1. Behind the Mask
October 30, 2021
Who are YOU? People are becoming more and more hidden behind
their outer masks as well as lost behind the inner masks. Are your
masks making it too dark to see who you are? Walking in the dark,
dimly lit street last night, I passed a human (?) up on the sidewalk
wearing a Black mask with a black ‘hoodie’ covering the rest of their
head. Not long ago, as a child seeing that mysterious creature, I would
have had nightmares. Because of ‘world lockdown’ in most places the
past two years, people have worn the masks of fear and cluelessness fueled by the perception
of death.
The mind of the body and who you think you are, walks in hypochondriacal fear of the
unknown behind the unnecessary masks of life. The mind becomes the enemy
as you become its prisoner for life. There is death of the body, and not death of
the spirit of consciousness. The mind is a prison of perceptions that have little
or nothing to do with who you really are. This is the moment in life to break out
and let go of the masks to be free to extrapolate the blessings that are waiting
for your release from the dark that you su
ff
er from. Refusing to see
the little light in life is to stop being a seeker of getting closer and
closer to that light.
To be so called ‘enlightened’ is quite ordinary if you move into the
lights that are just waiting there. Habits are good things or bad
things that determine your position in the light, dark of seeing the
opening dawn of your heart and perceptions becoming reality. Who
you are not has become the tattered cloths of disguise that you
wear. In the Christian religion, Jesus speaks of his second coming
to liberate all who accept him.
You might want to open your perception and realize that 2nd coming might just be
you awakening and seeing the light of who you really are behind those
accumulated masks of deception. If that’s not how you see it, it doesn’t matter if
you experience the ‘light within’ that is always there in your heart and it’s ‘fumes’
that impregnate the mind. You are the wonder of the angels talked about in many
ways in all the scriptures since time immemorial. Let go of the negative and free the positives
that awake your vulnerable heart. There is a plan for a miracle, and guess what? It’s you in the
light! Most are not ‘seekers’ of truth, but with apathy. Those are removing their masks to see
the light will be ‘
fi
nders’. Find the YOU behind the masked perceptions that you
cling to. Let go of the masks!
