“I cannot believe I have not come upon you (Paul)

Dear Friend,
Thank you for sharing your appreciation.
You say:
“I thought I would ask if you would somehow — at some point
address the whole concept of “letting go”– “surrendering”.
As I see it, surrendering is to something or someone outside of yourself,
and letting go is an action, and neither are appropriate.
Just stop holding, and all will fade on its own.
Again, as I am seeing it, there is nothing outside of ourselves.
What we think we are experiencing is an illusion of what we are calling
reality.
You say:
“Please talk about obsessions– obsessive compulsive disorders—
and how one might disconnect from the hellish hold it can have upon a
person.”
Same thing. You are assuming that the obsession has an impetus of it’s own,
and there is something wrong with it. Inconvenient, yes; wrong, no.
Nothing has a hold on you – unless you let it.
As I see, if we are not holding, in any way, the old conditioning does not
have anything to energise it, and it fades on it’s own. Just stop holding.
Have you had this experience? You have an old flesh wound that is healing.
Such a strong temptation to scratch off the scab! Just don’t do it!
Take a look. Overall, what you are expressing is a complaint?
A complaint is based on something happening outside of ourselves
over which we do not have control. Just not true. Thou, really are That.
Just takes some devotion.
That you have picked up some unwelcome conditioning seems to be part
of being in this dimension, and it seems to me almost certain that that is
just what we need – in order to remember.
Happy remembering…paul
