Detachment-Delight Of Existence

Ideas on detachment started lingering in me after going through the chapter:
Delight of Existence – The Solution – to find out why we feel the pain.

Out of all lines what attracted me was:
– In its essence, it is self-representation.
– It is cause and purpose of the play.
– Our understanding must begin here. [Page 102 Para 6]

I am not going deep into what are pain and pleasure for body, vital and mind. I am giving below the gist of what I understood from two line summary and few line chapter summaries of Life Divine.

– Delight is the secret of Creation.
– Its existence lies in variable realization of its possibilities.
– The greatest joy is discovery – coming out of ignorance in which we got immersed -is discovery.
– I have the free will for that, freedom to do that, by which I discover all that is hitherto unknown to me.
– Every pain has other end as Joy.
– I cannot find that because I have got an imperfect evolutionary process in me.
– It is complete failure of my present consciousness to meet the unpleasant or adverse happening in my existence.
– I must accept pain and transform it. I have no obligation to experience it or return pain as response.
– Because there is indulging delight of existence in everything happening to me.
– Free unegoistic calm harmonious mind is the only conqueror of my egoistic limitations;

So the solution can be put into three broad categories:

1) Detachment
– I failed to see that all is because of me only, my attitudes, my decisions, my wanting, my preferences, brought all these and failed in observation and acceptance of my ignorance and self-applied limitations.
– I failed to think in terms of higher consciousness in totality by attaching my ego to all happenings;
– Detachment with calm nerves, non-reaction, silence is the solution to see the “Rasa” by not acting impulsively for all unfolding of life without seeing the actual joy behind the pain and discomfort.

2) Looking Inside
– The oneness with the persons, situations, and happenings, correlating all with correspondence, motives and attitudes, to overcome the separateness and divisions developing a stability in Being.
– Understanding that I am the Divine with all possibilities inherited to experience the Delight.

3) Opening to Above
– To overcome the two categories above, taking the supramental perception directly to get free from formed views and perspectives, unconsciously behaving based on our habits, ego based attitudes, to be always with rhythm of harmony and making harmony as only standard.
