Freedom does not come by improving the self,
but by understanding the illusion of the self.
“The self is a bundle of memories, experiences,
words, ideas, images about itself.
This ‘me’ is always seeking — seeking security,
recognition, continuity, pleasure, permanence.
And in that very seeking is conflict.
The self separates, compares, judges, fears, and clings.
Freedom does not come by improving the self,
but by understanding the illusion of the self.
When the ‘me’ is not — when it is seen completely without argument
— then there is relationship without division, action without conflict,
and a mind that is truly free.”
