Everybody wants something, and for us advanced spiritual folks who somehow desire liberation, not wanting to want is also wanting something.
The state of not-wanting is reached by insight. Somehow, we are able to look through the illusionary attractiveness of becoming, realizing pleasure turns eventually into pain.
The power of now is curious. It’s a knowing that this is it, and nothing in the future or in the past comes close to it. Thoughts fizzle simply because they are understood as endless ripples on the surface.
How does one get to that state? It’s actually pretty simple. It’s the day when the living for the future or finding meaning in the past has outlived itself. Can you see the mental bubbles and see them pop?
