I Don't Believe In ... John Lennon




Watching this from way back when the Beatles split up i am reminded in this song by Lennon that if you let go of all there is to
b e l i e v e  in, in this world you only have yourself and reality to deal with.It's a bold step to let go and just BE. Maybe at that point you can begin to understand what it is to believe in anything other than WHAT IS.... and then belief in anything seems futile and a waste of time & energy.

I think an enlightened person (if enlightenment is real and not just another belief) may be is just someone who is content with JUST THIS ... and nothing else. Maybe he or she is like that Bodhisattva in the train, when you wake up to JUST THIS you laugh. NO belief necessary ... HOW FREE WOULD YOU BE TO BE LIKE THAT... i think we already are but we have forgotten to stop believing in .......... a million crazy things....

See what it feels like to contemplate that maybe "God IS a concept by which we measure our pain..."
