If life is an illusion (it is), then trying to fix yourself is an illusion too. In other words, that which assesses the need to fix, by whatever means, is also the fixer, and it is the fixer who creates the illusion it seeks to fix. You do see the folly of this, right? It’s like the primary rule of “wing walking. That is, never let go with one hand until you are holding on to something else with the other. However, in so doing, you are still “walking the wing” of the same airplane. To see the real, you must void yourself, altogether, of the unreal, and the unreal is everything your mind holds on to, e.g., literally, everything that passes through it.
Letting go is not a leap of faith, as that would just be affixing yourself to another illusion. It is a leap into the abyss where safety and security give way to mystery and breathless wonder. It is anyone’s guess how you fall or where you land if you land at all, but oh, what a thrill you’ll have. And that is as it should be!
