WHEN YOU FEEL HURT
due to another’s cruel attack
of rage, vitriol, sarcasm, mockery
who or what is it that feels the pain?

It’s the separated self!
But, is that you? The real you?
You’re still feeling hurt and angry,
but who is the ‘you’ that is feeling so?

The separate self is non-existent!!!
You do need to see this clearly though
because that was the only base
for your suffering.

With nothing for anger to attach itself to –
because the false belief of a self separate from God is no longer accepted
– this must be your firm recognition.
