Who are you? The one question that this culture steers clear from. Instead we find ourselves in labels, in titles, in how our body looks, in possessions, money, status, knowledge, etc - all things that are constantly changing, all things that are transient. We know ourselves as an australian, a russian, a christian, a muslim, spiritual person, a nice person, father, atheist, accountant, scorpio etc. Notice how none of these labels can truly describe our whole being? They are only a very poor representation at most. And when we define ourselves by these labels, we live in the little box that this creates. When we are a christian, we do christian things. When we are australian, we like to live by the australian ideology. When we are wealthy, we act wealthy. When we are a hard worker, that is how we are seen and like to be seen. When we abide by these labels, it separates us from our fellow man too. Liberation - as has been passed down through many sages, saints, gurus, monks - from misery, from the box weve created, from suffering, from anxiety, from mental disorders, from aversion, from desire, from all the things that keep us trapped, has been said to be found by truly knowing ourself. By setting ourselves free from the limited box weve put ourself in to. The whole world is rapidly waking up from this slumber though! The darkness that is being perpetuated through government, corporations, control, surveillance, pollution, environmental degradation, is the catalyst that is turning people within to truly know themselves. This darkness is so, because we are shining the light of awareness on to it. This darkness is needed as much as the light, and therefore concepts like light and dark are actually irrelevant in the end (think of the yin/yang symbol). So, do you truly know what it is you are? Do you know yourself beyond ideas, concepts and symbols? Are you free from attachment to people and things, are you free from aversion, desire and craving? Are you living in a little box? There are many guides to point you in the right direction - but the best guide is yourself. If you look at the way youve been conditioned, truly and deeply, only then can you set yourself free! https://youtube/watch?v=kUtH0DDJorM
