Say Goodbye to Your “I” and Hello to Freedom
"More important than the search for security is to look in the future." -Francois Gaultier
This is the last place I did not think to find in a million years.
Stuck in a job that I at first took it to fund my art and still provide for my family when they were small. Then, it all sounded so logical.
In addition to that, after a couple of years, it is the " Me " that is no longer working properly, that is, it is not passion, it was completely uncalled for, and the real one, which I was very proud of that.
Which was really weird, because I'm so committed to my own artistic endeavors back to a particular career stage. I thought to myself.
But, hey, it's all been done for music, and on the go, while I was working on my art, and have built up a fan base.
After that, the band broke up.
Suddenly, without a tool to use in order to communicate my artistic message, I was like a ship without a rudder. Work experience and I felt as if I was still alive, a bit of a joke, but I can't remember a zest for longer.
But then, I did a little bit.
Another of the " I " that is in the same time period, were re-discovered by the who, and I always have been, ever since he was a child.
The "I am", which started to write a blog, write a post to inspire others, to discover my story and live my passion. The book was almost finished. People have commented regularly and subscribe to the search results.
This is the " I " to feel fully alive. Absolutely sure of it. It is as if I am doing something good in this world.
In the same way, I have played the guitar, or for producing other artists. The people who told me so, thank you, I made it work.
Hm.
If so, what did one have to be "me" turned out to be in their day to day work? It's the "I" that makes you feel so permanent? It's self-limiting beliefs?
You can say that it is as if I had a " me " in different situations in their life. It really is tapped to the bottom of something.
Have you ever had that feeling?
At the end, I found both the clarity and the sought after to participate in a series of Buddhist lectures in the recent past.
The Buddha said that in ancient times, we stick to a "I am", that is, in fact, there is no such thing as "I", that changes in the clouds that pass above.
The essence of a Buddha, this mind is the capital city of the cause of all human suffering because we hold on to the illusion that it is a "me", and our happiness is more important than anyone else's.
I know it sounds horrible, isn't it? Hang on, someone, anyone, in fact, anyone?
For now, it is time to ask the obvious question, which may be of interest to you.
If the "I" doesn't really exist, he said, who's driving the bus? Who decided that today we are going to celebrate in a blue t-shirt? That will tell you to take a shower and get ready for work?
This is a fair question. (I thought he was the one in the same, for a long period of time, it was the first time he was introduced to me)
However, I have learned that if you really believe that you may have, regardless of the existing stable of "I" is "you", then you will need to point it out, right?! Really like the fridge in the corner of the screen. "Yes, yes, this is the 'I am'."
In order to ensure this, we have made the following exercise.
