Die to someone or die as no-one. That's the choice. We feel the former is a huge loss. We are losing things that were never ours. Your family, your job, your house are not yours. To drop the yours is to drop the you. You own nothing, you author nothing, you control nothing. You can postpone the fear of death until your death bed. Or you can be free now and live in light, strength, peace, truth - all of which are your true nature always there to be availed of.

Everything is a device, religion included. A story is needed to shake one awake. What is said is done so to be helpful. To the absolute, there is nothing to change. I agree. Everything happening has to happen. But this is unhelpful and irresponsible to one who is suffering. So it is good to point the way. To give is to receive. One only ever benefits oneself and that is why one speaks or more accurately lets oneself be spoken through. Like I said, I am doing everything to myself and this life is my responsibility. And what is the way? Become aware of what you truly are. Everything I say one can become directly conscious of.

Let me take second question. The body-mind-I is not the true-I. All the body-minds you see are the projection of true-I. Body-minds have no responsibility since they are carrying out their script. True-I has created everything and so is responsible. You need to align with true-I. First question - as a body-mind-I, I can do nothing. But I can experience peace. This is the clue that I am on track and moving towards truth. Peace basically is nothing troubles me anymore. Peace is as far as the body-mind-I can go. Now I can be used by true I to communicate but I have no say in it. But a lot can get done now that I am batting for the right team. My words could move a mountain perhaps as Jesus suggested.

The meaning of the word "responsible" changes. The world does not cause unhappiness but is the effect. I blamed the world for my troubles. But I am the one who projected all this. I am responsible for what I have done and what others have done is what I made them do! And when I say "others" I am part of that group since I have projected myself here and that is why there is no doer. I am carrying out a script that I made myself do. I am responsible for myself nothing else. And the key is to stop misidentifying as the doer. You can understand it but can you realize it? This is the work. Life goes on exactly the same but you stop interfering and stop resisting. Interfere means to add to what is and resist means to oppose what is. For example, John is bad = interference. John is bad and I am angry about it = resistance. Life is happening and is fine as it is. When identification goes then truth dawns,

Likewise and thanks good man for your earnest contemplations. The point I make is, identification is the root 0f all evil. That's what needs dropping. You need to see you are not the you that you think you are. The body acts and then you claim yourself the doer. You need to notice and drop it. You are not something that can be put in words. Identification is interfering with and obscuring what is. It prevents you from seeing. Spiritual work is undoing the false I. This is what Robert Adams among many others teaches.

Everything is as conscious as I am. Being enlightened means everything is the same. The only thing I ever see is God. It is my state that accords consciousness to the world. The only world is the one I make. Perception veils consciousness. Learn to see right. Remove the scales from your eyes.

By being here, there isn't a will to live as much as an implicit contract to die. You are here to die. Seize the moment, break the chains. Don't be like the billions who passed before you. Break the mould. Escape the fetters. End the suffering. You need but a mustard seed of faith. Namely seek out someone who has walked the walk. Find that exemplar. This is the best time ever to be alive. You have more power in your hands that whole armies had before you. Make your life count. You have very few days left.

Problem is, I am not who I think I am. An appearance is not me. So when I say, I got up this morning. It's untrue. Getting up took place and I added a me to it.

Relative truth doesn't always hold. If it did it would be absolute. But there is something that is always true. Since you were born something about you didn't change and can't. God can't hide from itself. But it can convincingly appear to. Appearance. All this here is appearance. God's game. I am this, right? No! I am the undisturbed that contains every disturbance that ever arises.

Everyone just repeats patterns that they have been conditioned with. It is survival. They do to others what others do unto them. To forgive means they did not harm the essence of what you are. To do that is impossible. They harm themselves; they do not harm you. Any evil directed your way is fuel for your awakening. We need to suffer to wake up. If we don't suffer, we see no reason to change.

Forgive them as they know not what they do. Also take not one piece more of their shit. Cut these folks off root and branch. Only then can life be meaningful and purposeful. First few decades of life we have no say in what passes. We have to insert a full stop and go our own way. It is going to take time to adjust, settle and heal. This is the first beautiful stage of the self-directed life. Hang in there, take your time and set your stall for the long haul ahead. If you do it right, life hits bottom and then only gets better and better.

Love is the only thing that exists. What us earthlings do is place apparent obstacles that block the reality of love like clouds that block the sun. We believe in them so we see them. They are apparent not actual. How to remove these obstacles? Withdraw belief in them. For example if anger arises, lay it aside and let anger no longer be an obstacle to love. Love is recognising that everything is love. Even the obstacles are love. But they come they go. Have them go quick. To do otherwise is to suffer.

Step 1 is, I am doing everything to myself. Take responsibility. The world isn't making me unhappy. I have a deep investment in unhappiness since it keeps this dream of separation alive. I don't want to give this up. I may be unhappy but maybe tomorrow I will be happier than today. You have to make a choice. You want this or you want that. Fear not that you will lose the body. You won't. It goes on until the final breath as it was sure to do. But body will serve a different purpose post-awakening. It will be a communication tool. It will be used by truth to demonstrate truth. You don't need to do anything externally to awaken. What you do is change your mind about what you see. Stop interpreting what you see. It's not bad; it's not good. It just is. Stop letting your mind run your life on your behalf. It has a selfish agenda. It wants to keep you here suffering for lifetimes to come. Take back charge of your life.

The unconscious mind is, I want to be unhappy, separate and special. The work is undoing these mistakes. Dissolve self, dissolve others, dissolve problems. They all exist because you are creating them. Undo them. Any tension in the body is a clue that more work is needed. In fact, all upset, irritation, disappointment, annoyance, frustration are telling you that you are not seeing correctly.

Let no goddam-mutherfuckas define your limits, do you feel me. Just you tell me I can't climb Everest and Ima do it barefoot to shut up your face. Had enough of do-gooding-losers for lifetimes to come. Rant over.
