Supporting Non-Duality and Awakening in Asheville and Beyond

PERPETUAL DISTRACTION

We are constantly encouraged

to live a life

punctuated by distraction.

Perpetually distracted,

we slip-slide toward a life

devoted to the delusional,

constantly avoiding our discomforts,

constantly empowering our choices,

with preferences that attempt to preserve

a secure sense-of-self.

And, we convince ourselves

that this insular

navigation-via-avoidance

will bring about the vitality

of a life well-lived.

We spin our own webs,

disoriented by this maze of our delusion,

till we realize a life lived in programmed avoidance,

cultivates and perpetuates separation, fear and anxiety,

damping down the flow of life,

stifling the essential cycle of fire - destruction - rebirth,

so essential to our inner growth and evolution.
