27.05.2001 - Interpretation of dali48
Our desire leads, together with the temporary nature of our lives, to pain - by longing for something that is in the future, we lose the experience of the present - When we grasp and hold it, it changes (see e.g. "love" etc. - d.48)... - When we move into the future or linger in the past, we give up the only true experience we can rely on: the present moment - Moreover, our satisfaction does not last - Joy does not come from the fact that we finally make the experience or win the object we were looking for - but from the diminution of desire, this brief moment before the next desire - While this moment fades, we try to hold on to it or repeat it - In the face of the fleeting nature of our existence, we try to keep control... - When we reach a goal or fulfill a desire, it changes - Change causes anxiety and pain, and we continue with our further search for satisfaction even more strongly to what we have accumulated so far... - The act had been done... - There was no going back; it was impossible to recapture the past (i.e. mindfulness about doing, speaking, thinking, etc. - d.48)... - Many people get a taste for their own death by almost fatal accidents... - by diseases... - by violence... - or by addictions (see cigarettes, alcohol etc. - d.48)... - When we stand before the last gate, we learn that, with the exception of suicide... - no one will have any control when and where death will occur - If we accept that our physical bodies die, then we recognize at a certain point that we will not be able to hold on to our possessions, roles, or relationships forever - We may be shocked by the insight that we do not possess our children - They are borrowed to us... - The fear of death and our unwillingness to acknowledge and accept it are often motivating factors for our attachment and our addictions...
