Befriend the void

“Oh hermit, drop that thought ego begot ~ Relinquish beliefs to become self-taught” ~ quote by poet What is belief save thought forms reinforced, till we’re convinced that that is the truth, caging consciousness in our mind, which reworded simply means that thus self-hypnotised, light within opaqued, we just wander like a ghost in fear, lost. Be this be as it may, we can redeem our soul’s inner light by shifting to the heart, viewing the world as a dream, that thus in but not of the world, by resting in time dissolved silence, we see clearly that we are living light.
