Believe In Change

It is grasping for security in all its inward and outward forms
which limits the perspective of enlightenment and maintain an
inwardly divided condition which is the cause of all suffering and
confusion.

You must want to know the truth more than you want to feel secure in
order to fully awaken to the fact that you are nothing but Awakeness
itself.

Shortly after I began teaching I noticed that almost everyone coming
to see me held a tremendous number of superstitious ideas and beliefs
that were distorting their perceptions and limiting their scope of
spiritual inquiry.

What was most surprising was that in almost all cases, even those
who had deep and profound experiences of spiritual awakening
continued to hold onto superstitious ideas and beliefs which
severally limited the depth of experience and expression of true
awakening.
