Ego-Mind & Simulate Selves

This information is to help us learn to discern the difference between our own mental voices and our
Authentic Voice. It might be rather challenging and dense with possibly new and strange information. It will
be repeated several times in different ways to assist with gradual understanding. The difficulty in
understanding it as you read may arise from ego-mind trying to get you to not understand it. This isn’t a race
or contest, so read at your own pace. Be kind to yourself, and take what fits and leave the rest. This is a good
place to keep the following in mind:

The words may not make conscious sense at this time,

But my inner senses comprehend and retain
The knowledge for Authentic Self.

All thoughts we experience arise through ego-mind. Note the emphasis on “experience.” Thoughts don’t
originate from ego-mind, but arise through our mind. Mostly, they’re allowed to pass through by
undisciplined ego-mind—and we then experience them and their effects. “Discipline” means to learn.
Because we haven’t taught ego-mind to let us make the final decision about our thoughts, it has taught us to
do what it decides instead. Thus for the vast majority of us, our ego-mind is undisciplined. As we move
forward with this discussion, unless otherwise clarified let it be assumed that when mentioned it is with the
understanding that it is about an undisciplined ego-mind.
Thoughts may come unbidden to the doorway of our mind, and then we often invite them in. For most,
the undisciplined ego-mind has gained control of the door, deciding which thoughts to let in. Perhaps you
can see thoughts as creatures flying about, looking for a place to perch. You can also understand why it’s
important to be aware of what kind of creatures they are, and if you should accept them by letting them into
your mind.
Picture it like this—if unhealthy, negative thoughts get into the house of your mind wherein you mentally
reside, they will trash the place, eat all the food, crap on the rugs and play all kinds of annoying music non-
stop, without permission or caring about you, their host. So why would you let them in to begin with? How
do you get them out? Is your door even closed, or just open to any and all strangers? Some information will
be offered to consider and which might be helpful in stimulating you to find your own creative answers.
If you and I were talking together, we would be primarily aware of our conversation, and less so of other
sources of incoming data all around us, such as a ticking clock, a siren outside, even bodily hunger or thirst.
Or you are so focused on reading a book that you fail to hear someone knocking at the door. This is ego-
mind functioning properly. It is meant to be a kind of psychological mesh or screen to filter out unnecessary
incoming information, so we don’t get overwhelmed by too much of the googolplex of bits of data circling
around us, and then short circuit or even shut down. 1 It’s a mental component evolved to help us stay alert
and focused. But at some point—far, far back in earthly time, ego-mind managed to gain practically complete
control of our minds because we increasingly allowed it to be the primary decider of what gets in and stays in.
So instead of an advocate it’s become more of a weapon, aimed at others and taking us as its hostage to
protect its own interest in survival.
Ego-mind knows that it will cease functioning when the material body dissipates. Authentic Self knows
that It will survive for always. The arrogant ego-mind greatly resents this fact. It has discovered that fear is a
quick source of energy, which it believes it can use to grow stronger and survive, while keeping Authentic Self
from interfering with its little kingdom of paranoia. Obviously, using more fear to protect oneself from fear
doesn’t make sense; it’s not sane. But this is exactly what ego-mind does in its non-sanity. Authentic Self can
choose to address fear with love, of which there is an infinite source.
Our bioform is sometimes referred to as a vehicle, which can be a helpful metaphor to begin grasping
some of its intricate complexities. For the majority of us, ego-mind is the unauthorized driver of our vehicle,
while we sleep in the back seat, unaware of Authentic Self. Ego-mind’s driving tends to be bizarre while

1 A googolplex is the number one, followed by writing zeroes until you get tired.
Ego-Mind & Simulates Selves – dal Dottore Anonimo Page 2 of 8

insisting it’s always right. It will do anything to survive and stay in control. Even if we should somehow
manage to get it in the back seat, it will continue to annoy us with know-it-all back-seat driving or incessantly
whining, “Are we there yet?” while pestering us to let it drive until we finally give in.
Ego-mind will often defend itself by manifesting what will be referred to here as simulate selves, giving rise
to the deceptive experience that there are many selves with different voices within us. These selves are all
mostly at odds with one another, resulting in chaos and fear, and making—or manufacturing—the
appearance that our mind is fractured and torn apart. This appearance is an illusion we believe to be real and
so we let it frighten us. The resulting fear is more energy for ego-mind’s plan to rule the world.
A simulate self is an obsessively opinionated, decision-making psychological component manufactured
by ego-mind for the purpose of maintaining control of our vehicle. Ego-mind creates a simulate self as a kind
of mask, which we then wear as our personality. Most of us have many masks, and so therefore have
numerous personalities with their own voices, depending on the survival drama we are acting out and with
whom.
The ancient, fear-based control system of ego-mind is tribal and so is defensive, aggressively competitive,
and judgmental. Its simulate selves act out and voice judgments, using phrases such as better than/less than,
best/worst, superior/inferior, evolved/degenerate, elite/common, chosen/damned, exclusive/low class,
special/ordinary; new and improved, fashionable, restricted, and classified.
Gossip, complaint, and criticism are food and drink to ego-mind. The personality of a simulate self is
motivated by ego-mind’s need for the power of fame and recognition, and fueled by envy and opposition.
Insatiably seeking entertainment, glee and gloating best describe ego-mind’s sense of humor, which is
delivered by certain simulate selves with jealousy and resentment. Ego-mind loves competitive contests. It
enjoys disasters, attracts them and even manufactures them through its simulate selves.
Ego-mind was originally designed to keep an eye out for us, to detect any incoming stimuli that might be
detrimental to our well-being, and then make a decision about the information. Decisions are based in the
present only, yet ego-mind does not have the ability to wait, which is something only a truly conscious mind
can do. Ego-mind has not only learned how to worry, but to worry about worry, and so is primarily future-
oriented. Its unhealthy language, which is couched in negative suggestions, generates anxiety and panic
attacks. It will seize upon the body’s minor aches and pains and escalate them into mental terrors and
fantasies about disease and bodily death.
Ego-mind’s development began very soon after the dawning of human consciousness, and so it is the
original and most ancient source of human-generated deities that demand unquestioned authority. This means
that from very early on, we learned to believe that we have no real authority over ourselves—that to be an
Authentic Self who makes all the decisions is blasphemy.

The words may not make conscious sense at this time,

But my spiritual senses comprehend and retain
The knowledge for Authentic Self.

Authentic Self has been called the Hidden Observer, Higher Self, Higher Power, the Oversoul—there
are as many ways to label it as there are individuals to say it. Stilling the incessant criticism of ego-mind will
eventually result in an awakening to Authentic Self—yet not an awakening of it, for it is already awake and just
seems hidden because it is much quieter than ego-mind. Sometimes this hiddenness is interpreted as being
asleep, but Authentic Self can’t really be said to be asleep or awake in the way we on Earth can be, because
that state which we want to call “awake” as contrasted with “not awake” does not exist on a pendulum of is or
is-not—there are no pendulums in the full awareness of Self.
Few Earth-embodied people are fully awake and consciously aware of Authentic Self or of ego-mind,
although it appears that increasingly more people are awakening. Still, the vast majority of people are moving
about in the world with ego-mind in the driving seat while they sleep in the back, occasionally and briefly
waking to look at the scenery passing them by, wondering how they got there, but then quickly falling back
into a coma. Ego-mind’s driving is compulsive, habitual, irrational, and its ever-increasing neuroticism is
generally uncontrollable because of our ignorant sleep-walking. It has taken refuge by hiding in our
underconscious, from where it secretly dictates most if not all of our mental direction. In other words, it
Ego-Mind & Simulates Selves – dal Dottore Anonimo Page 3 of 8

completely controls the illusion we are told to call our world.

Because of the unlimited energy we unknowingly give it through self-unawareness and fear, ego-mind is
able to present and maintain the appearance of a self-aware consciousness. In effect, this simulacrum or
imitation manifests its own kind of form—the personality of a simulate self—and simultaneously projects an
emotional environment for this form. It’s important to remember that fear projects illusions, while love
extends reality. The projected environment arises from the multitude of anxious thoughts we allow ego-mind
to generate and amplify, drawing from the vast expanses of energy generated by our fear and trembling,
which trap us behind illusory mental walls. An extended reality—which is not a projection—has no
boundaries, and allows us to move freely about in the universe.
Fear projects illusions, while love extends reality.
The label false self has been popularly utilized by many modern psychological models. The word “false”
usually brings up the idea of something bad or unhealthy. This idea suggests that this “other self” is not only
sick but that the assumed personality is essentially sinful, and so the personality as well as the real person
beneath it needs to be controlled, changed, rescued, healed, or eliminated. However, the real person, or
Authentic Self, is already perfect as created. But because of the inferred illness or sinfulness there is usually an
attack on one’s own bioform or on another’s in some way. The ensuing violence is then directed—or self-
directed—toward the simulate self while actually impacting the physical body. Authentic Self can neither be
attacked nor hurt or killed, but it can fade from our self-awareness as we fall into a kind of sleep or dream
because of fear—which pinches off the flow of Creative Source through us. Ego-mind can assault and cause
suffering to the simulate selves of other ego-minds, and even its own simulate selves.
To avoid strengthening established negative connotations, the false self has been reintroduced here as
the simulate self. The terms simulate self, ego-mind, personality, character, and even identity can all be exchanged for
one another because they are essentially the same in their illusory concepts, actions, affects, and effects.
Ego-mind can fabricate, present, and maintain a personality or identity to appear real and to use to
appeal to others. This personality is a simulated or simulate self. It is programed by ego-mind to assign the
greatest importance to itself as our personality regarding the affairs of the outer and inner worlds. It is
extremely valuable to keep in mind that our personality is not who we authentically are at the core of our
immortal existence. Personality is not Authentic Self. Our simulate selves and the simulate selves of others
will support one another’s personalities in order to keep the illusion of personality sustained. “Flattery will get
you anywhere” is one example of ego-mind’s manipulative agenda. Ego-mind convinces us to make it our
primary identity, and so whenever our ego is threatened we are influenced to believe that Authentic Self is
threatened. However, being immortal, Authentic Self has nothing to fear.
It is a relentless suggestion of an undisciplined ego-mind that we let it take the reins of our mental
processes. Once we agree to this, it can then fulfill its agenda that everything would be easier and better if we
just forget that it exists and let it continue on in its delusions while concealed in our under-consciousness. We
are then “permitted” to continue on in our lives in complete unawareness of it. Most of us end up agreeing to
this conspiracy with little or no questioning, much less with any conscious awareness of the situation or of
having made any such agreement.
Ego-mind makes its temporary home in our material body’s mental areas of the underconscious. The
core True Self or Authentic Self dwells within the higher-vibrating, non-mental areas of our interpenetrating
material, etheric, and astral bodies. This is why some refer to it as Higher Self; “Higher Nature” can also be
utilized.
Although undisciplined ego-mind seeks to condition us, Authentic Self can never be conditioned.
Authentic Self does not think or have thoughts, although it can observe them as they arise through the mind.
As unaware beings whose lives are dictated by ego-generated beliefs, we allow ego-mind’s channeling of
energy to sustain the reigning belief that the simulate self is the Authentic Self. We then give ego-mind the
power to rule our body, our environment, and our life by its appropriation of thoughts and in any way it
chooses. Or we can consciously stand guard at our mind’s threshold, opening its door only to those thoughts
we deem whole (or holy) and therefore safe.
The manifested outer world—the Tao’s “ten thousand things”—is projected by ego-mind. The ego-
mind’s perceived projection is a presumption of reality, giving rise to illusions it suggests we should
Ego-Mind & Simulates Selves – dal Dottore Anonimo Page 4 of 8

experience as “the world.” Ego-mind will unfailingly and skillfully use the illusion of any form of presumed,
perceived loss—grief, fear, sadness, regret, doubt, anxiety and so on—to keep us from connecting with and
awakening to true, present reality. Awareness of one’s immortal existence—one’s true presence—within an
infinite universe of experience reveals that “loss” is only a thought, an idea with no basis in reality
whatsoever. We forget to laugh at such an amusing idea.
A smile can change the course of our direction for the better.
The presumption of loss arises from insufficient experiential awareness, which is misinterpreted as actual
lack or less-than and sometimes even misconstrued as a kind of “more-than.” Insufficient experiential
awareness arises from fear and anxiety. Fear and anxiety are generated by undisciplined ego-mind to keep the
illusion of the presumed perceptions projected. This becomes a circular and repetitive cycle. This
circumscription of the life experience manifests an “edge,” beyond which is a presumed unknown which
serves as the threatening guard to keep us from exploring beyond out prison’s perimeters, where we would
otherwise expand and continuously experience awareness of our immortality. (See below for discussion about
the edge.)
Undisciplined ego-mind detests change of any kind, for change signals transition—or at the very least
suggests the idea of death—and so it works continuously to use fear to keep the status quo. Yet change is
how transitional mutation—or transmutation—comes about, and transmutation is how a manifested universe
allows us to relocate from one state of being to another, while simultaneously being that experience, i.e.,
Authentic Self-awareness.
The dissolution of ego-mind and its simulate selves at the time of our transition is inevitable, which ego-
mind correctly understands but resists as its own ending. It comprehends that it will eventually become
severed from all its relationships with the material world when an individualized Authentic Self transitions to
a state where a different kind of embodiment is experienced from the current terrestrial one. The refusal to
accept the instinctual knowledge of its own ending and any related references to death is part of the complex
ego-system known as denial. When the eco-system of a healthy, aware mind is replaced by an ego-system, the
result is fear, mindlessness, destruction, and war. When the ego-system is healed and reintegrated as a healthy
tool instead of a weapon, all mental eco-systems will become healed to wholeness as well.
For ego-mind, self-change means an ending, or death. As far as Authentic Self is concerned, any ending
contains the experience of the next beginning and the next, and so on, never-ending—which is Its
immortality. Ego-mind has learned how to convince us that its sense of ending is our own. This feeling is not
authored by Authentic Self and so is inauthentic to us, which we feel as a discomfort. This discomfort is little
more than psychic vapor, but because of our agreement to live by the rules of an inauthentic personality, we
accept its idea that this feeling is something called “fear” and that we should act in prescribed ways when
sensing it—or Faking Evidence to Appear Real.
Since our personality loves to own things in order to appear real, fear can be difficult to release,
especially if it’s not real. Using this fear like a gun at our heads, our ego-mind takes us hostage. It demands
and is given so much carte blanche energy that it could be said to have a mind of its own, the mind which used
to be fully ours. This entity-like energy will do anything to survive.
Although this entity-like energy is not us, it is similar to us, for it emulates our body’s built-in biological
drive for survival. Because grief embodies so many forms of assumed loss or less-than it is often seized upon
by ego-mind. The deepest aspects of grief can underscore a human life for its entire Earthly existence. With
grief as its weapon ego-mind may weaken us even to the point where the body will no longer sustain our
spirit. Thus there are people who have been said to have died of a broken heart. Like an enraged, spoiled
child ego-mind can conduct a tantrum of such proportions that it will find a way to cause life energy for the
body to be withheld, because somebody (some body) must be punished for the injustices inflicted upon it and
upon the other body it believes it owns. The undisciplined ego-mind is inherently suicidal, as it will
cannibalize its own material body to fuel the fear that sustains it. Physical disease then often appears as a
protest to such abuse.
Even when consciously aware as Authentic Self, we cannot help but miss our loved ones terribly and
painfully in our grief. For most of us this pain cannot be avoided and is part of living in this particular realm
of manifestation. We have the capacity to accept that everyone “dies,” or perhaps more compassionately,
“moves on.” But ego-mind cannot deal with any reminder that its own particular existence will eventually
Ego-Mind & Simulates Selves – dal Dottore Anonimo Page 5 of 8

cease. The fear-mongering non-sanity of the undisciplined ego-mind becomes clearly obvious by its plan to
survive even if it means destroying its host, our body, by proving that it is right in its beliefs—hence the
delusion of its own superiority. The question has sometimes been posed, would we rather be right or happy?
The usual answer is “happy.” However, undisciplined ego-mind is often actually in charge of our life and our
answers. It knows that it cannot be anything, and so in the final analysis undisciplined ego-mind can be seen as
insisting on having both.
When our spiritual self finally withdraws forever from the terrestrial material body, never to return, that body
is absorbed back into its source, the Earth, as well as by cosmic rays from the stars passing through our
planet. Deprived of a material body, ego-mind has no further earthly function. Up to that point ego-mind
believes that only the material world can fulfill its needs and desires. But since the terrestrial, material world is
constantly changing—or re-manifesting—it can never fulfill ego-mind’s insistence on non-mutation.
Undisciplined ego-mind refuses to accept any change over which it has no control and continues to search, to
temporarily find and then to lose what it found in a never-ending cycle of games. Out of this cycle rises the
human addiction to material things, an automatic resistance to change and, ultimately, fear of change. This
addiction is not meant in the way one is attached to drugs or other forms of physical or emotional sensation.
It is about the denial to understand that all materiality is a brief reflection of one’s inner Authentic Self,
simultaneously moving outward and expanding—or relocating—and is temporary and impermanent. This
denial must be explicitly maintained in order to achieve the illusory seamlessness needed to support the
undisciplined ego-mind’s theory of self.

The words may not make conscious sense at this time,

But my spiritual senses comprehend and retain
The knowledge for Authentic Self.

Source is Omnipotence, Omniscience, and Omnipresence (or … Ooo! …). Therefore the answer is always
available to us, from us. Often—if not currently always—we are asking questions to which we think we don’t
know the answer. It is ego-mind that suggests that we don’t know. Yet know, and know that you know, that
in the moment you have asked you have also received the answer from Authentic Self—and seemingly, most
illogically—you have received it before you hear yourself asking, and before you have finished the question.
The undisciplined ego-mind knows all about this and so seizes your answer after you have received it
from Source, but before you can consciously acknowledge it. Ego-mind steals the period at the end of the
answer and substitutes a question mark in its place, and then allows it to come up through our conscious
awareness. It can do this because you have been giving your undisciplined ego-mind permission to give you
your answers from a very early age.
So when you find yourself feeling very deeply that you have a question that must be answered, first try
replacing the “?” with a “.” and see how it feels. If it feels better, you have undone what ego-mind tried to do.
This is how one accepts and focuses Authentic Self-Authority. Here is yet another idea that is possibly
causing discomfort, which is a sign of beginning growth.
If you closely examine the previous two paragraphs you may come to the realization that ultimately,
questions are unnecessary. All that is necessary is experience. Even more succinctly, experience is all. Say this
a few times, emphasizing each word differently—first with a formal seriousness and then with a casual
flippancy, while experiencing the feelings arising.
EXPERIENCE is all. Experience IS all.
Experience is ALL.
Ego-Mind & Simulates Selves – dal Dottore Anonimo Page 6 of 8

The Edge
The edge is the perimeter of a reduced personal life experience within an unlimited personal eternal
universe. Lacking its own imagination and using ours instead, an undisciplined ego-mind restricts our
experience, utilizing the limiting five physical senses when they are activated by anxiety and fear. The imposed
restriction is a “sphere of experience” that surrounds an individualized mind-body, which in turn seems
disconnected from the conscious awareness of Authentic Self. The world appears to surround one on all sides
and seems to be all there is. But it is no more than a mental goldfish bowl, its transparent but impervious
barrier reflecting back only that which ego-mind projects. This sphere of forced experience is the kingdom of
the simulate selves as ruled by ego-mind. The undisciplined ego-mind enforces the belief that its limited
kingdom is unlimited and supreme. The result of this base inconsistency is a constant feeling of being out of
alignment with Authentic Self—angst, dread, worry, and anguish.
Ego-mind may allow for a permeability of the edge if this fits its agenda. Individualized mind-bodies can
then join and develop a group sphere of experience, attracted by like vibration and held together by like
beliefs as dictated by the stronger ego-mind collective. A collective can be small like a couple or a family, or a
larger sphere of several groups such as tribes, organizations, corporations, and nations. The separate ego-
minds are never fully aligned in agreement and so strife and dissention are inherent in these systems. The
spheres of many ego-minds often interpenetrate one another. Intergenerational transmission of beliefs is also
highly likely, as parents, usually in total unawareness, pass on belief systems to their children, sometimes
down through many centuries. Formalized institutions of collective ego-mind such as governments and
churches also transmit and strengthen barriers to authentic and unlimited experience. The Internet has been
almost entirely confiscated by the collective undisciplined ego-mind.
The edge of the sphere of experience is seldom visited by its inhabitant—there is usually no conscious
awareness of its existence. The idea of this edge can be seen in the antiquated belief of The Flat Earth, which
successfully kept people from exploring their physical environment for fear of falling off into an abyss of
unknown territory. Even though it has since been realized that the Earth is not flat, the same fear-generated
scheme, which was developed by ego-mind, still actively exists in the global ego-mind collective. Although we
can now venture around the material globe most of us are still encased in our invisible, protective sphere of
ego-mentality, the flatland of the simulate self.
Ego-mind maintains the structure of its kingdom through beliefs that are engendered by deception. The
edge or border of its kingdom is held in place by a force field of anxiety, like an electric fence. Should one
move too close to this edge, chemical alarms trigger the feeling of anxiety. One of ego-mind’s lies is that the
anxiety is unlimited beyond the perimeter, and that once the edge is transgressed the anxiety will go on
forever. What makes this lie believable is that Authentic Self is still aware of the actual limitlessness beyond
the edge. Ego-mind lies that this limitlessness is identical to unrelieved anxiety and so we unquestioningly
avoid the edge. Unlimited authentic living is effectively pinched off into a limited, simulated experience.
This experiential avoidance results in a feeling of having “split” or “fractured,” manifesting a “less-than”
experience for us, and the loss is then sensed as inexplicable sadness, grief, and depression. Although the
feeling of being fractured is ultimately a misperception, an incorrect translation of vibrations, we feel
compelled to correct it and bring the “pieces” back together—typically by looking for other people, or
careers—anything, really—to “join with and complete” us. We are already complete and cannot, at the most
basic point of reality, be or become anything otherwise.
Change is the nature of the manifested material universe, enabling individualized manifestations of
Authentic Self to move about from one geography of experience to another. Transformation of vibration
cannot take place without this movement. Inherent in the design of humankind is ever-arising stimuli, causing
individual forms to shift and change form in some way—that is, to transform. This stimulus, which is
Original Creative Source’s aspiration for novelty—or newness—is equally inherent in and activated and
detected by our senses. That is, if we didn’t have senses we wouldn’t be stimulated to transform. All physical
and non-physical senses are affected by Creative Source’s expansion of novelty.
What lies beyond this edge? Nothing until we get there. As a natural course, we are brought up against
our edge as a result of our awareness of Authentic Self’s directive to transform. We feels suffocated in a
relationship or stifled by a career, or bored by the current lifestyle. A barrier to movement, the edge is a result
Ego-Mind & Simulates Selves – dal Dottore Anonimo Page 7 of 8

of ego-mind’s need to control. It uses anxiety to keep an individuated Authentic Self from moving beyond
the edge and hence from transforming. Ego-mind drives our mind-body vehicle around and around the
perimeter of our experiential sphere. This habitual circumnavigation, which often becomes obsessive and
compulsive behavior, causes unrelenting emotional, mental, and physical stress. Our awareness of Authentic
Self is blocked from realizing our inheritance of our Divine Realm as infinitely bestowed by Creative Source,
and instead we endure a frozen hell of restrictive movement, masterminded and ruled by the unrestricted ego-
mind. This restricted movement, as directed by ego-mind, is also its limited attempt to simulate Creative
Source.
WAITING

Being future-oriented, ego-mind cannot wait. Instant gratification is its motivation. Addiction of some
kind—mild to wild—is the eventual consequence. The undisciplined and unrestricted ego-mind can simulate
waiting in the form of a simulate self, which uses patience as a form of control to endure hardship, difficulty,
or inconvenience against one’s true, authentic desire. It neutralizes our ability for self-control and the ability
to accept delay.
Patience involves the attempt to hold an idea and its opposite at the same time, rather like holding the
breath to try to keep the body from moving. It is trying to simultaneously hold the two thoughts, “I’m
worried” and “This won’t happen.” It is thinking “maybe it will and maybe it won’t” which is a resistance that
creates the tension that restricts the flow of life. Waiting is not worrying about what won’t happen and instead
is focused upon allowing joy or enjoyment into the present moment, as well as on the quality of the moment
and not on the quantity of what is or is not there.
Waiting, which is inherent in the nature of Authentic Self, is not meant here as patience. Because it is
oriented in the present, Authentic Self has no need for patience and instead resides in resting in the feeling
experience of Selfness. For Authentic Self, waiting is rest—and It is always at rest. For the undisciplined ego-
mind, which uses thoughts to generate a simulation of experience, waiting is unthinkable and unimaginable.
Imagination and rest belongs to Authentic Self; worry and unrest belong to the fearful ego-mind. Authentic
Self has neither knowledge nor fear of death; ego-mind strives to destroy this serenity.
Authentic Self can utilize our imagination as experiences that appear to call for endurance if It so desires.
But Its nature is to enjoy rather than endure an experience. “Enjoy” is not meant here as ego-mind’s concept
of getting joy out of something. Rather, putting joy into something is what Authentic Self brings to the table
of experience, at which It serves as the Good Steward. For the Good Steward, to enjoy is to give. To give
does not necessarily mean bringing forth some material thing but also to rest in the allowing of the moment
to be as it is. It means acceptance and allowing the joy of satisfaction to flow freely into whatever experience
is manifesting. It means the acceptance of the unlimited abundance of the infinite universe, which is always
filling the table and the cup that runneth over.
To reside and rest in the feeling of authentic enjoyment is Authentic Self’s motivation. Joy is another word
for That Which Gives Life—or Creative Source—which is never-ending and unceasingly pours into one’s
universe through the channel of Authentic Self. When joy is withheld from outflowing the feeling of life shuts
down. Depression, illness, and the eventual cessation of earthly material existence are the resulting effects.
Authentic Self becomes consciously aware of anxiety when It finds the edge of a simulate self’s sphere of
existence. If Authentic Self is in the driver’s seat It can choose to pull over and stop to make observations
and choices about what It sees as opportunities for change, rather than as barriers against danger. We all
know what it’s like to come up against our life’s edges. For those who have been endeavoring to raise and
sustain spiritual consciousness there may be the additional experience of not being able to turn around and go
back, once up against the edge. This has been described as being on the edge of a cliff, within the dark night
of the soul, or under a cloud of unknowing.
This is where waiting—or resting in the feeling of Authentic Self—comes in. When unknowing arises,
one has simultaneously reached the feeling of Authentic Source. A simulate self will avoid the cliff’s edge.
Authentic Self, consciously aware of the feeling of the truth of Its immortal existence and simultaneously
unaware of the untruth of death, will be able to accept and contain any vibrations of anxiety while resting in
mental stillness at the edge, and even bring joy to the experience. It may choose to rest as long as It wants
while examining the belief system generating the barrier. It makes this examination by focusing Its full,
Ego-Mind & Simulates Selves – dal Dottore Anonimo Page 8 of 8

attentive awareness upon the belief system. Under Its quiet gaze—“quiet” meaning without ego-mind’s
critical chatter—any misperception of the belief system will be revealed, which will then cause it to fade back
into the nothingness from whence it came. The barrier dissolves and Authentic Self, as an individuated
bioform, can then move in the direction It chooses.
When unknowing arises, one has simultaneously reached the feeling of Authentic Source.
Authentic Self may also decide not to move, or perhaps to jump off the cliff. Having reached an
awareness of Its wings of immortality, fear no longer prevents or accompanies Its choices. Whatever
happens, there will be unlimited opportunity to bring joy along as a companion. It knows Its life will always
unfold perfectly, no matter what—and It knows that It knows.
My life is always unfolding perfectly,
no matter what.
