Even With Proof

Even with proof that we cannot be anything other than pure consciousness – that which is staring at what is staring us in the face 🙂 – we still revert to a habitual way of thinking, due to early traumas of assuming we’re someone ‘special’.

We may think that we’ve never experienced trauma, but all our experiences – both pleasant and unpleasant – have created subtle anxieties, and paint the picture of our life. That’s why this blog emphasises trauma, which is another word for karma or the maintenance of self. This is the vicious cycle of human existence which goes unnoticed.

In joining a spiritual group, these traumas can actually get worse because of others’ superiority traumas. 🙂 I’ve heard gurus laugh about students wounds, and the students laugh with them, neither realising that, although these wounds are an illusion, they are the key to our path to enlightenment.

These traumas become teachings 
that will continually guide us until enlightenment.

When we work on our own, 
we have to be scrupulous in our observation
to the extent that there is no observer judging, just observation.

‘Proper’ people hide their traumas.
Practitioners use them.
