When we feel most stuck, even then we are never separated from the awakened state. When our neurosis feels far more basic than our wisdom, it is there for us. Even ordinary people like us can find this openness of our heart, it is our true natural and condition.
The good of today is based on the good of yesterday. That is why we should be constantly attentive to our actions. We should concentrate on endeavors that are important to us. This constant attention to our actions brings meaning to our lives.
We are told to be “good” in the framework of an inhuman world. The ancients tell us to transcend every false premise of our culture and to be reborn in the form of our essential humanity, which needs no tests of performance, wealth, achievement or goodness to validate itself.
Adornment is an external ornamentation. It is more important to enhance the inner essence and thereby improve our inner vitality, warmth, and life balance. We see real beauty when there is vitality, warmth, balance and order showing through a creature or a creation.
