What is the philosophical basis of equanimity? Is it an element imposed from outside, or a spontaneous state of mind?Equanimity cannot be imposed. It is the fundamental nature of the soul. From the point of view of consciousness, all souls are equal. All have an equal capacity for development. This is the philosophical basis of equanimity. All the inequalities found in human society, all conceptions based upon untouchability, sex, etc. are man created, not natural. Material inequalities are also imaginative impositions.
From the point of view of utility or convenience, the caste, regional and national frontiers are all artificial and unnatural. Devoid of intellectual or utilitarian divisions, the whole of mankind is one, indivisible, each human being endowed with the same existential capacity. There should be no imposition of inequality there.
