What is a Human Being?
The essence of what it means to be human is beautifully complex. Beyond our physical bodies and consciousness, we possess a unique drive to question our own nature. This isn’t about intellect or philosophy but a deep, intrinsic curiosity. It’s not driven by ideas, reason, or expectation, but something untouched by these constructs.

Reality: Imagined or Unknown?
Distinguishing between “imagined” (created by the mind) and “real” (untouched by the mind), the text probes our perceptions and the nature of questioning. It suggests that even our deepest inquiries might stem from imagination. The essence of the challenge is recognizing questions unformed by the mind, implying they exist within the realm of the unknown.

Self-Inquiry
Thought—incessantly it seeks to think, yet seldom does it delve into its own true nature. It generates and modifies material using its own hues and tools, but why is it so infrequent in questioning? The challenge is not in the guise of thought, but in seeking its essence, its origin. We strive to understand words,…

The Unfolding Question
Embrace a state of questioning, an ‘attention to the unknown.’ Begin your journey with the humbling acknowledgement that you truly do not know. Surrender to this state of wonder.

Blurring Boundaries
We often distinguish between the external (outside our body) and internal (within our mind). But for example, where does physical health lie? This blurs the boundary. When we view our body as an image, the distinction becomes murkier. Could the internal and external be opposites, or even the same? If fleeting thoughts are external, what…

Breaking Chains
In life, the genuine urgency is the pursuit of true freedom – a life unchained from the bonds of thought.

AI’s True Threat
The rising potential of artificial creativity sparks concern, as AI could potentially outperform humans in emotional expression.

Interference of Self
Free creative flow reflects life as art and art as life itself. A vital, intrinsic expression of creativity, its essence often eludes verbal encapsulation. Ironically, the concept of ‘free creative flow’ may inhibit its full experience, nudging us towards recognizing it as more than mere words or theories; it is life itself, in its most…

Beneath Silence
Understanding and aligning with our will is essential to finding peace. However, peace isn’t achieved by resisting or avoiding conflict. It comes from accepting the current state of being. It’s vital to realize that peace and conflict cannot coexist – when one is present, the other is absent. Our desires determine the path we tread;…

Your Will, Your Peace

The Unknowable Will
What does it mean to have a will? Our ‘will’ is usually tied to desires and outcomes, but does the will really exist only in relation to these things? Could the essence of our will be something more inherent and fundamental? Is our existence, in fact, an expression of a will that does not seek…

The Intersection of Clarity and Memory
Is it possible that the very act of ceaseless, uncontrolled questioning represents the essence of clarity? And if we were to encapsulate our comprehensive understanding, would it manifest as a question or knowledge? This inquiry becomes particularly relevant when considering the powerful influence of our past memories. Despite their ability to shape present actions, they…

Signal Clarity in the Emptiness
This blog post delves into the elusive concept of the mind, a space teeming with thoughts, feelings, and ideas.

Into the Creative Abyss
“Into the Creative Abyss” explores the profound nature of questioning, not as a simple quest for answers, but as an embrace of an ever-unfolding state of unknowing.
