Whatever We Experience, We Are Present

Whatever is experienced, I am present. Whether I am depressed or enthusiastic, I am present. Presence shines equally in deep depression or in a moment of ecstasy. No experience is preferable in the recognition of the nature of our being, which remains the same irrespective of the experience. What we long for is to be divested of the feeling of longing and stand revealed as pure being. Being is not an attribute of a person. A person is an attribute of being. The unity of being that underlies the appearance of multiplicity and diversity is experienced as love or beauty. We do not let the appearance of the world veil its reality. We have a sacred duty to recognize this truth, to live in the implications of this recognition and to communicate this love and understanding in the world.
