Every human being in the human form has limitations.

Vigilance in oneself is very important. Vigilance means to be alert to what happens inside, so you can catch an old, collective habit pattern.

Ask yourself: Is there joy, ease and lightness in what i'm doing? If there isn't then time is covering up the present moment, and life is perceived as a burden or a struggle.

Some form of suffering often brings about a readiness. One can say it cracks open the shell of the egoic mind with which many people identify as "me." Life cracks open that shell, and once that crack is there, then we are reached more easily by spiritual teaching.

Stress is caused by being 'here' but wanting to be 'there'.

Life isn't as serious as the mind makes it out to be.

The sun never sets. It is only an appearance due to the observer's limited perspective. And yet, what a sublime illusion it is.
