Don't Act Against Hatred, Act For Love

Monday 13 November 2023

Pretend You Are Your Own Best Friend

A man describes a very dark time in his life. He's had glimpses of his true nature but still gets lost in the separate self. He asks, after all his effort, what is there to do? Rupert says there may be dark moments but there are still these lucid moments of understanding, which means you are able to stand back from the darkness. Pretend you are your own best friend by deflecting your attention away, and stand back and observe whenever you can. That's the way to go. The other way is complete surrender. Find friends who share your understanding.
