MARCEL PHILIPPE POETRY
INSIGHTS
Life is an opportunity to find Freedom (enlightenment). It is the very reason we are here.
Having had a good life or a bad life is irrelevant in light of the eternal.
Identification with the 'I' or 'me' is the cause of all suffering.
Personalities and characters are complex and infinite versus the simple purity and joy of Beingness.
Getting what I want or don't want is irrelevant to the Beingness.
The mind, by its very nature can never be satisfied. It has to run, to move. That's how it works. In the silence and stillness of the now - where true satisfaction lies - the mind cannot exist.
In the state of Being, all movements become sacred.
Life is in constant flux, cycling between prosperity and mal-fortune. The key of the highest state is to remain in the 'unchanging', impervious to the dynamics of fortune.
