Subverting man, The Screwtape Letters...trailing clouds of wormwood

Thousands of sources, millions, billions...

The point is not to get out
or get set for getting out

The point
is being fully present
Here and Now
within the self we are.

But until we are ready for even this basic truth
10,000 others catch our eye and our desire and fill our need
and all these words are just words.
And that is absolutely fine.

Not much complicated about it
except the effort required to attain it
and THAT effort
IS the work
EACH of us ALONE must do.
Ironic because ultimately
alone is the last thing we are
and a further discovery we open to.

Words, so many words on this thread that purports to be about a fresh perspective on the almighty
we know so much already,
our knowledge increases
and what of wisdom...

Action is better.

When it comes to self awareness beyond the everyday physical, mental and emotional it boils down to checking up and doing our work, period.
As we do we boil down
like maple sap to syrup
becoming the sweetness sought for but so often-
as your reading points out-
overlooked. See my Joseph Campbell quote on participation for more insight.
Are we spiritual maschists at heart?
We do love our dichotomies and drama
Until we become Alchemists of the human heart

Life and our experiences are our feedback.
Pretty simple really.
Profound
once
we
really
get it.
Words will NEVER contain the essence of this truth though, nor will thought.

So it goes.

It is within and we search everywhere but within
until we start to see.

Regards
