Lost


Lost in time
time repeating itself
day after day
hour after hour
forever lingering in the known
in the safe
the predictable.
Forever lost in the longing.
Lingering in the state of desire.
Unable to move on
looking for something to achieve
looking for something to have
so it can be lost and 
sought after again
eternal game of reactions
perpetual fear of loss
permanent state of unconsciousness

Change everything

Change everything without changing anything- simply drop the meanings and attachments. Dissolve the ego. And listen for instructions. Accept that this body is just a vessel and transcend personal likes and dislikes.
Bring heaven on earth...
It is all just terribly anti climactic.
The ego strives for a climax, an achievement a victory over something.
The soul just exists in the moment. It doesn't require anything.

Step out

We need to stop fixing all the problems we have created.
We need to stop looking for ways to fill the voids we have dug.
It's all a a cause and effect game that keeps us rolling in the wheel of samsara.
We need to step out.
Simply quit and let the system we have created destroy itself so we can build this world anew.
Let go of the attachments, good or bad, let go of the idea that we can somehow right all the wrong we have done.
The way we are fixing one mess, we are creating another.
Let go
Step out
Go beyond, where you never thought you would venture.
Beyond action and reaction, beyond good and bad, beyond right and wrong.
Further than the mind can go, where you are one with existence

Alone

If you think you are not loved
If you feel unsupported and alone
Look within
Examine your own behavior
Most likely you are closed off
You are blocking your own joy and bliss
Because the universe is constantly showering you in love and light,
Blessing at every step
And supporting you in every breath
Soften, allow yourself to open up and feel the warmth of Love all around you.

Safe space


Why are  we so afraid of our own abilities?
Why do we shy away from our own strength?

We have so much power yet we are so afraid of it.
We label it, judge it and shut it down!
Instead of retreating into our dark places, we should bring those dark places out.
The space, that safe space that we hide in when we feel down, when we feel threatened is not something to be afraid or ashamed of.
It's something to be honored and cherished.

Peace

We all strive for comfort and peace yet the only peace we can ever hope to find is in the stillness of the mind.
Nothing physical, nothing of value in this tangible plane of existence can offer any comfort or sistainable peace. It all keeps slithering through our fingers, impossible to hold on to.
So if we ever wish to find some peace and comfort and keep looking outside ourselves it will remain eternally unatainable.
The only comfort and peace we can find is in our hearts. Not in attaining something outside of ourselves but becoming comforted by all that we already are, accepting that we don't need another to feel love, finding solace in our own being.
The only peace we ever wish to find comes not from another, not from acieving and attaining but from the space inside.
The space that we hide from the world and from ourselves.
The "dark place" where our tears and pain come from.
The same place where our compassion and joy come from.
The stillness.
The void, if you will.
The place we call home and go searching around for.
We already have everything that we need.
We already are everything that we can become.
We even have that peace we are so desperately searching for.
We have simply forgotten.
Drop the pretenses and ego games and remember.

Layers

We've gotten used to covering the truth.
Layer upon layer of distraction, of the unnecessary just so we don't dig deeper and discover the shining light inside.
We don't care to even clean up or shape up the old layers, just add another when that one fails.
They are all bound to fail.
Because they have no purpose.
The only purpose being to hide who we truly are.
Why are we so afraid of our own strength, of our own abilities?
Why do we try so hard to cover the bright light that we are?
Each time we put a new skin, a new face, a new act we dim that blazing fire even more.
For what purpose?
Shed the skins and break through the layers, tumble the structures we have build to cover the original face.
Break free from the prison of our own ideas.
The prison we have built for ourselves.
For each new layer we add takes us further away from the bliss of our purpose, or our joy.
Shed them, drop them, remember who we are.
