A Life with Peace and Tranquility
We live in turbulent times. Things wear out. Experiences fade. Circumstances change. Structures are unstable. People and pets get sick and die. There’s nothing new here other than the fact that the internet and other forms of media amplify and bring all of this impermanence and chaos to our attention more frequently. What is, perhaps, more prevalent today than in the past is the desire for our world to be otherwise. We crave stability, certainty, simplicity, and clarity. Unfortunately, that craving can lead to disappointment, frustration, and even suffering. The rational/analytical mind believes that it can know the causes and conditions that will "fix" all the volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity we regularly experience. That's a big mistake, and all the activity generated from trying to control situations will exhaust you. When you've been tossed into the white-water rapids of life, there is very little left-brain activity that will help. It's best just to relax and flow with the river until it casts you ashore (or, you drown). This book is about relaxing and flowing with the vicissitudes of life. It's about the possibility of being at peace and in harmony. And, it’s about taking action, when necessary, from that state of being. Living in a turbulent world takes courage, compassion, and wisdom: -Courage to continue to engage with people and circumstances when there is no stability, certainty, simplicity, or clarity. -Compassion for yourself and for others when things do not seem to be going your way. -Wisdom to combine these two virtues and apply them in daily life. Living in peace and tranquility requires that you slow down, silence your inner critic, and accept what is – especially dealing with the difficult emotions that arise when you confront the eventuality of your own death. This eBook is dedicated to all who want to “get their mind[s] right.”
