Synthesized from Source definition
It’s normal to want both to live and to rest forever; seeing both clearly helps you find the quiet you that is beyond them.
Why this matters practically
- Normalizes cycles of zest and weariness, easing fear and guilt.
- Encourages balance: enjoy life while cultivating dispassion and non-attachment.
- Directs you to meditation to realize the self beyond both drives.
