Great Minds Anywhere, Anytime

Does our creator micromanage creation, or is it on auto control? The most brilliant of minds seem to sprout anywhere, anytime, as also those that are the most destructive. Is there a method to this occurrence? Can everything be attributed to accidental happenings? I think another great mind is due anytime now, but from where is the only puzzle to unravel. I have a belief our inner wiring is made with much thought to give the maximum impact on us. It could well be the leader among is always present but needs the right time to rise and lead us by resonating with our aspirations. Now technology and scientific breakthroughs are gaining speed, but they cut both ways; so, we need the wisdom to survive. We should also be prepared for the change. Thanks to our skilled oarsman, we feel safe that we will see another day but have to watch out for our own for our safety! We can be the best of friends and also the opposite though we are still not able to make the right choice most times. Are we not more than blessed in every way? Image: Change from Wikimedia Commons

Those who work hard for what they get out of life are the ones who are truly blessed. There is no method to madness, but we should be cautious and mindful.

Agreed, we should be entitled to the fruits of our labor. We should reap what we sow. Let our goals be honorable - siva

As long as we give more than we take, and are aware that our actions have consequences, then we do justice to our existence - siva

We are blessed with the technology we have and the different brilliant minds over the last few years. But then people now a days tend to abuse it or take it for granted.

I always think of the time our forefathers struggled to live another day. I also know how the older generation was much more generous and not selfish much different from what I see around now. Are we not enjoying the fruits of their sacrifices? siva

Yes, let us not self-destruct as we may not get another chance. I think we don't deserve too if we don't appreciate what has been given on a silver platter - siva

I have always felt we are sparks of the Almighty wired with a direct connection. We are one and the same and any divisions are of our making - siva

We are, in a way guests, on a short visit here and should remember to play a positive role to leave this planet a better place for others to come just like our forefathers did with much less - siva

I stand amazed every time I look at creation and it makes me want to cry when I think what we have done with it. The bible says he has given us 'everything we need for life and godliness'. And yet we either misuse or don't use the gifts he has given us .

According to me, we are ungrateful. We have been given a spread that is captivating and that gets refilled every moment. We get carried away by our five senses but the real fulfillment lies beyond that. If we pursue a higher consciousness, the problems that beset us now will become history. We do not own anything here. We are guests with a limited tenure and beholden to add value, at least leave it in the same way we found it. Being ungrateful will not carry us far either here or hereafter. The law of cause and effect is inbuilt in the whole process - siva

I like to think about creation and our role in it. Our creator has spoiled us with his munificence. Let us too rise to the occasion and take our lives to another level - siva

I feel we are not doing enough to prevent this inexorable ride. I worry we tamper negatively with the balancing inherent in creation. Yes, our closing our eyes to the overexploitation of natural resources led by greed and oneupmanship do not augur well, help the cause, for the health and survival of our planet - siva

The fate of the world might largely seem to be in our own hands.
We are always blessed by God and his love, but at times we do not yet appreciate, or understand this blessing, and how the law of love operates for both us and God's worlds of creation. There are certain governing rules and laws which might imply that a self-managing process is activated in life, but this is not so. The laws themselves change too over time. Everything changes, even God changes and grows from his creation changing and growing within him. One day, the scientists will see that nothing is stuck in either sand or rock, it ongoingly changes from its position over consciousness, not time. As consciousness grows, and more love is lived from, all laws change, until in the end, only one law applies, the great law of love, which says, when we love, love loves us, and all is love, so we are as God then too. No laws exist to love, which writes laws for itself. This is how Jesus Christ could even walk on water. He lived solely from this higher law of love.

There is no fate in God. All is planned to a T.

@Shiva49 Thanks siva. You always bring me back down to Earth. I try to see things from God's eyes, but I am not so practical, in my knowing how to bring this about on the Earth. You put me straight. There is still a lot of work to do here first. Free choice trips us up at times, but still, in the long run, it's better for us to have that, than not, I think.

@innertalks I have to thank you, Steve, for making our discussions more meaningful, in-depth. We agree and disagree and move on. I can well understand your point of view but I am more critical of our ways. God need not carry the can for us in the name of love at all costs like an indulgent parent I see more in Asia. They handhold their children even when they have their own children! History has taught us lessons but we do not mend our ways at all. We have great masters from our past who we like to quote and our leaders swear by their faiths to get elected and even stay on in power but they prove hypocrites of the first order! I recall the tale of "The Emperor has no clothes"; even a small child knew he was royally screwed! In the same way, we still pretend all is well in our world when our leaders play brinkmanship on a daily basis due to their ego and self-preservation - siva

Thanks, Steve, for highlighting what oils the whole process, God's love. When we live our lives with this awareness, we cannot go wrong. It is part of God's love to sprinkle great minds everywhere from time to time. He has also planted the same seed in everyone too but most are blissfully unaware and do not nourish the seed and allow it to sprout. Our creator nudges us to the right path but does not drag us stifling the free choice we are given by being at the apex of all species. Great potential, stifled and vitiated by negativity, has been the hallmark of our ride so far. Time to step up as our impact is felt more with each passing generation. We know what to do but we continue to play with fire. We even test God's love carried away by the thought we are the chosen ones! Each can do but little, but if each does that little. all will be done - siva

The Creator tests us every moment! And at all bad times we have to show love! To increase our love for every bad person ... show them the light of God! And in every gloom there are bad geniuses and vice versa. We are made to feel love! But we have to think what this love is and to whom! There is energy (Love), but where is it directed and what!

Love can cut through the evilest of minds. In fact, evil arises when love takes a back seat. The darker the night, the brighter will our light shine. And it is the darkest before dawn before a new day is waiting to be born. Past is well past, we can learn lessons and the future is not yet. However, the present moment is the best present we are given. Let us use it - siva
