To live a life without this burden is to live a life without being hijacked by those images. So the mind is fully at this moment with all the senses activated, Functioning harmoniously. And at this moment, At each moment, There is beauty. And what we can describe is only up to this. What the speaker says is not a thing. One has to go into it to really take action, To really, Sheerly shed all the burdens. To find out what an authentic life is. One has to go into self to understand the tradition, The culture, The ideology, This civilization. Can I live a life without being burdened by this? The mind mustn't condemn or justify it, Or else the condemnation or the justification distorts the perception. The mind is open to look, To inquire. No judgment, But see things as they are. Day by day, Year by year. We are all becoming older, Biologically, Physically. But can the mind not join this trend? Can the mind stay young? Stay fresh? Stay innocent? This also means can the mind live without any burden? And when the mind has no burden, The mind is caring. It's caring for everybody. Without the burden, The mind has space, Vast space where there's compassion. All that is being said here is not theory, Ideas. The verbs are not a thing, Though they are pointing to the truth. But one must come upon it in person.
