Each morning I wake up to one question: How can we reduce the suffering in the world? I know, to some this may seem a naively idealistic question, or perhaps hubris. But given the burden of suffering in the world, it is an urgent one.
There are countless organizations and individuals working in their own way to accomplish this. Some work to reduce and cure disease, others to feed and house the poor, others to protect the environment, and yet others to build infrastructure and provide a multitude of services that improve quality of life. Each has their own specialty to offer. Each is a unique instrument in the hands of the Divine to contribute to and uplift humanity. All are necessary and laudable.
I do not have great material resources or an army of volunteers, but fortunately, the answer to my question each morning does not require these. The answer each day for me is the same, and it is simple: Bring the knowledge of how to realize the Divine Self to as many people as possible.
Each person on earth, without exception, has within them the Infinite, the Divine—unbounded pure intelligence, pure energy, absolute bliss. Realize this in your direct experience, and suffering is no more. It is the way to literally live heaven on earth. This is a practical goal. It is not a fantasy of imagination. It is achievable. Many have achieved this.
Fortunately, somehow, by the Grace of the Divine and the compassion and wisdom of my teachers and all the enlightened, the means to accomplish this is available. Naturally, there are many practical benefits you will gain from this path of meditation. You can review some those on the page about Effortless Mind 1. Ultimately, though, living Divine creative intelligence and bliss is the purpose of the practices taught on this website. This is what they can bring to anyone who practices with dedication. May you discover the truth of this for yourself.
Om, peace, peace, peace…
