“…Why do we disbelieve? We disbelieve because we are afraid of oneness, afraid of the vast. We feel that when we enter into the vast, we lose our identity, we lose our individuality, we lose our very existence. But we forget the undeniable Truth that when we enter into the vastness it is not merely entering; it is nothing short of the enlargement of our divinised consciousness.
A seeker finds it infinitely easier to believe the Truth, the Reality, for his is the life of conscious awareness. For an ordinary person, an unaspiring human being, it is extremely difficult not to disbelieve. An aspiring person, an aspiring seeker, knows that there is something within that is pushing him forward to the Light, to the Reality. An unaspiring person feels that something from without is pulling him backwards, pulling him to something unknown, something that will bind him…”

There is a saying “your body hears every word you say” and also “your body believes in every word you say or think” and this manifests somewhere and is pulling you backwards, because other people hear it and become convinced also. The body can turn what you say into a
self-fufilling situation, something that will bind you.
But I was not interested in creating a headache for myself. so I aspire and go forward at every moment,
I believe into self-transendence,
