The Now
We must comprehend and be aware of the Now;
Yesterday is history;
Tomorrow is a mystery;
Today is a gift, which is called the present;
The present is the now...
Even it is history that i, Juan Mirieth Auriel, had typed this post for you, my friend, to see and read;
Even now, you are reading my post; you would then comprehend with awareness of the now;
The Now is the middle path between the past and the future;
The Past itself is history; may one's past be sealed with one's karmic records established by the Lords of Karma; no one can alter their past; history is written and sealed;
The future is always and will always be a mystery; it is written in James 4:13-17:
“Now listen, you who say, 'Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money'; why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow; what is your life; you are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes; instead, you ought to say, 'If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that'; as it is, you boast in your arrogant schemes; all such boasting is impure; if anyone, then, knows the goodness they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them;”
Let us look at another biblical verse in Mark 13:32: “But concerning that day or hour, no one knows, neither the Angels (Malakhim) in heaven, nor the Son (Chokmah/Filius), but only the Father (Kether/Pater)”; only the Heavenly Father knows the future; Father is Pater in Latin; Pater reminds us of the name Peter, or Petros, which also means rock; The rock also reminds of the stone, or the semen of man and woman;
The Ego lingers on either of these two poles: past or future;
The Ego that lives the past is living in a mental drama;
The Ego that lives in the future always worry;
The Ego morally hates the now;
The true awakening begins here in the now;
He who waits to truly awake is already a resident of the Abyss;
There is no putting aside for awakening for the time being; it is lamentably a waste of time;
Stop living in the past with your achievements or your psychological traumas; forget the former things in the past; never dwell in the past (from Isaiah 43:18); the sinning “I” likes to cling to the old, never wanting to die; he who identifies himself with the sinning “I” is a slave to it;
Stop worrying about the future; the sinning “I” always worries about the future and will struggle with its life to survive;
Time is Satanic; time itself is Satan;
This is where we learn to comprehend our past and future;
It is virtually impossible to undo the past, yet our dramas can be comprehended by our mere whip of willpower; that is all;
Our future can also be created and comprehended by our whip of willpower;
Be internally being present;
Live in the moment;
Live in the Now.
