Illusion is only a tool to know yourself.

[Gianna]

Do you feel worse than?
Better than? 

If so, you have fallen victim to your own illusion. 

Do you feel unworthy? 
Betrayed? 
Resentful?

If so, you have fallen victim to your own illusion. 

The illusion of self is meant to give to us, not take away. Just like time is a useful tool– but ultimately a complete illusion– your sense of self is a useful tool that is meant to give you the life you desire to experience. Anything short of what aligns you with your desires is you falling victim to your own illusion. Love and compassion are what's needed in these moments; as they are what breaks through illusion and brings you to Truth. 
We are the kingdom of heaven. 
Anything short of this, is you falling victim to your own illusion. 

[Gianna]

Disidentification as Freedom from Illusion 

When you are identified you are attached and you are closed– being closed is a misalignment with Truth. The ultimate truth is an uncompromising, unrestricted, allowing. An openness. A becoming of anything, without judgment.
It is unconditional presence, with you. 
It is unconditional acceptance, of you. 
And it is unconditional love, for you.
Which is ultimately yourself. 
It is yourself giving to yourself. 
It is your love, loving itself. 
And it is your beauty, admiring itself in its own reflection. 

If you can be disidentified enough to love yourself when you fall flat on your face, then you will find true Freedom.
