Tips from Regina ~ Day 325, Commentary on Discovering False Identity

December 28, 2018

Please contemplate this commentary in the same way you contemplate the Thoughts of Awakening.

~Commentary on Discovering False Identity~

 You may not know how to discover your false identity, which hides the truth because the false identity has long since been believed and therefore ignored, not looked at and questioned. Through this process, the false identity has become invisible to you, and one may not know how to find and look at that which is invisible.

Nothing real has a shadow, because it is too clear. But false identity is not real. Therefore, although it may be invisible, it has a shadow, a shadow that casts many shadows. Therefore, if you look for its shadow you will find that which you did not see.

The primary shadow reflecting from the belief in a false identity is the thought “I”. It may be followed by “I like this” or “I don’t like that,” but the thought of an I that is distinct and with preferences is the shadow that reflects from the belief in a false identity.

If you are too accustomed to the false, the primary shadow may be accepted as normal, and through normalcy it may also be invisible to you.

If this is the case, look for the shadows that are cast off of the shadow. These shadows are annoyance, frustration, anger, attack and other forms of upset.

When you are upset, ask why you are upset. You will notice right away that you have found the “I” that is distinct and has preferences.

Now look at that I, the shadow of nothing real, and ask from which it comes. It will disappear into a thought … just a thought or an idea. And in this you have found false identity. It is thinking … changeable, non-dependable, unreal thought.

But what are you? Are you thought or are you before thought and beyond it?

By looking at false identity, it must die, because it is not life and you are.

~From our Holy Spirit
