What is growth?

Great Work

Knowledge is power.

Or so we are led to believe.

Your mind seeks to analyze, understand, and fit life into neat mental frameworks. This is useful, but knowledge alone won’t make you grow, because it never leaves the thinking mind.

If you want to truly grow, you must also learn to seek truth.

Truth is found when you let go. You stop clinging to your preferences and let life be your guide.

  • You don’t need to control outcomes.
  • You don’t need to always have an opinion.
  • You don’t need to have everything make sense with your mind.

Our greatest understanding doesn’t come from thinking. It comes from the quiet mind that goes beyond thought.

Do not reject your intellect. Go beyond it instead.

Surrender to the unfolding of life, and let your curiosity yearn for truth, because there you’ll find clarity and something far greater than the mind.

That is where your greatest growth lies.
