Doing is the effect, not the cause
Like the flora and fauna that surrounds us, led forward by instinctual doing, but more importantly, in a state of graceful rest otherwise, each of us needs to reconnect and re-learn that state of grace.
We define what happiness and sorrow is from a narrow vantage point; and we believe we have all the answers, and ignore what is in front of us.
Let us let go of such vanity, shed the future and the past and realize the sacredness of our being. This being is silent, it is still. It speaks only when it needs to. This is a state of grace.
The mind loves action, drama - anything to strengthen its sense of self. But you can observe this, see it for what it is - and in that moment, the mind returns to your service, ready to obey your command.
Once the state of graceful rest, the beingness is realized - your future course of action is charted for you. No, you will not be given all the answers for all time to come - but you will know what you need to do now. And it is accompanied with a joy and enthusiasm that you cannot explain - for it comes from beyond the realm of the mind - it comes from the realm of the sacred.
Doing is the effect of Being.
