We are confused when we focus on the world.
We believe in the world to be REAL only to learn that
the world is UNRELIABLE.
Everything changes all the time.
Everywhere change occurs.
There is birth, aging, sickness & death.
We suffer from the confusion in suffering.
What is the cause of our suffering?
We go after the unreliable things.
Thinking we will be satisfied by the unreliable things.
We fail to still the mind.
We believe the mind will save us.
We identify ourselves as a ‘somebody.’
We get absorbed in the changing waves in the mind.
We identify ourselves with our thoughts.
We benefit when we contemplate.
We are better off when we do not identify ourselves
as the thoughts in the mind.
We benefit from knowing the right knowledge.
Direct sense perception of the world.
We know everything changes.
When we realize we are the floating child born into a changing world we may realize we are free from the suffering that fills the mind & body.
Our work is to go beyond the mind & body… It is up to each one of us to find the Way of endless joy in awareness. Letting go of the body & mind is essential.
Don’t Give Up. Keep Going.
Study yourself in such a way that you forget yourself. When you know who you are practice occurs.
