As soon as the mind and mind identification return; you're no longer yourself but a mental image of yourself, and you start playing games and roles again to get your ego needs met.

Ultimately what you do is secondary. But how you do it is primary.

Learn from nature. See how everything gets accomplished and how the miracle of life unfolds without dissatisfaction or unhappiness.

When the basis for your actions is inner alignment with the present moment, your actions become empowered by the intelligence of life itself.

Even running to catch a train or a taxi, you can enjoy the high energy of the moment.

Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it.

The outer form is a temporary reflection of what you are within, in your essence. That is why love and beauty can never leave you, although all outer forms will.
