You Are, What You’ve Been Searching For

When all is done, and your seeking comes to an end, what you will discover is… You Are, What You Have Been Searching For. That is when the search will end. It is very common place in our culture to be obsessed with the search; as if things the way they are, are not okay. Of course, this is the way many of us feel about ourselves, that we must improve, the way we are is not sufficient, and all will be well once we are different. My friend, this is where we miss the point entirely. This approach is motivated by fear. Do not fear what it is you run from, do not fear what’s happening now, for if you do, there will be no power to face it. There will be no power to face now. You will only continue the search until you are tired of running.

For thousands upon thousands of years, man has been on a quest to improve life in accordance to how he sees fit. In the process, we have accomplished little and destroyed a lot. Our accomplishments have not been where it matters most, such as living peacefully, with harmony, and respect for all of life. It has merely impacted the way we go about our lives, not the way we live through our lives. With our effort to improve through control, we wrestle the ocean as if we controlled the tide.  As with yourself, where you are here and now, is where the search ends. Confusing? Good. Now let it transcend the mind.

P.s. Searching for self, is like walking to find your legs.
