nothing is problematic

jenny holzer

 

The purpose and

result of quietly observing

the self is to forget the self. When

the mind is seen for what it is and

fascination with its activities

dissipates, reality, which

was always present,

appears.

 

It is at

this point that we

understand that nothing

is problematic and life

becomes thoroughly

enjoyable.

this brightly conscious lifespan

we all have the clear bright field

 

A horse strays

into a cave of lions. You move

deeper into your desire for sex, for art

and wealth. There will come a time when your

life is a blank, but has there ever really been a time

when human beings were not cared for? For thousands

of years we had no identity, yet we managed to arrive

in this amazing moment, this brightly conscious

lifespan. Who gave us such restlessness

to know and be?
