If We Don’t Realise The Truth

Realisation is experiencing both what we are, and what we have become. We are the essence of consciousness – enlightenment itself – which is addicted to toys. Doesn’t that sound crazy?

Originally, the word ‘toy’ meant a foolish story, trifling speech, an amusement, or a clever trick before it evolved to mean a physical plaything.

We spend our entire lives with toys – “Manufactured for Your Enjoyment” – rather than realising what we are. In this way, humanity is constantly distracted, absent-minded, preoccupied, unable to concentrate… which creates anxiety and internal worries about whatever we’re attached to.

Realisation isn’t about beautiful words.
It’s experiencing the meaning.

Enlightenment isn’t lofty ideas.
It’s realising the simplicity of being.

Words are then just toys.

The trap of intellectualisation is that we mistake the menu for the meal. Words describe reality, but they’re not reality itself. This can’t be said enough times.

When we treat beautiful words or complex concepts as toys, spirituality becomes a playground for the mind rather than a transformation of the mind. The truth is incredibly close, so close that the mind overshoots it while looking for something grand – The Great Toy, The Maha Toy. 🙂

Even meditation is a toy.
When we drop the meditation,
we have arrived.
