Just Be

Voice : Have you tried to.. just be ? 

Me : Be who ? 

Voice : Just.....be. 

Me : Just be me ?? 

Voice : Just....be. 

Me : Oh..it's one of your deep intense...some profound things again I probably know nothing about ....  

Voice : Haha. We can talk about something else. 

Me : No, go ahead. I am curious.

Voice : Think of the time when you driving on the highway at night and cars keep passing by from the opposite direction. Don’t the headlights of the passing cars blind you ? 

Me : Yeah

Voice : Think about it. Here is when you are blinded by the light as much as the dark. 

Me : Deep.

Voice : When you think you are on a spiritual quest, you carry a very strong identification of what is good and what is bad. And much to your surprise, it's your quest for 'light' that keeps you away from from seeing real light.   

 

Your identification to light and dark keeps you blinded. Both belong to falseness. When you are beyond both, you will see real light. 

Me : But, without judgement of good and bad, how do I know I am on the spiritual path ?

 

Voice : When you think you are on the spiritual path, know that is the time you have gone off the path. There is no path. There is no distinction of good and bad. In effect, there is nowhere to go and nothing to do and no one to become.  

When real light appears, even what you regard now as light, will disappear.     

Me : Wow

Voice : Remember, one can get lost in the light as much as in the dark. When you realise this, you can truly...just be.
