Always concentrate on your state of being-ness, never on the
mode of being.
Don’t try, genuinely be.
Understand you can never be too humble.
Appreciate and be grateful for everything and every single
occasion and situation you’re facing and living through.
Be patient. Always.
Forgive and be kind to yourself. You can never be too graceful.
Never monitor your progress or try to achieve something—
they lead to becoming.
Always acknowledge and be aware of your consciousness. As
long as there is something that sees, hears, thinks, feels, or
senses, there is still something to learn—the quest is not over.
Do not fixate on anything. There are no excuses. Always be
ready to sacrifice everything you have, are, or believe in.
Humbleness and honesty with yourself helps.
Always verify your actions and thoughts by your ethical and
moral standards. Be honest and watch for half-truths and
excuses. Sloppiness is never acceptable.
Only the truth survives.

We are conservative by nature. We tend to enclose ourselves.
Some of the fences we build are physical and more tangible,
while others are more abstract. We want to protect ourselves
from the outside world and its renewal.
External fences are easier to conceive. They have many
faces, from muscle building to creating physical security
measures, all the way to building wealth and monetary riches.
Mental fences are harder to pinpoint and the most difficult
for us to realize. We hide behind our own habits, traditions,
mental and conceptual principles and rules, ways of behavior,
and subconscious patterns. These mental barriers limit our
perception and understanding of the realities of the world.
They filter the outside world for us and give us our sense of
security and control. But by doing so, they also prevent us
from renewing and developing ourselves. Our existence is
based on our self-perception, and the fences are guarding us
from anything that is not known and familiar to us—the
unpleasantness of the external world.

Way to see,
hear,
taste,
feel,
know,
and live the world;
With good intentions,
limited knowledge,
poor perception,
lacking observation
but still trying.
Without shame,
or humbleness,
knowing,
acting,
and behaving
with certainty,
rightness,
a sense of pride,
and justification,
no shadow of doubt,
or sign of imperfectness.
The wise will know,
acknowledge,
and let go.
Help with patience,
love,
and kindness.
We will learn,
and see the world,
in a way of perfectness,
with no trace of selfishness.
