“I have a right to; fill in the blank.” Your statement of rights is a statement of your imprisonment. A declaration of beliefs, desires, and expectations of something “out there” that you have determined needs to be given to you and respected by the giver is not freedom. Bound and gagged, you are free if you are without attachment to anything that is given out of respect for your so-called rights. Your freedom lies in the release of anything you believe you have a right to.

One of the many aspects of present-moment awareness is that it challenges all the norms you are conditioned to accept. Most will argue and resist those challenges, but the more aware you are, the more apt you will see your possession by the unreal. Nothing holds you except those things you hold. Let them go, and what you think you have “rights” to give way to what is, and that will set you free.

You possess no thought, dream, hope, or belief that exceeds the moment in which you presently live, nor does any collective movement to which you subscribe, no matter how noble and righteous you believe it to be. “All that is” only has reality in YOU, and any “thought” of the real just isn’t real. You are the creative center of the universe, but it is not your thoughts or mind that creates. The only way to “know” the Creator, e.g., YOU, is to embrace your creations, and that is literally everything. Love it all or miss it all. It’s not a choice; it just is.

You stand on the precipice of beauty and folly. You recognize one and live the other. That is, you don’t choose between them, as one encompasses the other, and the other is the smile you wear while breathing life in all its nuance and mystery. Which is recognition, and which is beauty? Don’t overthink it; YOU already know.

“I choose to surround myself with like-minded people who, like me, generally believe as I do, love and accept me as I am, and positively lift me. Comfortable and safe in my world that avoids contrariness, I have few, if any, challenges to my ego or self-esteem. After all, it’s what new age spirituality suggests I do. However, in so choosing, I fully accept that I am missing out on the more significant part of human life and living: a rich and diverse world, full of myriad philosophies, tastes, beliefs, lifestyles, cultures, art, and colors, etc., etc., etc.” Do you see?
Choosing is exclusion, denial, and blindness, while life and living are a package deal. They cannot be what you want them to be because what you want is your own prison cell. “Tear down these walls!” You will be stunned, enriched, and enlivened by what and who is on the other side!

The answer to “knowing’s” great quest is “not knowing.” That is, “nothing” is the response of the universe to everything. Without YOU, there is no “everything.” Let “nothing” be on your mind today, and “knowing” quietly and spectacularly unfolds.

The universe isn’t this great big thing labeled consciousness trying to know itself. That is something humans make up because they think they have greater awareness than all other forms, and that makes consciousness little more than human arrogance, which is a quality you should not aspire to possess. The answer to everything lies not in the cumulative intelligence gathered by human endeavor, and so-called raised consciousness, but in the humble acceptance that everything works gracefully, unbeknownst to you or anyone else, and while “not knowing” YOU are the center of it. Stillness is awareness, and Gods (YOU) know this.

Nothing exposes ego like another ego. “I am right, and you are wrong” is the battleground for ego, and it is always a battle. Even if placation is used to lower tension, e.g., “we’ll just have to agree to disagree.” If you find yourself in that field, you’ve been exposed. Not to worry, however, we’ve all been exposed! There is no right, and there is no wrong except the side that you happen to be on, in which case you are wrong. Ego’s checkpoints are: Are you speaking or gesturing? Are you thinking, imagining, or dreaming? Are you engaged in all other forms of communication, including writing? All of these are fraught with ego.

I know, I know, I’m in trouble, but you don’t have to be. Checking your ego regularly avoids many unnecessary and silly battles.

Asking the questions “who am I?; where did I come from?; where am I going?; etc.,” will never get you to an answer but will get you started in an episode of “Lost” consisting of a maze of mind-made rhetoric, games, ritual, competitions, and nonsense. The questions themselves invite speculation, and if the mind of man is anything at all, it would have to be the ability to make up bizarre and fantastical stories. Who are you? No description. Where did you come from? No one knows, and no one will ever know. You’re here now, and that’s amazing. Where are you going? Amidst the beauty, splendor, and absolute mystery you can and should experience now, why would you even care?

You’ve got a life, so live it. You’re not going to make up anything more incredible, and you are, after all, the star of whatever is showing.

Your existence is not an evolutionary process, e.g., a coming from or going to. It is an involvement. That is, whatever is right now has everything to do with your participation in the whole of creation. Do you see? YOU, not from a place of evolutionary progress or regress, exist here now with your creation. Your involvement with it is an expression of your love for it. Create life and live it! There’s no better formula for YOU being you.

Nothing happens “to” you. This is so hard to “get” in everyday life, as we are all taught to look outward for reasons and causes. The reality is that all that happens, every interaction with who or whatever, is because of you and only you. It is your experience, and that is all any of us can expect in life. Own it, and life is yours fully and completely; fight it, resist it, blame it on others, and you will live conflicted, confused, and with a finger pointing toward everything and anyone but the real cause, e.g., you.
It’s difficult to smile when life is hard, but it is worse when smiles are replaced with judgments that only stand up in your failure to recognize that YOU are the creative center of the universe; the Maker of all that is and all that is” is in your hands. Be grateful that within YOU is love significant enough to create something so incredible.
