Then the temptation is the strongest to shake our finger at the world & blame all of "them" & "those circumstances" for disappointing us. And if that doesn't appease our inner struggle than the blame is turned inward...again & again & again. Trying desperately to find the source of the incursion. For if we can only find that crucial error or mistake or flaw then we can fix it & make it all right. We can try once again to rebuild the castle in the sky that just keeps disintegrating with every breath of wind. And finally...if we are fortunate....it will all be seen for what it truly is - that we are acting out a play the has been scripted for us by a family, a culture, a religion, a school who all believe that same ultimate story. When we face this opportunity the only thing we can really do to end the inner hell is to stop protecting ourselves from what we fear most, to stop promoting the story of who we believe we want to be & to stop projecting our drama onto the world & people around us. Here & only here lies freedom.
Protection, promotion & projection. These are the 3 P's that true self inquiry shatters into a million pieces. For when we begin to consciously seek this truth, every attempt we make to engage the world will mirror back to us our most deeply imbedded fears. As the pretense of our carefully fabricated facade begins to decay we will often find ourselves in the hopeless situation of realizing that we cannot piece it back together.
