The human soul is always inclined to hope for a miracle. There is no such desperate situation in which, at the most critical moment, the dawn of hope would not rise from the depths of the soul.
Victor Hugo "The Man Who Laughs"

Hope gives a foretaste of joy and light at the “end of the tunnel”, hope strengthens existence, where we, like squirrels, rush in the wheel of samsara in pursuit of pain to. Hope is an ancient drug that all of humanity is specifically addicted to. When the blissful dose of hope is exhausted, withdrawal comes in the form of hopelessness and doom. Having lost hope, we hang in an eerie lack of support, as if we have fallen into an abyss from which there is no escape.

Against the backdrop of hopeless despair, when it seems that there is nothing more to lose, at some point detachment and calmness come. The wall of hopelessness cracks a little, and through the thin gap, the light of non-duality begins to break through, a hint of the cold, unconditional happiness of enlightenment. But if hopelessness was not total and all-encompassing, this cosmic crotch slams shut, hopelessness and doom dissolve, and it comes again. And every time we cling to hope, as if to a thread of salvation in the unconditional chaos of infinity. It gives us “strength”, meaning and incentives to live, act and develop.

Every day, every hour, every moment we live in hope for the best. All our lives we run behind the horizon of happiness, which moves away from us at the same speed with which we “approach” it. This running in place continues as long as we hope for something. This is our human nature, - to live for a non-existent future. Hope gives us strength for such running, but it robs us of our cold truth.

A person may not notice this continuous hope for “tomorrow,” just as a fish does not notice water. Hope is the air of personality, without which it cannot exist. We live in dreams, constantly hoping that we are about to find a way out of the stuffy room of the current life situation. At some point we find this way out, and for five minutes we rejoice in “freedom.” Then hope comes again, and we suddenly find that we have entered yet another stuffy room, dominated by yet another duality of hope and doom.

All achievements, all our interests, new acquisitions, expectations, purchases, everything, everything is dictated by the hope for the best. We believe that after the next purchase and after the next achievement, we will finally begin to live, and we will live well. This is the voice of hope, fruitless promises of happiness, which still will not come, because in hope there has always been only a hint of happiness, but there has never been and never will be happiness in hope.

Hoping for something, we once again pull the thread of hope into a tangle of despair, unraveling which, instead of the promised happiness, we find hopelessness. After this there comes a pause, an expectation that is “like death.” And this pause lasts until we grab another bundle of hope for the hundred thousandth time. Successful people in our society they are experts at finding such balls of hope in large quantities. They are able to conduct many things at the same time - that is, simultaneously unravel many such tangles. And this makes sense. When the next tangle is recognized as a dummy, despair and hopelessness are compensated by those tangles of hope that have not yet been unraveled. They give meaning to life. This is the “middle” path of a successful person.

In its essence, hope is simply an experience that we perceive as a seed, an embryo of happiness. We quickly become attached to hope, and when it ends, we experience withdrawal. We equally project hopelessness and hope onto our lives as “real” events, forgetting that these are just experiences. This is voluntary self-deception. We begin to think and believe that our hope is some real event that will happen to us by itself. Sometimes we don’t seem to understand that the events of our lives depend not at all on hope and hopelessness, but on our “real” actions.

Hope - great way protect yourself from change. If hope for a better life came and you felt it sweet taste, why do anything else? Beautiful dreams and conversations about better life– an excellent substitute for this most beautiful and best life. You dreamed a little, daydreamed and you feel satisfied! For today, the “deed” is done. But what about real changes? Why are they? It's too difficult and dangerous, because you can screw up and feel like a failure. It is much easier to leave everything as it is and continue to hope.

And this can continue until it’s too late, until your health runs out and the walls are covered with green moss.

Sometimes, hoping for a better life, we actually don’t want to change anything. We just love to hope, we love hope, we believe in it. We like to think about change, about a new life. And doing something for these changes is completely optional.

Ultimately, no matter what improvements we plan and make in ourselves, they are all dictated by the hope for a bright future. But the bright future still won’t come. The future remains somewhere in the future, and we live in a continuous “now,” protecting ourselves from the truth with the hope of the beautiful lie of a possible future.

The truth of the present moment is extremely dangerous to all our hopes. This truth is our existential fear of death, the fear of the individual - to dissolve completely in unconditional life without supports and restrictions. And to avoid this enlightening dissolution, we cling to hope.

What are you dreaming about? What are you hoping for? What are you striving for? ? ? ? Power? Prestige? ? All this is hope, another way to escape from yourself, from life here and now...

Perhaps at this point someone has already begun to think about getting rid of hope. And this - and this is her voice! Hope dictates this strange self-deception to us. Hoping to get rid of hope for the sake of a better life is tantamount to wanting to get rid of all desires, tantamount to committing suicide in order to somehow “improve” your life. This is a pursuit from oneself, with the goal of catching up with oneself. No one really sincerely wants to kill hope. And if he thinks that he is sincere about killing hope, then most likely he does not understand what he is talking about.

What then can we hope for? There were no answers here and there never will be. We live in a world of hope. Here everything happens according to these laws. We are all steadily moving towards a way out of the duality of hope and hopelessness, simultaneously falling into all possible extremes, so that, having become fed up with them, the “exit” from these extremes ceases to be perceived as a fatal, inevitable hopelessness. But in general, here, in this life, everything is really nothing. This is the voice of hope speaking.
