Thanks to Bill W and the 100 drunks that got together 67 years ago.....
There is a next step and I don't mean a 13th step... You said you have no craving; put yourself in the "objective view" while:
1. Ill
2. Elated
3. Tired
4. Angry
5. Loaded
If you can tell that person you see in the mirror that you have no craving even under these conditions, then perhaps you really have no cravings...Also, give up grumbling forever!!! Eventually you will have to change to seeking out others who are seeking goodness, truth, and beauty... Grumbling is driven by the morality of your childhood which is a collection of shoulds and don'ts... There is nothing good, true, or beautiful about shoulds and don'ts... They are opinions...
Epictitus in 100AD pointed out, "The few control the many by opinion."...
Opinion: information held confident without direct or immediate knowledge...... Dr. Rod
