Do not look, for you miss the simpler, more arresting truth. You are already at the next stage, one more difficult to parse and process. Do not find it difficult for you are already at the next stage, suffering and salvation are one and the same, you already knew this in one way.

Hope allows us to continue striving every day. Another word for hope is delusion. Another word for hope is love. There is nothing wrong with it; there is no need to drop it, though there is no need to continue holding on either.

Do not make your peace with suffering that you are doing something about it. Out of that perpetually deferable sense things can be made ok. Do not make peace with nature of suffering by saying you are in fight with it. Only this is heroism without reference point.

Found that psychedelics center, channel that boddhisatva, do it anyway, but make your peace with samsara otherwise, not out of hope, but despite lack of it. For every starfish you throw into the ocean, two more will be born.
