unlearning & the book of secrets.

renounce your old perceptions

perception is the world; the world is perception

the world is in you

your life is a product of your awareness

on some dimension or other, every event in life can be causing only one of two things: either it is good for you, or it is bringing up what you need to look at in order to create good for you.

let go:
make the most of every experience
don't obsess over right & wrong decisions
stop defending your self image
go beyond risks
make no decision when in doubt
see the possibilities in whatever happens
find the stream of joy

instead of looking for sensory overload that lasts forever, you'll find that the experiences need to be enabled at the level of meaning & emotion

if you want to fully experience life, you must close the circle

it is much simpler not to have beliefs, which means being open to life as it comes your way, going with your own intelligence instead of stored judgments

in truth, suffering persists only to the extent that we allow ourselves to remain lost in our own creation

a healing relationship is based on awareness; in it both partners work to break old habits promoting suffering. they have to walk a fine line because compassion means that you appreciate the suffering someone else is experiencing, as well as your own. yet as the same time there has to be detachment, making sure that suffering, no matter how real, isnt the dominant reality. the attitudes that make for a healing relationship become part of a vision you hold for yourself & the other person.
