Kasunyatan
This is reality, a true perfectness. When you reach 'kasunyatan'your life is perfect, your life is unseparable with the source of life, Gusti, God the Almighty. Who can bring you to kasunyatan? Your true life!
Watch your physical body, command it to be in better and better path by avoiding evil wishes and deeds. Command your thinking and mind to have only good and correct wishes, avoid bad temptations. When you are entirely ready, physically and spiritually, do spiritual exercises. Your body is calm (Heneng), your mind is clean, concentrate thoroughly (Hening), in holiness request a guidance from Gusti, All-loving God. You are meditating by adjusting your breathing peacefully. Calmly, regularly. Be comfortable until you feel in a state of silent peace.
When you are in the correct true path, your true life could show you the way, so you should reach true perfectness (kasampurnan sejati) i.e. kasunyatan (reality). The Javanese old men say: "To live as human is easy and difficult". Easy, if the light of true life has dimmed the light of physical body. Difficult, if the light of true life is faded by the light of physical body.
The right of life is only one i.e. you are able to unite your life with your true life - the eternal life, which is now imprisoned in your physical body. This is your true duty! A big obstacle in searching perfectness is if you can't control your desire, you can't erase completely your desire as there is no living human without desire. But you should use your desire in positive way. You should be determined to conquer your desire wishing only to please your physical body. After your desire surrenders i.e. could not tempt you anymore, take care well your physical body because physical body is a useful tool to reach your goal of perfect life.
You have to reach perfect life when your physical body is still healthy, in good condition otherwise you would be late. The most noble goal is to perfect your life before your physical body is damaged. Where does your life come from? Definitely it comes from holy life. So, it's clear. It is your duty to find a proper way, to return life to where it belong. But do not search a way to die, that's wrong. Instead, find a proper spiritual efforts (laku batin) now, not tomorrow, so you have a true feeling in eternal life (urip langgeng) you are not worried of 'sadness' and 'gladness', you are not worried of any situation you encounter. You should have a true feeling: to live together with the Creator of life, whose gives you life.
You should always remember, that your life is eternal, you don't begin and you don't stop it. Once again, always remember until the moment comes: I live. Don't worry about it. Because if you are still worried by having feeling of sad, glad, afraid, regret, joyful etc, it indicates that you do not live, it's the life of your physical body's lusts. Your life does not need that kind of things. Your life needs to be united with eternal life, there is no change (tan owah gingsir)
From true knowledge (kawruh sejati) point of view, when a human dies, it means the rough body dies, but life lives. That's why, do not be afraid 'to die' and do not be sad if some of your families die. Have confidence that they live with eternal life, because life never dies.
There is no one in the world who can bring you to kasunyatan (perfect life), not even a saint nor a great Guru, except you-yourself guided by your Guru Sejati (True Guru) in your true feeling.
The human lives in the world is the wish of Gusti. You should be always grateful and worship (mangastuti) only to Gusti, God the Almighty.
