Truth gets swept into the unimportant and the unnecessary, and you hold the broom that so masterfully does the sweeping. The clear view is not beholden to thought; the only thing needing sweeping is what you believe. Clear your mind, and the house is without the need for sweeping.

If all that is is spiritual (and it is), then any position you take, belief you hold, and judgments you make are no more spiritual than others you disparage. Spirituality has nothing to do with your sense of right but everything to do with your sense of wrong. That is, loving the wrong you compare to your right.
Love and spirituality know no opposites. Do you?

How much do you really know? How much can you know? The paradox of human affairs is that we “think” we’re pretty smart and make well-informed decisions and assessments when, in reality, we never have enough data. All judgments are speculative at best and always based on insufficient information.
Question your thoughts as incessantly as they permeate your mind. You may not be able to stop them, but you may get an ever so slight chance to withhold ill-advised judgments and unnecessary complications in your dealings with others.

The great thing about home; your inner home, that is, is that it never needs to be built. No education, contracts, architectural or engineering drawings, furnishings, landscaping, etc., are required. It is the most beautiful and elegant place in the universe, and all it takes to enter is to vacate all your busy mind’s preconception, judgment, and reason.
Perfection cannot be dreamed, thought, master-planned, or achieved. You enter it, and the good news is that it is always right here, right now, waiting for you to stop by.

Humans love to point at differences and use them to divide one from another. “My way or the highway,” and you are “less than” if you do not see it my way, and of course, “my way” is so pristine, rational, spiritual, and sound, etc., that “I” will always be on higher ground, than you so there can be no argument.
The collective “noise” is your noise, not your security or confirmation of a viewpoint. It is your separation from diversity. All lost because of a fixation on your point of view. It’s not worth it.
Harmony is lost to your perspective, and so too are love, peace, and connection. Forget the collective, else the loss to you will ripple through eternity. You will miss out on something breathtaking.

Wanting is not a driver of getting. Seriously, can you think of anything more grand and wondrous than the breath you are taking right now, your heart beating to a cosmic rhythm, and the essence of all that is coursing through you? How could you “want” anything more incredible than the sun on your face or raindrops tapping your window, a lover’s kiss, a friend’s warm embrace, or a smile?
When you pander to the universe, as we are oft told to do, you give way to the mundane, the selfish, and the unreal. The ultimate joy lies beneath anything you could wish for, and it quietly awaits you to be present with all that you already have, all that you already are. Simply, YOU have everything, and “having” everything means YOU “are” everything! YOU are “joy,” but only when you “want” for nothing!

There is nothing to spirituality. When you’re there, you’ll know, and when you “know,” there’s “nothing” to know.

Humility starts with YOU and ends with love. Do you know YOU? Only “love” knows. Peaceful day, Carl

The dream, expressed or sought, is not living. Your dream of the world only happens when you are present as it happens, transparent, and entirely free of any aspect of it you wish to change or believe otherwise. For most, transparency manifests as surreptitiousness. If I express my life eloquently enough, attempt to go through the motions I profess, etc., no one will see my hypocrisy.
There is no path to awareness through your mind. There is nothing you can do, think, or say, and nowhere you can go to unmask “what YOU are.” Living your dream is what is right now. Assuming it can or should be something else is “the” only nightmare you will ever encounter. Reality is not about you; it is YOU, and it shows most clearly without the mask. I see YOU; truly amazing!

What most call “newness” typically includes the old descriptions into which anything “new” must somehow fit. Do you see? Humans fancy what they know, even though it stands in the way of what is real and “new.” When you act “because” (whatever your reason), you prevent the beauty of new reflection and undefined awareness from entering reality and, likely, do so under the guise that your old descriptions offer some safety and security. It’s being stuck in words, concepts, and definitions.
Live each moment without your priorly formed descriptions of them. “Newness” is all there ever is, but you will only experience it when you are cleared of all you “know.” In other words, what you know keeps you from knowing! Clear your mind, and your experience is “new.”
