A Spiritual Philosophic way to find solace in the
nightmarish chaos of our politically disturbing times.
Amid the chaos of life
There is peace.
This Wisdom
It can’t be found by reading about it,
nor just believing
It comes from a place that is ineffable to describe,
yet
It Is closer than anything else in life.

What most of us refer to as our selves…
Is just the story we create about a made up self.
This self that we assume is calling all the shots and
making all our decisions just fools ourselves in believing that
there is a self within us that is in control.
This illusionary self is nowhere to be found within the human autonomy.
But yet,
we spend our whole lives reinforcing this illusion,
so the veils that cover our True nature
becomes almost impossible to transcend.
When we feel the burden of a society that is
embracing a very wrong direction
we feel powerless and very uninspired.
Just to realize that nearly half of our country
willfully embraces the absolute worst possible perspective
humanity has ever had to endure
When a presidential candidate repeatedly states that
“there is an enemy within“…
He defiantly states that he will use the US military
to round up anyone that does not agree with him
and put them into concentration camps
With nearly half our population in agreement and support this diabolical tyrant.
Even when the good guyz, or in this case the good gal
wins the election soon
Just knowing how nearly half of our nation supports the absolute downfall
of our democracy and everything that is important to humanity
To say it’s depressing
Is an underwhelming statement.
How does one find solace?
Consider the Spiritual philosophy of our True Nature
It is boundless.
It is also ineffable
Words can’t describe it.
But,
The objectless aspects of :
Love, Joy, Peace, Bliss, Equanimity
Offer at least a vague understanding of how it feels.
Knowing that we are this objectless aspect
Our True Nature can’t be affected by the materialistic chaos of life.
Just as we can get wrapped up in the drama of a movie
When the house lights come on,
we soon flow back into our normal groove
Because we know …It’s just a story!
C’ La Vie Such is life.
To our True Self
We have the boundless space to allow all materialistic things
and people to be as they are without affecting our well-being.
So,
Just like at a scary movie when we might remind ourselves…
Calm down
It’s just a movie.
So too in our apparently nightmarish society
It’s just a story.
Go Blue! namaste
