Don’t believe everything you think because your mind will make up stories that just aren’t true. It will make up the past as being real yet the only place the past exist is in the mind. It will make up things to fear, yet the only thing you have to fear is fear itself. It will make up beliefs that the self is a solid entity, but the form that exist needs no such attachment to be, as it is always changing in a constant state of flux. It will make up the story of I think therefore I am, but thinking has nothing to do with I am. It will make up a story that everything desired on the outside is needed, but the reality is if none of those desires are given into nothing happens. There’s the thing the mind calls ego, this is the bogeyman under the bed, it exist until one looks under the bed. There’s also not a need to get rid of it because it doesn’t truly exist; except as a mind story.
Then there’s the image in the mirror who was given a name for identification purposes, we think we are that made up name. If the name is different you’ll think you’re someone else, but that’s only to the mind because the form remains the same. There will be many stories held onto that just aren’t true, but unfortunately the more they are attached to the truer they seem. To truly be free the made up stories will have to be exposed. This doesn’t mean you find out you don’t exist, what happens is you find out you don’t exist in the way your mind makes you believe. When this truth is revealed, no longer will you listen to your made up mind stories because you’ll understand you shouldn’t believe everything you think because most of it is a made up mind story…
