“Reality” is the past dictating the present.

Change that.

Instead , be in the here and now.

I only exist because you exist too.

This is true for all living beings.

Suffering = Living
Living ≠ Suffering

Compassion = loving to live.
Greed = living to suffer.

As it currently stands, we are parasites with a consciousness who chose to be a parasite.

Be a gardener, not a parasite.

Coexistence and interdependency.

All living beings depend on this.

Why are you acting as if you were independent?

Life isn’t possible without death. Look around, every living being exists because of death.

Every living being that ever existed is all around you- keeping you alive.

Protect what gives you life.

Even the mightiest of all humans was once a small fertilized egg.

Happiness is contagious. Try helping someone from the heart, because you can - it warms the heart for a reason.

This feeling is repeatable on forever-mode.

Three mental poisons: greed, hate, delusions.

Racism is based on all three.

Fascism is based on all three.

Colonialism is based on all three.

Dualism is based on all three.

Time to reflect.

All afflictions are reactions, but not all reactions are an affliction.

Choose compassion.

Truth comes, when you realize that you possess a lot of things you didn’t needed to live a happy and healthy life, but you have them, because you were told you needed them.

Step away from delusion by reflecting on your own needs vs. wants.

Be the master of your happiness.

If you ever feel overwhelmed- find a quiet spot and ask yourself why you feel that way. Analyze it. Disassemble the reason until you realize that there isn’t a reason for a fight or flight response.

Exhale and take smaller steps.

Greed, hate, and delusions. Three mental poisons that fall like dominoes and trap the owner in a spiral of doom.
Understanding greed, hate, and delusion provides freedom.

Ask yourself the next time if you acted out of greed and then analyze the origin.

Wisdom comes from applying your experiences to your daily life.

That moment when you sit still, without a thought- spacing in the sunlight, feeling pure bliss… that is an experience of you.

Apply yourself to life and learn to love again.

Morning meditation — It’s astonishing how repetitive thoughts are.
‘It’s astonishing how repetitive thoughts are. Sit quietly, and you will start to see it — the same worries, cravings, resentments looping over and over. This is not a failure of meditation; it’s the mind revealing itself.’ Everyday Buddhism

“No matter if we have practiced for many years or have been diligent, clinging to the idea of getting some favorable condition because of our practice or diligence is not following buddhadharma.” —Kosho Uchiyama Roshi

Meditation. Mindfulness. Almost sounds like work, but it’s actually easier than you think…🤓

You can walk, you can sit, you can work, you can cook, you can play an instrument…and you can meditate during all that.
Just be in the here and now. Don’t actively think. Learn living again!
