"Believe in yourself"

How many times have you heard this said to you?

How many actually did?

Are you really open to the possibilities against what other people tell you?

Are you able to grasp what that is the infinite, beyond this self, this being, this body which you now inhabit?

But that's not a fair question, is it?

Because your true self extends far beyond what you normally know, and is told about.

Once you are in the grasp of this true self, there is only one question:

Are you in grasp of an ego, which will disappear at the slightest touch of provocation?

Or are you in touch with something you cannot explain but know with the depths of your being that nothing really matters anymore, not in the way you used to think?

From that point onwards, You, cease to exist.

Oh yeah, the art of believing?

If you truly are with something, you don't have to believe it. Believe is intent riding on a premises. An intent to align with that premise. That premise has not been proven, and so that's where you really stand.
