Your World, Intuitively
Awareness holds no anger, ever. Anger connects you to the mundane and unimportant acts of others and your own, drawing you away from the unfathomable surrounding you. Let others be their silly selves while you discharge your silliness with clarity, honesty, and detachment.
Wonders you will see even amid so much importance given to the unimportant!
Self-debasing at any level is driven by the stories you tell of its beginnings. Do you see? Stories fuel a protracted struggle to reach an arbitrary level taught and believed must be achieved to overcome your “less-than-ness” caused by something that no longer exists in reality. But the telling of the stories never seems to stop. Isn’t what you should do obvious?
Any story you tell of you is not you. It is fiction’s invasion of you now and now, regardless of any idea you attach to it, is perfection only someone without any story can experience. Don’t waste “now” with anything that isn’t, and your story, no matter how grand or horrific, “isn’t.”
YOU are perfect now; it is the only place or time you will be. So, right now seems like an excellent place to begin your perfect reality.
Collective outrage takes root in a single heart at war with itself plus another, plus another, etc. Do you see? Plusses and minuses are you aligning with a feeling or mood that does nothing more than separate you from YOU, and while “you” may feel energized and victorious, YOU are nowhere to be found.
No collective is worth your loss of wholeness and connection. Where’s your heart? Not that one, the real one!
If you believe that you have figured it out, know why and where you are, and have discovered your reason for being, you’d never have to repeat your history, speak your truth, or explain how you got to your incredible awareness. Transformation comes without explanation or reason and is indescribable in any language and non-transferable. You will never convince anyone that you “know the way.” In other words, awareness is exclusively full of mystery and surprise for you.
Afterward, all you can do is be aware and recognize that the same awareness stands right next to everyone else you encounter, only not yet realized by them. It makes it ever so easy to love everyone! It’s pretty cool when you think about it, but don’t “think” about it. Just love!
Ease in living comes when all your means to understand life are exhausted. In other words, you will never understand, but the release from trying will free you to witness life doing what it does and doing it despite all the reasons you and everyone else make up about it under the guise of understanding.
Life works; it just does, and you, without understanding a thing about it, “work” too if you simply live and love what is right now. You can’t learn anything if you don’t know the subject, and life offers no subjects. That’s all you need to understand.
Everything is as it is; no one can refute or change that. However, humans have spent thousands, if not millions of years, struggling against it, and for what? Humans have reasoned that we can improve what we have failed to see. We’ve concluded that we’re smarter than the creation that allowed us to experience the created; thus, in our hubris, “we will fix it.” Do you see the arrogance?
If you are on any side of “fixing” the world or anyone/anything in it, you are the problem, not its solution. Humility does not exist in the noise of the crowd. No, not even yours. However, humility is the only peace on Earth you will ever experience.
The simple answer to life’s mysteries is “I don’t know,” but not knowing in no way affects your experience. It might even add some “peace” you had not seen before.
“Can life be more meaningful?” the questioner asked. “Don’t you mean that you have some idea of what life can give you that makes you feel better about it?” was the answer.
No part of your experience is happening because you believe it is for your good, bad, or unfolding some purpose you want it to have. You (ego) bring(s) all of that to the party, and what you think is a buzzkill for any party. Regardless of what you experience, YOU are the most incredible show on earth, and while it is all yours, it has nothing to do with anything you “thought” it should be. What you believe “meaningful” isn’t. Living what is, is.
It is often said, “It’s the journey, not the destination,” but it’s neither in reality. Life’s sweetness is, ultimately, in living it. That is living each moment well and impeccably. Do you see? Destinations are conceptual creations of minds that are not content with what’s happening now and distractions from the only place the “real” exists, e.g., right here, right now. The “journey” leads you away from “here and now,” and all “destinations” are imaginary.
Your so-called “higher self” is not waiting for you to “get there” so that your life suddenly turns into something you’ve dreamed of that doesn’t look like your life. YOU are here now, and it is the sweetest place in the universe if your mind is off and your heart is on. Live well, smile, and be your best. You’ll never have to be or do anything else.
What is it about you, me, or anyone who thinks there is something more to life than what is right now? Shallow experience is what you think about, while the only thing you can experience is what’s happening now. Do you see? Reality never carries the seeds of thoughts, contemplation of what might come later, or comparisons to what has passed. Only humans do that and, in so doing, replace “what is” with the thoughtful, dull, repetitious drone of “what isn’t.”
Lose yourself to silence and quietly watch the magic appear. Actually, it won’t appear; you’ll simply recognize what is always there but hidden behind the clutter of thoughts. You don’t need “more” in life; you need less of what you “think” it should be.
You have the answers, yet you cram for the test as if they will magically change just as you are about to answer them. You ace the test and feel the relief of knowing just what needs to be said to satisfy the test-giver but still don’t know what you thought you would, so by all means, cram some more. There’s another test just ahead. “Cram” information into your head about experiencing life, and all you gain is information that draws you away from actually experiencing it. Do you see? The manual for living has never been written and never will be. You “write” as you go, but you’ll never be tested because life cannot fail, no matter how much you cram for it.
Let the words of your experience disappear so that each moment contains a blank page on which you will write anew, a life whose only expression is wonder and awe. You won’t be tested, but what you experience will be “crammed” full.
