Empty, clear, quiet...
Empty, clear, quiet...
And then sometimes I keep letting go of thoughts
...letting go of thoughts...letting go of thoughts (2x echo)
Until there is just awareness
Resting in that you lose the world. And we've talked about the fire which fires purify and which fires burn. At different moments one fire that would burn at one moment later will purify. Depends on how ego involved or how invested you are in the particular phenomеnon that's arising
But I experiencе my life as a dance of balancing, of cultivating the qualities of spaciousness, of equanimity, of peace, of happiness
But I noticed that there were certain stages in my development, and they're still going on. And it's left over and away from my renunciement", where I haven't yet fully re-entered into the passions of life. Because I'm afraid of them. Because I'm afraid they will captivate my consciousness and take me away from my balance too much
And I realize you shouldn't be afraid of anything. I agree. But I am afraid
And what I see myself doing, that's one of those fires. I see myself getting closer and closer to the edge of my fear of coming back into some passionate joy about something in the world, something I would have been afraid to do for fear of losing my quiet spaciousness and realizing that now my quiet spaciousness is still present
That it's still empty, clear, quiet
🎶
Empty. Clear. Quiet
...Keep letting go of thoughts...
...letting go of thoughts...letting go of thoughts (2x echo)
...letting go of thoughts... (ending in a an increasingly glitchy robotic voice)
🎶
I see myself getting closer and closer to the edge of my fear
I see myself getting closer and closer to the edge of my fear. Empty, clear, quiet
🎶
All the monsters to be created on your planet have already been unleashed. So fear will have no new faces. Fear has emptied out its bag of tricks. Nuclear destruction, genocide, cancer, AIDS, torture
And still there is the human heart that seeks to see love
🎶
And still there is the human heart that seeks to see love
When you are experiencing fear, you are caught in your separateness
When you are experiencing love, you are caught in your unity with all things. You are caught in your unity with all things
The verb "love" is a vehicle of permeating the boundaries and when you experience that opening of the boundaries, you feel the quality of love, which means a flow of energy or merging with the universe around you
And that one is obviously the antidote for fear: it's going to the place behind your own separateness
