be here

Who is on the path to enlightenment?

When is it expected to take place?

It can only be, and it can only be now.

Not when and not by whom.

mind makes body

The mind is nothing without memory. Memories though are imperfect. The mind relies on the imperfect and unreal to formulate a now to which it likes or dislikes.

The mind in this way forms a body, a world and a person!

It forms others. We all share this mind-dream of a world people-ing when in truth this manifestation is built from false memories of past and future. This now is an idea.

Making Jupiter spin

Right now you are making Jupiter spin, just as you are running fast over a desert in the body of an animal and just as you are making your hair grow on that head there.

Yet your concern is of how to be happy tomorrow. When now is so magical.

Now

There are only 3 things that spoil perfection:

Memories,

Plans

Concepts

Life in balance

Your life like a pair of scales,

are you too much in the past or the future?

Which way do they lean?

Too much invested in the future, too much thought for the past?

Sit here on the balance-point, or choose the center of the wheel.

That is here now and unchanging.

present

No concept of now is truly now.

Present is absent of the idea.

 

Certainly time to relax

You know for sure the sun will rise sometime after it sets.

If this did not happen nothing would matter anyway so you accept this so solidly that you never question it.

You know for sure that it will rain in the future. You are so certain that your shoe will fit that you thrust it on your foot and go about your day without measuring it first.

I will tell you for sure also that good will come. Can you accept that in the same way?

Accept with no concern that life will work out, dedicate your thoughts only to inner peace now.

One unit of delusion

Now is it, all else is an idea away.

A minute ago, yesterday, the beginning of time - Tomorrow, next week, your death:

Are all - An IDEA away. No more no less.

Fake o'clock

Now only exists as an idea because you already have the ideas of past and future.

Do anything in the past or the future and you can prove them real.

If you can not do anything in the past or the future they are false, just ideas.

So if now is based on things that are false then now is also false, an idea.

Who experiences now? Who experiences this false idea?

Can't be real either! So what is?

Only this.
