Riffin’ On the Sheer Implication…

“The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: The indestructible, transcendental living entity is called Brahman, and his eternal nature is called adhyatma, the self. Action pertaining to the development of the material bodies of the living entities is called karma, or fruitive activities.” 8.3 Bhagavad Gita Attaining the Supreme

To counterpose this for the times, what is being relayed here at first glance is that there is an “indestructible” “living entity” whom is, to us, is “transcendental” in nature in some meaningful sense of it, and while culturally regarded by the Hindi, or in Oriental cultures more familiar with primary Hindu concepts, as “Brahman”, this entity is known to us in the Western world as God. What is, in theory, better attained by “Hindu” methods in regards to religious methods in widespread practice by the world traditions as they are practiced in 2025, relative to Western methods at the moment, even though it is naught but the very sentiment taught by Jesus Christ in his life/the Scriptures central to Catholicism, is that the “eternal nature” of this indestructible Entity, God, is “Self”, and there is no escaping this salvation/love…

We in the West are more accustomed to hearing that the nature of God is “goodness”…and it truly is in a meaningful sense of it. They seem to have hyperbolized that we must desperately seek this nature in our very selfhood, that we must choose it in the face of ignorance as well as temptation…in the face of the schemes of its counterpart, and this simply is an immature form of spirituality that doesn’t amount to becoming all that much spiritual at all…fearful, yes, but not at all meaningfully one with Source and confident in the merit of your actions in the face of real circumstance…because it’s not predicated on truth. The truth, and this is found easily all over in the Bible, as well as stated plainly here, is that “Self”is the very nature of God. If you “are”…even in your ignorance and suffering the ultimate consequences of your actions are fitting of a god…socially we would consider that “god” a chaotic fuckboi but eventually the chickens come home to roost, y’know? It might feel like it because he broke your heart, but Machine Gun Kelly isn’t the literal devil, y’know? He merely increased your capacity for compassion…

Because, as the passage says (!), rather bluntly, quietly, “action” is synonymous with “karma”/“furtive activities”, and these are in service to the development “of the material bodies of the living entities”. We are unto each other, as the universe also is unto us, and vice-versa, witting and unwittingly. Waking up is at times a simple recognition of as much, that we have no real capacity as acting agents to eclipse this mystery of God/Brahman, as the material is God, and God has a nature that is “indestructible” and which is also “fruitive”, and so therefore we are always tending effectively to the prospects of future life, in ways we are both conscious of, as well as could never hope to fully be… it’s, like, Karmic that we do, man…

So why does suffering exist? According to this, we at least know that because we are introduced to a capacity for it, there is a capacity to create life in the universe. This life, across time, with the accumulation of experiences, takes on the shape of some sort of eternal form and is meaningfully “Brahman”, by way of a “Self”. We are here to become “Self”s in that sense of it. If as much is true, it makes sense that a thorough knowledge on the territory that is “God” could somehow meaningfully allay the very potential for suffering, and it explains why the center of every culture out there is a curriculum on this Transcendental Being. The great mystery of life is this sole mystery, and it’s already the topic at hand/within reach.

Suffering gets eaten out by this style of thinking. Suddenly, you get fearful of what life would’ve been if there…hadn't been…any suffering or great human incapacities… no irony…no comedy… utter clarity in all things eternally… self-replicating for no discernible reason because it is above condition… suddenly one wants to latch onto the very world at hand in some sort of unconscious recognition that it was it…that it is “It”!” …and that it must be all there is as the Infinite Beyond is perpetually, cryptically, always here and now… that to throw it away would be the singular transgression….but even this too, void, or something beyond, is but another expression, and an attachment as if the mental image can remain total as you remain in time… would be folly.

It keeps fractaling.    

Oh and spontaneity? Random things that just spill out of you socially as you face unfurling circumstance? They adhere to a curriculum/formula… that is very much dialed in to where others in your midst are… which is to say, I did him a disservice as much as I did him a respect, and Machine Gun Kelly also might’ve literally been the devil to you, in some sort of cosmic production cycling through conventions so as to manifest your true/higher “Self”. It happens. You both hate and love him for it, and the disconnect gives him power over you, a rag-doll in an intangible repose, caught in a rip-current meant to shatter your sense of social certainty and restore the primordial, confident in love…   

Even the devil is awesome.
