Believed Identity Conflict

Confronting Your Liberal Beliefs is the Single Most Important Thing You Can Do at This Time

My comment:

Beliefs make identities that seek vindication for feeling wronged or unsupported. They also en-trance or train our minds to focus within the human experience - where belief operates in place of presence appreciation.
To become aware of beliefs operating is to question this reality-experience - for it is constructed and not an intimate or direct knowing. The mind can and does hide in the forms of what we think we know. It is called masking or person(a).

While the 'wronged' or threatened scenario runs as accepted currency - one's own part in setting it up remains hidden.
Consciousness responsibility is accepting responsibility as the nature of conscious-ness instead of assigning or diverting it in blame (or directed hate).
Awakening to the true freedom of consciousness is not 'of this world' - A world of fear, division, blame and hate - masked in terms of justified identity.
When you take the bait of temptation the hidden hook into reaction operates identity theft - at the level of attetion and allegiance - because you are already identified truly but have become afraid of yielding to true as a result of giving false witness (using others as means to assert a vindicated 'self' specialness).

The power of the mind is evidenced in the world we co-create - but assigned to external agencies or past events. While faith is accorded to the fearfully baited reactive gesture of self-protection, the fight or flight mode shuts down all else to maintain continuity of 'self' power at expense of capacity to re-evaluate the basis from which we act.

The mind in reaction operates then as an automaton - golem or useful idiot - to manipulative agenda operating the same wavelength but somewhat upstream or insider to the games being played out. A true escape may be to relinquish investment in conflict as meaningful while observing the roots of any conflicting event within oneself. While we hate, judge or reject ourself we will meet the same in others. If you recognize another as disturbed and seeking validation - you may open communication of a different order than when 'seeing and reacting' in terms of negative and personally invalidating judgements.

Those who made a layer of special or conditional love to cover over special hate - were more able to hide and hide from the hated - not least by assigning it those who could not or would not 'qualify' - and of course those who are denied or who fail to meet the conditions of acceptance.
I see the breakdown of the mask of special love, to the horror of hate-driven society out in the open (for it runs beneath in any case). But the mask of special hate is a deeper denial of block to open communication within being as between us. For it is the core self beliefs and definition that makes the physical seem to be Cause outside and apart from our true feeling being. Awareness is not only 'thinking and fake emotionalism' given faith, but is one with its fulfilment as the feeling and knowing of being.

Investiture in divorced thinking has its 'reward' as struggle within fear of death. At the dawning of a new era, the cock crows thrice and you notice a stirring of recognition and remembering - welling up within you. This is not what you expected - how you imagined or could have conceived. But it brought you to uncover the roots of a false self as the opening to the uncovering and acceptance of the true.

A story about idiots as if the teller is sane is the narrative assumption of presuming self-special superiority for yourself. We all know how to tell stories... and take the ride when it suits us.

But the centre is indeed not balance if it is defined by polarized extremes. True balance identifies all within embrace and recognition. Where a false attempt to regain balance from the action/reaction of rejection and power struggle is really a suppression and sacrifice of Life-energy or true consciousness for a concept of 'balance' that is dead. So indeed 'centrism' operates killing the heart in a false sacrificial 'balance offered no real support - and given no real appreciation or appreciation - because it is a lip service to 'forms' of conformity and compliance by which to appease or mitigate terror.

You are the casting director of your world - while your 'word' is accorded power to determine 'truth'. All of the characters in your dream are part of you - always. However - the meanings you assigned them are derivatives of an adulterated sense of currency and are not 'built in' nor are you 'locked into' the world of the meanings you made - and find mutual reinforcement for. You are and remain a being of choice as to what you give focus and acceptance to. Focusing in rejection and denial as 'power' plays the role of oppositional will - that does the thing it claims to fight against - but knows not what it does as a result of fear-driven displacements, believed.
