Both past and future are but illusions, mere phantoms birthed by the wanderer mind. They are echoes and whispers, devoid of the tangible solidity of the present moment. We become the masters of time, not by traversing its illusory breadth, but by plunging into the depth of the present moment.
Just as the mighty edifice requires a firm foundation to withstand the trials of time and tempest, our focus too rests upon three essential pillars: clarity, intention, and perseverance. Together, they form the bedrock of our purposeful existence, lending strength and direction to our pursuits.
In the now, the wanderer mind finds a purpose. Like a wayward ship finally dropping anchor in a tranquil bay, it experiences respite. The now, the simple reality of what is, serves as a beacon, illuminating the path for the wanderer. When the mind ceases to roam and learns to reside in the present, it finds itself not in a barren wasteland, but in a fertile ground where the seeds of intention can be sown, where the fruits of action can be reaped.
