What is to 'be spiritual'? Spiritual is 'to be'

You are the cause of all problems in the cosmos
You are the cause of all problems in the cosmos. You cause it in two ways:
One is that you don't do anything about it, you judge, you evaluate and put people into boxes and sit back and watch the drama unfold. You don't want to be responsible for the bad in the world. You do nothing to eliminate the bad in the world.
Two is that your view of what is bad and good, creates the bad and good in the world. It is not what you see in the world that creates problems, it's how you see what's in the world. In reality bad or good do not exist. I repeat, in reality, good and bad do not exist. Your view of what is good or bad is what creates the good and bad in the world. Therefore, you are the root cause of all the problems in the entire cosmos. Please pause for a moment and reflect on this statement.
I'm not saying there are not challenges. On a spiritual path, the challenges that come are always bigger than what you can deal with. But a challenge is a challenge. A problem is what you view as being bad in a challenge. If you choose to stop viewing things as good and bad, you will be free from all problems in your life. The challenges will continue and you shall be able to face these challenges with greater fervour and confidence, knowing that you have the choice to turn them into a problem or not.
In order to create a world of peace, we must let go of our concepts of good and bad, our judgements and evaluations, and become proactive as individuals to help build bridges between all people of all communities, we must seek to give all people in the world the basics of food and shelter and we must treat Mother Earth gently as our own. Fundamentally however, to achieve these feats, how we see the world through our eyes must change. You and only you can make the choice to let go of your views about good and bad in the world and through your every step, smile and act of kindness, eliminate all the darkness in the world.
Sat Naam.
P.S. This post was written in a very particular and direct style of writing on purpose to test whether you turn even this post into a 'problem'. Did you? If you viewed this post as a bad, then this is because you're still living in the mode of good and bad. The mode is very subtle because it's the only way we've grown up to differentiate the world, so not to worry, even if you live in this mode it's not bad because good and bad do not exist in reality. Just accept it, and try to recognise it next time and a whole new world will open up for you.
