNOW WHAT THE RIGHT THING IS AT SOME POINT! The blessed ones are those who do it.. This brain we’re given can, & the proof is that He Will judge us upon having it..
Gosh, how hard this life is!

brilliant man- ppl who reached the highest level of wisdom all had 1 thing in common i.e we dont know anything. its true and is highly ironical that the more you know, the more u realize that i dont know, which further proves human mortality. most ppl who reach that level stop saying much or writing much because if v go deep into ourself v will c that even the fact that v have a blog shows that we think we know. The irony is that those who turn speechless & expressionless due to excessive knowledge, if they dont talk much and dont write much, how r gonna duffers like us (which is by the way 99.99%) know that we dont know
perhaphs that inspires ppl like hazrat ali hajweri to write unmatched GEMS like kashfulmahjub

I dont think I agree with the basis…that He puts in the thoughts…ideas…I think a result has been decided for me…but how I get to it…is what I have control on…and hence they are my ideas…which may have been built up with experience…
I have control on how I will get something that is already decided…that is fate…
