54 hours, no food
Still clear, more and more profound revelations as the day progresses. Food is an afterthought in these moments. There is hunger but it is easily outmatched by the desire to remain in this state of just being. Tuned in.. connected. Whatever words you want to use. Some would say spiritual growth, I would say unknowing. There is no need to “grow” spiritually. It’s already within us. It’s the mind thinking that it knows things that is blocking that path. Unknowing allows me to tap into that which has always been there.
I had the thoughts about food in the grocery store broken down by ingredient yesterday. What would be left, what would nourish you and what wouldn’t serve you. The sugar, the corn.. it would feed you, but it’s not true nourishment.. the fruit would be there, the vegetables, the meats.. they would truly nourish you. It was profound. Today I had that same revelation, but about mankind.
Imagine our buildings crumble, cars crumble, everything reduced to piles… metal, paper, brick, etc..you’re there, naked. What would nourish you? (I’m not talking about your body, of course you would need food). But what would give you a reason to go on?? To thrive? To want to live and push forward!!! It would be very hard to flourish alone under those circumstances. You could survive, sure, but flourish? No. LOVE. Love could do it, would do it.. connection would do it. That’s all that truly matters. Under those conditions hate would have no place, talking about people or things.. meaningless. jobs, money,,, mean nothing. Look around. If your house crumbled, cars, jobs, homes… are you still surrounded by love? Or have you attached to the things and forgotten what will actually nourish you? Are the things you’ve acquired your pile of sugar, your pile of corn and the fruit that would TRULY nourish you is not actually in your home..Think deeply about this. I am.
