Knowing yourselves and surroundings better...

1. What is Existence?
We do know things and happenings exist because it can be known and felt by our
senses. And our minds interpret event or happening as a condition that one has to go
through, to persevere with, to soldier on with, to carry on with or to undertake with,
inevitably. Since things and happenings have existed long before we have a slightest
opportunity to recognise and understand it well, we are bound to suffer ignorantly.
Therefore, what exists is defined as that which can be known. If it cannot be known
by the mind, then it does not exist. And conventionally, things can exist as in fallacy
or in reality. In the cosmos, there is no arising of single or universal mind. When
there are 10 individuals, there would be 10 unique minds respectively. Supposedly, in
a room, there are two individuals i.e. Individual A (Mind A) and Individual B (Mind B).
Let's say, Individual A is holding a ball and it's hidden from Individual B. In this case,
the ball does exist in the room as it is already known to Individual A (Mind A).
However, the ball does not exist in the room if you were to ask Individual B (Mind B).
In other words, whether the ball does exist or vice versa, the end result is dependent
on whether it is known to the respective minds of individual or otherwise.
Just like both the duck and the cow are created realities. Precisely, this kind of
reality is also known as conventional reality i.e. a subjective cum relative reality. This
means the truth orientation is dependent on the observer (i.e. the subject’s mind) to
provide the description, definition, recognition, valuation, etc. on the other side of the
object or matter. And the truth conclusion varies among different observers or
minds. The phenomena that arise are very much related to the consciousness that
perceives them.
For instance, if you were to show an I-phone to a caveman, he would describe it as
merely a useless hard object. And if you were to show it to let’s say, an ant, it
becomes a gigantic heavy object. Likewise, you can be named as a human, a son, a
father, a preacher, a student, a Caucasian, an American, a thin man, an old man, a
buyer, a supplier, a stranger, etc. concurrently. At the end of the day, the observer
(be it your own self or another third party) would provide the definition or recognition
based on their respective perception on the same referred object or matter.
Phenomenon exists as this or that is dependent on the observers. It is just like
describing the same elephant by different blind men – one blind man may say an
elephant looks like a tree trunk; another blind man would say an elephant looks like a
snake.

2. In fact, humans could expand their consciousnesses by increasing the innate mind
frequency span via deep meditation respectively. Also, with the progress of
civilisation, the human mind frequency span would be altered progressively as well.
For example, it is unknown to mankind the existence of cosmic rays previously. With
the advancement of science and technology, humans have begun detecting and
realising its existence in the cosmos. In other words, what exists is defined as that
which can be known. If it cannot be known by the mind, then it does not exist.
Therefore, previously, those cosmic rays did not exist to mankind as it was not
discerned by the human mind frequencies. Only in modern days, with the advent of
advanced astronomy studies and experiments, did humans alter and expand their
innate mind frequency span to a grander scale to enable the detection of things with
higher vibrational frequencies.
At the end of the day, an enlightened view would mean a wholesome view. The
meaning of wholesome would be in totality of perspective and unwholesome would be
in non-totality of perspective. And ultimate reality exists beyond mind and beyond
concepts and words in the sense that it is beyond our usual ways of perceiving things.
Language and conception only imply that things exist in distinct manners i.e. wise
person, dumb person, saint, devil, etc. - in such well-defined and independent
categories. Perceiving ultimate reality is seeing that things do not exist in these
fantasised, impossible ways, in black and white categories.
In other words, ultimate reality is such label-less, bound-less, stereotype-less,
colour-less, beginning-less, end-less and for the ease of our expression, we could
summarise it as the ‘deepest fact about things.’ An enlightened mind is able to
discern the deepest fact about things in crystal clear and without hesitation after
getting rid of the waves of dependent phenomena. A fully awakened state of mind
does not require labeling, colouring, stereotyping, beginning, ending, etc. All subjects
and objects are in completely neutralised state of affairs - when this arising, that
arises; when this ceasing, that ceases.
