Who has not thought or have been asked, What if you had 3 wishes, what would they be or what would you do with them?
Why linger on something that is impossible? Many say what you think, you become. It is one's intent over time that manifests. Even siddhi¹ is based on intent. So there is some merit in this notion.
With that as a preamble, what would be one's 3 wishes? I have thought of this often over the years as it is 'easy' entertainment - but it is also a suggests one's values. Here's what I have been pondering as my 3.
My 1st wish
… would be over a 5 year period; the people of the world ( in mass) would open-up to and actively pursue the advancement of their spiritual nature.
That there would be spiritual regeneration around the world, as if sat yuga was about to begin once more. People would quite naturally be attracted to SELF-development and pursue it in a balanced manner. To this affect, people would then become realized beings, exponents of Reality over time…
Yajvan, why over 5 years? Why not tomorrow? A reasonable question. I have been taught that the characteristics of Creative Intelligence ( śiva + śakti) has the following manifesting qualities::
Adaptable - infinite variety to change and adapt, then;
Stabilizing - stabilize those changes i.e.
Integrative - integrate them into the system, but will;
Purify - purify/nurture what is life-support and eliminate that which is not, therefore over time;
Growth occurs - spiritual growth, mental, intellectual, structural growth occurs and supports the 'system'. This 'system' can be the human, the family, society, the nation, the world, the universe and solar systems carried within.Hence - IMHO allowing time to unfold allows these qualities to mature and stabilize in a meaning ful manner.
My 2nd wish
… is that of nature, the comic impulses of this universe ( including the 3 guna-s , the devatā, etc. ); they would support and advance/participate in the success of my 1st wish. That is, support and stabilize this intent and make it so over time.
My 3rd wish
…is interesting. My 3rd wish would be for more wishes! Hey, that's not fair!!! That's cheating, no? Nope. The 3rd wish ( for all that care to particpate in this idea) comes with rules and boundary conditions, which are the following:
1. Any additional wish must be life-supporting to the family of man
2. The wish must advance one's dharma, purpose, and/or spiritual pursuit & ;
3. The wish innately must be sattvic in nature
Hence the 3rd wish by its nature is self-spurfiying and a natual fit for how this Creative Intelligence manifests.
For that, I then will leave my 3rd wish for a upcoming post. Yet today, it is for more wishes, and I will outline a few later.
That said, what would you be your thinking on your 3 wishes?
