Our mind and ego are sneaky, they want us to believe that we can change without deep conscious investigation. That’s because they want it to go away.
If we go deeper than our mind and ego, they risk losing control over us. This is how awakening begins.
Questioning of our beliefs can be a lifetime journey for many as promises made by beliefs often fail to produce results.
Imagination is a great friend to beliefs as it supports their existence. The problem is that people confuse imagined ideas as the truth. Truth is the conscious recognition of what is real.
Religions are not evil, but they do tend to avoid the deeper truths in consciousness. They are basically a business that survives off donations and fail to deliver on the promises of their beliefs. Imagination is a strong factor in religion.
The journey to our awakening can be a bumpy ride as belief after belief dissolves under the microscope of life’s reality.
Slowly it may dawn on some that believing is not enough and the promises of the bible cannot be believed into reality.
It is a great day when we decide to leave behind the world of imagined truth and decide to enter the world of self-trust and inner reality.
On this day doubt will begin to die.
