The things you cherish cannot be comprehended intellectually, regardless of what they are. You can string eloquent words together, forming profound and beautiful descriptions, but something else tugs on your awareness beyond those descriptions.
It isn’t easy to stay in a state of descriptionless awareness, but you can remain aware that what your mind “thinks” is unimportant folly full of made-up nonsense, all there to keep you from the truly cherished. Shamans call it “controlled folly.” Live as though everything matters, but knowing that what is not or cannot be known on the plain of human experience shakes the foundation of intellect.
Simply, with “mind” (thoughts), you have a lot. Without it, you have infinitely more.

The motive force of all creatures, including humans, is survival. However, humans have an evolutionary nuance that allows them to make up what they consider essential to survival. Do you see?
All the stuff humans make up about human existence is also all they find wrong with it. You came here with nothing, and you will leave with nothing, and everything you uphold, believe, and gather between arrival and departure is nothing.
You have so little time to experience this miracle of life that anything you wrap yourself up in as important blinds you to its treasure. Living requires no opinion, causes, or inventory whatsoever. You know how to live. Stop listening to all the babble humans make up about how to do so! You’ve got this.

Self-importance is the mountain no one successfully climbs. Its incline is steep, and its peak extends forever in the mind that struggles to reach it. Eventually, you’re in the clouds where you can no longer see anything but your ego-imagined self. There is nothing of value on the mountain of self-importance.
Nothing you do in any walk of life is important. That you are “what YOU are” while walking is. YOU have no measure in human “being.”

You cannot blame the depth of ugliness humanity reaches on any individual, collective, religion, politics, or ideology. You can only blame yourself for your contribution to it. What is is you. It’s that simple.
The only path to peace in the world is to remove the ego from it. Not theirs; yours. Not so simple but necessary.

Awareness contains breathtaking mysteries and other worlds passing in front of your eyes that get hijacked by your point of view. In other words, your thinking is not the harbinger of reality but its destroyer.
Don’t try to unravel what you experience. Doing so will only sully the sanctity of it, and you will miss the unfathomable. The awareness of mystery unveils in silence, and so will YOU if you silence what you think!

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.
