Theo says, when questioned by me, that he is my teacher. This seems humorous to us both. How can this be, actually? What made me ask him and what made him tell me? I feel it is a matter of corresponding energy. An energy that is complete because there is nothing to communicate via the mind.

Before Theo, I had been using my mind to study truth forever. Yet nothing can be known by the mind that will change the heart. The heart reigns supreme.

So what he teaches me is beyond description, something the mind cannot hold onto or explain. It is, as they say, a mystery.

The media wants to interpret everything and so they speak of enlightened beings when there are none. There are just ordinary people seeking the extraordinary.

There is nothing the mind can hold onto at a certain point. At this point it must give way to not knowing.

So not knowing is better than knowing.

I am smiling again. Not for the first time nor for the last.

“Enlightenment is: absolute cooperation with the inevitable.”
