If I dont do anything, wont I become a passive, lazy slob who doesnt stand for anything?
What is being suggested is not that you do nothing, it is that you do fully from a state of being and not from a state of fear and confusion. At present most of us live in a state of disconnectedness and fear. In this state we act compulsively out of fear. This kind of doing is disjointed and self-centered, for its main purpose is the preservation of a fearful, disconnected me. When we step into being and see the fear and disconnectedness melt away, we start acting from a state of joy and compassion. Whatever action springs from this state has a very different quality for it is selfless. It has the capacity to change the world. It is much more active as it is totally present and resists nothing. When there is no resistance action flows much more easily. This is very different to being a passive, lazy slob.
