What is really going on?

Some people tell you they sense time, as they understand it, is accelerating.  They offer their perspectives and interpretations.  They offer you opinions on world events.  They use words to judge and describe and exert effort to pin things down.  What do you see?  What is really going on in the world?  How do you sense things within yourself?  Why the impulse to question?  What happens as the thoughts cease?

What you choose to believe is what you believe.  What you choose to have faith in is based on your focus and a lingering spark of doubt that things may not be going well. The mind tells you reality is one thing while the heart and soul whisper another.  What about the Middle Way? Sense that place where contemplation stops. Be that now.

To ask what is going on is to quietly assume your own ignorance or lack of understanding.  Notice what happens as you shift from a restless state of mind to a serene state of being.  You see that fear and doubt underlie beliefs and faith.  You shift attention into knowing and trusting all is well.  Nothing happens.  Nothing fazes you.

"The best part of beauty is that which no picture can express." -Francis Bacon

Dito!

'I Am that place where contemplation stops.'

An individual invents what is going on. We create the laws of the universe as one rides the waves of experience. Definitions are set into place and are just as easily removed to change the happenings in the world around us. Nothing is invented, because it all already exists. Whatever one can imagine is real in some reality. From a position of Here and Now, we move to other positions of Here and Now. It is an ongoing choice. The world then morphs and shifts around us, which is always the center of the universe, as in a dream, to accommodate the image or imaginings we have taken to heart.

Salomão, some people focus on working things out that they believe are problems. One perspective sees and is perfection. Nothing remains.

Bern, many people are drawn to a path of spirituality when the mind cannot figure out what is going on in its terms. The search for truth leads many people into the mind. The ultimate reality or truth has no path. As you let go of all you are, as you allow release from self-created illusion, you allow what remains to reveal itself.
