Until thoughts arise from Silence,
I vow not to think.
Until words arise from Wisdom,
I vow not to speak.
Until actions arise from Love,
I vow not to lift a finger.
My Divine Mother,
purify my heart.
Please bring peace
to those I've hurt.
Those I've hurt,
please forgive me.
I would rather die
than hurt you again.
I love you dearly,
I love you completely,
I love you more
than you will ever know.
Until I awake,
I vow not to dream again.

These are my vows as I surrendered to Love.

Hope you're well, my friend

When you are awake, there is no I.

"I" is the dream.

Yes, because they coexist.

When you dream, it is I who is weaving/projecting the dream. It stays in the background.

Learn to distinguish either one (the dream or the I) and the other will disappear by itself.

Thank you all for the kind words

Manigma, these words flowed from the heart in a pure moment of sorrow. You're free to pick them apart and analyze them. I have no desire to debate or defend anything.

Rest assured I am neither analyzing nor I wish to debate.

You said there is no "I" in "dream". And I just replied that it is "I" itself weaving/projecting those dreams.

As for your words out of sorrow... those were said by an "I" based on the "dreams" that continued in the background even when you were in the waking state.

Its just like the stars in the sky. They are always there even during the day. But you don't see them because of the brightness of the Sun. You only see them in the darkness of the night.

So are your "dreams"... and is your "I".

When you are sleeping, the dreams come in the foreground and the "I" hides in the background.

And when you are in the so called waking state, "I" comes in the foreground and "dreams" shift/continue in the background.

It never ends.

I just tried to pull you out from this loop. Because I thought you wished to be really awake.



PS: You will find no kindness in my words. Because kind words would make you more dull/sleepy instead of waking.

That was a bad joke . It wasn't meant literally.

There's an overused corporate "team building" slogan: There is no "I" in "team". I was playfully jabbing at that phrase.

Thank you for pointing and pulling. Thank you for your unkind words
