The Science of Being and Art of Living Book
WHAT IS BEING?
Being is Life. It is existence. To be is to live, to exist. Being or existence finds expression in the different aspects of living: thinking, speaking, doing, experiencing, feeling. All aspects of life have their basis in Being.
The question arises, then, of how to understand Being in terms of all the different aspects of life with which we are familiar. How can we know Being in terms of the world, and what is Its relationship with the world of forms and phenomena in which we live?
How can we distinguish existence from that which exists?
Existence is abstract; that which exists is concrete.
We may say that existence is life itself, while that which exists is the ever-changing phenomenal phase of the never-changing reality of existence. Existence is the abstract aspect of life on which are built what we call the concrete phases of life which encompasses all aspects of the individual – Body, Mind, Thinking, Speaking, Acting, Behaving, Experiencing, and Influencing the surroundings, including all aspects of cosmic existence.
Life expresses itself in different modes of living. That which is lived is the expression of life; that which exists is the expression of existence.
Existence, life, or Being is the unmanifested reality of all that exists, lives, or is. Being is the ultimate reality of all that was, is, or will be. It is eternal and unbounded, the basis of all the phenomenal existence of the cosmic life. It is the source of all time, space, and causation. It is the be-all and end-all of existence, the all-pervading eternal field of the almighty creative intelligence. I am That eternal Being, thou art That, and all this is That eternal Being in its essential nature.
This is an excerpt from his book Science of Being and Art of Living. He explained in detail about the practical aspects of Transcendental Meditation in this book.
