Many people are so trapped
in their own minds
that the beauty of nature
doesn’t really exist.
They may say, “What a beautiful flower !” but it is just an
an automatic mental label.
Because they are not in stillness, they are not present,
they are not really seeing the flower,
they do not perceive its essence, its holiness,
just as they do not know themselves,
they do not perceive their own essence,
their own sacredness.
Everyone always wants to appear immaculate, chaste and pure, without any stain, filled with their whiteness and innocence.
But only those who are truly noble and arboreal, who always live and let live, and above all, who really have nothing to hide, can be like that.
As far as I am concerned, I never lie to myself.
Consequently, I never lie to others.
Whatever I have done in my life, I have always taken responsibility for my actions.
Instead, everyone usually lies, especially to themselves.
They fool themselves into thinking they are what they are not.
