The Law of Inter-relationships

The Law of Inter-relationships

Myriad causes will lead to an event.
Myriad events might lead to a Cause.
The cause and event are inter-related.
For it's governed by the law of inter-relationships.

Every thought that is thought of,
every thing that is made,
every particle that is created in this universe,
are all inter-related.
For it's governed by the law of inter-relationships.

For an event to happen, 
myriad inter-related causes are required.
For a great Cause to happen,
myriad inter-related events are required.
For it's governed by the law of inter-relationships.

Every event that happened had myriad causes.
Every Cause that surfaced had myriad events.
The knower of this truth,
places the heart in the absolute
and plays the drama of causes and events,
in the relative realm - detached.

For the event-less to happen,
the cause-less has to happen.
The desires are the causes,
for the event of the Universe.
The knower of this truth,
will become event-less and
places the heart in the nothingness.
For it's governed by the law of inter-relationships.



Understanding desire-cause-event relationship is not easy. There is an anecdote in the Ramayana. After Rama comes back from Lanka, he approaches Hanuman, hugs him and tells him that the help he has rendered can never be paid back and Rama would not like to pay back as the desire to pay back will put Hanuman into difficulty. Hence Rama says that he will not pay back Hanuman's help and hugs him.

Most of the people have a right intention to help others. However, in our desire to help others, are we desiring to someone else to suffer? Question this approach and this reality. When we are desiring to help someone, we are also desiring to someone to suffer. One's desire of helping is becoming a cause for an event of suffering to happen in others. Understanding the law of inter-relationships accurately will turn one to tend towards cause-less and eventually become desire-less.

In the relativistic world let the help happen through your body, but never desire to help, or anticipate for some kind of a return. Pray for others that their desires be exhausted. That is the greatest help one can do. Help others in making them desire-less.

When we help others to become desire-less, it will be lead to cause-less which ceases all the futuristic events finally leading to liberation from the cycle and law of inter-relationships.
