"It seems that consciousness has a fantastic imagination and enjoys playing hide and seek. And yet wherever it goes in the movie of waking life, it never departs from itself. Realizing that, we can begin to take it all more lightly, with a sense of humor. It’s a great show, and we all get to play the main character. But it’s very helpful to recognize that we’re only playing. We’re never really lost or bound or encapsulated inside a body looking out at a world."
Thank-you for this beautiful message. 😍
