    Why do I meditate? Why do I do anything? To see what happens… yet nothing has to happen nor does anything have to be done.

    No escape

    When one is not looking for any escape at all, but finds oneself participating in whatever thoughts, feelings, perceptions, etc. make up the constituents of THIS very moment, without any hope that things will get ‘better,’ including that one will ‘eventually’ be ‘enlightened,’ then one is IN the moment, and it is only IN the moment that anything true, anything real, anything that is not escapism and fantasy, will be found.
    So whereas most teachings point elsewhere, point to an improved condition that you will attain by following the teaching, I point only to what you are right now in this moment. The one who is reading these words is IT, and there is no other.
