So I have been playing with spirituality for a couple years now. Why? This question was posed to me this morning. I realized that there must be a simple reason. The first answers that came to mind were: I want more peace, I want to be less angry, I want meaning, I want to dissolve the ego, I want purpose, I want less confusion, I want simplicity.
I crave all these qualities, but they just seem superficial. I meditated for twenty-five minutes today. This is my longest meditation to date. Most of the time it is five or ten minutes. During this time the most profound answer made its way through the tornado of thoughts: To live deeply. And this is what I really want above all. Most beings probably have the same want at their core. If you live deeply then anything that happens on the outside will be somewhat unimportant. Outside circumstances change like the seasons. If one is present to experience everything then the actual events will all be satisfying.
