Your enlightenment card got declined. The universe rejects your application for cosmic unemployment benefits while you sit cross-legged on unwashed laundry. You heard there’s no doer, no free will, so you decided to transform into furniture...
Good catch, Ed! Indeed it should! For sure, the "free won't" deserves equal billing in the illusion department. The mind loves to claim ownership of what it doesn't do even more than what it does. "Look at me NOT eating that cake!" But when you look for the controller of either action or inaction, the search comes up empty. Both "will" and "won't" are just different magic tricks performed by the same non-existent magician. Cheers!🎭
“Wu wei means action without the friction of self importance” ❤️….. also love the analogy of a flowing river vs a stagnant puddle claiming stillness. 🙏
"You heard there’s no doer, no free will" Shouldn't free won't be included??

Glad that river analogy landed! Cheers! 🎭
