Dear gachchy… Why would you feel somber knowing it’s all one Consciousness at play?
If you choose to identify with feelings of Conflict, You, Me, Your Money, My Money, Your Country, My Country, Rich, Poor, Good, Bad, Pleasure, Pain Jealousy, Anger….then aren’t you just creating a belief that that’s how things are for you? – aren’t they just your own projections?
Does a baby have those feelings? no because nothing outside of the babies existence is ever happening, nothing at all. The baby functions all by itself without any input from the baby, it’s the same with nature, and with animals.
So why do humans create scenario’s outside of itself that are not actually happening, because the source of anything comes from thought, so are we to let thoughts dictate our life?
So someone told you there is Conflict, You, Me, Your Money, My Money, Your Country, My Country, Rich, Poor, Good, Bad, Pleasure, Pain Jealousy, Anger…SO IT MUST BE TRUE!!
Separation is felt because someone once said to you that you are separate, and you believed it because you didn’t know any better. We’re not taught the truth about separation by others – we have to discover it for ourself.
The longer you carry your belief around with you – it becomes so well grooved into you. You then mistake this for reality. So you must drop the belief if you want to get out of the groove, that only you yourself have calved out for yourself, and only you can get out.
The game of life is designed to have as many players as possible, when in fact all along it is just one player changing it’s Spacesuit to suit a particular situation.
If you believe in Something – you create it – even though ALL ”Something’s” only exist AS ‘thoughts’ in Consciousness – which is prior to thought.
When I was a fetus in the womb, I had no thoughts of being separate from my mother.
