Groundlessness is the largest truth we come to through years of meditation. We avoid groundlessness by pushing away and grasping throughout our life. Mental activity is our way out. We indulge in planning, constantly trying to get somewhere, believing that once we arrive it will stay that way. We are wired to do everything we can to gain predictability and familiarity. It is how we seek happiness. Instead of locking into a plan, can we rest in spaciousness? Fear can be destabilizing. Can we abide in the fear with interest and curiosity rather than filling the space with habitual patterns that take you out of the present moment? When we avoid the groundlessness of life we miss out on the freedom it brings.
