Be Free...surrender your existence to Existence...

(shared from facebook)
"Surrender your existence to existence.
Discover your spontaneity.
To entertain the belief that you know 
what you are going to do in the future or next week 
is a madness.
What a restriction, a limitation and a repression.
Life flows spontaneously 
and is infinitely greater 
than all your plans or intentions put together.
Why spoil it with hasty and vain projections?
Let it be whatever it will be. 
Give up trying to manipulate.
This is Freedom."

enlightenment is intelligent...

~Scott Morrison~

"That's the thing, isn't it? 
Enlightenment is ruthlessly intelligent. 
Peace doesn't get involved in any of the details - 
one's historical, moral, religious, spiritual,
 racial, political, educational or social background, and so on. 
Not one iota. 
Wisdom cares nothing about these things. 
Freedom only knows of this one eternally present moment. 
This makes it all very simple - 
no need to complicate it. 
With no historical or future entanglements, 
there is just one immediate choice: 
Are you completely willing 
to be that which you say you love and revere, 
no matter what the circumstances? 
No pause, no hesitation, no deliberation. 
If you say "Yes" 
and proceed to speak or think in a way that contradicts it,
 then it begs the question, are you serious about this? 
This simple question, 
"The way you are living this instant, does it work?" 
is profoundly useful. 
If it isn't working, 
then what will it take?

If we are not Wisdom, 
if we are not Freedom, 
if we are not Serenity 
this very instant, 
then what good is any of this? 
If we are, then in our very own being, 
we offer the most precious and joyful gift in the world to everyone around us. 
Infinitely more
 than thousands of philosophies or religions, 
or millions of words. 
It's that simple."
