This understanding removes the virus of separation and limitation and fear of mortality, personal worries and concerns and this endless spinning in the past and the future. That is the healer of the mind…
So the journey is a journey of understanding about the true nature of being, your true experience, your true self as not a thing, not anything perceived, not anything felt, not anything conceived.
This habitual resistance, a sort of stubbornness. It’s innocent, but it’s still a stubbornness: I don’t wanna let go! And I hold on to my story. Identify with my feelings and emotions and it’s childish, it’s stubbornness. We’re all familiar with that.
Out of a masochistic play, you identify yourself with a limited form. You imagine yourself to be mortal. You believe yourself and feel yourself to be something existing in time and space…
To meet each other freshly, to meet one’s experience, freshly. Because there is freedom in meeting without a past. There is peace, in the absence of being somebody.
The habitual mind is always seeking activity. Something to do, somewhere to go, something to get, something to recollect and repeat. But all this activity is just a reflection, a dreamlike reflection. It has no significance.
What sort of nonsense? This personal identification, the sense of separation, wars, and conflicts, and battles. So invite yourself to let go. Without conditions. Without holding on to anything. Completely let go. It’s an exploration. It’s an invitation.
We are habituated to perceive from a me-perspective, from a certain imaginary focal point. So we release this focal point. It’s as if we are perceiving from a space behind the eyes, behind the head, behind the body, so that your perception is more global without a particular focus point.
