The Doorway
Can you lose your conditioning?
Are you aware of it?
You think “Here is water.”
But the word ‘water’ is from the past
And is someone else’s experience with ‘what is’ –
Not yours.
Can you touch
‘what is’
and see for yourself
what it is
without borrowing ideas from another?
Because what it is
Is actually
Ever-present
Ever-alive
Ever-changing
If
(and only if)
you do not dictate to it
from the past
from someone else’s experience –
if you do not stain it with these assigned attributes
present by your labeling.
Be present in the moment
And see ‘what is’.
It is the doorway.
