Motifs

• Actions are. They need not have a reason nor a purpose. It just is. Now.
• Try saying the same thing, replacing the word “but” with “and”.
• A Zen Master was pouring tea for his student. He fills up the cup and continues pouring, and the cup begins to overflow. The Student then says to the Master: “Master, the cup is full! It can’t fit anymore!” And the Master said: “That… is you.”
• When something has passed, you need not feel one “lost” someone. You “had” something. And now that something is in you.
• When one feels fear, one is afraid of something that might or might not happen in the future. Fear only lives in the future. There is no fear in the present - The present already is.
• When one lives in the present, one finds joy and energy. The future is uncertain, and if the mind lives there, it is drained attempting to focus on the myriad possibilities, and fear and anxiety may arise. When one draws focus back to the present, one finds no fear Here, Now.
• Now is the perpetual canvas upon which we are painting our dreams.
• “I am the greatest in the world!”, said the wave as it crashed back into the sea.
• Act as if your friends like you.
• Dance allows one to reconnect mind and body in the Now.
• I felt as if I was becoming unstuck from the surface of the world that I had always been focused on. And as my focus turned inwards, I saw an Ocean of Consciousness, in which all of its fluid is Conscious, Consciousness, and when I delved into its contemplation, I felt a joy of being and freedom of Consciousness and Choice. And it played with each other, it made forms, playfully, it made and flowed as it chose to.
• We are enough.
• Fear is a friend. It reminds One One is not present.
• Fear indicates an opportunity to explore a new boundary, and the space beyond it.
• *This World* is What Is! Said by Knight Brother. (I got way high and thought "What Is It? WHAT IS IT??" And it always came back to *THIS*).
• Push with Intention. In contrast with pulling towards an Expectation.
• An ever-nascent sapling of Yes sings within.
• The world is often filtered through purpose and utility, through roles. If so filtered, one projects the world into a lower-dimensional reality, defined by our purposes and roles (money, achievements, glory, approval). Then, though, the world is perceived as a faded shadow of its potential. World Is. All roles and functions and purposes are abstract concepts only present if we allow them to be.
• Act out of Love rather than out of Fear. Love is attraction, Fear is repulsion.
• Laughter is the dissolution of images. Like sand that disperses when sandcastle is blown away.
• Let flows within flow. Images and expectations are holds, obstructions. Lacks and wants are voids, bubbles. Let Flow. Through all. It Wills Flow.
• When seeing Yellow, feel Yellow. When seeing stripes, feel stripey. When seeing bars, feel barry. When feeling wind, feeling Windy. When seeing migrant clouds, feel wispiness caress you within and gentleness slide your body.
• "Then there is nothing to heal!" "Yes!"
• Draw in.
• We're never there. We're always here.
• About the Present. "It's happening! You're missing it!", Stan said.
