What Can I Trust?

We may experience doubts, cynicism and fears, and even forget names but, all the while, these occurrences are being experienced by consciousness. Experiences come and go, but consciousness is constant.

We may think that we know all the teachings, can explain everything and know all the names but, all the while, these occurrences are being experienced by consciousness. All experiences come and go, but consciousness is constant.

It does not matter how intelligent or unintelligent we think we are; we are all consciousness. Our life does not have to be perfect in order to know consciousness. That consciousness is a good heart which is simply joyful, empathetic and compassionate. It is our natural, true nature.

What can I trust?

Trust whomever asked the question. Life has become far too exciting, and expectations are much too high: we get carried away and become crazy.

Look, see, touch, hear, taste, smell, experience – and that’s all.
Consciousness knows.
