People tend to think that their inner world has significance only to themselves. Actually, it affects a lot more. There are very subtle energies circulating there – energies that affect the unseen.

With experience a person comes to see that within every desire there is its opposite. Within his wants and desires is the inevitability of inner conflict. Only with that realization will one have sufficient motivation and power to seek and effect an exit from that torturous prison.

Why don’t we find out what is important, and go to it? Do you think for instance, that if there was something reallyimportant - it would be a different thing for you, than for me?
That’s like a Zen Koan - worth pondering!

The problem isn't what we don't know - it's what we think we know. That mass of information and experience you tend to take as 'you'. All of which simply does not add up! You want to be free of it. But, within that confusion is all the material that you 'think' from, and have your sense of 'I' within. Without that ignorance - 'you' do not exist.
That ignorance is the giant issue. It's who you think you are.

It's nonsense, it's illusion, all within the darkness.
If you put the light of observation on all of that it has the effect of dissolving the pictures that were held together with, as I sometimes say, 'scotch tape and spit'. Even a little light starts to melt it. Separate, look back at it - and get a smile on your face.

When a person reaches the point where they can no longer identify themselves within their right and their wrong, they become 'nobody'. But that's the absolute reality! Your personal 'somebody' is sustained, exclusively, in your right and wrong, should and shouldn't and 'could be' etc. That's who you 'think' you are while functioning at that level.

When the life leaves the body, the energy of the spirit still remains in the electronic body, the psyche - what is called the Soul. Something survives from the caterpillar into the butterfly - the spark of life.
While it’s in the human body, that spark creates an, as if, ‘identity’: “I am a circus man, I am a father of eight, I am this, I am that, I have this, I have that - and that’s who ‘I am’! Someone says ‘Tzvika’ - andI know they are talking to me!”
It’s a false identity

We’re talking about the ’heavy’ - the world you are living in - that you have some kind of picture of. Are you going to struggle to hold on to your false identity, no matter what, because you still want to be ’somebody’, and get god knows what out of life?
THE ONLY THING YOU CAN REALLY ’GET OUT OF LIFE’
IS AN EVOLUTIONARY SOMETHING - A REAL GROWTH OF UNDERSTANDING!

When you’re IDENTIFIED with something, you DON’T remember yourself. Your ’I’ is in what you’re identified with. It’s one thing to be AWARE - knowing what the mind, the emotions are doing, what the body is sensing, to be aware NON-CRITICALLY – and it’s quite another thing to be IDENTIFIED with it, calling it ’I’. Because, when you do that, YOU are not really present, not remembering your Self.

‘The real difference between madness and enlightenment is a question of identification’. You get stolen if you’re identified - it’s madness. They don’t always lock you up; after all they can’t lock up the whole world!
If you are capable of ‘separation’, then you see what you see and what you don’t see, you don’t see; you understand what you understand and what you don’t understand you don’t understand. Whether you understand or not, you still ‘are’- and that’s the essential thing! There’s the ‘that’ and there’s the ‘you’ Patience! It’s very scientific, it’s the ultimate.
