Not Created, Not Lost: Remembering What You Always Were

What if the most controversial question in human history isn’t about the existence of God—but about who you are? We are told, over and over again, that God created us. But if God created us, He must be separate from us. And if we are just creations—then we are objects, beings designed to obey, limited by the story we were given. If you accept that, you make yourself small. But then ask yourself: if God created us, who created God? And who created the one who created God? If everything must have a beginning, then the creator too must be created, and the creator of the creator, and on and on it goes. That’s a loop. An infinite chain with no ground. So what if there is no chain? What if you were never created? What if you were always here, beyond the idea of time, name, form, or thought? You Were Never Created The belief that we were created forces us into dependence. Into fear. Into worship of something outside ourselves. But great beings like the Buddha never said you were a creation. ...

Beyond the Illusion: Awakening to the Truth of Reality

1. Have You Ever Wondered If What You See Is the Whole Picture? Most people believe they are living in a real, solid world. But if we slow down and look closely, something surprising is revealed: we are not experiencing the world directly. We are experiencing our mind’s version of the world—a world built from memory, interpretation, and inherited meaning. When you look at a tree with pure awareness, you are fully present. There is no identity, no separation between you and the tree. In that moment, your awareness is on the tree—not on yourself. The mind becomes silent. There is no “you” looking at a “tree.” There is only the act of seeing. That is truth. That is reality. But the moment you try to understand the tree, label it, define it—it becomes a concept. “This is a tree. It gives oxygen. It grows fruit.” Now you're no longer seeing with awareness. You are seeing with thought. And thought can never grasp the living essence of the tree—it can only describe it, catego...

Beyond the Self: Awareness as the True Identity

Beyond the Self: Awareness as the True Identity- Unknown Who am I? This question has echoed through the minds of philosophers, spiritual seekers, scientists, and everyday individuals alike. In the age of information and identity, it may seem like we know who we are—a name, a body, a collection of memories, thoughts, and emotions. Yet, beneath all these layers lies a deeper curiosity: Am I just this form I see in the mirror, or is there something more fundamental? This paper explores the realization that what we commonly call “me” is not the ultimate reality of who we are. Instead, it argues that our true nature is awareness itself—the silent, observing presence behind all experiences. This is not a belief to adopt, but a truth that can be directly experienced and reflected upon. The Illusion of the Constructed Self From childhood, we are conditioned to build a sense of self. We identify with our name, family, nationality, beliefs, physical appearance, emotions, and thoughts. This ident...

The Hyolmo People: A Peaceful Identity Nepal Must Learn to Respect

  My Journey of Curiosity and Connection When I first heard the word Hyolmo , I didn’t know much about it. At first, I wondered if it was a caste or a class division of some caste. It was completely new to me, which made me curious to learn what Hyolmo really means. I started learning about the Hyolmo, and the more I learned, the more I felt connected to them in my heart. Not because they are famous or rich, but because they are peaceful, spiritual, and beautifully different. I learned they came to Nepal from Tibet long ago not for power or land, but for peace, prayer, and a connection with nature. This made me realize something: in Nepal, we talk about unity in diversity , but do we truly see the diversity among us? The Hyolmo people are not just a small group hidden in the hills; they are a living culture of compassion, simplicity, and wisdom. I believe we need to stop trying to make them like us and start learning how to celebrate them as they are. Who Are the Hyolmo? So,...
