These wildflowers and bushes look insignificant to us. What is the meaning of their mere existence?
Most of the time, we always feel that our existence is more important than wildflowers, bushes, grasses. Most of the time, I think that I am smart, that I am doing something meaningful for others, I am doing something important for the betterment of others and even for the planet! How crazy.
But luckily most of the time, small insignificant creatures like these flowers and bushes remind me also, how insignificant also my existence is. Their genius tells me that whenever I think that I am smart, I'm actually is the biggest fool. Whenever I think that I am important, in reality, I am as trivial as a blade of grass.
Only when I am stupid, the stupidest, then I can truly be amazed, appreciate and wonder life as it is.
If I am smart, and I have all the answers to life in my head, in my books, in my scripture, in my gurus, in my gods, in my scientific calculation, then life is always meaningless and lifeless.
I am grateful that each day, I have a myriad chance to always back to the present moment, to realize how stupid I am, how insignificant and unimportant my life is, and at the same time amazed by life's miracles that happen in every moment. In every breath, in each positive and negative emotions, sweet and bitter moment, each anger and laughter. Everything is a wonder, a blessing, when you realize that you are nobody, you are stupid and unimportant.
Thank you for the biggest lesson, wildflowers & bushes. Thank you for the insight @sadhguru 🙏❤️
