Episode description

A listener request for comment on an email:

I think I may have had an epiphany.  Or something.  I’m not sure. 

 I am a container for Mind.  A conduit for Infinite Intelligence.  An individual expression of the animating force of the universe.  It expresses through me. I think and I feel.  Thoughts and feelings come spontaneously, which generate behavior.  I have no control over any of it.  When I’m in a low mood, and behaving accordingly, I just wait it out.  It will eventually pass.  No matter what I am thinking and feeling, whether “good or “bad”, it is not who I am, but a manifestation of a self that does not actually exist.  When I let go of whatever I am thinking and feeling, it allows the Infinite to express though me, and my state changes naturally to one of Love, Peace, and Joy.  I don’t have to upgrade my feelings, or choose a better thought, but simply let everything move through me so my True Self, which is Love and Peace becomes my experience.  I do this effortlessly by simply being aware that I am thinking and feeling.  And this is who I really am – the Experience of Peace, the Expression of Love. 

 BTW, I must tell you.  While reading SANE, I had an awakening, of sorts.  When you wrote “my thoughts are not true” (or something to that effect), I suddenly felt a great relief.  A feeling that everything was suddenly OK.  Because I didn’t have to believe my thoughts, I was FREE, like a great weight had been lifted.  I felt a deep Peace.  A certainty that life was good, that I was OK, and everything was exactly the way it was supposed to be.  That feeling has not left.  It’s been a while now, about two weeks.  That’s why I wrote to you.  I felt so good after that, I was a little confused about the No Control thing.  I still am. I am new to the Three Principles, and new to non-dualism, but something tells me I’ve been searching for this my entire life.
