True Equanimity is a rare condition, I have met perhaps 3 or 4 people who may live this condition on a daily basis. It has certainly become the deepest aspiration of my life, it is one thing that always makes perfect sense to me
On a really good, blessed day, I awake in the morning and notice there is no fundamental problem at the root or base of life. The navel center just naturally hangs open, as it should when there is no knot cramping the living being. There is a deep pleasurable sense of life moving through the body, but more than this there is a deep rooted ease I articulate this Equanimity as “no dilemma” (first coined by Adi Da in “The Knee Of Listening”)
This is not however a self-attained state, its a blessing given in the company of my Guru, Adi Da Samraj via my daily life of practice. When I notice this marvel, it seems very natural, very embodied, cetainly not an other worldly condition
It certainly feels potentially to be the next step in the evolution (?) of mankind but that may be just a peculiar notion of mine
It certainly beats the crap out of what (from this position) looks like a driven, compulsive and addicted life (conventional living)
To be honest Equanimity just described, is very fragile, the tests of each day almost invariably rob me of it by days end, or often much sooner It has however grown stronger over time, more tangible, but it remains a practice rather than something always available.
