Here's why; when you ask yourself why your mindset has been dominated by an illogical life and world view, what do you come up with? That it was convenient to your life at the time? That's practical. But still, more than that was at play. If your parents held you to believe what they believe as they raised you, you've been at a disadvantage much of your life. Their views, especially if they taught them to you before you were the age of five, you undoubtedly took them as your own unquestioningly, parents, teachers, mentors inside and outside of your family. They all formed in your impressionable, eager-to-learn-and-please mind. They made you. But one inner spark, one lonely ember of your true deep self remained.
I call that ember Eternalism.
The part of you, the very essence of you, is alive and strong even as you have been obedient to forces you may have felt were beyond your control. This is the YOU that emerges when you are truly unbiased and inquisitive in your life, the part that emerges when you have a thirst for REAL knowledge, unafraid and innocent, the YOU that is beyond the systematic, dogmatic, problematic, spastic, bombastic blather of this world. Beyond the moments of fear and doubt. Beyond all assumptions. Beyond all assumptions of the past and future.
BEYOND THIS LIFE.
