The most important thing in life can be very different for everyone. Certainly, the situation is influenced by many things, but one that is certain is primarily everyday life, which has been going on for a long time, since we are aware – or unconscious – that we learn from others.
We imitate, accept samples, follow, approve or reject, agree or not, accept or fight, etc. During that time, many changes occurred. Desires and ideals, thoughts and experiences, problems and solutions, various needs and ways to fulfill them unwittingly have shifted the only important thing for humans, namely the divine reality. The longer, people become more forgetful of themselves.
If there is a willingness to acknowledge that, of course, there will be the intention and desire to recall or to wake up and realize our primordial state, which is always there despite being buried deep inside, under the rubbish heap of neglect.
It is the right of everyone to have a perspective on life from our own knowledge, experience, beliefs, thoughts or logic, but if we realize that we are currently asleep and will only wake up when we die, what will we do?
Some people certainly don’t care about that, but not a few also want to wake up right now, here, accept the ego death here, now also to be able to find the Self of all yourself even though we have to pass through many volcanic craters from the mountain of Love the Divine.
There are people who try to wake up now from the death of most people, by involving their intellect and free will to get out of helplessness. Willing, and strive to die before dying, in order to awaken in reality as a prototype of the Universal human while the breath still blows in the body, to enter the inner space of our hearts and at the same time kneel before the altar of the Supreme Love.

What did the Buddha say to the hot dog vendor?
It seems like Buddha doesn’t want to repeat his words twice here.
Make me one, with everything…
I know. You’ve ever asked it and I’ve ever answered it. That’s why He doesn’t want to answer twice, brother.
whoops! I am like a broken record. Just love that joke…
Yeah! I’m impressed with that joke too…
Maybe is a better answer for me for the first two. I think sometimes we do sleep through life and are unaware of all that is.
But, sometimes I don’t.
Thanks, Doc.
I really appreciate your views and thoughts. With that, I am sure you are not someone who is merely carried away by the outward life.
I would love to say no, but there are times when I get lost and have to struggle to return.
Well, the flow of life is sometimes too heavy and forces us to struggle, but that is only possible if we are aware that the current is or has dragged us right?
A lot to unpack in that statement Albert. The further the current takes us, the further we have gone. If it is towards our goal than the struggles were within reason. If the current takes us away from our original goal, then no struggles are painful then.
A friend of mine, I think that so-different people are thinking differently
Yes, my friend. We all know that people have their own thinking. Here, I just want to share mine.
A nice friend to share with us
Thank you for your appreciation, and I really appreciate that, Lado.
Dear friend of mine with you, it’s really nice to chat a little
I’m so glad to hear that, dear friend.
I love the amazing detail on the picture shared
Thank you so much for the compliment, Thomas.
ZzzzzZz… ringgggggg….. Good morning.
Good morning, dear friend. Are you still sleeping with that Zzzzzz…
Too deep … I need to dig out my thinking cap
or maybe get that alarm clock …
:p
Aha! So it turns out you are using a thinking hat…
Alarm? Didn’t you hear the alarm had been ringing for a long time and made the neighbors unable to sleep?
Oh, so that’s why they didn’t give me a good face whenever I go out?
Yikes! Now… where is the alarm clock… ???
Yep! I am sure they see Einstein when people meet you.
Open your heart, and you will see the alarm. Hehehe…
I used to struggle with emotions like this, but I know more about the person I am, and the person I want to become. This post may be my favorite of all of yours. A++++++
Hmmm… That’s why you became a wise woman, dear friend.
OMG. Thanks for the 6+ after A!!! Wow!
Love the photos Albert.
I agree with you about life.
..”The most important thing in life can be very different for everyone.”
This statement is so true. We each must find what our purpose here in life is
all about.
Yes, Carol. Just like the wise man said, “while the breath still blows in the body”
Indeed my friend. Well said.
Great post … I enjoyed reading …
Thank you for the compliment, Vidocka. So glad you enjoy it.
Great blog and lovely photos. I love philosophical pieces like this.
Thanks a lot for the compliment, Maggie.
Well, most of my writing is this theme.
