We crave transformation, but we resist the necessary destruction. The spiritual truth is stark: The old identity must disappear forever before we can enter a new life. You must be willing to lose yourself to gain everything.
The Illusion of Continuity
Look closely at your own experience. We die in the moment. The second that just passed is gone, dead, never to return. But we don’t see it. Our mind pastes these discrete moments together, creating the illusion of a continuous, linear existence.
Because we fail to pause and truly see the transition, we don’t travel through the gap between two moments into the timeless world. Instead, we remain trapped in the monotonous rhythm of samsara (the cycle of suffering), moving endlessly through the moment rather than into it.
The Clarity of the Center
The secret to breaking this cycle lies in simple, radical awareness:
Once you see the moment through—once you look directly into the silent space between one thought and the next—you see yourself.
This clarity is the flashpoint of freedom. That is the instant you are forever free from your old identityand claim a new life, a new existence. This new life is pure presence, unburdened by the past’s narrative.
The Effortless Script
When you release the old self, your life ceases to be a struggle against fate. In the end, everything happens effortlessly and well.
You realize you are not the struggling author of your destiny, but the perfect instrument: The supreme script that nature needs is being executed through you.
The heavy, burdened “old man” is gone. Now there is only a plan—the flawless unfolding of the universe’s intelligence through your being.
To witness and understand this effortless flow, you must achieve the ultimate detachment: You will only fully understand how your script is being executed if you are free from yourself while you are still alive.
Embrace the death of the ego in this moment, and discover the boundless life that awaits.
