Simple living

What needs to be understood in order to calmly navigate life?

- Don't seek refuge in the mind, but in the body. The body is alive. Aliveness is the very essence of the body. The aliveness of the body generates the mind and the self.

Realize that the aliveness is fundamental. Not the mind or the self. The mind generates anxiety, fear and paranoia. The body enjoys the bliss of simply being alive.

The more you are able to be with the body and its simple joy of being, the less you are impacted by the troubles and worries of the mind.

The mind creates misery. The mind creates its own entanglements. The mind creates problems. The mind creates complexity.

The body does not create anything and only experiences the sensation of being alive without any obstructions.
