No-thing...

You can’t turn either towards Consciousness
or away from Consciousness.

In fact, “you” can’t even “turn” at all because
your life is really only a melodramatic story that
Consciousness has been telling Itself.

And your only choice is whether or not you want
to believe in the validity of your story.

As usual, the ego wants to proudly say, “That’s
my story and I’m sticking to it.”

Actually, since you and your story arise
simultaneously, your story is also sticking to
you!

Without the historical framework of your time-
based story, though, “you” are really “no-thing.”

Actually, being “no-thing” might not be such a
bad idea.
