Pre-School Book Report

"No delusion, no enlightenment"—only when you have arrived at such a state are you comfortable and saving energy to the maximum degree. . .what is there deluding you twenty-four hours a day? You must apply this to yourself and determine on your own. . . sitting meditation and concentration do not amount to inner freedom. . . Think about it independently. Other people do not know what you are doing all the time; you reflect on your own—are you in harmony with truth or not? Here you cannot be mistaken; investigate all the way through.

Maybe a pre-school book Report would be an easier ask. How about 25 words on how you're feeling right now?

Can you surmount a baby step?
