Lets play a game, you and I. You and I are going to play this game we have been playing all our lives unconsciously and we are going to play it consciously, in full awareness that it is just a game, not reality. And this puts the game on a whole other level. It is much more fun this way. You dont take it so seriously. You actually have infinite choices of what your character can be. And you have infinite choices of what my character can be. You can make you anything. And you can make me anything. You are already doing this, but you have most likely limited your choices quite severely. Youve listened to other peoples opinions of you as if they were really true. And even when those people are no longer around, youve carried those ideas and opinions with you. And that isnt so much fun, is it? So now were going to play this game consciously. Were going to create whatever we like. And sometimes well still create things that we dont seem to like. But now were aware that we chose that too. Even what we dont seem to like is important for our learning and is part of the game. When were conscious of the game, the learning happens very, very quickly. Lessons that may have taken years or even lifetimes to learn when we were still unconscious are now learned in months, weeks and even days. Its a very, very interesting game. As you play the game consciously you will notice a few things. You will notice that the reality of the game seems to dissolve. Before you would look at a person and be sure they are exactly the type of person you think they are and they would act in ways that reinforced this. Now you are no longer so sure. As you change your projections of that person, you notice that they seem to change in accordance with your projections. How interesting. The hard edges of the game and life itself seem to be far more soft and permeable than you ever imagined. This is not only true of others in the game, you also see it in your concept of yourself. As you realize who you thought you were is nothing more than a series of concepts, of inventions and creations, most not even originating with you, your sense of self expands greatly. It no longer has hard edges marked by the borders of a body but seems to be infinite as space. In the game you realize that anything you think yourself to be you are. So you begin to let go of the projections of others that no longer serve you or make you happy. And you create new ones that do. You become free and powerful. The reality of the game can dissolve completely. In that case there is only Oneness. But there is no longer a game. You can do this if you like. It will happen quite naturally anyway. But not before you are ready for it. So dont worry. You created the game. You wont finish it before you are ready to. Until then, lets play. But lets play consciously. Its much more fun this way.
