Inspiration

Inspiration is the key to everything. Without it nothing ever changes. Inspiration is like a force that gets applied to an object and propels it in a new direction.
The question science, religion, philosophy, etc, are trying to answer is this: “what is the inspiration behind this creation?”
I know that I exist. That is the only indisputable fact. Everything else is relative. “You” are relative. “This world” is relative. “My thoughts” are relative. “My knowing” of my existence is absolute.
Seeing a table is relative, because it depends on sense organs and a mind. Knowing that something is there is absolute.
The questions regarding me are: “Who am I?” “How did I get here?” “What am I doing here?”
The question regarding the table is: “What is it?” “How did it get here?” “What is it doing here?”
Questions like these are inspiring to me. They cause me to us my mental energies to explore the mystery of existence.
I listen, I read, I meditate, I write. Those are the means of my exploration.
And then, whatever I produce must provide inspiration, otherwise I am wasting creation’s “time.”
