Our world is infinitely complex, some of the complexity you can never escape, relations, society.Life by defination embeds you in its midist. Some of the complexity you can choose to ignore. That can sometimes be a smart way to deal with the complexity. You wouldnt care to know how the iron ore was mined , what techniques were used to forge it, what was the pricing mechanism of iron as a commodity when your car went to production. You dont have to make sense of everything.
But its fascinating from an academic perspective, to understand how we try to deal with all this complexity. And its not like we have stopped , our world is becoming ever more complex day by day, we are adding new layers into each activity.
Food was quite simple, only what my mom used to cook, then came the invasion, different cuisines , and suddenly by one stroke, I became a part of the food chain that originates across the globe.
As Aurobindo said, shed that ego, embrace everything, dont see yourself as a separate entity, you are by definition an extension of the one. When sometimes I think along these lines, the boundaries of ego disappears, I see the color in the diversity, complexity seems like an expression of a vibrant life expressing itself in all its glory. This is something to be experienced, not to shy away from. There is no bitterness then for things that seem incompatible, cause like you they are also an extension of the One. You can strangely experience peace amidst all this chaos.
I am striving to return this singular algo in my 'attitude code', but all my present logic is meta data driven which is an infinitely complex meta data structure, with possibly thousands of rows.Only once in a while the attitude code happens to pick the row pertaining to the above attitude :(
