Boredom and clarity

On what fundamental basis must decisions be made?
What is the true value of selfless service?

A life which has no major problems need not necessarily be the ideal life.
A bored state of mind is as toxic as a restless state of mind. The mind state oscillates between restlessness (seeking) and boredom (despairing). When gripped by either of these states, clarity is lost.

Clarity of mind is when the mind is free from restlessness and boredom. In the absence of anxiety and despair, the mind is still. A still mind is like a clear mirror that reflects.

A mind and body which is absolutely still is completely relaxed. In the absence of any desire or fear, the mind reaches a state of deep relaxation. This happens when there are no activities or undone tasks that arise in the mind. A still mind like a clean mirror reflects only truth.

Truth is always present, hidden only by perceptions.
