What is most important, what happens TODAY, or the more timeless questions?

Before enlightenment, chop wood and carry water. After enlightenment, chop wood and carry water.
Yes, that sounds like it explains it. (See comments.)
And it sounds like what enlightened people will often tell you. They are perfectly contended, so they can't see any reason why you shouldn't be perfectly contended either.
I think many people, amazing as it sounds, are actually totally blind to the *process* which happens between not-enlightened and Enlightened. It seems to them it just happened spontaneously one days as they were walking in the park.
I think that's because the bulk of the Process happens in the much deeper mind which the Human mind does not have access to normally. But this doesn't mean that we can't influence it necessarily.

The most timeless questions must be lived out, in all their ephemeral forms, TODAY. What that looks like, all senses trembling and alive, what you're doing right now. The manifest is perceived, and known through the brain and senses, and all is bathed simultaneously in the unmanifest aspect, the Unknown.
Cheers!

of course...today...and a cup of hot coffee to start it.
Have you eaten your porridge yet? If yes, I think you should wash your bowl.
This is a first! I didn't understand *any* of the comments to this one! :-)
