From a friend.

What if…..

What if our True Nature is itself appearing AS every personal and impersonal experience; always displaying only Itself in all its various modes as: consciousness, bodies, matter, objects, forces, energies, mind, thoughts, emotions, feelings, images, perceptions, identities, dreams and illusions?

There is no way to gradually get closer to or to become our True Nature, because every condition, state and experience is what our True Nature already is.

A gold necklace is already gold, and need not do anything further to become all gold.

Likewise, all experiences, bodies, matter, mental, emotional and perceptual experiences are already what our True Nature is.

When not realizing this, that too is our True Nature manifesting as a “mind not knowing this”.

However your state, condition or situation happens to be; that is exactly how your True Nature is appearing, including the illusory feeling of selfhood as being a personal “me”!

Geesh…. how much shorter could one’s path be? 😉
