Don't try to change the world. First, change yourself or rather, your self-perception, and you find the world automatically corresponding to the level of your understanding.

There is a presence, a silence, a stillness which is here by itself. There is no doer of it, no creator of this stillness. It is simply here in you, with you. It is the fragrance of your own self. There is nothing to do about this, it is naturally present. This fragrance of peace, this spaciousness, it is the fragrance of your own being.

You cannot be anything that you point to.

Mainly we obsess on fixing or pacifying the mind. I simply ask you to observe it from a place of neutrality.
Mooji
Image
Mind and body have taken the journey, but the real home place is your own heart. It is infinite and so wherever you go, you are always Home.

Just as you wash your hands before eating, clear your mind before engaging with the world.
