Trinity

In Indian mythology, the universe is held together by three sorts of energies/forces/aspects of God. One, creation, creative energy, where form is created from the formless. Second, preservation, maintenance energy. And third, dissolution or back to formlessness. And the cycle keeps repeating.

As a person, a being in this universe, if one is ever lost, perhaps one finds oneself in the throes of one of these key energies. Either creating something, this could include copying a creation, imitating, getting influenced, inspired, learning, growing, imbibing, in daily simple acts like noting down a beautiful poem, or cooking something quietly, or perhaps learning a new word. Or it could be the second act, that of preserving, restoring order or harmony. It could be as simple as cleaning or tidying, restoring balance and order, the maintenance activities, think of it as restoring order. And the third one, I have wondered about it, what sort of dissolution, perhaps that of the self? Something that can absorb you completely so that there is no awareness of a self, where you can dissolve in the activity that you are pursuing, where it is just you and the action, something so absorbing. Sometimes it is found in action, sometimes, in the acts of creation or restoring, sometimes in exercise, sometimes in reading where you enter a new world, or perhaps in sleeping and dreaming where you feed the formless, could be anything, anywhere, where you become one again with the formless. It is from this formless that creation picks out a new form, again and again. 

Perhaps these three simple things, one can find one's orientation and perspective back - create (cook, copy), restore (clean, order, balance, harmony), dissolve (absorb the self completely). 

Something to practice and learn.
