Nothing personal


"Virtually everything that happens has nothing to do with your conscious intent. Your food is digested, metabolized, and distributed throughout your body without your volition. Your heart beats, your breath swells, even your thoughts occur spontaneously, like dreams throughout the day, and then disappear without your interference. Your life is an assemblage of arising processes, and your awareness is more or less along for the ride."
David Deida
