Beyond

The body with its aches and pains distracts you from knowing the greater aspect of you.  The mind with its constant chatter distracts you from knowing the greater aspect of you.  Who is the real you?  Not even the soul which is formless.  That is a bit closer, indeed, to the fullness of which you are, but even that has boundaries, for it has a vibration that is identifiable to those who can see higher forms of energy.  The real you is boundless, timeless, beyond words.  The real you is like the cloudless sky.  The part with which you identify is the passing clouds.  How do you get to know the real you?  By sitting in the silence and shutting out all that you presently identify as you.  There and then, when all of the clouds dissolve, can you have but a taste of the experience that shows you how great, how expansive you really are.  Look at a sky filled with billions of stars and begin to get an idea of how magnificent you are, for you are the sky which births those shining lights.
