The Stranger Within

The pseudo-self is merely the form structured to hold the drink in place…for it is merely a structure of absence that is able to hold what the world pours within it, but its actual existence remains absent…

The Stanger is the one that has been influencing one’s will to develop the pseudo-self…it is precisely the stranger that is one’s rewritable nature because it is not one’s nature at all but formed habits that showcase themselves as one’s nature…the stranger is these formed habits, the one that one has avoided facing…and in one’s avoidance to face the stranger is precisely what has kept the stranger in control and in power…as this is how the stranger has been able to maintain the wedge between one and I…it is this stranger that influences one to avoid the innate truths by directing one away from honesty…for honesty will reveal the truth and that truth will break the hypnosis the stranger has on one, which will break the strangers control…

The stranger is not evil, but rather naturally frightened and scared…afraid because just like the pseudo-self, it too is an absent existence that echoes within due to its hollow nature…but in wanting to keep control and power it must fool one by projecting it’s true nature of fear, anxiety, comfort, anger, victimhood onto one in order to get one to believe in the pseudo-self, and in that belief get one to adopt and occupy the pseudo-self…

By occupying the pseudo-self and believing the pseudo-self is what one really is, it distracts one’s willingness so that one does not come and displace the stranger to take one’s rightful place where the stranger has positioned itself…for where the stranger sits is the place that has been reserved for one…

For one does not have to fight the stranger, all one must do is to realize the truth of the stranger and reclaim one’s rightful positioning…as the truth will fade the stranger into oblivion…and one will realize that which appeared to be impenetrable gates, and unconquerable mountains easily crumble like the mirage that it has been, and one will see how close the I has been to one this whole time…

Because the stranger within was constructed by the world when one was a child, so that the stranger could then structure the Me and funnel the child into it as it grew into an adult…so when the child became an adult, as an adult the Me felt like one’s natural habitat…for the world structured the stranger to structure the Me, because it is the Me the world needs to function…the Me is the blood source that the world needs to flow within its body…

So, the world plants the stranger within, for the stranger within to construct the Me, in order for one to lose memory of one’s natural state of I and therefore keep one’s reunion with God from happening…

Because one who is with God, who walks with God, who has God within, is one that is no longer a deceived buyer of what the world advertises and sells…and this advertising world needs buyers…therefore the world promotes one to function as the Me, to act, think, behave, and live as the Me…so that the world can be the manufacturer, producer, shipper, and seller of all that which it advertises…when the Me is present, the world can implement consumerism, and through it, it is therefore able to sell racism, nationalism materialism, sexism, antisemitism, which makes the world go round…the world can sell xenophobia, homophobia, transphobia, which makes the world go round…

The Me is the fertile ground for hate and division to be sown and grown…for the grounds of I are infertile for such seeds, for its fertility is for the flourishing and blossoming of the will willing love, honesty, truth, patience, responsibility, discipline, acceptance, and empathy…

The world becomes the gatekeeper of the Me, and sustains the Me by enticing beings to remain occupants of the Me, by making them believe the Me is what they are…if more beings realized the I, the world as we know it now would collapse because the I lives, breathes, and walks with God, which is oriented towards love and unity which counters the world’s current formula of friction and division…

Whereas the world shapes the Me-self, the I releases the true-self…

For if one meditates on the world’s formula, one will see that the present world needs God to be absent to survive…as this world is a place for the godless…the heart of all beings (The I) has a compass that is inclined to pointing towards God, being naturally directed to God, spiritually hungering God, for the spirits proclivity is God…

The world must distort and trick that nature, to deceive the being into believing the worlds baits are worth chasing and biting…as the world is held together by the stranger that has been planted within the child…the stranger which is vulnerable to dissolution by the will that is willing to be honest and truthful…therefore, the stranger has to keep up the deception for a lifetime to remain in control, because it can dissolve at any moment in an instant…

The stranger is merely the small twig with the thin string that holds the elephant in place…by having the Me make the elephant believe it cannot move because of the twig and string in place, it gives the twig and string the powers that it does not possess…the Me makes the elephant hypnotized to think that the twig and thin string are unbreakable, unbeatable, unconquerable when the truth is that it is none of those things…for it cannot do anything to one without one’s belief, without one buying into it…for it has no powers of its own, as it must use one’s own powers against oneself…for it is one’s will that is truly unbreakable, unbeatable, and unconquerable…

As the trick the stranger pulls on one is that it makes one believe that one is what the stranger in truth is, and that the stranger is what one truly is…

Now:

Think, and think honestly…who or what can only survive in a place that is godless? For who or what can have such deceiving powers that are merely a mirage? For who or what needs to use one’s own powers to trick one into forfeiting their powers? For who or what can only be a “king” in a place that is godless?

God’s Presence is always surrounding the world, for the world is built on God’s Earth…this is why the world continues to create a barrier between the world and the nature of the earth…for to be amongst nature, is to see the beauty of the earth, is to be struck by God’s Love, is to witness God’s Presence, it is to breathe God in…

And the world senses this, and has now in desperation not only turned the eyes of beings away from the earth, but also from the world itself, and onto the screen…it is in the screen where the Me can be completely stilled…which ensures that the world can secure itself a little more time for survival in its current iteration…What the screen has done is that it has formed a second layer to the Me within the individual…the individual now not only having a physical Me, but now also having a digital Me, which creates an added layer for one to overcome to get to the stranger…

Nonetheless, just as the truth dissolves the stranger and therefore the Me, and the I is realized into the world…the I dissolves the world, paving the way for the earth and mother nature to return to their rightful place…and maybe allowing a healthier and God-bound world to take root, to grow and develop…
