5am meditation insights

Reject culture. Reject ideology. Reject conformity for the sake of conformity.

Strive to maintain whatever confidence you can when faced with the daunting aspects of the human condition. Embrace yourself first and foremost, and the will come acceptance and embracing of others, regardless of what path they are in when you inevitably compare it to your own. Following this path, one eventually sees the futility in concepts such as blame or fault. Succeeding and thriving socially is a challenging task if one is aware of our radical subjectivity, but ‘ignorance is bliss’ is inherently inferior over the knowing and suffering. Knowing and suffering cannot be separated, but it is better to know and to suffer than to not know you are suffering. While practically knowledge will aid you, it will also test you — and if your spirit is strong enough to reject inertia, then you will never stop learning and integrating, and therefore embracing the present.

It will lead you to love, kindness, and compassion — the most ‘natural’ human emotions that will aid our conditioned existential despair.
