Sillyness · The Consciousness Path

Sillyness

A spiritual "teaching" assumes a separate individual that needs improvement: That needs to become more conscious, as that is what seems to be the only worthwhile Endeavour; to live with integrity, become whole and complete, in the end. That seems to be common sense, solid and true. Now at the same time it is true that you are whole and complete already; there is nothing wrong with you. It's a paradox. As long as this person is experienced as a separate being (this IS you) , with a life and a history and (hopefully) a future in which there is a striving towards a goal of enlightenment, or being bad ass conscious...there is not a chance you will get what is longed for. Sad but true. You will never get it. It is in this context a bit silly to say that you never existed, nor did anyone ever. In this immediacy that cannot be explained, understood or made sense of, such a statement is silly; you are boundless, infinite existence that does not exist and is nothing appearing to be you. But this is true freedom in which everything is always new.
