An Essay by M.A. Rathore
Literature is a spiritualism and meditation. It is the main source of spiritualism for ages. With the creation of spirituality in writing the divine and ultimate aim of motivational meditation can be seen in literary writings. This spirituality can only be obtained by doing pure and natural behaviour with the purity of work and action by the norms and values of the traditional society. In this changing scenario of the world, free and spiritual writing is solely responsible for getting salvation at least for the authors and the question still grows how free meditation can be achieved through writing literary epistles.
It is to be said about the usage of free writing in literature. Firstly, what is the chief aim of free writing in literature? Is it for seeking pleasure? Is it closely related to our life? The most mystical poetess of India named Maha Devi Verma wrote about the importance of ideal literature in the fields of life, arts, and literature that idealism, having been absolved us, shows the combination of power to perceive the innermost hidden darkness of our sluttish narrow-mindedness. It provides us the wings to fly for the macrocosm with our limited knowledge and blesses us with the enlightenment of life combining our divided feelings. Unless or until the ideal ism spreads in the limitless colors and forms of the earth and its expanse of limitless extending as clouds in the sky, it is to be the sole aim of a spot of nothingness as in the silent clouds of winter. Idealism is used in the sense of specific conventions and assumptions, especially in the fields of science, philosophy, and literature. Idealism is against materialism and it is said to be the complement of spiritualism but there is always some difference in the unity of time and place.
Regarding the usage being the synonym of aestheticism, Socrates has written in a place that a basket full of cow dung is said to be the most beautiful aspect of aestheticism if it has a usage while a shining sword does not have any value if it is incomplete in its usage.
Life's philosophy and its values are developed with the meditation of free - writing. A man becomes a spiritual being after having developed his personality. There are three things based on truth, peace, and pleasure that are the quality of God's absolute form viz. Knowledge, impulse, and action. Knowledge is related to truth, action to consciousness, and the impulse to ecstasy. So according to God's attributes, these three elements are important in human life. Modern psychologists accept these three elements searching for the absolute form in all the things attributing the sameness not only in science, philosophy, and ethics but also in literature freely written.
Our soul dwindles in search of aestheticism but it is hard to get the pleasure of it. We can get its aesthetic pleasure only by going through the serious reading of great world literature come what may they belong to in any religion or any practice with deep brooding using the specific mental powers of all our understanding. So far it is satisfied with the absolute reasoning power and deep study that makes us nothingness. Aestheticism is beyond reason. It is but an impulse to feel.
Aesthetic idealists give importance
to spiritualism against materialism, microcosms against realism, and pragmatism
against imagination. The use of idealism in the field of literature is not for one and the other class of poetic genre or movement but for all in a
specific way. So it is important to maintain a balance between realism and idealism.
This is what we call meditation in literature and frees - spirit in writing. (c)
