Do not pursue the past.
Do not lose yourself in the future.
The past no longer is.
The future has not yet come.
Looking deeply at life as it is in the very here and now;
the practitioner dwells in stability and freedom.
– Bhaddekaratta Sutta
“I seek the meaning of existence,” said the stranger.
“You are of course assuming,” said the Master, “that existence has a meaning.”
“Doesn’t it?”
“When you experience existence as it is – not as you think it is – you will discover that your question has no meaning,” said the Master.
– Anthony de Mello
