Magic

There are four known fundamental forces in the universe. Gravity, Electromagnetism, Weak Nuclear Force and the Strong Nuclear Force...
However there is also a fifth force called Magic.

Yes! Magic is a real physical force and it is the most powerful of all the forces, yet most of us don't believe in it. It has somehow gone into the realm of fantasy and children's movies.

The first four forces are all based on the interactions of particles and the charges and energy produced during those interactions. Magic however employs a different method, it employs the mind, our mind.

So this brings us to the the birth of Magic. Magic did not exist in the early Universe, at that point human kind did not exist and because of that, there was no mind to bring it forth. However as Earth came into being about 4 billion years ago and Humanity started to evolve, magic evolved with it.

Yet we don't see it around us and the main reason for that is that Magic does not live in the same dimension as the rest of us. It's great destructive potential is hidden from us lest we destroy everything that exists, yes it is that powerful!

I know all this talk seems like psycho babble to most but here is where it gets interesting. I'm not talking about magic as some euphemism for positive thinking and any of that silliness. No I'm actually going to explain how this amazing force came into my life and how I was able to harness it and use it. Anyone can bring it into their lives and use it and perhaps my story will help you to do that. Whether you use it for good or evil is totally upto you. Though you know that I tend to go towards the evil, but that's just me.

So anyway, before I begin telling you all the details, I must first tell you about the history of Magic. Like I said earlier, it lives in a different dimension. The realm of Magic has purposely been separated from us by "The Thirteen". The Thirteen were the Masters of Magic in humanity's earliest history and they realised that if Magic was as freely available to all people it's sheer magnitude of force would overwhelm us and destroy us. The power of Magic is too intoxicating and as human beings we were not ready for it back then. So they got together and literally pushed the force out of our current dimension into the one right next to us.

However, this does not mean that we cannot use it. It can be used but we must first bring it back into our own dimension. This process is the most challenging process and it will take thirteen people to accomplish. Remember however, that bringing it into our dimension can only happen for thirteen minutes at a time but that much time is more than enough to be able to use its amazing power.

This is how it all began for me. So one normal day, I was in office when I discovered a brown envelope sitting on my desk. I don't know how it got there and no one could tell me who brought it. It seemed weird but I didn't think too much of it. I opened it to discover a piece of paper with the following instructions on it.

"This is a gift. You have been chosen! You are 5th of the 13 that have received this gift. All 13 need to come together for you to receive your gift. It is up to you to accept. If you do not accept another will be chosen.
Do you accept ?"

I found myself saying YES in my mind and as I said it more words magically appeared on the paper.

"Thank you for accepting. You are going to be given a great power and with that will come a huge responsibility. To activate this power, you need to speak 3 words from the current book you are reading. 6th word on page 43, 1st word on page 107, 40th word on page 116"

I had the mis fortune to have been reading "I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell" at that moment and so my words were, "asshole", "bingeroso", and "prostitutes". I went in to say the words aloud and then watched as the last characters on the letter appeared.

"On the 5th of November at 1PM IST call this number xxx-xxx-xxxx". That was it, 5th November was 2 weeks away and so I waited for the day to arrive, patiently at first and with growing excitement as the days went by...

Spirituality

I've decided to write a blog, it doesn't stem from any need to put my thoughts out there or even as a hobby. No! it comes from a deep need to use my iPad and this new software (I know its not new but I just discovered it) called BlogPress.

So here goes, my first blog...
I want to attempt something lofty today..."Spirituality" yes thats going to be my topic.
You see I think everyone is looking at Spirituality all wrong.
I asked a few people at random, what are their first thoughts when they think of Spirituality

Some said...
Meditation, tarot card readers, astrologers, peace, calm, positivity...

While others took the names of all the gods they believed in, I wont innumerate them cause, well there are just too many.
Anyway, I then came across this tiny little creature (some people call them children) eating Ice-Cream (actually it looked like the Ice-Cream was eating her but anyway). So I asked her what she thought of Spirituality.
And she said, with almost manic excitement in her eyes "Ice-Cream" and then proceeded to lick off the offending rivulets of cream which were now causing a deluge in her arm...

I just shook my head at the child's clear inefficient way of eating that ice cream, I mean c'mon by the amount of Ice-Cream these monsters consume they should be pros at it, I guess thats why these strange creatures are so short...most of their food is wasted on their clothes and body.

Anyway so here I was with no clear answer as to what Spirituality was and was about to give up on the subject when I decided to test the little creatures theory, mostly it was because that Ice-Cream did seem quite yummy but I convinced myself that it was for the benefit of my research.

So I bought a few scoops of varying flavours and sat down trying to discover Spirituality.
The first lick of the cold creamy dessert came rushing into my senses like a long forgotten dream, It was sooooo delicious and I proceeded to then, clear the entire contents of my bowl as fast and efficiently as possible, savouring every moment of pleasure that it gave me.
Once finished, I looked up and saw that unlike that little creature, I had managed to eat it all without it forming a fjord on my person. I jumped up with excitement at my feat patting myself on the back for having out-performed the little creature.
I had completely forgotten all about my research. In that first lick of Ice-Cream I had completely lost myself in its yummy creaminess and now after it was gone I was just left with a memory of how wonderful it was and now after the excitement was over I realised that my research was still incomplete.

I stood there for a moment, scratching my head, trying to decipher what to do next, how to proceed with my research, when that little creature came trancing along (apparently thats how they move, by trancing, its a special skill and I have not mastered it yet) and said to me "Sipi-alee-tee" and then ran away making those awful noises that creatures of her kind make all the time (some people call it giggling).

And there I had it, conclusive proof that Ice-Cream is Spirituality and these small creatures are probably the most "Sipi-alee-tual" creatures on the planet.

My point is, Spirituality is not a lofty ideal or something to be thought about and mastered, it is the experience of the moment, the joy in the everyday things. It is anything and everything...it can be meditation or a car, A Guru or your friends and in my case it was a small little creature eating Ice-Cream.

Disclaimer: I was not paid by the Ice-Cream companies for this blog, well not in cash anyway :-)
