' An invitation beyond the mind '...

“The true spiritual urge or yearning is always an invitation beyond the mind.

That’s why it’s always been said that if you go to God, you go naked or you don’t go at all.

It’s the same for everybody.

You go in free of your accumulated knowledge, or you are forever unable to enter.

So an intelligent mind realizes its own limitation, and it’s a beautiful thing when it does.

When you stop holding on to all of the knowledge, then you start to enter a different state of being.

You start to move into a different dimension.

You move into a dimension where experience inside gets very quiet.

The mind may still be there chatting in the background, or it might not, but consciousness is no longer bothering itself with the mind.

You don’t need to stop it.

Your awareness just goes right past that wall of knowledge and moves into a very quiet state.”
