Go Crazy

The habit of looking for surety pushes us towards insecurity.

We always want to be sure that what we are doing will work.

We are going to receive pay on the first of every month, and your children and parents are going to behave the way you expect them to.

Naive.

It rarely works. It never works.

Yes, your plans, anticipation, and thoughts on how things work are all fantasies.

You might live in the idea of living, but life always has a different plan for you.

As ambition is not the pursuit of humankind.

Living in the present is.

∗ ∗ ∗

We postpone living in the hope that something will happen tomorrow.

But in reality, the present moment itself is a miracle.

We live.

We live while we are sleeping, we live while we walk.

That’s the only reality until it is challenged by death.

What is it that is constant anyway?

Is there anything at all that can called absolute?

Ultimate?

Truth?

Something else than the life itself?

Our quest and struggle in life is not about finding something external, it is an inherent urge to find yourself.

We have been wandering in the abyss of illusion since internity.

Evolution has brought us to a stage where you can recognise your true nature.

The cognition that makes us think, is the greatest deception.

Ironically, it is also a tool to devour itself into nothingness.

∗ ∗ ∗

What is left of us if the mind disappears completely?

Nothing.

We were born to face uncertainty. Like the ships on the harbour are made for the ocean.

We spend most of our lives in the harbour.

Think that someday we will sail.

But the sailing remains another story for another life. We close our eyes for the last time even before living the life.

We never wake from the dream of familiarity and certainty.

It is not natural.

To sit in the office for several hours. To draw buckets of water to the farms.

Penance is not natural.

But we go through all of it only because we don’t want to face the uncertainty.

We are afraid of losing our minds.

But life begins when you lose your mind. Go Crazy!

∗ ∗ ∗

It’s not sanity that will save you from drowning.

But the madness of believing that you can walk the pathless path and sail your ship into the uncertainty.

No compass, GPS signal lost.

Signals that have kept you on a beaten road all your life.

Symbols that have made you kill and bleed many times.

Don’t look at the finger, look where it is pointing towards.

It points towards the unknown.

∗ ∗ ∗

If you know what you can do, you will only do what you can do.

If you don’t know what you can do, you can do anything.

Do anything, anywhere, anyhow you want.

The sky is the limit, universe is your playground.

Meet yourself where even you are not there.

Keep walking towards yourself, until you are out of sight.

Keep looking for yourself until you are nowhere to be found.

As to be lost is to be found. It is when you are not.

When you are not the divine takes over.

∗ ∗ ∗

Give up your quest, and be still where you are.

Let the ego dissolve so that you are brave enough to keep up the control of that car of your life that is going nowhere anyways.

Let your mind be filled with the dynamic expression of the universe.

Let every moment be a surprise.

The greatest gift to yourself is the present moment.

Give up the idea of the past, it will haunt you endlessly.

Give up the idea of the future, it will enslave you endlessly.

Give the idea.

You are not ideal, you are perfectly imperfect.

∗ ∗ ∗

If you want to be sure, be sure of one thing – Life does not have a script.

If you want to be certain be certain of one thing – Life is unfolding in front of your eyes in the present moment, from moment to moment.

Be like a baby opening its eyes for the first time every time it blinks.

Innocent.

Courage is given to you by the nature. Like it protects the flower that blossoms.

You will be filled with zest to honour the urge of creativity.

An urge that is a burning desire of the divine.

Divine who wants to manifest in small things using you as the medium.

Divine that makes little things significant.

The walk, the insects and the touch of the feather.

∗ ∗ ∗

Be witness to the fact that things work in their mysterious way.

Your job is not to interfere with it. Your job is just to be a witness.

A jobless job.

Just be. Here.

Witness the power of the unknown.

Like, will no longer be thrown to you.

You will no longer happen to life, life will happen to you.

Everything you need will be taken care of.

Breath.

Live like there is no tomorrow.

Nothing to keep in the bags, nothing to store in the mind.

Give everything you have in the very moment.

Tomorrow never comes and it never will. Only present is present.

What’s the point of all the hustle to make tomorrow wonderful, if your current moment is screwed up.

What’s the point of pondering upon the past, if nothing of it is an occasion of happiness?

What is the point of collecting all the knowledge in your head, if all it does is burden you?

Drop it. Live.

Like the scared flower in the unknown valley blossom, whether you know it or not.
