The holy scriptures of both bygone kingdoms and modern societies talk of "birthright" ...yet the gods still deny us the full rights to it. Yes, heaven is good. Yes, salvation is also good...I guess. (I still don't know what I needed to be saved" from") ((apparently "myself"[?])) Nevertheless, our religious leaders talk of that which will be given to us in the hereafter as if it cannot be obtained here. You see, I've always had a problem with putting off until tomorrow what can be done today. Since the notion of divine salvation is in the realm of belief and faith, that's fine, I got that going for me... ...but I have to wait 20, 30, 60, maybe even 80 years for that? People always talk about how life is so short, yet those are some of the selfsame people who drag themselves into work day in and day out who stare at a slow clock for 8 hours a day until they can finally blow the popsicle stand of some Mickey Mouse job. Despite anything else, no matter how "long" or "short" this life may be, there is always constant motion. Constant activity. We work with all the things that come into our life at every moment. Good things or bad things, there is always something to interact with. There are hardly any moments when we can just be totally quiet and still; even in meditation it is a constant battle to keep both your body and mind focused. When you are constantly moving there is no time to stop and wait. You do what you can to get the desired result out of the situation. Why can't "salvation" be the same? Why must we wait until the hereafter for eternal bliss? Why must we die in order to live? I don't think it's necessary to do so. We can make a heaven for us right here and now. How to do it? simple... ...declare that you and your surroundings is your heaven. There is no mantra, no tantra, no scripture reading, no knowledge of vector calculus, necessary. There is quite simply nothing to do for it; if you want it you have it. The only problem that will keep you from getting what you want are the exasperations that it is "too simple" to do, and of course then you wont do it. The belief in yourself is the truest faith that you can have. You are the only one blocking your path. When you release your inhibitions nothing can stop you. Not even the sky's the limit.
