Serenity Overcomes This Manic World

Serenity: the state of being calm, clear, peaceful, and untroubled.

There are troubling experiences in the world, but even valid protests are not going to stop them as such actions are taken in account as part of the deception. They will only give cause for further troubles. We need to bring the dark into the light.

The deranged powers at work in the world are driven by gaining more power. This hidden agenda is the dark side of humanity. I say ‘hidden’ because what we see is only the effect of a cause.

Intellectuals and philosophers are merely narrators; they do not change anything. To be wise is to know what is happening, but never be taken in – even by a Buddha’s words. 🙂

At this moment in human history, we can only sow seeds of clarity, just as the enlightened ones did. As long as people run around the playground acting out stories, nothing will change. Clever rhetoric merely obscures the problem.

Rhetoric: effective or persuasive communication designed to have an impressive effect, but which is often lacking in meaningful content.

It is serenity that illumines the darkness.
A stable mind creates an atmosphere of clarity.
This is all that is needed.

Silent enlightenment comes before words.
