Some random reflections (so, what else is new?).
In the book of John it is written, “Everybody’s got somethin’ to hide ‘cept for me and my monkey!!” [White Album, Track 13.] Who was his monkey? It was John Lennon. He acknowledged he was the one Spirit looking through John’s eyes. They say he often acted like a jerk. He didn’t care because his human was taking the heat for it. Wouldn’t you think a guy like that would have no problem letting go of something? I can withdraw from my imaginary character, Vin and practice sitting in complete acceptance of everything. I hope it doesn’t mean I turn into a jerk!
The farther we pull back from the fictional ego toward that place of silence where wisdom and surety live, the less these base thoughts will matter to us.
