Feeding the illusion

We have silently accepted the status quo.
Without asking why or how we got here we have accepted the dogmas and the rules we have been handed down
We work so hard fighting the illusion and even harder supporting it
The resistance creates duality
The way out is much simpler.
Simply step out.
If we take a step to the side we see the ridiculousness of the vicious circle we are feeding
But if we stop feeding the maya, the illusion of what is then we will stop resisting it as well.
Coming out of the duality we can rest gently in the comfort and peace of one unified consciousness.
Stop feeding the ego, but also stop fighting it.
Acknowledge it and drop it.Let it run its wild ride but don't get caught in it.
If the effort to get us entangled in illusion is fruitless, then it has no point.
It becomes irrelevant.
Look deep and hard into the things we don't want to see.
And then drop them. They are not necessary.
Feel our own truth in our hearts and flow with it.
When we feel the oneness with the world, when we feel the bare truth and notice the vanity of all else we finally find the peace in our own hearts.
Take all the reasons and all the excuses our minds make up, take a good look at them, laugh at them and throw them out.
Take the ideas we hold of ourselves and laugh at that too.
And when we slip and fall back into the roller-coaster of life and under the yoke of the mind laugh at that too.
For as long as we take the mind seriously we will be its slaves.
Free ourselves from the prison of darkness by shattering it to pieces with our laughter of joy. For there is no greater joy than the effort of building our new home.
