How does one value the self?
What is one's natural identity?
Where is security of the self?
Does the geometry of all that is, care about its identity?
Are you not part of the whole circle?
Fear of tomorrow is like a bird who flies away from the flock because it thinks tomorrow there will be no food, that the other birds are leading him astray. In thinking, he stops living.
If you let others define the meaning of word, success, they will always be in charge of your success.
If you let others define your life as successful or unsuccessful, the bank, the job, the markets, the crops, the tides, public opinion, will control your success and be external from you.
What is your natural value?
Does it come from within or without?
Will you choose fear or choose love?
Will you choose what is today, or be in fear of tomorrow?
Will the illusion of space and time bring one to rituals and worship of the means to an end?
Or will life radiate superabundance, mystery and majesty?
When one values the world or sees it only in the way others do, he devalues himself and the others.
But the heart is deaf to measurements.
What good is today, if one fears for tomorrow?
What good is tomorrow if one cannot love today?
Knowledge is a double-edged sword on which many impale themselves. The mind onli knows how to cut and separate, because as itself alone, can never have or be anything of its own, it can onli cut everything else that is sees as the outer jungle. The mind can onli grasp things in duality, and loses sight of what is known deeper. Thus it is a tool as a veil that covers, and a tool as one that cuts, but never as one that knows what is meant to be covered, and what is meant to be cut. Wisdom is necessary to guide knowledge, else it becomes abuse of power. 'What is a good man but a bad man's teacher? What is a bad man but a good man's job? If you don't understand this, you will get lost, however intelligent you are.: It is the great secret.' Lao Tzu https://www.organism.earth/library/document/tao-te-ching
