The “search” for most is a return to the safety and security of the mythological garden where all wants are fulfilled, and mother, father, and angels stand guard to protect you. In other words, “safety is the search, and it never ends because “what YOU are” never appears in such a garden. You will never find “what YOU are” but among the thorns and thistles. Do you see? Adam and Eve were not cast out of the garden, they were cast into it. Let go of your “garden (idyllic) home” and something unfathomable will appear, e.g., YOU.

Of what are you aware? Is your venture into whatever your experience happens to be about you singularly facing a world that acts upon you in positive or negative ways, or do you experience a world that bustles with movement and surprise, as if “it” is living you? You live or are lived. Living (for most) is a series of snapshots that narrowly focus on you in the world. Being “lived” makes you the whole world. You don’t “choose” one or the other. You simply are; when you know what you are.

If we continue to see things in terms of right and wrong, we will never resolve the fundamental argument with life most of us have, e.g., “Why is life not fair?” Life does not care what you think and why you think it. It moves constantly and inexorably into new horizons that only a mind free of argument can experience.
Life is fair, but only a mind that divides it into rightness and wrongness will question it otherwise. This is the biggest reason for being “out of your mind.”

Do you know who you are? Most unfortunate. Whomever or whatever you consider yourself to be is only an illusion, a role, a mask. That is, any thought of you is not you. When you strip away everything you consider yourself to be, what is left is not a “who” but a “what,” and that, A.K.A., YOU is indescribable. WHAT? Exactly!

There are no rules to spirituality, so if you obsess over any of it, you most likely have created a set of them (rules) that are nothing more than figments of your imagination, aka stuff you or someone else has made up. Solution? Stop making stuff up, and stop believing those who do!

What are your labels? How do you define, describe, or think of yourself? So, so sad; Your labels are your limits. What YOU are cannot even be imagined in your wildest, most far-reaching dreams. Why would you attempt to do so? Got labels, got limits. It’s just that simple.

The “work” you do to change your life (for whatever reason) serves only to prevent you from living it. Do you see?” If you’re going to “work,” work hardest at knowing “What YOU Are” outside any work.
