love and truth



Once you have peace, what more is there?

Peace is here, we just need to remove the obstacles to it, and the obstacles are the things that keep us in the prison of misery.

If you are unhappy, hard as it may seem, it is because you are choosing to be.

I'm not talking about the type of misery that comes from an event such as the loss of a loved one, or the ending of a relationship. I'm talking about the background misery that we are constantly trying to avoid, and to escape from.

The clever tricks we employ to avoid ourselves and our feelings are what we would 'normally' refer to as the 'things' we like to do. Keeping busy is a classic way of avoidance, getting stoned, or drunk, eating too much, and too often, over exercising, keeping fit, etc.

Nothing is wrong with anything, we do what we do.

We have certain 'needs' if we want to keep comfortable, so we keep doing what we do in an ever decreasing circle.

Okay so what?

What is life all about?

A good question.

Do an interesting Asana.

Instead of moaning about everything, get up and do some breathing.

Lighten up yourself.

Move your body.

From nothing comes everything, be prepared to let go of everything you thought you knew............
