38 Codes of imagination

Many years ago when I had a chance to be quite proximate to a spiritual guru for a brief period, there was one thing that I heard from him.

It was that when praying to Lord Shiva (one among the Brahmanical trinity), one has to imagine that one is Lord Shiva. That is, to imagine oneself in the form of Lord Shiva, with all His appendages. When we do this, we will start acquiring certain spiritual enhancements.

Even though, initially one might feel that this is a cranky idea, I have found that there is a deeper input in this suggestion.

Something similar is usually practised in temporal life by most discerning feudal language speakers. The value of an association is quite different from that understood in English. In feudal languages, if there are a variety of choices with which one can mentally associate oneself with, the best option for effective personality enhancement would be to imagine powerfully that one is associated with the top-most group.

It automatically gives a feeling of being on a higher level. Even the mention of a link to a lower group as an association can literally bleed one’s stature in the code view arena.

People do use name-dropping, deliberate, yet seemingly casual mention of connection to higher people etc. to convey this imagination to others. The effect in feudal languages is that the numerical value addition directly gets connected to the indicant word codes. Since there is no such thing in English, the exact affect cannot be replicated in English.

In a way this has a connection to everyday sights. I have been told that the very presence of native-English speakers in some low-social order social areas do give a numerical value addition to the mental stature.

It is the issue of what one sees one to be part of. The quality of the people group around one, with constant proximity one starts to think that one is a part of, can make powerful changes in one’s personality and stature.

There shall be a slow change of behavioural pattern, way of walking, postures, manners or lack of it, civic behaviour etc. Even though from a physical view, one might find logical reasons for all these changes, actually if we do go beyond the real view and seek out in the code view, one would be able to see quite tangible changes in the codes.

There is more to be mentioned about the issues of imagination. However, it might lead to another subject. I leave it here.
