No Belief

"I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything. It is not the object that matters to me, but what is in-between them..."

- George Braque

Wow! George Braque said alot in three short sentences. He made three incredibly important points:

1) Belief is not essential to life; it is optional.
2) Objects don't matter.
3) It is the "in-between" that is of ultimate importance.

Beliefs are not reality. They are merely an adolescent form of wishful thinking. To be fully alive, believe in nothing and live totally in the reality of what is.

Stuff is just stuff. None of it matters. It is at best the window dressing of life.

In between all objects, all people, all thoughts is pure Nothingness, pure Spirit. To experience Spirit, we must give up all attachment to both beliefs and objects. We must "fall into the gap" between each and every thing and relax into life.

That's it. A Cliff's Notes version of the spiritual path. Detachment and surrender. You're alive, you're One, you're home.

So, try it out today. Let your beliefs go. Focus between, rather than on, things. Let the gaps between your thoughts grow. "Let go and grow" can be your simple mantra for the day. Don't believe me! Try it and see what happens.
