AChristopher Hansard:[Bliss and Boredom]

Bliss and Boredom, silence and noise,

calm and rush, silence and noise, clamour and quietude, dark and light,

to have and not to have,

these are the questions that are asked deep within our everyday selves and we are not normally conscious of the asking. Until, one, some or all of them come rushing out in a surprise guerilla assault of our fragile sense of self. These fuel most people’s search for meaning, comfort and stability.

But they are heat waves that come from the energy our everyday mind when it tries to make sense of our lives, selves and the world.

To move beyond becoming influenced by the rise and fall of all of these, we need to understand that we can let go of trying to make sense of it, and allow the natural sense to make sense of us.

Yes, we need to let go of the searching when fueled by all of these things that I have listed and allow the natural sense within us to show us that there is no search.

Because you are the journey and the destination and you have already arrived, it is just, that at some point in your journey through Life, you forgot. Its like meeting someone from years ago, and you can’t quite place their face or name, but you know that you know them from somewhere.

The natural sense within can show you that beneath the thrum of all of these experiences that I mentioned earlier is a great simplicity, and it is constant and yet as you experience it, it is renewed and so are you.

There will be no more bliss or boredom, but contentment and a knowing of the great laugh that resounds in the universe, and you will taste joy in everything and everyone.

Beyond Bliss, beyond boredom, you will find yourself and like a long lost lover rush to embrace yourself in the experience of the ever constant divine.
