Of what use is anger or love to something equal to a piece of wood?

The real problem is believing in the existence of a worthy or unworthy self in the first place. Worthy/unworthy or perfect/imperfect are equally false narratives. From the Buddhist point of view, there is no worthy or unworthy self.

Image – ‘All Things Must Pass' - by George Harrison - Album Cover

Sunrise doesn’t last all morning
A cloudburst doesn’t last all-day
Seems my love is up
And has left you with no warning
But it’s not always going
To be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
~ George Harrison [source: All Things Must Pass]

Image – ‘Rocko's Tacos’ - 24th Street, San Francisco, California, USA - June 2018

We’re embodied humans, not angels. If we didn’t ‘crave’ food, drink, sex and shelter, then we wouldn’t be here at all. If we didn’t seek intimate and other warm connections with each other, as well as insights into how our world works, stimulation of our higher senses, and better ways to live, then we wouldn’t lead meaningful human lives.

Right view encourages awareness of the results of what we do, awareness of sharing this world with others, and awareness of the importance of our inner, psychological realm over that of sense-contact.

The present moment is not defined solely by letting go of past and future, nor by accepting and appreciating what arises right now, but by choosing in this very moment how we make sense of the world.
