Here, separation, division, and individuation are illusion, or maya . God, soul, or spirit is inside - beyond thought, beyond desire and emotion. This creates a value system which emphasizes ego-loss and subordination of self to the grand design. Life then takes on a deterministic flavor, which breeds resignation. You live out your karma, hoping for a better next life, which eventually will bring you to the final reward - getting off the wheel of rebirth and death, out of illusion, into oneness or the void.
Truth is eternal and unchanging.
You must get out of your own way and participate in the flow of life by not resisting your destiny. For example, if the conflicts of sexuality bind your energy, then renounce sex. If you are mechanically led by pleasure, renounce it. Also, turn your face away from negativity - root out anger, spite, envy and, of course, violence. Carl Jung aptly saw that when a person or a culture accentuates one aspect of life, its opposite thrives in the unconscious.
