Walking joyfully
in the ultimate dimension,
walk with your feet,
not with your head.
If you walk with your head,
you'll get lost.

Mind lives in self created deceptions, deluded by maya. Mind is too easily satisfied with knowledge with its words and counter words. Mind create problems and wordy knowledge puzzle us. And we are caught in those wordy explanations because we think that unless we have the explanations, how can we live? Thus the mind keep running like a frightened ghost.
But so long as we deceive ourselves in any form- wordily or imagined, there can be no total freedom. So long as the mind is capable of creating and imposing upon itself delusion, it obviously separates itself from collective or integrated understanding and so stays imprisoned in self- centeredness.
For thousand of years man has had the illusion that one can attain freedom through knowledge, but he could not. Because no man can ever attain the state of total freedom by accumulating a knowledge which is not that about himself, the self- knowledge.
Total freedom can be realized only through self- knowledge. And self-knowledge is, seeing ourselves exactly as we actually are, undistorted by any interpretation or judgement. It is only when we attain it, our mind becomes quiet, still. And once this happens, we attain that state of miracle, known as total freedom.

There is only Consciousness - ever remaining luminous, or from time to time dimming Itself in the endless changing ‘states’. Liberation is not a total obliteration of the individuality and its universe, but it is a state of abiding in the Reality, the Self, or pure Consciousness... the state, once reached, from which nobody ever returns.
