Being Is The Goal | A Poem

This Non-dual poem extends an invitation for you to cease the chase for the elusive (future successes & achievements) and to find refuge in the ever-lasting present. It is an extract from the course "Being Present In A Busy World".

Transcript

I would like to share a poem with you that I wrote called Being is the goal.

In the spiritual realm achievement is opposite.

A mysterious discovery for knowledge becomes obsolete Success is simply returning to this moment.

No longer aiming for future outcomes Just slowing down and noticing allowing what comes Being is rewarded,

Not doing witnessing,

Neither attaching nor detaching Watching the continuous process of the body-mind Aiming not to slow it down by speeding up or multitasking So return to the now and forget about the how Smile about who you already are Know that all you need is already within.

If you're already complete,

Why work so hard?

There's no more need to chase the elusive.

Find and remain in the everlasting present What if all you ever sought after was right here,

Closer than close,

In your very essence?

Thank you for listening
