The other day I was in a diner (tripping on some good bridgesii)and I started talking to this old man. He was a retired engineer who worked on NASA's space missions, brilliant guy. We were bullshitting about the Middle East, religion, and the economy. Anyway, I asked him, "So how do you find meaning in this existence? What is it about? What is the purpose?"
He didn't skip a beat. He said that he just doesn't think about it. "It'll drive you crazy." It's driving you crazy, Raliegh. You'll get peace, but the path you're on seems more a struggle than anything else.

When you are Awake there are no more questions. All demands are met and fulfilled. Just start living it your own way, as if everything besides the physical material was your creation, and you'll see. Everything you need is inside. And then you live the mystery, rather than living for the answer to the mystery.

hey man. there are no such things as places, only situations. stillness is an illusion. staring at the center will always draw you in circles because it's a singularity... your perception will only flow past it, there's nothing to land on... turn your senses outward. feel and see the universe as it presents itself to you.

And these are the things I need to do... To perceive instead of visit that path of knowledge and understanding that it is infinite... I need to LIVE in what I know instead of asking why I know it, and what is right, wrong, what defines, etc.
Why is it I find drugs bringing me on this circular path? Why do I continue myself to do it? I don't know if it's good or bad, because I cannot define this on my own, there is no preset.

People walk around saying things like "I think this" or "I feel that" or "I do that". It is well established, that we humans, ARE the thinker and the feelers and the doers.
We are individuals walking around, doing our shit, thinking our thoughts.
If I were to ask you, what causes a thought, you would say "I". I caused the thought. I thunk it.
Place yourself in a scenario, where you see a red rug. You might think, "Oh, a red rug".
But what really caused the thought, "Oh, a red rug"?
What is the thinker?
