Doom Boom Gloom

Many stories of human endeavour upon deeper investigation reveal the following qualities:

1. Entrapment and suffering.
2. Catch-22.
3. Impending deluge, death.

The mind's conclusions are often much more severe than what actually unfolds.

"Learn to look without analysis, conclusions". Nisargadatta Maharaj.

Even the 3 points mentioned above are nothing more than a perspective. Situations are as they are. It's our mental projections into the future that judge these situations.

Anything, if looked at through the 'Mental Lens' of the future, or past, is at the risk of appearing morbid or negative.
