Origin:
Lying on the grass gazing to the stars
What lies beyond the Heavens?
What's beneath the Earth?
What am I?
Eyes staring into the universe
And the universe was her
Mother
Mom
Ma
Those were the most natural words that came from him
The senses that were overwhelming were calmed
The tranquil words that sang like birds
The harmony of the voice gave vibrations that calmed him
Her soft embrace gave him the care of the world
Nestled as close as can be
Her pulse, created his pulse
Their hearts beat in harmony
All his needs were met
He couldn't talk
He couldn't understand
Yet he understood everything
Her love gave him his heart
The heart to beat in this world
The overwhelming world was conquered from the pulse of the heart
But little did he know, the cruelty of the world
The mother of Ata
Treaded the world
Her suffering was changed to love for Ata
She was weak but smart
Foraging all sorts of sustenance
She fed and nurtured him
She could tell whatever he needed
When he was hungry she fed him
When he was crying she soothed him
Ata grew quickly
He would wander the world
Stuffing his mouth with all sorts of things
She had to always watch him incase he digested something bad
So she taught him to observe animals
And how they were his friends
Then the first time they met humans
His mother was attacked by 'barbarians'
She was assaulted and died in agony
He couldn't do anything
Helpless and Powerless
An overwhelming emotion surged through him
After escaping and running
He felt anger, grief, sadness, hatred, fear
The whirlwind of emotion warped his internal world
His insides twisted in agony
The memories of his mother flashed through him
Like a the rushing of a river
It flooded his psyche
The Love and Joy
He felt
It
Love and Joy
Were devoured
And fed to his Wrath
Anger, grief, sadness, hatred, fear
He didn't know what was happening but he didnt care
The coalescence of it formed a core of energy
He collapsed
One day…
Two days…
Three days…
He rose again
Ata started walking with vengeance
All his animal friends?
He hunted them
And Ate their flesh
It fueled his desires
Yet he felt stronger than ever
Power coursed through him
From his core he used his energy
Drawing it from his desires
The first Asura walked the Earth
Shaking it to its very core
Asura
Walked the earth
He finally found other barbarians
He killed them and pillaged their women
The legends and myths were spoken across all the scattered human tribes of the world
He left chaos in his wake
And he only got stronger as he was lost in his wrath of the world
His world was his mother
The world killed his mother
Therefore he will vow to kill the world
As the years went on he felt numb
Everything he did felt hopeless
He couldn't destroy the world
The world was simply too big and vast
Caked in dirt and blood his real body was horrific
The years flashed by in his rage
One day he decided to wash himself in the river
He floated staring at the sky from dawn to dusk
Lost in thought
Drifting Soundlessly in the Waters
He felt the world for the first time again
It felt like he was in the cradle of the universe
Soft and flowing and calming
He recalled a feeling he long lost
The feeling of calm and tranquility he only felt in the embrace of his mother when he was born
He gazed into the night sky full of stars
It reminded him of when he stared into the night back when she was alive
Even in darkness there was light
Slowly lost in temporal thought
He saw the rise of dawn again
And he closed his eyes
The world he felt it
It vibrated with the pulse
The pulse that reminded him of the love
That he once had
But realized he still had it all along
The flow of water caressed him, the warmth of the sun embraced him
The sounds of the world harmonized in his eyes
Once he felt it, he felt the 'Way' again
And he realized what he had done
The recollection of all the carnage he had ever done
Realization hit him
His friends he had killed
He let his rage consume his memories of his mother
And he unleashed untold suffering onto the world
Tears flowed and he couldn't stop
Yet the caress of the world gave him strength
Remembering the suffering he caused and how it will give rise to more
The surging energy core that was once full of desires
Was alchemized and purified into a myriad of light
He sensed a core of energy that radiated outward
Drawing in the energy of the world no
He realized he was the world
He had a lot of thoughts so
He got out of the water
And sat alongside a tree
He closed his eyes and felt what should he do?
One day passed…
Three days passed…
Seven days passed…
He was no longer a being of pure power and desire
He shed his Asura form and absorbed its essence
Finally opening his eyes
If one looked into it, they would see the myriad worlds
The eyes that reflect one's soul back to them
He accepted the darkness in himself
And he understood the profoundness
There he disciplined himself
He meditated
Trained
He gave gratitude
He reconnected with the animals
Everything was one part of the whole
Everything was part of eachother
He saw offsprings of animal and the parents
He wanted something like this
Then he dampened his desire
Was he even worthy?
He would need to be strong enough to protect
So he trained and meditated
The energy core, the dantian
The powerful internal energy he started mastering it
The Qi
Then he started the battle that would last a decade
He was 23 years old
When he decided to fight his Asura
If he had to fight his old self?
He wondered who was stronger?
Closing his eyes to visualize the wild nature of the 'Asura'
He was faster and stronger
How could he overcome this disparity?
As his visualization strengthened in his psyche so did the clarity in the path he took
He could understand the Asura
The paths were direct and berserk
So he fine tuned his movements
He started moving his body in tandem with the Asura in his mental realm
He saw the infinite paths in which he could take fighting the asura
No he felt the flow
"Asura? How can you overcome the world?"
"If I am the world?"
He asked the Asura
Softness vs hardness
Hardness vs softness
He also added to the Asura
It became stronger and more finesse
10 years passed
The seasons have passed 33 times since his birth
He knew it intuitively
Ata traveled across the lands
Until he arrived at a tribe
He only skirted the perimeter
He found a girl that reminded him of his mother
They started a family
Had a son and daughter
He planted seeds of evil as the Asura
No he will raise what is justice, courage, humility, and good
The errors of his way can only be fixed across time
One step at a time
The Greatest battle that will ever exist
Good and Evil
Ravages the World across eons
Will the seeds sowed in Chaos of Evil win…
Or the seeds cultivated with conscious love?
Across the ages
Ata Revives and elevates his conscious losing himself
And finding himself
The world was evolving outside of his 'death'
But his spirit kept coming back
And everytime He overcame the cruelty of the world faster and faster
Mastering the skill of oneness
With all things
He reached the peak of every craft across the eons
The pioneer of humanity
Trailblazing the path forward into the relentless pursuit
We are one
The Earth is against the universe
Can we survive?
To the source we are one on Earth
His eyes flashed with determination
It is time
Humanity must walk to run
And it must run to fly
And to fly must mean it must fall
Across the ages
He showed his brilliance
Writing and art
Hunting, Weapon-crafting
Other times he was scholarly
And other times he was a soldier
Other times he was a General raging war
Coming up with tactics and strategies
One day he traveled the world as boy
He just walked
And walked beyond civilization
And he met others like him
They were peaceful when he walked
They could sense his inability to do any damage
He met people who were enlightened and were blazing a path
They exchanged ideas and paths
Then he went and returned to his homeland
He took it upon himself to sacrifice himself for humanity
He taught
About the sacredness within
The Consciousness and the gateway to the 'Way'
He performed miracle after miracle
He came to a conclusion
I 'can't' make the world a better place if I'm not ready to sacrifice myself for the world
I wanted to make the world a better place
But I didn't even stake my very self, my everything
The 'world' accepted his offer
He sacrificed his dantian, the accumulation of everything the built til now
He sent out an invisible karmic seed to everything on Earth
It acted as a seed of hope for all
A way for salvation
He will take on the burden for all
The world shook after his death
"I love you But I can't save you The world keeps hurting you So I must save the world To save you I must love the world But to do that I must let go Let go of my love for you Discard the Flesh And Give the Spirit To Echo my Death to Eternity Forever A Beacon for All Through the ebb and flow of eras"
