YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE SOMEONE
Your belief, your insistence that you have to be someone: it’s up to you, starting now, to find out what this false movement is, in which you say, I must be pleasing to those people so that when they are pleased with me, they will be my friend, they’ll give me things, they’ll give me their company. I’ll have friends who will help me get rid of my awful burdens which I measure by the thousands.
I want others to think that I'm logical, I am always trying to be nice, I'm trying to be pleasant.... That is not my nature, I'm not always nice and pleasant. But I figure, if I can act that way long enough, smile to enough people, act pleasant wherever I go, show a little courtesy and politeness, if I do that long enough, maybe I’ll turn into the ideal self-portrait that I paint at so hard all day....
All right, you are now well instructed to know that you are not real at all. You think you’re real and you better give thought about the fact that you’re not a real human being in the higher definition of that at all, but you’re someone who has taken words out of the dictionary and selected the ones that you think will give you happiness....
If you could see your negative states inside yourself, eventually that would lead you to seeing what we’ve been discussing that would lead you to seeing how, because you’re scared, you go to the contradiction, you go to the opposite and say, I am brave.
If you knew you were scared and didn’t go to the opposite of calling yourself brave, then a whole new action would take place inside of you and the fright would disappear.
CATCH EVIL INVADERS FROM HADES
You’re going to know that if you can catch, and you can, if you can catch that false thought coming through your mind, you can know that it doesn’t belong to you either — it is also from another world.
It’s not yours naturally, not yours permanently; it comes from the dark place way down there, which is not your authentic world. Why do you allow Hades to send up its emotions and thoughts and allow them to claim that they are you?
They are not you. You see them as intruders, as foreigners, as evil invaders. See them as that just about the time you’re supposed to make that insulting remark, cruel remark to someone else. You catch it and see that it is coming from down there. When you know that it is coming from down there, you will know what can come for you from up there and will come in and enlighten you.
