Your world is a reflection of your inner state
-------------------- "Only if one knows the truth of love, which is the real nature of Self, will the strong entangled knot of life be untied. Only if one attains the height of love will liberation be attained. Such is the heart of reality. The experience of Self is only love, which is seeing only love, hearing only love, feeling only love, tasting only love & smelling only love, which is bliss"

No wonder why my inner state is a fuckin mess, sometimes... And the perfect place all at the same time.

The inner core is pure, still & perfect but seems to get clouded by interpretation which we feel as inner, so interpretation is how we see the world, if our interpretation is suffering we see suffering, if it is joy we see joy.
To see truth don't interpret at all, just see.
Wipe off the dust & let this whole universe be a reflected in you.

This is proving to be really good advice. I've been trying to let go more finally instead of chase the tale/tail.
let this whole universe be a reflected in you.
Starting at Earth I find myself a bit overwhelmed at even truly seeing what is there/here. Perfect for a lot of people but a huge problem, and war for a very large amount of other people. Sad, fun, crazy, bat-shit insane perhaps. Unattached is best. I want this mess to have minimal influence on my mental state.

Stop chasing the tail, let it go, but at the same time when it feels impossible to stop the chase, bite the tail and dont let it go!
The world is insane, if you dont want it to influence your mental state just be aware that you see all states come & go so you are before them, is what sees them affected by any state that comes & goes?
I know this can sound annoying but just really look, if some huge emotion comes up, your aware of it when it arises, when its in full force your still aware (to some extent), then when it passes your still aware. So just stay as the awareness, come back and say what you have to even if its "your pissing me off now" but still stay as the awareness of that!
Put it into practice & see, that was the best advice i got in my life to "stay as the awareness", the simplest advice i find is the most profound

That was much more profound when I thought it said stay as the awesomeness.
-------------------- It's not what we eat but what we digest that makes us strong;
not what we gain but what we save that makes us rich;
not what we read but what we remember that makes us learned;
and not what we profess but what we practice that gives us integrity.
