The essence of the world is felt by all. We share the same struggles, just on different physical metrics. Fear blinds us to reality. In a world built on ego, how does one recognize what they truly want when they have only been taught to understand what the system wants? How do we become curious about something we most of the time do not know is there?
Answers are not difficult to find, they appear the moment the right question is asked. But questions confront us. They remind us that we are both knowledgeable and ignorant, yet we are taught to choose only one label. To be both is seen as inconsistent, but the truth is, we already are. Where we stand as a collective is simply a reflection of our species’ cycler stage of evolution.
The sun does not shine on the moon so the moon can shine back at the sun. The sun shines on the moon so the moon can sustain life on Earth. Its orbit gives purpose to the sun, just as our existence is woven into each other’s. The success of one is the success of all, yet only the individual knows if they are experiencing true success.
To ask questions is to surrender to impermanence, to step into change. Something we are conditioned to see as irresponsible. We believe we can control the world, yet the only thing we can choose is developing awareness to see how we want to engage with the world. And that, above all, is what challenges the ego. Only when a soul is ready will it recognize it is part of the world, and to fight it is to fight itself.
