@katrina.karanYou get what you think you deserve, not what you actually deserve. Those two things sit far apart, and that gap is basically the whole conversation. Start with the harder part: almost none of your beliefs started with you. A parent, a teacher, a guy on youtube, somebody said a thing once and it just moved in and stayed. Inherited furniture. But a belief isn't the same as truth. Strip the attachment away and what's left underneath is the spiritual core of mind, which is a different thing from the mind clinging to an idea. What I find freeing is that any belief is available to pick up. Nothing being said here is true or false on its own, it comes down to whatever you decide to believe, and that decision either helps you or it doesn't. Your call, not mine. Conscious choosing raises a temple. Unconscious choosing lays prison walls. Perception creates reality, so pick with your eyes open
