Protecting illusion from change demands sacrifice of life, while seeming to 'make safe'

Glad to meet you.

I intuit that the process of corruption is self-correcting but that the nature of corruption is identification in partial, false or distorted and illusory sense of self and world. FROM such identity we operate as if to control our own life - which is itself a corruption.

Jesus parable of the tenant farmers and the absent Master, applies.

So while I share in the identification in the world as a bias. distortion or masking over the true Word, I am active in noticing and observing my own thought and emotional reaction, as a willingness of uncovering truth, rather than a defence of what I have been trained or conditioned to accept and identify true.

At this level, our experience is a gift unto our Self, but in the 'matrix' of a mythic or narrative self played out as real, it can seem to be a compelling personal conflict  - indeed a life and death experience.

Struggling within a failed or unsupported narrative - even in attempt to retain it as a 'Reset' to a more controllable (but dead) system, is engaging in the level of effects instead of releasing such identity to Cause or Source - that can be witnessed to by the renewing of your mind (and world). That the old habit is a deeply learned habit means growing a willingness to always begin now - rather than continue narrative assumptions.

Everyone has their own way of embracing this process for it is in life and not in my or anyone else's articulation. It feels like Compression and is a refinement back to who we are, but reacting against the Call, as if it is the violation of our private movie rights, sets up self-reinforcing feedback loops of conflict.

It can be said their are two Calls within our mind; the call to segregative self as self-will and its experience, and the call to healing or reintegrative being - in which the self becomes transparent to its Source. So although there is a Cosmic 'Peep Oh!', of forgetting and remembering, it isn't binary or circular but spiralling to cycles of expansion and compression that open perspectives and seed new experience. However truth simply and only Is,regardless the capacity of the mind of Self-differentiation - and its progeny.

Hope as an expression of faith in life is an expression of connection and alignment in truth - and as such of a different nature to hope set against fears that are expressions of collapse or loss of life to cynicism and despair.

Finding our balance and following the balance points, must release the mind of what we think should be, in order to feel and know the qualities of what is truly Current. The 'ego' always seeks to immediately define what is, in terms that support and reinforce its narrative - which is set over self-contradictions. I feel that these conflicts are not able to be maintained or compartmentalised and juggled as before, and so they are all coming up from the 'Deep'. and revealing of disclosing foundations that are disturbing, and yet without substance. But while we are framed by disturbance, we mask in narrative evasions, and have the experience of it. Looking at or on the disturbance serves a releasing of investment in its themes or archetypes and identities - for we give these, and receive in like measure. Casting out the conflict of self as drama set in a world outside, as a 'not now' to the Call to heal.

So the mind of 'not now' operates a dissociation and fragmentation in 'time', Set or even locked down in the body as the distance of 'space'. Einstein said he found action at a distance spooky. But resonance operates instantly as matching frequency signatures that undo or momentarily collapse the belief we have become a ghost in a machine (world). Every such experience witnesses to an order that is not IN the world, and yet is within us, and also revealing us within a Greater Communication. 

Releasing points of identification within the 'world', frees to recognise or identify truly - as a resonance of being rather than matching of image and form, for the latter can be masked in or identified in - as if to possess and be possessed by them.

It would not be kind to support self-illusion beyond its tipping point. Protecting illusion from change demands sacrifice of life, while seeming to 'make safe'.
