And then, somebody who can unlock that door, and allow dreams, feelings, waiting of lifetimes, to become real. Something that I can understand, something that I can feel, something that I can fulfill my life with. And not just a concept, not just an idea, but something real, something simple.

For us, if we can understand what that opportunity is; if we can understand what that means. And with honor, approach - with freedom, with that desire to be free.

Maybe in this life, it is easy to allow oneself to be tormented. And not only is it easy to allow oneself to be tormented, to be tortured, but to actually get used to it. And not only is it easy to get used to it, but actually begin accepting it as a fact of life. So many people, when things don't go right: "that's life". |
And I always have to tell people, that's not true, that's not life.
|
And from that deepest feeling to awaken and accept THAT reality, not the reality of the torture and the pain and the suffering. Because the gentleness of this creation does not attest to it. The fragrance of a flower, the hues of a sunrise, the twinkle of a star, the light of the moon, the beauty of the blue of the sky... do not attest - are not the symbols of pain and suffering. |

Our wisdom, I am sorry to say - is not in memorizing Encyclopedia Britannica, but our wisdom is to learn of that simplicity in this life. This knowledge, this realm of knowledge, this world of knowledge and the master, this is the world that will be with you until your last breath. Think about it. |
Nothing
else, nothing else you know will do you any good. And what you know of
that simplicity, of that beauty, of that quietness, of that trust, will
not only help you every single day of your life, every moment of your
life - but even in the very last moment of this life. |
Because it's true. It's real, that's what reality is. Not perceived reality that changes from one day to the next, that's not reality. That's not the truth. In this moment, to acknowledge that, that's what I can do - I can fill myself; I can fill myself with that perfection.
|
And that, is achieving the goal of a lifetime. |
