Our focus seems to usually be just limited enough to jump from one idea and belief to another, always managing to avoid focusing on any inconsistencies at the same time and place. To see, side by side, the inconsistencies within the system would be to realize that the system itself is inconsistent, irrational, and therefore illusory. The only difference is the scope of your focus, your awareness. It cannot be completely released without also releasing all of the layers upon layers of beliefs and experiences which rest upon it. They are all interconnected.
Life is an identity crisis.
And while we experience it, we believe it. Most of us also shift occasionally into an awareness more expansive than that of our normal waking identity. At whatever level of awareness we find ourselves in the moment, we identify ourselves to BE that limited awareness, along with all the beliefs and experiences that fall under our shifting focus. But when we desire and attempt to choose a more expansive belief of our ourselves, often it seems that nothing changes. But it IS a dream nonetheless.
