Listen to the Batman . . .
The sage has said, "If you're too busy to spend a few
minutes in daily meditation, then make that an hour."
* “In the state of mindfulness, your mind should look at
both its going and staying. Other than that there is nothing else to cultivate.
It suffices if awareness recognizes the nature of everything that arises. Apart
from this you do not need to search somewhere else for more quality or
clarity.… Don’t put aside what you have and look elsewhere for what you don’t
have. Just watch the identity of awareness, no matter what it thinks or where
it goes. Don’t give importance to whether the awareness is clear or not. Avoid
stopping thought movement and pursuing stillness. Whatever stillness there is
and no matter what arises, just sustain their natural flow at their own pace,
without tainting it with alterations. Without allowing yourself to forget
undistracted mindfulness even for a moment, persevere in maintaining its
prevalence.”
I’m quoting this from . . . The Royal Seal of Mahamudra,
Volume One: A Guidebook for the Realization of Coemergence by Khamtrul Rinpoche

Takes some doing.
You are it here and now, but your vision is obstructed
by your false ideas about your self.
~ Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Sometimes it takes some "lip service" to cut through
the lip service.
Because striving doesn't get you nowhere.
Batman channels Sankaracharya. Full on Advaita Vedanta mode.
Batman's cuts the spiritual mumbo-jumbo.
Robin gets his goose cooked. Seasoned with Zen spice.
The end, and the beginning.
