Photo credit: kudumomo This moment, you are reading this post and THIS is the most precious moment in your life because YOU ARE ALIVE, this moment is the reality and this moment is the truth.
I believe you are AWARE and you are feeling your PRESENCE. THIS is life. Everything else is just thought and imagination. Thought is not life. You can never understand life through thinking. Thinking and imagination is the root of all evil and sorrow. This is what enlightenment is. You don’t need to go through all meditation and practicing virtue. I’m living it since last 15 years without getting bored or suffering so can you.
You can not suffer if you live moment to moment but if you live in ‘time’, if you live in the ‘past or future’, if you live in your ‘personal story’ then there is no way out from endless suffering. All your wealth, power, success, achievements, love affairs, relationships and marriages are root of your suffering. And the shortest possible way to freedom is to AWAKE… HERE and NOW!
