When we strain ourselves to become something, then we ourselves have projected this something

The conscious effort, the will to understand and create, to accumulate, the will to become something, is a continuation of the past, perhaps modified, but still a continuation.

When we strain ourselves to become something, then we ourselves have projected this something.

When we conscious strain in order to understand and create, it is the noise of our own accumulations we hear, the noise of all the life we have sucked out of the present and into thinking and time.

And it is this noise that precisely hinders the understanding and the creation.

Your world-image is inseparable connected with your self-image

The self-image manifests itself as a certain perspective, so that everything you are seeing, is your own perspective.

The world-image is a projection of yourself, only you divide yourself from it, in the formation of the Ego.

What Man identifies himself with, is always the self-projected, whether it is the highest, the state, or the family.

The identification is, regardless on what plane it takes place, a process of the Ego.

Identification with the greater is still a projection of the small, and reverse.

What you identify yourself with, when you identify yourself with the greater, is the idea. The idea is the Ego identified with for instance God or the state.

Such an identified action only creates more discord, larger confusion, distress and misery.
