Pleasure and fear

Notice, fear is something inherent in this sense of duality, in this sense of separation. So, as long as the illusion of an identity separate from life, separate from existence remains, fear remains.

Fear is something that bothers. It's something that disturbs. It's something that afflicts. Fear is a very dense, heavy form of suffering, but that suffering is something inherent in this psychological being, in this false identity.

So, we can't get rid of fear, as a "person." We abandon the illusion of "personhood," and that's the end of fear.

There is a constant internal movement in this "sense of person," in this "sense of an I," of a "separate identity," which has already become clear, for it, the difficulty of dealing with fear. So, to overcome this, it lives in a constant, continuous search for pleasure. Then, it will always try to replace fear with pleasure. It will always seek to find more satisfaction, more accomplishment, more fulfillment in pleasure, to ward off fear, and that doesn't solve it!

So, we actually have fear and pleasure as two sides of one single coin. This coin is called "sense of separateness." Your pain… your pain, which is the pain of fear, which you try to overcome through satisfaction, through the fulfillment of pleasure, this is the same coin. The coin of the sense of separation, of that sense of separateness.

So, it is inherent to this duality, to this "me," to experience pleasure and fear, to live in this constant search to ward off fear, in this constant search for pleasure. So, we are dealing with something inherent to this psychological sense of being, this false center. Thus, the ego is basically that. We can also replace the word "fear" with "pain." Then, here we have pleasure and pain or pleasure and fear.

We can go beyond that, we can understand what this represents, and that is the way of setting free or liberating from this condition of pleasure and pain or pleasure and fear. When we are dealing with pleasure and fear or pleasure and pain, we are dealing with something that is part of the illusion, of this "sense of separation." So, Enlightenment, Awakening, or the Blossoming of your Real Nature is the end of this.

When my Master appeared, he showed me that Liberation was in the recognition of the Truth about who I Am, and this recognition is the end of the illusion of who I believed to be. So, that's what we're dealing with you. The recognition of the Truth about Yourself is the end of the illusion, of the idea, of the belief, of the image you have about who you are.

So, if we have a real interest in the Truth of who we are, we are already mature enough for Happiness, for the end of fear. Fear is present, I repeat, in this "sense of separation." So, the cause of all this, the reason for all this, for this constant search for pleasure and escape from fear, is in this illusion: in the illusion of this false "me." That's basically it. It's basically like this.
