How Can We Be Reborn In the Light of Christ Within?
We have to avoid protecting the crumbling ego self-concept, and expose and release the shame that is hidden in the mind. mystical teachings When you have been judged as a failure, now you can say, “Well, I failed before for sure. I was a failure before, but it isn't me. That's not me. I'm alive. I'm reborn again in Christ. I'm fresh and clean and clear in this moment, and I have nothing to do with the self concept.”

I've surely got to follow. I've surely got to be the main one! I've surely got to be the one that steps up, and says, “I'll answer the Call.” Like Neo in The Matrix became The One.
Jesus wants us to overlook the images of the entire world and to choose the Light. His goal would be to take us in to the vision of Christ, that will be non-perceptual, to be reborn and feel anew, fresh, and alive. He wants us to be that reflection of the Light of Christ that is shining radiantly within!
