The Problem With Insightful Statements

Throughout history, there have been many insightful statements – which make no difference to us. They are mainly filed at the back of our mind as clever and interesting, but they don’t change our attitude. This makes words meaningless, which they are until we investigate them personally to see if they are true or not.

Just because a guru says something doesn’t make it the truth. And it’s here that we have a problem. We may have good intentions, but these cloud reality when we jump in with both feet without realising that we’ve fallen down the rabbit hole of wonderland. Believing is not the same as knowing.

Drop everything.
What is left?
Awareness.

What was it we dropped?
