This is true.

And until you see that, you will continue to live within the confines of your conditioning.

Until you realize that your mind’s number one job is to protect the organism, you will still live under the illusion that you are changing, when in fact you are only becoming more entrenched in yourself.

This “event” often propels us into a life of deconstruction.

Scary and beautiful at once.
