Why Self Acceptance Brings Causeless Peace

Everything you experience is an appearance within Awareness. Whether it’s a thought or a sensation or an image or a sound, it “appears” in you! What happens when you LOVE ALL appearances without prejudice? Meaning where before there was judgement, now there is only acceptance. Acceptance of what? Of Self.

Everything = You, so when you accept unconditionally ALL parts of yourself, you (as both the experience and the experiencer, i.e, both the outer and the inner world so to speak), feel a pure sense of peace and connectedness. The internal struggle, fighting, restlessness and turmoil, (dis-ease) that used to relentlessly dominant your present moment experience and cause much suffering is nowhere to be found… when this happens, a deep sense of “causeless” gratitude awakens in the heart spontaneously, effortlessly, and naturally. And all that’s left is silent awe.
