changing your environment.
Whether at home or in the forest.
If you can do it in the forest,
Why not in the home?
Therefore, why change the environment?
It feels somehow safer to keep pretending to be someone small instead of being no one and everything.

I don’t think in terms of having experiences anymore. Things just happen. Rain is dripping softly. The heart is beating. There is breathing, in-out-in-out-in-out. There is quiet listening, openness…emptiness…nothing…Enlightenment? How lethal it is to attach a label. Then you become somebody. At the moment of labeling, aliveness freezes into a concept. ‘My enlightenment experience!’ To be alive, fully alive, means flowing without hindrance—a vulnerable flow of aliveness with no resistance… Without needing to think about ‘myself’—what I am, what I will be. Our experience mongering is a form of resistance in time.

Of all the pitfalls in our paths and the tremendous delays and wanderings off the track I want to say that they are not what they seem to be. I want to say that all that seem like fantastic mistakes are not mistakes, all that seem like error is not error; and it all has to be done. That which seems like a false step is simply the next step.

When I was a kid I saved myself
When I grew up I solved myself
Now I’m older and wiser I know I did neither.

There’s what you should do, what you shouldn’t do and what you’re going to do anyway.
