Loneliness is a mess. The struggle to be with others. The struggle to fit in. The struggle to be seen to fit in.
Loneliness may even feel like a disease. A permanent weakness. A handicap.
But maybe it is simply an illusion—a veil over truth, maya.
Beneath the layers, we are interconnected, one with all existence.
Aloneness, if embraced, can perhaps guide us closer to the Divine. Because in silence, beyond distraction, all realized souls say, is where we glimpse our truest nature.
