A Case of Mistaken Identity
A Case of Mistaken Identity

There is only one reason that we suffer…

Mistaken identity.

When we identify with the separate self (the ego) the inevitable result is suffering.

And of course we do this all the time. (“I am stressed… I am anxious… I am sad… I am depressed…”).

What we tend to do next is go outside to look for the cause.

Who Are You Really?
Who Are You Really?

In order to really explore this question, we need to first rule out who we are not. See, the thing is we can not figure out the answer to this from the perspective of who we are not. The character on the screen can not tell you about your true self as it is just a character on the screen. Simon, this body/mind, is just an activity of Consciousness and can not know Consciousness.

This Spiritual Stuff Matters
This Spiritual Stuff Matters

I often get asked something along the lines of the following:

“What is it with all the spiritual stuff Si?”

And really I don’t like to talk about it too much unless I think the person asking is genuinely interested, in which case I’ll normally point them to an article or video. There’s nothing more I like than talking about our true nature but I’m realistic about the prospect of converting an old football friend to the spiritual path in Sainsbury’s.

Time To Wake Up?

Today more and more people are waking up which is great news as we are in a mess. Mental health is in crisis, the planet is in crisis. It is said that no problem can be solved from the same understanding from which it was created and this is why I believe the answers lie in a spiritual awakening. One person at a time. Are you ready? Book a wake up call.

There is only one reason that we suffer… Mistaken identity. When we identify with the separate self (the ego) the inevitable result is suffering. And of course we do this all the time. (“I am stressed… I am anxious… I am sad… I am depressed…”). What we tend to do next is go outside to look for the cause. We go outside and look at the situation or circumstance that we believe is causing our distress. Or we go outside and look at our “thinking” about the circumstance that has triggered our distress. But what if we have all this wrong? How about asking, “what is it that is suffering?” “Who is this “I am” that is suffering?” And if you really stop and look you will notice there is a deeper sense of being that is aware of this suffering “I am”. What you will see is that there is the apparent “I” who is suffering and then there is the “I” who is aware. One is the transient bunch of thoughts and conditioning we believe ourself to be and one is the infinite, unchanging, peace that we are. We just innocently got the true Self and the separate self mixed up. Again. A case of mistaken identity. SiCollins.com

Spiritual Stuff Matters. I often get asked something along the lines of the following: “What is it with all the spiritual stuff Si?” And really I don’t like to talk about it too much unless I think the person asking is genuinely interested, in which case I’ll normally point them to an article or video. There’s nothing more I like than talking about our true nature but I’m realistic about the prospect of converting an old football friend to the spiritual path in Sainsbury’s. However, I am going to use this article to answer that question now… The reason I pursue spiritual teaching and writings is because I think it is the most important conversation there is for both individuals and the world. it’s not woo woo hippy nonsense, it is the most practical inquiry there is. So much of what we believe, in fact I would say almost everything we believe, is 180 degrees from truth. Chief among them is the belief that we are separate objects (human beings). It is this belief that leads to the epidemic of collecting more objects (stuff) in the pursuit of security and happiness. From the perspective of the separate self this makes perfect sense of course. If you believe you are separate then you will be insecure because all the separate self is is a collection of thoughts, conditioning and beliefs. And as thought is transient then insecurity is assured. No amount of stuff is going to cure that. By contrast the spiritual being I point to (AKA the True Self, Consciousness, Awareness) is 100% peace, happiness, love, and as such does not need anything. The infinite awareness does not need anything. And the good news is that whether you understand what I am writing about, whether you believe me, or if you think it is spiritual hippy nonsense you are 100% spiritual. And on some level you know this because all of us at one time or another have experienced it. Even if only a glimpse. Some lucky ones live in a sunny country while others live in colder climes but the sun shines on regardless of where you are. But then the ego kicks in and says “That is all very well and good but I need to pay the rent and the bills”.... Read full blog post at sicollins.com
