I am surfing the internet when the lack of sleep last night and the earlier than usual arisal this morning seem to overcome me. I gently close my eyes while waiting for the computer to load the new search I have initiated. Almost instantly I go deeply into inner space. The outer world and my internet task fade quickly away, so quickly that I wonder why I need return. Why not just plunge into the invitational peace cavern and stop the participation in the world of illusion? "Why not?" I ask myself, again and again, as the luscious darkness of inner bliss takes me deeper by the nanosecond.
The answer surfaces and take me by surprise, "Because it would be selfish."
If moving into the All-in-All and surrendering to the Infinite Isness from which we originated is 'selfish', and we live in a culture where 'selfish' is something to avoid, how will we ever ascend???
Using the ever-dependable system of Thought Karate to discover where and when this idea originated, I find I have brought it with me into this life. No doubt ONE of the reasons I am still alive "here".
My new thought, you ask? "Wherever I am, the infallible guidance of HeartMind will assist me in freeing myself from all undesired illusions, including the concept that 'selfish' is always a bad thing." So be it.
