You don't edit; you build anew from the ashes of the dead and gone, from the ashes of the unchangable past

Post by Eckhart Aurelius Hughes »

First, decide to unconditionally and fully accept what you cannot change.

Then, realize you cannot really change anything. Time and change are both illusions.

You never really step in the same river twice, you never really interact with the same human twice, and you never really see the same human in the mirror twice. The only sense in which two humans or two rivers are really the same is the sense in which all of everything ever is timelessly one and transcends all duality in using the illusional duality of time vs space.

The past and external present cannot be changed at all. Insofar as you have any control over aspects of the future, the future still cannot be changed, but rather you get to help create it.

Once you make a choice or help create a moment, it's already in your past, and cannot be changed.

You never really change creation, you just make your creation how you want it to be from the get-go.

There's a great freedom in seeing it as death and rebirth rather than change. You don't edit; you build anew from the ashes of the dead and gone, from the ashes of the unchangable past

Every aspect of holistic eternal timeless reality as a whole is either to be lovingly accepted as something you control, and is thus exactly how you choose for it to be, or lovingly accepted as something that cannot be changed and is inexorably and eternally exactly the way it is, not just within the illusion of time but also in the realer truer eternal sense outside of time and space.

My entire political philosophy summed up in one tweet.

"The mind is a wonderful servant but a terrible master."

I believe spiritual freedom (a.k.a. self-discipline) manifests as bravery, confidence, grace, honesty, love, and inner peace.

The importance of letting go of the past and creating new possibilities. We cannot edit the past, but we can learn from it and use it as a foundation for building a better future. By embracing the power of creation, we can break free from the limitations of the past and shape our own destiny. As they say, experience is the best teacher.

Creating anew from the remnants of the past is a transformative process, a rebirth that acknowledges the value of what was while embracing the potential of what can be. It's a powerful perspective that allows growth and evolution to emerge from the inevitable changes and challenges of life.
