#Faith happens only when the #duality has fallen; it is not a #belief against #doubt.

When belief and doubts both have disappeared, then something happens which is faith, which is #trust.

When desiring disappears there is trust!

#Trust means moving with #life without any #expectations, #desires, demands of your own. Not #asking, not #complaining. Whatsoever happens, #accepting it with deepest #gratitude and #awareness.

Simply seeing the #reality, that the #opposite is implied everywhere, #trust happens.

It is not in any #helplessness that you #accept. It is simply the nature of #life that the opposite is implied.

Looking at the #fact, #truth, deep inside you, gives you trust..

It takes the great #courage to be #choiceless, because the mind says, “Choose!”

The #mind says, “Say something! This is #wrong, that is #good. This is #beautiful, this is #ugly. I #love this, I #hate that.” Mind says, “Choose!”

Once you #divide, mind is at ease.

#Aristotle says A is A and cannot be other than A - the opposites cannot meet.

#Zen says there are no #opposites - they are already meeting, they have always been meeting. This is one of the most fundamental #truth to be #realized, that opposites are not opposites.

How can you be miserable if you don’t #choose?
How can you be miserable if you don’t ask for a particular #result?
How can you be miserable if you don't seek a particular #goal?

Nothing can make you #miserable except your #mind. It asks for #goals, #choices, #decisions.

If you live #choicelessly and allow #life to happen, then you simply become a field.

Life happens in you, but you(the mind) are not the manager. You don’t manage it, you don’t control it. When you are not the controller all #tensions dissolve; then you are totally #relaxed.

The #polarity- Whenever you #choose, it is not only the world that is divided, you are also divided through your #choice.

You are not whole and then you cannot allow #life to happen. And all #benediction comes in life as #grace, as a #gift; it is not #achieved through #effort.

As #within, so #without.

If you are #whole within, the whole without happens to you immediately. If you are #divided within, the whole without is divided.

Don’t #choose. Then this existence is the most perfect. It is there, all around you, waiting for you.

Whenever you become #aware it will be #revealed to you. But if your #mind goes on #working inside, #dividing, #choosing, creating #conflicts, it will never happen

#Logic is good, #laughter too is good - and laughter brings #balance. It is good to be #serious, it is good to be non-serious too, and there should be a constant balancing.

Have you seen a #tightrope walker? He continuously balances himself. This is how one should move in #life

When you are there without #condemnation and #justification, then in that #choiceless #awareness all #psychological #pain simply evaporates as dewdrops in the early morning sun.

This is the one, the #Tao, or you can call it #godliness. The #observer has become the #observed.

Always remember: #Choicelessness cannot be #chosen, #desirelessness cannot be #desired, #detachment cannot be #practiced.

This is the message of #Zen: #Look into things, and the obvious #reveals itself.
