The Gravitational Pull of Our Being

Wednesday 28 August 2024

Existential Lack Is Resolved in Being

Become aware of the subtle expectation that something is missing, that your circumstances will give you something to end dissatisfaction. This expectation may take the form of an object, relationship or experience you desire, or just a longing or expectation. Anything given to or acquired by us would not be what we deeply long for, which is lasting, unfluctuating peace and joy. Have the clarity and the courage to see that nothing and nobody can give you that, nor need they. Dissatisfaction can also be felt as boredom. In our spiritual pursuits, we escape from dissatisfaction through teachers, teachings, traditions, practices, books, videos and so on. While these all have their place, at a certain stage, we have to face this core existential sense of lack that can only be resolved in our being. Pure, aware presence, aware being is what we are – it cannot be given or taken away.
