Always Now

The ego will always insist that it needs more time. But if your intention to evolve, to become enlightened, is more important to you than anything else, you won’t need time. If there is integrity in your spiritual aspirations, you will be ready now. Good intentions for the future only flatter the ego. When you’re serious, the time is always now. Unless you intend to do it now, you won’t do it. Evolutionary Enlightenment — which is the experience of consciousness beyond ego in a developmental context — only emerges when now is the only time that means anything to you.
