Everything is included, nothing left out, yes, but everything just arises, changes and goes. Only the open, empty, infinite now never comes, never changes, never goes. This, awareness here/ now, that is always ever present, that allows for everything, is it, is literally where all the action always is.
The Inner Light is beyond praise and blame; like space it knows no boundaries, yet it is even here, within us, ever retaining its serenity and fullness. It is only when you hunt for it that you lose it; you cannot take hold of it, but equally you cannot get rid of it, and while you can do neither, it goes on its own way.

If we relinquish our small, narrow, blinkered self we discover our innate, open infinite being. We find a boundless capacity for everything.

Want just breeds more want. There is no end to wanting. Can we see that when all our wants are fulfilled there are just more piling up waiting to be quenched. We never arrive.

Can we remain as we are without constantly trying to change by wanting or resisting?
Change is inevitable despite what we may desire or try to deny.
