The purpose of NTI 2 Thessalonians was to help us let go of the ‘I am bad’ belief. The purpose of NTI 1 Timothy is to help us let go of the belief in ‘me’ as an individual, separate person. This is also letting go of the belief in separation.

Today’s reading says:

The personhood of man, which is based on the belief in the world, is meaningless. It is meaningless because the world itself is not real, so all that is based on the world is also not real.

This is a very deep thought that you do well to sit back and soak in fully, for within this thought is another symbol that is key to your own salvation.

What is the “symbol that is key to your own salvation?”

It is Self-inquiry.

Who/What am I?

I was not ready for Self-inquiry when it was introduced in NTI 2 Corinthians 12, so like a GPS, inner wisdom recalculated to help me see that I am the Third Principle of God, the creative process. I accepted that teaching more easily. Through that teaching, I could see that I am not what I think I am and that the world is not real; it is made through attention on thought, perception and emotion.

In NTI 1 Timothy, inner wisdom asked me to contemplate that more deeply. If I go deeply  into the realization that I am not what I think I am, that the world is made by attention on thought, emotion and perception, and that the body-personality is part of the world, I will eventually come to the question:

What am I?

And that question is key to salvation (awakening).

Some of you accept that you are not what you think you are. You accept that the world is not real; it is made by attention on thought, perception and emotion. Now, notice that the body and personality are part of the world. That means they are also made  in the same way all manifestation is made. They can’t be what you are, so what are you?

Don’t make the mistake I made in NTI 2 Corinthians 12, when I went to concepts for the answer. Instead of answering with what you’ve learned, look.

Experience you intimately.

If not the body, if not the thoughts, if not the emotional-makeup, and if not the personality, what’s left as you?

Subtract everything that you identify with that is a type of manifestation.

What’s left as you that is not  a manifestation?

Today’s reading points out that individual personhood—me, you, us, them—supports judgment.

Can that which is left when body-thought-emotion-personality is subtracted be judged like a body can be judged? Like thoughts can be judged? Like emotion or personality can be judged?

Anything that can be judged is part of manifestation. It is not real, and it supports the continued making of illusion.

That which cannot be judged is beyond all of it—beyond world, beyond body and beyond mind. And yet it is you.

What is that?
