Confused – So We Join A Group

The purpose of life is to know what we are. We then know what everyone else is – pure consciousness.

Now, all we need is to understand why we believe that we aren’t,
and so we join a group, a lifestyle.

The moment a group’s boundary is drawn – as in, this group is where it’s at – the illusion of separation takes over, because the ego excels at turning the concept of ‘oneness’ into an exclusive club. When people gather around the idea of pure consciousness, they unconsciously create a new and subtle layer of division as the intellect uses universal truth to feel special, safe, and separate all over again.

If we leave a group – or get kicked out –
no one enquires why, as there might be a perfectly good reason.

We defer to leaders because the human ego is terrified of standing alone in an unscripted no man’s land, in the absolute freedom and groundless vulnerability of pure consciousness.

Surrendering our autonomy to a leader is the ultimate psychological coping mechanism. It instantly relieves the pressure of existence, transferring the burden of choice, morality and identity onto someone else.

This is not the way.
The way is our path.

True spiritual maturity requires killing the Buddha on the road. A genuine guide functions purely as a mirror, pointing us back to our own inherent authority. It then melts away.

A true teacher refuses to let us lean on them
because they know that attachment
is just another highly sophisticated form of separation.
