'म' तत्व | The 'Me' Element
" 'म' तत्व ( 'Mah' tatwa ) " or "The 'Me' Element"
I was pondering upon myself when I realised there was someone beside me. A little surprised, I asked"Who are you?" They replied,"I am you." The facial,bodily details matched. So did the voice. I was surprised. "Then, who am I?" I asked.
"You are you as well." Replied another voice. Their facial details, voice and everything matched with me as well. As I asked more questions, more people started showing up who looked, felt and sounded just like me until the seventh guy answered, "I am me". Everyone else had been saying "I am you" till then. This was a little amusing. I had by then realised that somehow I had manifested different forms of my ego into seperate forms of existence for themselves. One claimed to be my ego, other claimed to be my humor, other to be my logic, other my grief and so on. They were all just me, part of me atleast, manifested, except for the last? Except for the last one because they claimed themselves to be themselves and not me.
"Then who am I?" I asked, hoping for a different answer than what others had been saying. "You are me too bro. But I am not just you." They replied.
'Bro'. Bro is something I say casually, out of habit. Something that signifies me to be me myself if you will. And using that phrase, didn't they just signify themselves to be me as well somehow?
The confusion was visible in my eyes. They then continued, " I am me. You are me. I am the essence upon which the life form rests, and I am what keeps everything alive connected or relevant. I am a part of you but so am I the part of everyone else."
I then came to a realisation that they should be the life energy. A different element that makes us conscious. The 'Me' element, or " 'Mah' tatwa".
That was the story Sauharda told me about the Mah tatwa. It made me wander too.
Think about it. Every human being is a human being. In fact, every life there is, is alive. They all have certain variations among each other. Piyush is piyush and sauhard is sauhard. George is george and Ahmed is Ahmed. Dog is a dog, plant is a plant. Everything is different. But we are all the same in some way that is that we have life. We are all created by same base pairs and same amino acids. Our embryos are the same but the circumstances and habit and habitat had brought us up into being different. Seperated from the same seed of commonness called life.
That life force that thrives us is me. The life is in me, I have Me, you have me too. Me is in everyone. Me is the oneness. The core of human being.
Me is in the universe, me is in the human, me is in the fear and negative emotions we have, me is in the transformation, me is in the imagination, me is in the creation, and me is in the creator. The seven egos have manifested differently outside of Me. The seven sins have manifested outside of Me. The seven lives we have (hinduism says that after death, the person is reincarnated again in other life and we have 7 such reincarnations or 7 lives in total) are manifested in Me. Me is in the seven realms, seven reality, and Me is in the seven doppelgangers. The universe seems so much entangled with 'Seven' don't you think?
And Me is nowhere else but in my soul. We carry the universe within ourselves. The creation is with us, so is the creator. We carry fear as well as faith within us. we carry the sin and the sage within us. We have the power to think, imagine, and also the power to transform or grow, bloom into something completely new. Everything is with us, the seven threads connected together to the core or the Mah tatwa, or the Me element. So, why not keep faith in what we have and accept what the life has to offer? We are already rich with the Mah tatwa or the me element aren't we? What more do we wish for than that which is being asked for us by fate or destiny. Nobody can rob us off of our such kind of riches, so why be afraid of destiny or the life ahead? Amor fati; Don't be afraid to labor, don't be afraid of failure, accept the future no matter how it is. Because we are already complete, all we need is to look within and have faith in ourselves.
