Your whole suffering is about a fake me

So these are worth contemplating. Like I am not forcing it. I am not saying we must fake the thing. But also we talked about fake and authentic. Like the mind can also bully us in this. But you are just faking it now. But isn't your whole suffering about the fake me? Like who is at the center of all that suffering which the mind wants us to do? It wants to be stuck in that Oh me, little old me, poor old me You see, it doesn't say But this is a fake me You see The minute we smile because God is here You are being inauthentic, you are being fake You see And all this time It fed us a story for 50 years, 51 years It fed me a story of a fake me Then it doesn't say This is all fake You see If I try to pull myself out of suffering And I want to smile because God is here It says, you're being inauthentic now. This is Advaita denial. You see, the denial of God. I just make this point. It may seem like a slight digression. The denial of God is not denial. The very animating light of this universe, let's keep denying that, that is not denial. The minute we say, but God is here, I'm going to be happy. Then you're in denial. You see.
