At some level
everyone is seeking Unity, Oneness, Self Realization. Call
it what you will. Yet there is only Unity. The idea of separation
is a myth, a hypnosis. The filters of experience and knowledge
blind us to the obvious. We are like the fish in the sea searching
for water but overlooking the obvious.
Once you see it, it’s quite simple. You wonder how you
could have ever missed it.
You’re missing it now because you are not seeing clearly.
You are entranced and hypnotized by your own personal filters.
Seeking clarity while being hypnotized is useless. Clarity
can only be experienced by coming out of the hypnosis of the
mind and seeing life without the filters.
Becoming clear is not a matter of doing. Rather, it is a matter
of undoing. Rather than absorbing still more theoretical (and
counterproductive) philosophy or psychology, give yourself
permission to view Truth as Truth views itself: unfettered,
innocent, non-judgmental.
The Seeker must be aware of his/her filters and let go of
them – at least temporarily. Only then can Truth be
realized. And one glimpse is enough to give you everything
you want.
To recognize and then neutralize your filters you must first
understand the workings of your own mind. You will quickly
and easily see how in childhood you formed the filters through
which you now view life. To rid yourself of these filters
you must convince your own subconscious mind that the filters
are no longer relevant and are actually preventing you from
finding what you want. This is not easy but it is simple and
straightforward.
It is impossible to attain a state of clarity if you continue
to identify with and worship the hypnotic trance created by
your filters. The map to clarity is not complicated. Self
realization is attainable as soon as you are ready. The path
is clear. What will be difficult will be facing the constant
and ever-repeating dilemma of whether to wake up or remain
in the old trance.
Truth is not something to be sought. There are no oceans to
swim, no mountains to climb. Truth is present everywhere,
at all times. It is yours for the sincere asking.
