The Art of Remaining Awake
Maybe the real task is not waking others.
Maybe it is staying awake.
***
1% controls the world. 10% are corrupt. 80% are asleep. 9% get it, yet the 1% use the 10% to stop the 9% from waking up the 80%.
Sounds true? It isn’t.
You cannot wake people who are only pretending to be asleep, and half of that 80% is only pretending. The other 40% who are truly asleep need their rest, and some things are better left alone.
So what do the 9% do when there is no task in front of them? Nothing, except stay alert and make sure they do not fall asleep again. Because it is easy to stay awake around people who are awake, but much harder around people who dream, pretend, and pull others back to sleep.

And in the end, the task was never to wake the world, only not to fall asleep with it.

An invitation to rest in the quiet awareness beneath all doing, to simply be what is already whole.
