it feels good to feel good, and it feels bad to feel bad. but what remains constant in both pleasure and pain? there is one thing that is unchangeable in this life, and that - and only that - is what we are. this essential nature or ground of being is so simple and silent, our content-geared minds simply skip over it. but when awareness is centered on it, the impact on our consciousness is immeasurable. it's like coming home after a long hard night in the freezing, alienating cold, but then indescribably more settling.

suffering & liberation
what comes from resisting our nature is the inescapable suffering that results when something that is what it is, resists what it is.
what comes from ceasing to resist our nature is the absolute freedom that's revealed when something that is what it is, knows and loves what it is.
