BETWEEN CERTAINTY AND UNCERTAINTY ( II )

Immersed in duality we face the day to day between the certainty and uncertainty. We have the certainty that we have to face specific tasks, we know how to do it, but as long as the hypothetical future does not become present, uncertainty will remain as to how the facts will unfold. Certainty is unity, the verified, the known. Uncertainty is duality, perhaps yes perhaps no, because it has not been completed or has not been verified. We want security, but the subject to movements and changes cannot be assured. What is permanent, indestructible, strengthens the confidence so that is it predictable. The subject to oscillations, not controllable by us, depending on nature or other persons, inevitably keep us in the uncertainty. We begin the day with a few purposes, a new day to fill, but we don´t know what will happen, what contingencies may arise, of the planned what will be executed and what will not. The conditions of the moment, adjust and readjust continuously. In a second what was firm, solid, consistent, can deteriorate or disappear. Our life made to make constant connections between the left behind and the next novelty, it does not guarantee durability. Now we are here present and tomorrow we don´t know if we will continue in this world. Everything is transitory, provisional, but we must proceed from action to action, from one realm to another in an everchanging present. The certainty acquired by knowledge and experience are the resources employed in the purposes, and as we fill in the gaps, uncertainty becomes certainty. The spiritual precepts are intangible, and we see through experiences the results. They serve as a reference, they are permanent and eternal, being a mainstay of certainty when checking them over and over again. The actions commited for material purposes must be based on spiritual principles. The principles give us certainty, the process underway is uncertain, with the certainty that the result will be in line to the approach or distance respect to the basic principles.

BETWEEN CERTAINTY AND UNCERTAINTY ( I )

For more planning, each new day must be filled with knowledge and resources. Let´s look for what we don´t have, uncertainty for certainty of how to proceed. We obtain certainty through experience and results. We rely on precedents. Uncertainty can be an unfinished process where external factors can bring unforeseen surprises. Certainty are evidences from a past, and uncertainty it has connotations for the future. Certainty is an element of security, and uncertainty is synonymous of insecurity. Let´s be more or less aware, everyone knows there are some patterns to follow which serve as a referent to act to fit into the collective. If we follow the postulates trying to be correct, we can have the certainty of good results at the end. Instead, the transgressions materials or spirituals, sooner or later lead to a debt to pay. The uncertainty is not know when neither how nor in what proportion. Certainty requires testing : weigh, see, measure, because if we can´t weigh, see or measure,then they are assumptions or perceptions, and if they not materialize in facts they are only speculations. Certainty wants tangible demostrations otherwise we can not be sure. From uncertainty to certainty it passes on the basis of concretions. And for more mastery or knowledge, if it depends on third parties or the environment, uncertainty will hover. The dependence on nature, on exchanges, makes us vulnerable and it keeps in uncertainty about what we will get in the short or long term. Between the desire and the reality we are constantly debating, in a changing environment at the mercy of uncontrollable elements, and for more knowledge of cause, uncertainty accompanies us every day.
