Spiritual stress.

apr 20, 2021 | Awakening, English, Insights, Personal, Purpose and Meaning, Spirituality

So what’s next?

You seem to be spiritually evolving, gaining momentum, seeing more and more and more.
But now what?
More meditation?
Courses?
Books?
Or would less be better, extreme minimalism, becoming a vegan, giving up sex and pleasure and money?
WHAT to do next?
It can drive you crazy.
It’s like you’re always one step behind.
Like the universe is leaving without you if you don’t find the magic ticket.
You are most definitely not doing enough, learning enough, growing enough.
Or you are doing too much, but how much too much?
You can’t fucking Tao or Wu Wei yourself through life, can you, when there’s taxes and mortgages and insurances and bills all these other obligations?!
You HAVE to keep busy, expand, attract, yeah, keep attracting the good stuff, make it work, go fast or die young, Go Go Go!
Or should you pull back from life, live in the woods, meditate 48 hours per day?
The bad news is: it doesn’t matter.
And the good news?
It doesn’t matter.
It is not your job to figure it out.
If there IS a boat, you won’t miss it.
If there IS something to do, it is unavoidable and it WILL be done, and you’ll know exactly when that is.
If there IS more learning to do, it will happen without a doubt, whether you think you are responsible or not.
You can either drop it all, or try and pick more up than ever before.
You can run or hide, but you can never REALLY hide.
It doesn’t matter.
You are on your way.
You ARE the way.
It is all unfolding perfectly.
And you just can’t go wrong.
