if you can transcend the egoic self-concept, and allow actions to arise from from consciousness itself, no mistakes are made

of course, christians, as opposed to mystics, require the concepts of sin and guilt and intermediaries,… a mystic sees the whole thing as as description of his own being, where everything happens anyway, minus the imposed and conditioned structures of belief and concept

would bet a bushel you cannot agree though, it would mean you weren’t what you want to think that you are..

enjoy, gregory
