The great teachings unanimously emphasize
that all the peace, wisdom, and joy in the universe are already within us;
we don't have to gain, develop, or attain them.
We're like a child standing in a beautiful park with his eyes shut tight.
We don't need to imagine trees, flowers, deer, birds, and sky;
we merely need to open our eyes and realize what is already here, who we really are --
as soon as we quit pretending we're small or unholy.
