Why do we aspire to awaken? What is the purpose of awakening itself?
When we aspire to awaken, we have discovered numerous reasons to do so. It might be that we no longer wish to be trapped by cyclic existence. It might be that we no longer wish to be embroiled in the nonsensical and painful affairs of the world. It might be that we simply wish to remove this eternal suffering and angst from our lives.
Certainly, there is no other way to bring benefit to the world in any lasting way. There is also no other way to remove ourselves from this trap of cyclic existence. We must awaken. In order to awaken, we must find ways to not remain prone to distraction and the petty annoyances of life. We must decide that awakening is the only way to overcome this world of suffering, then nurture our focus, as well as our Spiritual Practice.
Please value your precious opportunity that you have in this life to awaken. Then, as you increase the potentiality to awaken, take that next step. Awaken. Everything will be revealed and you will have unlimited potentiality, as it was meant to be from beginningless beginnings.
Blessings in Light,
Lama Robert
