Thoughts can get taken so
seriously. Sometimes thoughts become too important and what has been
revealed is to just let it all drop. Everything you think…just give it
all up. None of it is going to matter when you die ... so just die to it
now. Then you are empty again (as you always truly are), clear, empty, pure,
pristine; Stillness.
It has been mentioned (by Wayne) about looking
at thoughts and beliefs like the flavors "chocolate" or
"vanilla." You pick one and let's say you really like
"chocolate" and you go around telling everyone how good chocolate is
and why they should like chocolate, you give taste tests. Some people
who originally liked vanilla, might now like chocolate, because you introduced
it to them and they weren't aware of it, and came to find they like it more.
Then after all this work, you may find years later that you don't like
chocolate anymore, ate too much of it and now are an avid vanilla eater and you
once again go around telling people how great vanilla is and that now chocolate
is not good for you cause you read a book on chocolate that says it is no
longer good for you and you begin converting people to vanilla.
This is how it is with thoughts and
beliefs. They change over time, you pick one today and tomorrow you will
find something that says something in a different direction and you start
following that. However, in the end it will not matter what flavor you
preferred of anything. When you die, you have to (figure of speech) leave
your preferences at the door. When you die, all your beliefs, ideas,
thoughts die. You return to what you already are right now, before the
beliefs and thoughts. Funny, that the beliefs and thoughts that one
thinks will reveal to them who they are, where they are going, and what they
are in; are the exact things that keep the Revelation from your
awareness.
At the end of your life all beliefs
are stripped from you, however, you have the ability right now to just drop
everything you believe, everything you are fighting for, all the things that
you attempt to convert others to see your way; and just simply Be.
Nothing
to teach, nothing to learn, just simply Being.
