The First Step We Walk Together is Seeing That No Person Ever Existed - March 26th 2016

Thank you. Always talk miles into... come out and say, 'But actually I still feel I'm a person. Look how you... isn't this hiding?' Many, many years can pass. Not denial. Let's look right now. If the person is real, it must be here, isn't it? There is nothing abstract or difficult that I am saying. Mind might be playing this trick on you, thinking, 'This is so difficult for me' and 'It's getting here.' Simply, very simply, I'm saying that the body is not concerned with money. It is not concerned with relationships. Actually, body is not even concerned with the health of the body, and body is definitely not concerned with freedom, you see.

And yet we have believed that there is... there is one here who is concerned with all of these things. Can we find this one which is concerned with anything at all that says, 'My life has to be a certain way'? Don't go out now. Stay here. Don't go off now because here's where the mind will come and offer you some tricks. Can we find that entity that wants any of these things? And if you cannot find this one, then we cannot have any sense of control, any sense of desire, any sense of aversion, because who do they belong to? See?

So this is the first step that we walk together in a non-existent journey: it is to see that no person has ever existed. Because if it is real, it must be here now and you must be able to introduce it. See? 'Inside my body, three inches below my head, there is this entity which is driving all of this.' Nobody has ever found this except as an idea, except as a belief. So this is the first step that we walk together: to see that no person has ever existed here. It has just been an idea.

That's why I say that if you want to see God pretending to be a person right now, you want to see this play of God pretending to be a person, you can see right now. All you have to do is believe your next thought. Oh, this power of belief is God's power to pretend. To pretend to get trapped, pretend to be bound, pretend to be personal, and then pretend to get out of this, come to a pretend freedom. Because the conditions that have been attached to itself are never true. 'I am...' whatever you attach to this 'I am' using the power of your belief has never really been true. That's why I say: pretending. Pretend bondage and pretend freedom.
