On fear

The defining characteristic of my personality is a fear of the future. This personality is terrified of what will happen in the future. It does not allow him to be in the present. Terrified by imagination. The only cure is to take root in the present moment. Indulging in imagination only leads to increase in fear. The mere possibility of some calamity is enough to engender fear.

Love of God

The love of God is the supreme delight of existence. No other pleasure can provide the complete satisfaction and liberation from fear provided by the love of God. The purpose of existence is the love of God. The love of God is the supreme liberation from all sorrow and the liberation from all bondage. To love God is to be aware of awareness. Nothing else is needed.

May you live a blessed life.

Desire the trickster

Desire is the nature's biggest fraud. It tricks you into believing that fulfilling it will permanently end the emptiness you feel within. However, this is a lie and it only provides a temporary reprieve. And leaves you with a barrage of mental impressions in the aftermath.

Hence, we just simply stop and look within. The only way out.

Immortality

Immortality. What exactly is immortality? Is it an endless number of years in time? What is time for an immortal? Can the mortal mind ever grasp the concept of immortality? The immortal is not something that the mortal mind can fathom, just like infinity. For that which is truly immortal, cannot take birth. And activities and pursuits and knowledge and boredom lose all meaning in the face of immortality.

The only skill

There is only one skill that is really needed to have a trouble free life. And that is to learn to control the mind. An uncontrolled mind is the root of all trouble and suffering. A controlled mind is the bestower of bliss and peace, no matter the circumstances.

So, learn only to slow down the mind and all auspiciousness is yours. This is true power.

The only investment

The only crucial practice in life is to stay aware of awareness. This is truly the only investment that is of any value. All else is easily lost. The only discipline required is to place attention on awareness. To use every possible moment for this practice alone. Then God is all and no other is.
