When we feel it's normal,
We accept it is what it is.
But is it really what it is?
To look at ourselves,
Honestly,
Objectively,
We have to be alone.
Being alone does not mean that nobody is around you,
But mentally,
One is alone.
The word alone means all one.
When the mind is very egocentric,
The ego creates all kinds of nonsense,
Opinions,
Conclusions,
Pre-assumptions.
When the mind is trapped in those nonsense,
The mind cannot touch upon the essence of life.
When the mind is trapped in all those nonsense,
The mind is never alone.
The mind is always being influenced by those stuff.
The ideas,
The ideology,
The opinion,
The conclusion all belong to the past.
A mind which is being influenced by those is also living in the past.
Such a mind is not alone.
A mind that is alone is free from any inferences.
So the mind can really inquire by a simple look,
Not through the conclusions,
Pre-assumptions,
Views,
Ideas.
So that's why we need to meditate to empathy the thoughts,
Verse,
Images,
Symbols,
To really look.
Look through nothing,
Just look.
By a simple look,
One begins to understand why the life has become so complicated.
By such a simple look,
One begins to find out how to live a simple life.
What when really lasts?
