Peace comes from lack of fear, and lack of fear comes from continuously inhabiting the reality of that you're afraid of; incorporate your pain as an ongoing part of you, and you will be fearless

Inhabit any polarity; become an identity while also becoming it's opposite; be both the student and the teacher, the idiot and the genius, the weak and the strong, the enlightened and unenlightened. Become unafraid of both insult and crown

Become familiar with the sensation of thought, the visceral felt experience of holding a belief, like moving an object in your fingers. Experience your belief as dance, as a expression; loosen your grasp on it as a tool to control - what are you afraid of?

Stop thinking. Don't stop thinking. Change your relationship to thinking. Step outside your relationship to thinking. Stop taking orders from me. Stop listening to me. Stop stopping doing things. Get seriously confused. Confusion induces helplessness; it's good to be helpless.

Become an asshole. Be bad, be evil. Be literally hitler. How can you become infinite and transcendent without also being literally hitler?

Don't think you know. Don't think, you know!
The things we think we know are invisible to us, like a room you've lived in forever. So stop knowing. Know less, know nothing. Every word you speak is a lie. Everything your mind grasps is sand.

It’s less correct to say peace comes from a lack of fear, more correct to say peace comes from an abundance of power.

power is lack of fear is power; lack of fear is helplessness, is lack of fear; become the polarity of power and helplessness

Similarly, suffering is not pain, it is the dwelling on pain. Either in anticipation, or in attempts to avoid, or in fixating on past pains. A headache can be the end of the world if it becomes the totality of your existence, vs just a part.
