There is no "you" who can be awake

More from Felipe Oliviera

There is no "you" who can be awake or is not awake. All that is perceived or conceived is absolutely impersonal while, due to identification with a person and a body, imitation, habit and inattention, we go around ascribing individual identities and powers to every being we encounter or imagine. These bodies and thoughts are manifestations of consciousness. By imagining a person who is separate from this consciousness suffering arises and all kinds of teachings and activities arise to help the person to be free. It is not possible for a person to be free. The person IS the prison. When all has been tried unsuccessfully attention is turned onto consciousness itself and the spiritual evolution mind game comes to a peaceful halt.
