Indulging in any kind of ( I WANT TO KNOW??? ) mental activity will do nothing other than whip up a huge amount of








Help yourself to yourself, for there is NOTHING - NOT A THING - either inside or outside of the WORD

Silent observation is the only real TRUTH

Don't tell me what I can and can't eat.

I'm greedy for knowledge, that's just the way I am.

Aquiring knowledge is a mental phenomena even though the mind knows there are no answers, only questions as to what the mind is.

Life has no questions, nor does it have any answers.

Only the mind is born, and so tis only the mind that is addicted to story telling....where old habits die hard.

I also want to know as much as possible but prefer to learn at a slow pace

Prior to knowledge you do not exist in the way you've only ever thought you do. Without knowledge of you there is no you. So there is a desire for knowledge ony in the sense there is no you without it, even though knowledge is just a fable.

There's nothing to learn here. Walking, talking, breathing, living, dying, feeling, is all just being done and happening to no one.

The mind seeks knowledge like a food.

A still mind is like a still wind.

What can the mind do with nothing.

Probably best to keep it all to bare minimum. There's nothing to see here, we're all the same naked under the mask of pretention.

There's no happy ever after. That was just a lie. The moment you finally accumulate some information and knowledge, you lose it all and die. Poof! and it's gone with the wind.

The unique never to be repeated kaleidoscopic pattern that was your expression is no more.

It is sad, even cruel, to lose everyone and everything. I think there comes a time when folks realize that the most important thing to do is to prepare for the end, by living properly. Better sooner than later. Non-existence is unimaginable and for that reason, we can only know life.
