I pray to rid myself of myself

A journey into the abyss of Not Knowing

This is a commentary of a future Substack post with the same title. Ridding one’s self of themselves involves relinquishing past stories, projections of the future, a total surrendering to The Mystery. I also talk here about how this is a constant journey letting go, a constant state of allowing, a constant state of surrendering. We go further in this surrendering by dropping even the notion of a conceptual ‘God’ that we have mostly created in our own image. What happens in this letting go of the concept is we then find the ineffable. Our eyes become even more open to seeing that we had nothing to do with our lives all along. It’s weird! It’s unexplainable! But it is joyously what it is.
