The Koan of your Life

The Koan of your Life

One way to approach “The Meaning of Life” question is to assume that you are a Koan. You are the Koan of your life.

I mean this as in that the deepest part of your life, the deepest challenge for you as a human being (in its totality on this planet Earth), is that you are a walking talking living Koan. A mystery of contradictions and unsolvable riddles

Most likely it is also the one thing you avoid the most.

To put it in a more positive way: if you're looking for the meaning of your life, then it is to find the Koan that your life is.

So you are a walking, living, thinking, sleeping, eating, talking and whatsoever .. you in your completeness is in itself an alive Koan. A Koan from within.

And it is your Koan and it is for you to dissolve. (Given that Koans per definition are not solvable. But they can be dissolved.)

Part of my work, my service for you, is to share my Koan. There will be some people on this planet that have similar enough Koans that they can resonate with my Koan.

You could then be supported from my work on solving my Koan.

Here it comes

Whether I can, or not, I am always right.

That's a bit of a Koan, a bit of a mystery ..

So whether I can do something, be something, when there is a deeper “Yes, I can”, then I actually can!

But at the same time, and “at the same time”, the wording “same time” is part this mystery here, that's the yin and the yang, that's the polarities, the extremes of AT THE same time ..

weather I can not, as in deeply knowing I cannot do this, I AM RIGHT.

I WILL ALWAYS BE RIGHT.

So I’m always right, right? And to some people this is going to be like “what are you talking about? of course, that’s simple!”.

Well, it’s simple to you you - but not to me.

Somewhere in the Bible there is a part about going through the eye of the needle. Going through the mystery, the unsolvable mystery of your own Koan, you’re going through a much much smaller, infinitely much smaller hole than an eye of a needle.

It's also why this dissolving of the Koan is awakening work, an awakening process. There is no space for an “I”, as in the “I” of a personalised individualised ego-self, that can come through that infinitely small eye of the needle.

That is the essence of the mystery, of the extreme polarities of you as a walking, living, breathing Koan.

So this is my invitation to you. Have a look at this mystery of your life. The Koan of your life. If my Koan resonates with you, then we might do something together.

Whether I can or not, I am always right.
