Regardless of what the mind thinks and believes and identifies itself as this and not that, and what the mind thinks and believes and identifies others as this and not that, all and everyone are selfless and impermanent.
Regardless of what are the different qualities that exist in the different names and forms, all and everything are selfless and impermanent.
Regardless of what the mind thinks and believes and judges as good or bad, right or wrong, kind or unkind, selfish or unselfish, positive or negative, meaningful or meaningless, strong or weak, common or uncommon, normal or abnormal, ordinary or extraordinary, healthy or unhealthy, knowledgeable or non-knowledgeable, educated or uneducated, talented or untalented, happiness or unhappiness, joy or sorrow, pleasant or unpleasant, agreeable or disagreeable, enjoyment or suffering, living beings or non-living objects, sentient or non-sentient, intelligent or non-intelligent, wise or ignorant, perfect or imperfect, egoistic or selfless, passionate or dispassionate, peaceful or restless, gain or loss, deserving or non-deserving, holy or unholy, pure or impure, 'unbreakable' or fragile, and so on, all and everything are selfless and impermanent.
Keep performing the same inquiry towards all and everything, from ancient until the present, regardless of whether it's something from within the same category or it's something among the many different categories, all and everything are selfless and impermanent. All are arising/forming, changing/decaying, and passing away/disintegrating.
Keep inquiring until the mind starts to see beyond all kind of different qualities in all kind of names and forms that appear to be distinct and separated from one another, as well as names and forms that appear to be having the same uniform quality with the same name and form, where the mind sees only the one same nature of all and everything, which is, selfless and impermanent.
The sense of separateness will disappear from the mind as it is.
This mind will be void of discrimination, or hatred, or intimidation towards any names and forms.
This mind will respect all kind of names and forms being what they are, as they are, and they are changing, slowly or rapidly.
There's no sense of loneliness in this mind.
All and everyone and everything that the mind likes and dislikes, agrees and disagrees with, loves and doesn't love, are changing and passing away, eventually, slowly, rapidly, or suddenly.
There's no grief or painful sorrow.
There's neither meaningfulness nor meaninglessness.
Be free.
Just by coming in contact with the teachings about non-separateness, and intellectually 'understand' about non-separateness, but if without direct experience and realization towards non-separateness, the mind will still be determined by the different qualities of names and forms that the mind likes or dislikes, agrees or disagrees with under the influence of ignorance and egoism, attaching and identifying with certain qualities of names and forms as 'I', where the mind unwittingly comparing, judging and expecting itself and all and everything based on the particular thinking, belief, values and practice that it upholds and feels proud of, that generates the sense of separateness between 'I' and all the others that are not 'I', that are different from 'I' and are contradicting with 'I' and 'my', and hence, naturally, there's discrimination, aversion, rejection, hatred and intimidation arise in the mind towards what the mind dislikes and disagrees with, based on the particular thinking, belief, values and practice in the mind, that it upholds and feels proud of, which also influences the mind thinking and believing itself and others are somehow deserving or not deserving certain things, reactions, treatments, or experiences.
Upon the vanish of the sense of separateness, there's neither deserving nor non-deserving this or that.
This is contradicting with all the different kinds of thinking, beliefs, values and practices in the world, where although they are distinct from one another, they have the similar values about being proud of and protective/defensive towards their own particular thinking, belief, values and practice, and there's deserving and non-deserving, as well as judgment and expectation towards themselves and all the others, based on what their thinking, belief, values and practice judges and refers as good and bad, right and wrong, positive and negative, meaningful and meaningless, and so on.
It's everyone's freedom for their own thinking, belief, values and practice, for all their desire and don't desire, action and reaction.
Those who are not interested in yoga or practicing yoga, they don't need to perform this inquiry.
Be happy.
