Don\u2019t believe WHAT I say.<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
\n
And most certainly don\u2019t take it literally.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I am not into convincing anybody, not into intellectual dominance or conceptual weight or installing any specific method.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It\u2019s nothing like that.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
There\u2019s a bigger picture I want you to feel.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
That\u2019s all.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The Big Picture.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The (almost too) subtle, peaceful energy that is always there and just seems so utterly unsexy when you talk about it.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The unchanging space that we are before the ever changing ideas about who we are.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The unexplainable Allness that inspires this so-called me to write these words.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I don\u2019t have the answers to your life\u2019s questions, and I don\u2019t even want to.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
You figure out that shit for yourself.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
But I know for sure that all MY answers came from this magical, modest, unwavering stillness.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It\u2019s within, dummy!<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
You know: the place I always ramble about.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The thing that is not a thing and you can only point to, kind of.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
THAT\u2019S what I want you to experience.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The gentle, exhilarating thingness.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Over and over<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
and over<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
again.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
