You are effortlessly, ever-presently that pure consciousness.

I still have trouble with the concept of completely let go of my mind and my old self

That which is having trouble "letting go" is itself merely a coming and going thought, the one having trouble is itself a thought. How can thought let go of thought? You must simply see this. There is something before "I am having trouble", there is something ever-present, it is not clouded by thought, it is there to perceive thought. You don't need to "let go" of anything, but simply remain aware of the awareness that is ever-present.

If I shall not think about neither the past or the future, how am I suppose to navigate in this illusion?

 

You must understand thinking is not helping navigate anything at all, actually it is the opposite, it is only because of you trying to think about the past or future, that you have forgot what you truly are. You are not supposed to navigate an illusion, you simply wake up to the truth, and in the light of the truth there is no need to navigate anything, you simply are and everything automatically works. You simply remain aware of being aware.

I am in fact a part of this illusion at the present moment.

 

No, you are not part of the illusion. That is merely a thought pretending to be you. It is saying "I am a part of an illusion" but that is literally just a thought appearing in that which is true, in you. You are that vast consciousness in which all thoughts, emotions and sensations appear. You CAN'T be anything other than the pure truth itself. You literally are choicelessly the truth. Nothing can ever make you not true, but that which is true can believe the mind when the mind says "I am a part of this illusion", it is not true even if you say it is, it is literally just a thought. No meaning, no substance at all.

. If I completely dissociate from this illusion how can I be a part of it?

 

You don't dissociate from this illusion, you simply see that the one who needs to dissociate is ITSELF an illusion, appearing in that which is true. There is no one that needs to dissociate, there is no need to be a part of an illusion. You simply remain as the truth that you are. That ever-present awareness, that is there unconditionally whether there are thoughts, emotions or sensations appearing.

It is so absolutely clear that you are not ANYTHING APPEARING IN CONSCIOUSNESS, you are that consciousness itself, you literally can't not be consciousness. The mind will say "I am not consciousness" and that itself is just a thought appearing IN that consciousness that you truly are.

f we all drops this old self of ours and tune in to pure consciousness (which in the end is all it is) how could we even have conversations?

 

Buddha, Christ, Mooji, Eckhart Tolle, Osho, they all are able to have conversations, and actually all conversations become beautiful and of a higher, truer consciousness, instead of silly, foolish egoic-talk.

Quote

 

his world we are living in right now exists because of separation and if everything merged into pure consciousness it would not be anymore?

 

Don't believe all these nonsense speculations of the mind. It is not true. None of what the mind wants you to believe is true about pure consciousness, is true.

Mind literally can't ever know ANYTHING about the consciousness in which itself appears. You are that consciousness. Don't trust the mind to tell you how it is to be consciousness. It can't know. Stop taking its advice, it literally is a function appearing within that consciousness that you are, it can't know anything about you. The mind appears in time, you are timeless presence. You are the timeless that perceives time itself. You are eternal. You are pure consciousness, whether you'd like it or not. Whether you identify with appearances within you, you are still that pure consciousness. Simply be aware of being aware.

Yes and once these egoic mind thoughts are no longer believed in or entertained, they die down greatly until they almost never arise...this is so amazing because its recognized that you are not the mind or its thoughts.
