Most significant secrets we attempt to hold can be a sense of autonomy and pride. The theory or feeling that you will be critical in an impressive way, that you will be loved among a particular person, a thief is supplying you with special attention, these are some of the ego’s very subtle secrets. We’re attempting to hide our Divine Self and they are playing all these different games, which are most often very upsetting. It is pretty depressing plus it really doesn’t go anywhere, so we attempt to get scraps of special love, attention and recognition to prop ourselves up.
We work so faithfully at becoming “better people”, at gaining greater intelligence and much more skills. We should be liked more and be a little more popular. The entire self-help industry is centered on improving the self so you can turn into a better you. That is another trick we secretly play on ourselves, thinking we have to keep spinning our wheels looking to become better. This self-improvement game is the one other secret we could to learn to let go of. It is very relaxing once you start to understand you do not have to become any benefit than you are actually. You had been created perfect. It’s not at all through self-improvement which you find peace but through self-acceptance.
As I worked with A Course in Miracles, I saw that there would have been a anxiety about divine love i believe. I realized this became the ego’s concern with losing itself. The ego is fearful of being exposed and being seen as a puff of nothingness. That’s the anxiety about intimacy. We speak about this fear in relationships, which is sometimes projected as nervous about sexual intimacy, but it is a legitimate nervous about dropping our persona, our mask of individuality. It is the fear of getting swept away by the glorious love, a passion so powerful that none of us can even imagine something as glorious and powerful!
For me, those are the big secrets, because it doesn’t start off with this great awareness. It always commences with feeling just like you do a problem, whether you’ve masturbated, stolen something, mistreated somebody, or there’s in your thoughts that you’ve judged as so hideous that you simply don’t even need to be realistic, you need to be done with it and push it of awareness.
Underneath those memories and thoughts, is the thought that were separated. This can be the “secret” we hide. It is actually an impossible belief, but we presume that it is true; We now have judged it as horrific and possess pushed out of awareness. All unconscious guilt emanates from this belief in separation. In addition to being you undoubtedly give yourself up to the miracle, you are feeling those hidden beliefs and secrets are increasingly being washed away and you also finally face this hidden belief in separation!
