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.

Eternity is free of any time whatsoever. That is, counting backward or forward can only be experienced as “make-believe,” and either direction takes you from the “now’ where “all that is” exists in infinite splendor. Concentrating your focus on anything separates you from everything.
Your eyes see all they see except themselves in the act of seeing – even in a mirror, they see only a reflection. The all-seeing eye has no focus and no vision. All that is comes from it, and it is beheld only as the created, the infinite. In other words, YOU are the Creator, not the lowly human wishing or hoping for something else. Don’t try wrapping your head around anything. Stare into the abyss and know it’s YOU.

“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!

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!

Listening to anyone, any institutional information source, leaders, philosophers, gurus, etc., other than your inner silence is the most egoic fuel source you will ever draw from. A steady diet of it bolsters the mind but cripples the heart. It is high-octane nonsense, and the price you pay is far too much!
Nothing in this life experience is important, even less so if it costs you kindness, joy, and love for everyone and everything. You will always travel farther, more comfortably, and with greater peace if your gas-guzzling mind runs on empty.

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.

Mystery explodes into awareness but only in the presence of the unexplained. A calm and expansion of view occurs when, with eyes wide open and thoughts at rest, all you see is unperceived by your mind. In other words, awareness directly correlates to the unknown and the unknowable but is completely lost to the “known.”
Your words, thoughts, and descriptions blind you; Awareness is not blind. Let “mystery” be without noisy speculation; awareness will silence all inquiries. The unknowable is the real “beautiful life!”

“It is good.” Encompassing words uttered at the moment of creation, your creation, unfettered by any division whatsoever. Nothing exists without YOU; only when you divide against yourself does good become something else. Something unreal.
The heart of all that is doesn’t beat within your chest. It is YOU quietly humming a rhythm and eternity dancing to the subtle beat of “it is good.” Give gratitude and thanks for being included in life’s (YOUR) most fantastic song.
