Over the holiday break I played a board game with my friends. I effortlessly moved through all the game steps. Each time I threw the dice I got exactly what I needed. My friend wanted to win. He got frustrated that he was losing, no matter how hard he had tried.

 

“How do you do it?” he asked me half-way through the game seeing me effortlessly winning.

 

“It’s you. You are doing it.” I responded calmly.

 

“Be aware of your state; your energy is scattered. You are not conscious. You are in the mind. You want to win so badly. You are experiencing what you don’t want. You can’t want to win. The moment you want to win, you’ve already lost.”

 

A few days ago, we played again. Before we started, I told him:

 

“Practice what I told you. Be conscious. Remember, the moment you want to win, you’ve already lost.”

 

He gazed at me. I immediately noticed how he shifted from the mind into the being. His whole body relaxed. I knew he’d win this time.

 

He did.

 

But most importantly, he enjoyed the experience of playing the game!

 

Life works the same way.

 

No matter how much you want something, no matter how much effort and action you apply to achieve it, you are not getting what you truly want. You are facing more and more challenges. You are reacting to what is happening, trying to figure out new plans and strategies. You are only entangling yourself more in the results of your actions filled with the energy of fear, and yearning.

 

Life is not easy for you. It’s a hassle, something that you need to go through, to conquer, …

 

Every day you are living in uncertainty.

 

Praying. Hoping.

 

No matter which part of your life you want to improve – relationship, business, health, or wealth…Stop thinking as a human.

 

Stop thinking.

 

Your actions do not create.

 

The mind projecting the illusion of reality focuses your attention outward. As if there was something that could be changed, controlled, improved or achieved.

 

Nothing exists.

 

The world as you see it and think of it is solely a product of your imagination.

 

The world that you see and that you are trying to change, and the one that sees it are the same. They arise simultaneously as the experience of reality on the screen of Consciousness.

 

You can’t change something that is not.

 

Detach from everything.

 

Be fully conscious.

 

There is nothing else to be done.

 

The highest truth is to let go.

 

The final truth is a realization that there is nothing to let go …

 

You alone ARE.

 

When you realize the self, everything that you ever wanted comes to you.

 

You experience ease and effortlessness of life.

 

Life tastes better, and feels better.

 

And most importantly, you feel amazing – being fully grounded in a permanent state of peace.

 

It’s waking up from a dream.

 

No questions left. No fear. No yearning.

 

Just silence.

 

Each moment is a win.   ❤
