What belief would you like to give up?

Why not all of them?
They are only here,
and they certainly
don't go with me
and most likely
many of those things
I believe are
based on someone
else's opinions and thoughts
and partly
that's the way it should be
but it limits us
at the same time.

We should examine all
we believe, and discard
regualrly that which
does not serve to
love.

Many beliefs are simply
for comfort
against the fear that I will die
and that I don't know when
and since I do little
to actually prepare myself
for, not against,
that moment,  not day,
I comfort myself
with beliefs that amount to
little more than lies
I tell myself.

Is it not better to face that fear naked
as I came and shall go
than to have to be stripped
and find all that I constructed
to protect myself
was wasted time and effort?

The only thing that matters
is the reality that doesn't die,
which can be called mind,
or consciousness, maybe
even spirit. That already exists
and doesn't need belief.
It needs attention to now,
to be known fully,
and to be uncovered freom the
constructs of my ego.
