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?

Life hides nothing from you, and there are no hidden secrets, no formulas for success or security. It unfolds as it does, not “to you” or “for you” or with profound reasons that benefit the wise, knowledgeable, and enlightened. Humans make that stuff up only because they can but shouldn’t.
Making up reasons for your life is the path to frustration and upset. Transparency, wonder, mystery, and excitement are what is and will run the gamut of your human capabilities. Only you can create an illusion or a lie, and that will always separate you from real beauty and truth. Embrace your day and experience its reality.

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.

What you consider most obvious is not where your strength lies. The most “obvious” is likely no more than your conditioning to recognize, making it a comfortable confirmation of what you already believe. It’s what you don’t know buried beneath the glamor and eloquence of the obvious, that transforms living the obvious into a life of awareness. Do you see?
Strength, power, love, and the flow of life are not known in apparent ways. These things emanate from the depths of silence, which is the foundation of all that is. YOU are the center of “ALL that is.” You can’t speak it, nor does it ever appear apparent, but YOU are that. Anything beyond “that” is just noise masking the most significant force in the universe, e.g., YOU.

Right now, let “what YOU are” outside egoic epitaphs be the only voice that speaks and the only one that hears. You’ll know this voice because it will not talk in any language or other sensory forms. There is nothing to hear except virtue welling up from the fountain of eternal springs. Don’t sully the waters with your thoughts or expressions.

When you single out anyone as an object of villainy, non-virtue, evil, etc., you’re pointing out the criteria for your judgments. Do you see? All that is must exist “as is” without your or anyone’s analysis and commentary about what should or shouldn’t be, and if you can’t find beauty and grace in that, you’re the problem you attempt to point out elsewhere.
Present-moment awareness is not a moment of judgment. It is the embracement of something so spectacular minstrels sing from the heavens to usher it in. If you’re busy judging, condemning, etc., you miss the music, and it is sweet. Oh, so very sweet.
Let the music of infinity fill you instead of grumbling it into the noise of the unreal. Life is precious – all of it. Don’t miss it for anything, especially your judgments.

“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used to create them,” Einstein said, but any thinking, coupled with the interpretive mind, which, by the way, is all thinking, is the same thinking that creates ALL problems. In other words, “thinking” will never solve a problem. What to do?
Listen to your heartbeat, each breath, the blood coursing through your veins, savor the myriad scents carried by the breeze without identifying them, love without criteria. “What to do” is right there in a whisper so loud it shakes the earth. Thinking’s purest form is when it isn’t thinking at all. Did you feel the earth move? You must not be thinking!

You were not born to “be” anything other than what you are without the noise of thinking, believing, and hoping you will be something else. Do you see? We are repeatedly told we can be anything we want to be, which is not true. What you wish to be is a figment of your imagination, conjecture, and wishful thinking. That is, a product of your mind that has never experienced “what you are” in the midst of “what is.”
Know thyself,” e.g., “what YOU are,” before embarking on an endless journey to something else, e.g., something unreal, and remember if you can think it, wish it, hope it, believe it, that’s not it. YOU, as is, right now, are the creative center of the universe. You don’t have to think about what that means. Just accept that nothing in all the heavens and Earth exists without YOU.

Wanting keeps the futility of “what isn’t” alive and “what is” from being experienced. Until what you want only looks like “what is” here and now, you will forever be hooked to the dream of non-reality coupled with your mind’s puny attempts to alter it.
What you want is “what is.” It may not match your mind’s idea of how it should be, but wanting something “other” will not make “what is” go away, nor will it alter present moment mystery and splendor. Don’t “want” for anything; the transformation you experience is that you have everything. You already have everything, but only when you forgo all thoughts that tell you otherwise.
