no one need do more than need be done to be and let be with choiceless awareness in this moment, quietly appreciating the miracle of being aware of being
this moment is the ever-changing present, a present any conscious being is aware of – like it or not
no one need be unaware of being so choicelessly aware
choiceless awareness is being aware of being, accepting the present here and now, just as it is,
with not one thought about it, “for there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so”
with not one thought about it, “for there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so”
no one need do more than need be done to be and let be with choiceless awareness in this moment, quietly appreciating the miracle of being aware of being
no one need want more than that none want more, that all may live and let live with love, compassion, joy, and equanimity

with choiceless awareness, being aware of being – in this moment, the ever-changing present – the observer is the observed … and in light of this, no longer under the spell of stories
“… choiceless awareness – at every moment and in all the circumstances of life – is the only effective meditation” / Aldous Huxley … in his foreword to Jiddu Krishnamurti’s The First and Last Freedom
“Do you want to know what my secret is? … I don’t mind what happens.” —Jiddu Krishnamurti
minding is dukkha; not minding, equanimity
dukkha arises and ceases with consciousness; equanimity, with meditation
effective meditation balances “dukkha with equanimity” – and arises and ceases with appamāda
dukkha with equanimity – the miracle of being aware of being in this moment, the ever-changing present
