' Awakening '...

Please drop this idea that you will become peaceful and happy if you wake up.

Yes you might have these periods, but awakening is not into peace, but into clarity of who we are.

From that clarity peace of mind might come, but still there will be different situations in life, and the mind will still do his reactions.

At one point might be not peace, but fury, but would you be judging a child who tripped and fell down, and is crying in all his might?

But look at him couple of minutes later, he is laughing like crazy!

Who we are is crying, laughing and all in between, and have no preference for the mind state, only mind itself does.

Mind has these ideas how to be awake, do not listen to that crap, just be like that child, spontaneous.

This Is what life of nobility is about: to find peace that is beyond peace of mind.
