Attraction of illusion

These are personal notes and links regarding the dissolution of one's Self-Image --i.e. one's ego. The path is non-duality. Life itself has brought me here. These notes are reminders of my direction, and my lack of direction. They are to strengthen my focus on what ACIM calls "the real world" i.e. "that which does not change." While these notes are written for me, if you find them helpful, you may feel at home to read any of them.
Fwd: Going through an eye of a needle...
Focus on the inner eye... are we more interested in phenomenon or the seer of it?
...
It's a wonderful time to watch the small self from your quiet centre, which is not identified with the persona. This is the awakened you. the watcher of the game of life as Guruji said. When one is not so identified with the story, life can be much more fun. Step back every chance you can. We'll go through the eye of the needle --we'll simply find ourself on the other side completely unified with the Infinite.

Subject: Going through an eye of a needle...It is just another poetic way of saying that we need to die to ourself -- our self image which is made up of the physical. If we simply create a poorer version of our self image, we miss the boat, and can help less people... If that is our aim. ACIM says that in truth we are Spirit already, but we don't want to live it due to our deep subconscious fear.We can live in the spirit when we can forget our thoughts, our wants, our fears, our cars, our houses, our friends... Everything that creates the self image.Hugs

I Am Presence
Mooji Feb 19, 2012 India
One of the easiest practices is to stay in the feeling of "I am"
This does not take time, for it is here already.
For as soon as we awake and are aware of the phenomenal world the Presence is there. It is the "I" that is indeed aware. Stay in that feeling. It will have a wonderful vibration. The more you stay in it, giving it your awareness, the more you will sense it, and the phenomenal world will begin to be less interesting.
This I feeling announces Existence itself. It is our true nature. Our true Self. We don't need to go looking for it. If you do, it will be the mind that you are following.
You will see that all movement, all activity is within the I feeling.
This is how to discern Reality from Illusion (ACIM). We are not separate from God except when we follow mind and identify with an image it makes up.

Recognize that from the I feeling, attention arises. Where I place attention is key. Keep it going back to the I Am feeling rather than a changing story about a make believe person.
No activity can impede the Truth. The Self does not mind any activity. The false identity causes problems....
I can easily be without the mind, but the mind can not be without me.
The I Am presence is already stable, already perfect, already enlightened, but if we're identified in the mind we think there is something wrong with us. We need to fix it etc. It becomes an unending game, a delay tactic, rather than seeing that there is nothing needed or to add.
The Heart for me is the core of your being, a sense of our center. It is not a construct of the mind.
