surrender

a concept from all the big religions and spiritual belief systems

but does it make sense once the distorting lens of self is no longer believed in?

without a me, who is going to surrender?

without an other, who or what could this me surrender to?

the hidden premise beneath the concepts of surrender, is the assumption that there is a separate self.

trying to surrender is an endless, pointless struggle, because there isn't really an entity that needs to surrender.

there is simply life, as it is, in this moment.

find the one who must surrender, if it can be found.

it can't be found, but do not take these words as a proof or belief. it's absolutely possible, in the reality of right-here-and-now, to look and to see.

Make the lie big,
make it simple,
keep saying it,
and eventually they will believe it.

Why are you unhappy?
Because 99.9 per cent
Of everything you think,
And of everything you do,
Is for yourself —
And there isn't one.

To write something and leave it behind us,
It is but a dream.
When we awake we know There is not even anyone to read it.
