We need to be inquisitive about the unanswerable question of what happens next, this creating a state of nowness. In that ambiguous moment is our own wisdom mind, in that uncertainty of everyday chaos.
The ancients say the world is a dream from which there is no escaping. They hold the outer reality as unreal, but there is an inner reality too. We have eyes to see, but we also have a voice to refute the existential delusion.
Interfering with nature is to seek control; seeking control creates distress. Creating distress produces exhaustion, this negates life and its longevity. Let things come and go without desire, without expecting results, then you will not be disappointed and your spirit will not grow old.
Having the courage to face things exactly as they are without illusions, you will be able to recognize the path to success. This recognition should be followed by resolute and preserving action, this way you will be able to make the necessary decision to surmount any obstacles in your path.
Quote: The best portion of a good man’s life is his little nameless, unencumbered acts of kindness and of love. Wordsworth
