Beauty is Fundamentally Excellence.

What is beauty? Beauty is fundamentally excellence.
To find beauty in the world is to recognize a pure radiating excellence, an uncontaminated innocence; it is the blameless.
What is it to be beyond blame? To be beyond shame? It's not to be wrong. It's not to be right.
It is to be correct, to be correct in your thoughts in how you model reality in your mind such that you are awake enough to manifest the best possible future that "could be" but which is actually simultaneous with the life-timeline on which you currently traveling by choice of your uncountable decisions you make every day.
Every moment is the eternal present. There is notime else other than this moment, now alone.
In this moment now alone is discovered the unfathomable mystery of choice, this incredibly strange capacity to know we can choose between destinies which span a limitless spectrum of possibility. This is not a trivial matter. This fact of our immediate experience is of profound and urgently important significance.
So to be beyond being wrong in some way in thinking, articulation or action is the way to blamelessness.
The blameless are the innocent, and it is the innocent that shine with a radiance that is undeniable and completely obvious to those others that are also blameless. Do not confuse this state of blamelessness with psychopathy or sociopathy. The innocent are the non-guilty. They are not blameless because they are insane and have no conscience. It is precisely because they choose to persist to remain awake in this one and only eternal moment that they wield responsibility to inject meaning and love into the world by committing to the correct, not the wrong, not the right, but devoting themselves to the correct, which is essentially identical with an imperishable love for truth.
What is true is the beautiful. Truth, beauty, innocence, blamelessness, correctness, excellence.
What is beautiful is the correct in truth, the sole worship of the blameless.
You cannot be guilty as long as you are eternally choosing to awaken from the dark dreams of fear that have haunted your soul forever.
There is no end. There is no beginning. There is only choosing in this one eternal moment that simultaneously is unfolding one of an infinite range of possible to manifest destinies so incomprehensibly vast to the mind it can easily be forgotten. All those possible futures are simultaneously existing with the present circumstance in which you find yourself. By instrumentality of choice you select which timeline that currently exists at this only moment which you have to decide or not decide, and choosing not to decide is still deciding anyhow.
Devote yourself as much as you are able, as much as you can, and as much as you are willing to the pursuit of the most true, the most beautiful, and the most good. The only way to become a buddha is not to decide to do so. You just do it.
You will be aware you are choosing at first, but you will learn to choose so well that you won't notice yourself doing it.
That is going beyond trying. There is no try; but do, or do not.
The skill of choosing correctly and naturally is what shines as excellence as it is increasingly mastered.
That is why beauty is fundamentally excellence, because in the excellence is the mastery of having transcended choice and hesitation.
You have regained awareness of Now and have refound the Flow.
No longer is there any doubt as to what is the correct action.
Right seeing, right action. No lack of attention, no wrong action.
