I grab book of science and it tells me that I am a complex biological evolution composed of tissues, cells, DNA, molecules, atoms, sub-atomic particles and it goes on. WOW! I am so diversified. But, I don't realize that I have become like fragments of broken mirrors. And I still don't get any insight about my nature and my existence. But again who cares about my nature and existence as long as I am pleased with facts provided to me by Science. Engrossed in scientific explanation, I begin to see my projections everywhere. I see myself growing with knowledge but I don't realize that this all is delusional forgetting I am not outcome of fragmentation but of unionism.
So, who will help me to overcome this delusion? If my destiny is awakened by Grace of 'True Guru', I realize that I have been living in delusions. I have built a web of ignorance around me based on understanding rationality has offer. This partial understanding has caused me just pains. And again by 'His Grace' I find solace in 'Gurbaani'.
'Gurbaani' starts bestowing blessings on me. I begin to realize that I am not just projection; I am not just combination of sub-atomic particles; I am not just complex biological evolution but I am just as simple as ignorant fool whose nature and existence lays deep inside my consciousness. And still I have been withering away outside to find myself outside. I am trying to find internal peace in multiverses which are just self made ignorant projections. Let us never forget:
"ਸਭ ਕਿਛੁ ਘਰ ਮਹਿ ਬਾਹਰਿ ਨਾਹੀ ॥ ਬਾਹਰਿ ਟੋਲੈ ਸੋ ਭਰਮਿ ਭੁਲਾਹੀ ॥" [1]
सभ किछु घर महि बाहरि नाही ॥ बाहरि टोलै सो भरमि भुलाही ॥
(Everything is within the home of the self; there is nothing beyond. One who searches outside is deluded by doubt.)
