Whatever, Wherever

Averywhere/Anywhere

How much better off people would be if they realized there is nothing special about God and spirituality. It's your birthright to be whole and present with Reality. (Instead of 'Reality' you could substitute 'God', but if the term has distinct meanings that are limiting, it's not a suitable substitution; as the term has to encompass EVERYTHING.)

Here' s an example of how you can 'see' into daily events to discover your true 'Self'...

Imagine you're in a grocery store; waiting in line to check out. What feelings do you notice? What thoughts 'run' through your head? Are you at ease, or dis-ease? Would you rather be someplace else, or are you satisfied just where you are?

This is how we find ourselves. Nothing special.

Pay attention to the thoughts, feelings, urgings, etc. that you notice, NOW. Why do you feel compelled to run away from something; only to get to another place from which you want to run? Why does the moment seem dis-satisfying? Where do you think you can go!? Look at what you can accomplish (realistically, not idealistically, as if you were 'perfect'.) What can you change and what can't you change...and will it really make any difference? By watching Reality (but more specifically, the way YOU see it) unfold you will come to see who you are and what is REAL.

What you discover WILL amaze you, and you will find peace and satisfaction in every moment. You will discover your true Self.

Who in their 'right mind' would relinquish peace for irritation/anger (suffering)? It's obvious that what happens to us isn't unique. No matter what you experience you can always imagine others (or actually know someone) who experience similar things and some could be said to be 'better' or 'worse' off than you are. No one is alone and this is a clue to 'escape' from the judging mind. To judge/label an event as 'GOOD' or 'BAD' can't be completely certain; since either choice presupposes a 'correct' way to decide. There is no way to know which one is correct, and the choice is usually biased by desire, that is, "what do I WANT". When you choose sides you've trapped yourself in a fantasy prison (in your mind). There is no ...

What makes a religious tradition valuable?

. Any particular religious tradition doesn't 'contain' the TRUTH more than another. It's in a tradition's ability to transform a person that makes that tradition valuable. The value or truth in a tradition is subjective, so let go of conviction that causes animosity towards traditions that are different from 'yours'. Matthew
