“I disapprove, dislike, even hate this individual regardless of their position or profession. I join others who feel the same, thus easing my conscience.” Your crowd is not the escape that frees you from being what you are. They are your prison, and the prisoner’s refrain is, “I didn’t do it,” or “That’s not me.” It’s just a way of saying, “I am not the thing I so despise, but the reality is you are exactly that, and until you walk through the hell of what you bury in your ideas of righteousness, you’ll spend a lot of time there.
Freedom knows no crowd who believes as you do. It is an individual jailbreak into the light of life that shines for all. Living “light” never needs the security of like-minded groups, and you’ll never become aware of what you are as long as you view yourself through a crowd. There is only noise in a crowd; by yourself, and only as yourself, can you taste the sweetness of freedom, e.g., peace. Honesty with yourself about yourself is a good start.

What you believe is the demise of what is. It throws you into a false fantasy that what you don’t like now can be replaced by something you only imagine. Do you see?
The imaginary pursuit of “something else” takes you out of the present, which is real, and all there will ever be. To “believe” otherwise is to miss that. Don’t miss it! “Now” is too rich and beautiful to waste a second elsewhere!

Imposing your rules on life only serves to interfere with it, and not for the better. Imagine your fist raised against a river’s flow, demanding it change its course. Oh, the hubris to think you have any control over anything. Silly!
Observe “what is” with humility and quiet. Life un-interfered-with is not something you wrestle with by applying your version of what it should be. Instead, it is something to behold with reverence and awe.

The world lands in a place you likely want it to or not. You feel good when it does and not so good when it doesn’t, but it’s a fallacy to think you chose it. Our minds love to “think” they are on the right side of everything, but the mind confuses everything by its bifurcation of reality.
Everything you see, can’t see, and are incapable of any conceptualization is your creation, which emanates from an unseen source. Why allow a finite blob of gray matter to divide any of it into chunks of good or bad?
Know “what YOU are,” and reality will never elude you, and the vastness of infinity will never be, again, confined to mind-constructed good or bad. “All that is,” really is fabulous!

In a world of choices, hate wins, too, and we all go one way or another. No “choice” ever needs to be made when you are love and you are love. Love doesn’t win; it just is, and there is no choice.

Sadly, humans have reached the point in the three-dimensional experience where, for the majority, “being present” is being in a different and often awkward place. Do you see? We have become so far removed from reality, e.g., “what is, right now,” it’s a surprise when we encounter it.
Yet, paradoxically, presence is always present, and so is the YOU who is only aware of the beauty beneath the chatter in your mind. Do you know who that is? You need to, but your mind is incapable of understanding, so what do you do? Could you turn it (mind) off? In other words, turning off the endless noise of your mind is the ultimate “turn-on.” Wrest your mind from its constant noise-making so that YOU can appear to you.

Your body has the sensory equipment to detect millions of bits of information each second, but your mind (consciousness) can only process maybe forty bits per second. What happens to the rest, and what is held in consciousness and why? When you wake up each morning, where have “you” been? The all-important “I” only appears upon waking up, but where was it, and what was in its place while you slept? The “Self” spoken of by so many spiritual gurus is “what is” while you are asleep and unaware of the conscious self you refer to as “I” while awake.
We speak of expanding consciousness, but your mind is incapable of that. All your mind can do is alter what it is conscious of. In other words, what is it that sleeps without any awareness of body or mind? It is the only question worthy of answering, and only you can do it.
Look at your conscious filters. Does your mind stream information that sounds like a CNN, Fox News, newsreel, a religious sermon, righteous indignation, a political cause, a reality Television show, gossip, video game, etc.? Forty bits of information is all you get unless you rediscover “what YOU are” that silently takes in everything. Since “IT” has no bodily limitations, why would you waste a single bit of conscious information not connecting with IT? Silly question?

YOU are neither subject nor object nor is anything you perceive as a human. YOU do nothing, yet are everything. YOU always enjoys the ride, but “you” may not. This is why it is necessary to override you with YOU. While you are searching for the perfect, end-all ride, YOU will enjoy the ride but never leave the fairground. So are you, you, or YOU?

Humility starts with YOU and ends with love. Do you know YOU? Only “love” knows. Peaceful day, Carl

The dream, expressed or sought, is not living. Your dream of the world only happens when you are present as it happens, transparent, and entirely free of any aspect of it you wish to change or believe otherwise. For most, transparency manifests as surreptitiousness. If I express my life eloquently enough, attempt to go through the motions I profess, etc., no one will see my hypocrisy.
There is no path to awareness through your mind. There is nothing you can do, think, or say, and nowhere you can go to unmask “what YOU are.” Living your dream is what is right now. Assuming it can or should be something else is “the” only nightmare you will ever encounter. Reality is not about you; it is YOU, and it shows most clearly without the mask. I see YOU; truly amazing!
