The unbearable moment

What is it that makes this moment so hard to endure? What is it that makes emptiness/aloneness so freeing, but yet so painful? Knowing deep down that there is absolutely nothing here and the various tasks and relationships of life just games, in which you can get potentially entangled can make life unbearable sometimes. Guess that it is only expectations of there being something else or someone else to feel happy that prevents us from being truly satisfied in the moment. Yet, when life gives you an option and you prefer to reject it, it creates a kind of conflict in the mind.

Knowing that there is nothing to attain, life loses its drive. What then should be the driving force after non duality is seen? It seems at this point that relationships are important to sustain the drive to live.It seems that fear of the future is what makes the emptiness of this moment unbearable. Will I be always alone? Will I have a job? Will my health last? Is the time I spend at work feeling like a waste?
What is it that I seek? What is the root cause of this un-fulfilment?

What is it that I desire to create? What do I wish to share? What are the unresolved issues that need to be addressed? How important is career fulfillment? How do I deep down wish to contribute?

Career is definitely not my top priority. My top priority is that which nurtures and heals. Not that which consumes. What is the source of healing? What is the source of life? Is it outside or inside? Is it sleep? Is it love? Is it service? Is it silence?

Absolute clarity with respect to your only priority is needed. Knowing this alone is enough. When God alone is real, what other priority could exist? The Soul comes always first. The Soul alone matters. In all areas, including career, relationships and service, bring the soul out. This should be the only concern. Everything else can follow.

Knowing the Soul is knowing awareness. Then death is easy.
