Obviously, traffic has been my theme lately. I started writing about it, and the Law of Attraction is bringing it to my attention more and more. That's OK with me, because there are lots of lessons to learn in traffic.
While I was on the freeway this evening, I was thinking about yesterday's koan, and attaining enlightment on the freeway.
What would enlightment on the freeway feel like? I think that first, it would feel like absolute safety. If you're enlightened, you don't have to worry about what anyone else is doing. Their actions can't affect you. So, if they cut in front of you, or start to come into your lane, you can bless them and let them go, with no emotional involvement whatsoever.
Other than safety, I think someone who is driving an enlighted path is peaceful, calm, and relaxed. An enlighted driver doesn't need to rush, because they always arrive at the perfect time.
And, beyond that, I believe we can reach a level of bliss, even while driving in heavy traffic. I've been there, and I intend to reach for bliss more and more often as I'm driving. Maybe traffic will end up being my favorite part of the day.
