Freeing Ourself From Our Self
Freeing ourself from our self is what life is all about,
waking up from our dreamlike existence.
Dreamlike: a succession of images, ideas, emotions and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind.
Our dreamlike self is a mental construct of ideas acquired from others’ dreamlike states.
We foolishly feel there is safety in numbers 🙂
Our true being is pure consciousness, which we could call true self if we want to. Don’t think that pure consciousness is a neutral, unfeeling vegetable; it is full of empathetic compassion, effulgent with luminosity.
If we look at genuine spiritual teachers, present and past, they each have an individual approach and way of expressing. One size does not fit all. 😀
When we are free of using self-importance to impress others,
we are free to live in the light of clarity.
Free of dead stories,
we are a living story.
