Owning projections””always a good practice, huh? That practice is crucial for us for a reason we don’t often see in the beginning. Owning projections has you looking at what conditioned mind is doing rather than through what conditioned mind is doing. See what I mean? It’s huge! We often talk about starting to look at what goes on inside our head as if someone were walking along beside us saying all the stuff happening in there. Imagine! We would certainly not be confused that “I’m thinking that. That’s me.” THAT is where we want to get to with the crapola going on inside our head. We need to get that “I’m NOT thinking that. That’s NOT me.”

As we realize at deeper levels that Life is not a contest, that nothing is trying to trick, fool, or make us wrong (except egocentric karmic conditioning/self-hate, of course), we learn to trust that still, small voice and follow it without reservation. If ego gets in and hoodwinks us, we’ll find out and there will be nothing but celebration of the insight and clarity.

An exasperating lack of concentration, devotion, or inspiration might be just what you need to make the extra effort to tune in to your practice fully.
