I know this truth.
Why do I call it elusive?
Because it is something I know factually.
And something I am working to make a reality.
It is an age-old truth, taught by mystics of all ages.
Jesus said, do not amass wealth on earth,
where thieves can steal and moth destroy.
Buddhism talks about the impermanence of things.
Everything being an illusion.
How do I make that my reality?
By a subtle almost imperceptible mode of being.
Looking at the entire thing from a perch above.
The perch being my higher self.
It is taking an objective view of life as it is.
The reality of life as it is from my spirit self.
Where you close the eyes of your physical self,
close the eyes of your mental self
and look at it with the eyes of your spirit self.
Today I am here.
Tomorrow, like an incident of late, I could be gone.
I had gone for eye injection.
It handicapped my perception.
I found myself driving on the wrong side of the road,
with streams of cars coming towards me.
Something took me over.
Like a slow motion movie where time slowed down.
My mind, in an almost out of body state, registered the error.
And I moved into the safe yellow lane.
And that is a reality of life.
Mere seconds and I could have lost my life to a headlong collision.
Life could be as long as living to a hundred.
Or short.
The mystics know that through experiencing the world of spirit.
TThey asked us, why be so engaged with the material world.
When it is but an illusion.
And we are spirits engaged in human existence.
That in the twinkling of an eye, we would be on the other side.
So why live this world as though it is all there is to life.
I am beginning to see it.
To make it my reality.
I am not there yet but almost almost there,
