There is much to be enjoyed here in this realm of duality and time, many pleasurable experiences and worthwhile endeavors. But there is something greater that is ours to know and to keep forever if we would but claim it. It does not exist in the realm of time but in the silent realm of stillness, the present moment eternally unfolding.
It is within this eternal Now that our temporary experiences and pleasures have their brief existence. We can still enjoy earthly delights as they come, but as we approach the still and shining ocean of bliss that is our true being and consciousness, the importance of pursuing anything else pales by comparison.
