Deep in my heart, and rears its head;
Rich are its fruits: they joy dispense;
Transport the heart, and ravish sense.
In love's sweet swoon to thee I cleave,
Bless'd source of love . . .
- St. Francis of Asissi
Into Love's Furnace I am Cast
when you no longer mind what happens.

"If you throw a rock at something solid,
that solid thing will be damaged,
it will be hurt.
But if you throw a rock at air,
the air is not damaged nor hurt.
The air is unchanging.
Similarly,
if you realize your true nature of nothingness,
that nothingness is unchanging.
The peace that is that nothingness is unchanging.
Nothing can hurt it,
nothing can damage it.
It is beyond all form.
It is only when you are identified
with being a separate solid something,
that you feel hurt,
that you feel damaged.
And that is the nature of being a person.
A person can be hurt,
a person is vulnerable.
That is the way it is supposed to be.
You cannot make the person bullet proof.
But you can accept your own vulnerability.
If you can allow this person to be
completely as it is with all of its pains and hurts and damages,
then separation can dissolve
and you can realize the essence of what you are.
It is only when you try and protect
this sense of 'me' through maintaining
your are right,
through arrogance, violence, bitterness escaping the moment,
putting others down, building yourself up,
that life becomes a hell.
Because in this resistance,
you have separated yourself from life.
But when you allow this person
to be completely open and vulnerable to life,
then that appearance of solidity dissolves.
You drop right through this idea of yourself
into pure consciousness.
That is when you become air,
you realize you are the nothingness
that is pure peace.
And this peace that you are
is always here, always present.
Then it is simply a matter of keeping your attention
in this peace,
in this nothingness.
Accepting your own mortality
can help you realize that which you are
which is immortal.
