Becoming Real
To remove the illusion of immature minds in regard to this world,
they have to be told that they are different from the body.
It is enough if you say, you are everything, all-pervading…
Hence it must be said that
this world is real.
— Ramana Maharshi

The ultimate test of the family is not whether it provides safety and predictability, but whether or to what degree each person can leave it, freely, and return, freely, as a larger person.
~ James Hollis, Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life

The world is as it is because of you and me, what we do, and the false beliefs, mindsets, narratives and ideologies that rule us from within. One of those false narratives is how we are bad/sinful at the core, can’t be good on our own, and need to be saved from ourselves.
