Absence of that that we do not want is happiness itself
We often overlook absence of something undesirable, our minds focusing on the next thing, next goal, forgetting that absence of something undesirable has been our goal in the first place and is hence an important part of our happiness. Take … Continue reading
I float on the thin film of an illusion that we call reality.
I am empty but not in a bad way. I donât need to be anyone or anywhere anymore, I donât have goals or projects, I still wonder about purpose occasionally but I accepted not knowing. I is the source of … Continue reading

It takes some training to equate complete letting go with comfort. But in fact, ânothing to hold on toâ is the root of happiness. Thereâs a sense of freedom when we accept that weâre not in control⌠This may lead … Continue reading

The Emptiness Survival Kit is finally here. Happy positive disintegration!
How is your June going, fellow nomads? I am dealing with the opposite of empty. We have received a call and are hosting a Ukrainian refugee family. That required quite a bit of prep and paperwork. Suddenly there are 3 … Continue reading
The self-help advice I actually need
I am tired of the mainstream self help advice. I am tired of being told I need goals, better goals, different goals, more commitment, more discipline, more faith, more trust, better routine, better structure, new framework. I am told to … Continue reading
âIn the end, one reverses all viewsâ
As I age, I realise that there is no such thing as absolute truth – only points of view. There is no black and white âright and wrongâ. Just shades of âdependsâ. The more I know the more I realise … Continue reading
Just another dust cycle
I think about the melodrama of my life, the so called problems that seem so solid, real and long-lasting, and words that someone told me ring in my mind: âWe will all be dust at the end of it.â It … Continue reading
The Emptiness Mantra
I read about this mantra in one of the books about Buddhism. I instantly had to look it up. Now it is my daily companion reminding me âto keep coolâ, to remember, to see beyond phenomena and people behaviours. Om … Continue reading

Goodbye, the winter of the soul. Blessed, we sing a song to spring.
Last year was hard. Many of my friends are mystics or psychonauts, both of which often come with existential crises, dark nights of the soul, depression and unemployment. As the social roles and identities fall off, the soul reawakens and … Continue reading
Five Hindrances – going beyond emptiness

The light of the void. The void of the light #RamDassMusic
Where do you stand in relation to hope? Are you hopeful? Or is it hopeless? Both of them are traps. Best place to stand is half way between hope and hopelessness. Standing nowhere, being everywhere. Doing what you do. — … Continue reading
