The Power and Nuance of Intention

Intention can be both a powerful tool for awakening and a potential hindrance depending on how it is approached. The desire for spiritual enlightenment often leads to a contradictory situation where the quest for awakening can obstruct the very realization being sought. To navigate this complexity, it's essential to recognize that true awakening occurs in the present moment, detached from future desires or expectations. Therefore, understanding the balance between effort and presence becomes crucial to harnessing intention effectively without falling into the trap of excessive seeking.
