Time is false...

It is the clinging to the false that makes
the true so difficult to see.

Once you
understand that the false needs time and
what needs time is false, you are nearer
the Reality, which is timeless, ever in the
now.

Eternity in time is mere repetitiveness,
like the movement of a clock.

It flows from
the past into the future endlessly, as empty
perpetuity.

Reality is what makes the present
so vital, so different from the past and future,
which are merely mental.

If you need time to
achieve something, it must be false.

The real
is always with you; you need not wait to be
what you are.

Only you must not allow your
mind to go out of yourself in search.

When you
want something, ask yourself: do I really need
it? and if the answer is no, then just drop it.
