True salvation is freedom from negativity, and above all from past and future as a psychological need.
All cravings are the mind seeking salvation or fulfillment in external things and in the future as a substitute for the joy of Being.
To be identified with your mind is to be trapped in time: the compulsion to live almost exclusively through memory and anticipation. This creates an endless preoccupation with past and future and an unwillingness to honor and acknowledge the present moment and allow it to be. The compulsion arises because the past gives you an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, of fulfillment in whatever form. Both are illusions.
True salvation is freedom from negativity.

All cravings are the mind seeking salvation or fulfillment in external things and in the future as a substitute for the joy of Being.

...the past gives you an identity and the future holds the promise of salvation, of fulfillment in whaterver form. Both are illusions.
