intresting,
what if i found a few mirrors and arranged them right, i could light the room with my flashlights

so is taking off the glove like developing a strong intuition/understanding perhaps, or is it like a form of ESP?

It is a highly refined sense of intuition. But to use it, the mind must remain still, otherwise it will add color to the image of what you see. This is where your human weaknesses will become visible to you.

You have to find the eye of the storm within yourself. The exact center where a feather would fall straight down. Now you're seeing with the heart. Outside of the swirling malstrom your physical eyes see. They can't see too well in all that turbulence. Always got something in one eye or another.

The heart never blinks once opened. It loves all things equally and without reservation. Even the vile and profane. Because the heart sees the connectivity of it all.

To divide one thing against another is what the mind does. To declare something good or evil is to cut God in half and say one half is better than the other.

If you build a campfire, they will come.

The dark desert is the mind. The campfire you are attracted to are the boundries of that mind.

Nice, but not good enough.
I am afraid.

Of the darkness or the light?

Fear keeps you alert. Part of your built-in survival skills. It forces your attention to a point. You'll need to learn how to do that on your own if you ever want out of this world.

I almost want to go back to the way I was ... asleep.
Fear is the mind killer.

xexon

The mind should be killed, because it's the problem.

You don't kill the mind really, you only drag it out of the driver's seat. You still need it to navigate this world. The idea is to make it an advisor rather than a dictator.
