Life

Life stands between science and religions. For science, as of now, life is just another phenomenon, an amazing one though. For religions, life is the central phenomenon. Finding how important life is to the universe seems to be the key for science to progress. Is a perceiver necessary for the universe to exist?  

Veils thoughts and rebirth

When I realized that there was a veil over the thing I was looking at, out of curiosity and by natural instinct, I removed the veil from the thing. To my surprise, there was another veil over the thing. This continued and I kept removing veils from the thing and piled the veils beside me for counting at the end. When this process was over, there was nothing. This was a shock of surprise for me. I turned to count the veils. Adding to the shock, I realized that the veils were not there. Had they ever been there? It came to me as a spark that they were only in my mind. Whose mind?, I asked myself. While trying to look at me, I couldn't see me except this current of baffling thoughts, the only thing I was sure of. The current of thoughts continued and dissipated around giving birth to similar thoughts. Then there rose a rather rattling thought that the only things that exist were thoughts and intents.
