Are there contradictions in spirituality?

Are there contradictions in spirituality?

In meditation, which is the first step towards understanding spirituality, there is no unchanging past or an unknowable future. The emphasis is always on the unpredictable present.

 

The present can change according to one's character and position. The cosmic existence is all-encompassing. There is no beginning or ending for the cosmos. However, isn't it from the Great Nothing? This is the first contradiction.

 

Scientists agree that all creation came from nothing. While it is said that anything can be created by the strength of thoughts, it is also an unchanging law of the universe that you must suffer the consequences of that creation

 

It is said that destiny, which is the fruit of our karma, can be overcome by wisdom. Wisdom  is the knowledge of our actions through meditation. However, our freedom is like lifting one leg.

 

Osho used to say beautifully that the other leg is tied with karmic results. You can be free, but you have to be bound by it.

 

There is no doubt that everyone will attain moksha. However, it is not possible for all to attain homelessness at the same time.

 

All are particles of great cosmic energy, no differences. It is true that everyone is unique. However, not everyone's understandings are the same.

 

Though the goal is the same, everyone has different paths. We have come to this earth to know everything. However, it is not possible to know everything.

 

There are different levels in the universe such as seeing, understanding and feeling. If the universe is infinite, then our understandings are finite.

 

Therefore, even the wise men of the higher planes, who have realized that this is so, are things in the universe that cannot be attained.  We can meditate and understand many things. But not all.

 

The body is also holy, so the body is chosen as the temple and the soul comes to earth. The mind is also pure, through which the ego 'I' is created and then we are able to know who I am.

 

Knowledge is sacred, and it is through it that we know all doctrines. Then it appears through its derivatives.

 

In the creation of divinity, everything has its place and its rewards.  Saints say that we can attain ultimate liberation only when our body, mind, intellect and wisdom and all consciousness have left us.

 

Therefore, everything is necessary, but everything has to be abandoned. More and more spiritual contradictions can be felt as we go deeper.

 

Isn't this cosmic wonder encompassing everything? Let us know all this by meditating on it.
