Stepping back.

Dear human friend.

Sat Chit Ananda.

I am in tune with life, I am in trust, my mind is peaceful, I engage fully with my surroundings, I step back.

This is now.

I am stepping back — striving no more, going nowhere, doing nothing, being no one.

And Universe, Gaia, Nature … they respond with synchronicities. As simple as that.

I make space for you. For those who still strive, go somewhere, do something, be someone. I give way for those who seek importance, crave for status, want to be noticed, seen, and celebrated by others. And then I just take the roles that world provides me with as if by itself. Those that others would not want to have, maybe because these roles are not recognized as fulfilling, purposeful, or enlightening.

But why do I do that?

Well, let me tell you:

Enlightenment is no firework, and it does not come with noise or light-effects or a tremendous reward. There is no path to enlightenment.

Enlightenment is already within us, and we find it back once we strive no more. Striving no more, going nowhere, doing nothing, being no one. This is said to be the true state of enlightenment. And if you ask me, this is the true state of bliss. And yet, it can only be reached by striving big time, going everywhere, doing as much as we can do and having reached our goal of being this exact someone we want to become.

Having said this, dear human friend, I encourage you to — yes — strive more. Visit any place on this beautiful earth, step by step. Discover these miraculous wonders nature offers, piece by piece. Encounter all these others — essences, things, beings — and of course yourself, moment by moment. Enjoy. Live. Experience. Be curious. Love. Play.

And do it big time!

And walk that path to enlightenment, which is “no” path to enlightenment. It is and is not — both. We all are on the journey to realize that there is no journey.

And I know already that there will be this moment in which you believe for yourself — just like me — that you have now experienced life as it is enough. This will be the moment when you are…
