Touching Reality With Your Whole Body

Religion acts like a comfortable duvet, a cozy bed that we find ourselves into one night after the other.
This is effective and allows the man who curls up there to cover himself with serenity, to engulf himself in a narrowed sphere where peace becomes accessible.

Yet, he can only enter spirituality once he gets out of the duvet, gets off the bed and lies down on the floor, in a vibrant call for truth, authenticity.
Feeling reality with your whole body, and let nothing dampen the sheer effect of gravity.

If after a few minutes, a few hours, you come back to the duvet and mattress, it is because you are not ready for the spiritual experience and remain satisfied with the short term and artificial appeasement allowed by religious practices.
It is because superficial joy or cheap emotional manifestations suit you.

If you maintain your position on the ground throughout inner turbulence, if you stick to the cold and the dark of the night,

You’re in on biggest journey one can ever have, you’re a consciousness rider who wishes to go beyond the psycho-socio-cultural frameworks

Family history, and views of society no longer have any influence on you,
Still you do not reject them, but they cannot constitute a point of reference, a reliable demarcation for true identity.

The adventurer in you has woken up and won’t go back to sleep.

You have embarked on a quest beyond time and space and joined the community of beings on the path to truth.
