We need to challenge the elements of life. By doing this you will develop a practice that gives you inspiration and an uplifted feeling. Life then becomes a process of growing up, and you becoming more and more fearless. This way life becomes a sense of play.
It takes insight to be your own disciplinarian, giving thanks for our good fortune and knowing there is no divine retribution for wickedness. Instead, act with a conscience and lead others without taking advantage of them or manipulating them.
Any fragment of the mind, apart from heart, spirit, human community and the natural law of the universe, is going against your own true nature. We sometimes confuse knowledge with knowing. Forget the 10,000 things and then you will heal.
Knowledge that is vitalizing comes from discussing and practicing applications with friends about the truths of life. This way learning becomes many sided and takes on a cheerful lightness, rather than self-taught which is more one sided.
Quote: The focus of our awareness becomes the reality of our world.
