I look outward at The World... as seldom as possible, and... absolutely delighted that I don't have to do anything about it. It's like Chinese handcuffs. Meddling with The World is similar to what monkeys run into when they get their hand stuck holding an avocado... or a mango in a jar. It's usually the thing you are after that causes you to get trapped, and... your inability to let go which keeps you there.
It is very difficult to convince people what the cause of their situation is. It seems that... only when the suffering gets to a certain level... somewhere about DEFCON 3... that they will listen to you. With all the information about The Killer Vaccines... the pollutants that cause Cancer... the parts of town and the internet to be avoided... people neither see nor hear.
The key is not to want anything and... to take what comes to you; not failing to be discriminating about it... whatever it is. If you don't want anything... it separates you from 95+% of The World right from the get-go. Your life is instantly less crowded. Fewer people talk to you. You fail to be associated with countless items of various levels of desirability that people compete for. Because you are not contending with anyone... no one is contending with you.
After a while... most people don't even see you anymore.
