She:
“The utter despair that spreads with the passage of time. I do not know when acceptance of failure will be complete but it has started. I can only pray that when I accept fully that there is no “the one” to be found, I’ll finally find some relief.”
Me:
Indeed, utter despair that spreads with the passage of time…
Please understand that Time is Despair. As we are taught to live “in time” – time being fear – how can we be other than desperate? And of course, as “time goes”, our despair grows exponentially. Thus, TO LIVE “IN TIME” IS THE GREATEST FAILURE…Ego can survive only in time, can you see that? By definition, ego is failure, so once you drop the idea of time, ego begins to gradually dissipate. The Real You cannot fail, AS IT IS LOVE, and when you realize the illusionary aspect of ego – which is a hell of an undertaking, as ego is unspeakably cunning!!!! – you realize that You Are The One to be found.
This mechanism I write about is childishly simple, or impossible to get – because what most likely happens, is that your ego will dismiss these words as rubbish…
Separation – Ego – hates Oneness. Separation hates Joy. Happiness is the greatest foe to ego, believe me, as when you are happy ego cannot survive…
I repeat: NO TIME, NO EGO. “I´ll finally find some relief” – is ego´s self-decepting voice.
“Finally”… – meaning uncertainty, somewhere on the road of time…
THE FINAL IS NOW, EVERY MOMENT! Now is the moment to “make it final”, that is, TO BEGIN – to make your statement, in silence.
So if you are to find some relief, it has to be NOW – along with these words of mine.

He says:
To experience and appreciate the “life force” within our breath is the greatest source of personal peace, because living within the conscious feeling of this power will tame our wandering mind and allow us to be who we really are – our true self – in peace and love.
The gift of breath is everything – the beginning and end of human life. This is not something to be taken for granted, but is a reason, every moment of our life, to feel appreciation and infinite gratitude.
Those who are motivated from the longing and thirst within, will find the way – it is their destiny.
This is a life long journey and we have this whole life to practice. The results DO come but perseverance is the key.
All dreams come true – in their own time.
Me:
What you say here is apt and true.
It is not my intent to be “picky”, there are some small details I would like to shed some light on.
You say :
This power (life force) will tame our wandering mind.
Who is taming who here? Can we successfully control, attempting to “tame” this wandering mind, and think that our endeavour will have any real effect…?
Of course, we can tame it for a while, we can kind of try to turn the mind numb or make it pliable through different methods – orthodox or less orthodox…Like breathing, meditation, deep reflection, or through alcohol, drugs or whatever kind of addiction.
The very endeavour to tame, enhances the already inherent dichotomy of the mind. Our intent, that is, the very act of taming, creates in this case even more inner conflict, can you see this…?
I am not so sure that “those who are motivated from the longing and thirst within, will find the way”. Give it a thought:
Who is thirsty and longing within us…? Who “finds” the way…? The way from “where” to “what”…?
Can you see that the very longing and thirsting entity is Mind itself…? That its dichotomy separates the longing from the “longed-for”, the witness from the witnessed…?
Mind is the outcome of duality, so how can mind ever grasp anything real, as long as it remains in the domain of the dual…?
Further on you say:
“This is a life long journey and we have this whole life to practice.”
Of course it sounds seemingly true. But the thing is that if we have “the whole life to practice”, it also means that we also have time to procrastinate. When we know “we have time” we perpetually escape the very problem – mind – postponing it sometime in the future…But bad news…Future doesn´t really exist…as future is another side of Now…
If we have “time” it means that we indulge in self-complacency, avoiding the real problem NOW. After all that is what most people do, hoping time solves anything…It doesn´t. We ascribe Time a significance it doesn´t have…
TIME EXISTS AS A WAY OF ESCAPING THE REAL PROBLEM.
Time is escaping sorrow.
The so-called results must – again – be felt now, when we have the guts to stay with the problem.
Perseverance is many times another word for resistance, projection and refusal to face and confront the most flagrant problem – our mind.
Let me know if these words reach out to you!
