The Indian Army went up into the Himalayas for whatever reason armies do what they do.
To their surprise they found a long-bearded near-naked Yogi in ecstatic meditation and, themselves being creatures of the day, decided to video it and set it to music. 🤔
Somebody put it up on Reddit, which I check on occasion from within the browser (not logged in) because on rare occasion there's something worthwhile on Reddit, but not worthwhile enough to be logged in and therefore pulled deeper into what is, overall, not very good for humans to involve themselves with.
I found a worthy comment, so I logged in to encourage and thank him, as follows.
I believe that the screens we hold, like warm clothing, and the presence of other people, are divine gifts of the highest caliber which we humans continually denigrate into poison at the suggestion of the snakes within us (to apply a western religious metaphor to an eastern solution).
For that reason I only log in to Reddit once every long while, eventually receive an eternal ban and only return with a new name some time later when it seems that the gift is greater than the grossness.
YOUR BEAUTIFUL COMMENT is that gift.
I logged back in because your sentiments are the antidote to the paranoia, loneliness, anxiety and negativism of society. You deserve to know the power of your inspiration.
I feel like I should repay you in kind by sharing some of my own movement in this direction.
Unfortunately, for reasons I don't have clarity on, I was summoned back into the world to declaim against its nonsense. But I wouldn't dare bother you with any of those videos.
The negatives of society or any other aspect of existence are best ignored, for the cup is indeed more than half full and that half is filled with Edenic pleasures far beyond our imaginations.
I do however have one playlist in synch with your realization. I call it "Living As The Purest Art".
It is short on complaints. All it is is snippets from life done right. I am often doing life well (or was, before I was dragged back into the muck by forces larger than I can name) but, obviously, rarely bother to catch them on video.
At some point down the list a few preachy bits come in that acknowledge the imperfections of society that we can rectify, but the first bunch are just a dude showing what life feels like when you have no goals, no needs, no wants and just roll down the snowy mountains of life.
I hope you enjoy em! 😄
