Life is not a problem to be solved, it is a mystery to be lived.

Life [...] is not a problem, so why are you asking for a solution?

Life is a Mystery, not a problem waiting to be solved.

Life is not a problem to be solved,
it's a mystery to be lived.

Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.

the mystery of life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.

The mystery of life is not a problem to be solved but a reality to be experienced.

First, we must be very clear that you and the speaker are treating life not as a problem but as a tremendous movement. If your brain is trained to solve problems, then you will treat this movement as a problem to be solved. Is it possible to look at life with all its questions, with all its issues, which is tremendously complex, to look at it not as a problem, but to observe it clearly, without bias, without coming to some conclusion which will then dictate your observation? You have to observe this vast movement of life, not only your own particular life, but the life of all humanity, the life of the earth, the life of the trees, the life of the whole world — look at it, observe it, move with it, but if you treat it as a problem, then you will create more problems.

Life isn't a problem to be solved.
But a reality to be experienced.

There is simply no problem of life; it is absolutely purposeless play; it doesn't have to continue; there is no reason whatever to explain it, for explanations are just another form of complexity, a new manifestation of life on top of life, gestures gesturing. If there is any problem at all it is to find out how people come to think there is a problem, whatever made them imagine that life is serious. Basically there is the gesture. Time, space, multiplicity are all complications of it. Pain and suffering are very far-out forms of play, and there just isn't anything at all to be afraid of. There isn't any ego. The ego is a kind of flip, knowing that you know — like being afraid of being afraid. It's a curlicue, an extra jazz to things, a sort of double take or reverberation, a dithering of consciousness which is the same as anxiety.

Life is trouble. Only death is not. To be alive is to undo your belt and *look* for trouble.

El misterio de la vida no es problema que hay que resolver, sino una realidad que hay que experimentar.

This is the situation of everyone who feels that life is a problem to be solved. Whether you seek to solve that problem through psychoanalysis, integration, salvation, or buddhahood, you define yourself in a certain way when you see life as a problem to be solved.

There’s no mystery about a human life. It’s not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.
