The question often arises, "Should I take the world seriously?"
The answer is yes and no.
There is no standard answer.
As long as you believe you are a body, a mind, an entity, then the
world becomes very real to you.
But when you investigate, when you intelligently begin to search within yourself, you begin to realize that the world is very changeable, it is never the same, things often change.
As a matter of fact the only thing permanent in life is change.
How could something be real that is changeable?
You say a tree is real. If the tree were real it would remain the same forever, but it started from a seed.
You would say the seed is real. How long is the seed real?
Until it begins to break apart and the tree begins to grow.
Then the seed is no longer real. When the tree is small you say that's a real tree, yet when you come back twenty years from now it's a gigantic tree.
It's altogether different.
It's growing apples or peaches or whatever.
It's no longer the same little tree that seemed incompetent, and wasn't able to grow anything.
So you say that now the tree is real because it's bearing apples.
You come back in another twenty years, the tree is dried out.
It cannot bear apples.
This is true of everything, including your body.
You came from a seed, the seed turned into a baby, the baby turned into a teenager, and now you're your own ugly self.
What are you?
Are you a baby? Are you a teenager?
Are you an adult?
Are you an ugly self?
Are you handsome?
All these conceptions are erroneous.
You are none of these things, and the reason you appear to suffer and have so called problems in this world is because you take life too seriously.
You have your own dogmatic opinions of what should be right and wrong, what's good, what's bad.
How things ought to be.
If anyone interferes with your belief system you become mad, you become angry, you fly off the handle.
(That's an expression, fly off the handle. How can you fly off the handle? {Laughter})

One of the most dangerous assumptions to make is that just because something or someone seems really official/important/serious/professional (medical school, hospitals, doctors, people in suits, organizations) means that they know what they are talking about.
Your health is safest in your own hands.

Someone, something, anything, anyone to blame for their current condition.โฃ

Opportunistic salesmen are pleased to sell you scapegoats and you are pleased to purchase.โฃ

This scapegoat will bring you great relief, but you should know that this is a โdeal with the devilโ.โฃ
