The mirage is mind itself
People ask that if their sense of physical reality is only a projection of mind, then why are attitudes hard to change? One perspective invites you to consider why you resist the unconditional love that comes easily.
To begin to discern nothing exists but the mind is a meaningful stage in raising awareness. Just as a blade cannot cut itself and a light cannot light itself, consciousness cannot perceive itself through the mind. A mirage is unaware of its essence. Notice where your misperception limits you. Choose to allow expansion.
