Drop All Fantasies

What if who we are does not need to feel a particular way to be free? What if the world that you and I have created, seeks a false good? A good that is a good in terms of polarity - your good may not be somebody else's good, your bad might not be somebody else's bad. But the true Good with no polarity is the I that is actually listening to these words now.

A bit of a dilemma, maybe you can hear this. Everything then, that we endeavoured not to feel turns our life into a fantasy of what we believe we need, to be what we originally are. So we build a fantasy. We build a fantasy around identification with what we believe we need, to be what we are. I don't know if you're getting that, but that's the kind of amazing joke, if you really get the joke. Maybe all that we have to do, truly, is drop all fantasies. And in some way, just stop. Completely stop and remain open as all the energies we have endeavoured to avoid and all the energies we have endeavoured to collect, so there is polarity there.

And I am suggesting we call that the world or a limiting sense of self. You decide whether the world is a limited sense of self. What is the world? Is the world some kind of fantasy? Whose? I suggest if we just stop still, the energy that seeks liberation in the light of Awareness simply comes home.

Simple question, who would you be when everything stopped? Would you not be pure openness? Would you not discover what you are or where you go in deep dreamless sleep? Is deep dreamless sleep actually profound?
