Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

An Irish politician is supposed to have said "If you are not confused by now then you just don't know what is going on." He was very close to the truth, much more than one would think.

Confusion is a necessary part of the process of increasing awareness. When new things rise into our awareness they are fuzzy and unclear. Confusion about the nature and the meaning of of these new things which present themselves is inevitable.

I will be the first one to say I have always hated that stupid sentence.
And it is stupid.
I'm sure at the time the teacher said it it was pertinent.

I always enjoy how a animal can be so taoist sufficient. Still they got that iron to move on and not stupify with expectation or any sort of lingering panic or any sort of doubt not worth the dime trouble.

Yes, the phrase is about seeing when someone is just blowing steam out of their ***. Usually those kinds of people are gasbags.
