When I'm looking for God I'm deader than I am if I WANT something. Francis Answers -109
English, Text Would it be fair to say that spirituality can become a trap. In that we can spend a great deal of our lives cooped up and trying to 'get it'. The contrast of the spiritual path seems to be the 'worldly' person. Someone with a DESIRE to go out and make something. That desire to create and do seems to be completely in tune with sexual desire as well. It seems like when I'm looking for God I'm deader than I am if I WANT something.

Awareness is temporary - Francis Answers - 108
English, Text: Location: Barcelona, Spain Question: Dear Francis, all these questions about awakening and enlightenment, being present... all refer to people living with a body. You can stand as awareness more or less frequently, but you still eat, feel the temperature of the air, sleep... All this is temporary and lasts as the brain lasts. What happens when the body dies? Do you know it for sure?

Are other people real? - Francis Answers - 107
English, Text Location: Northern California Question: Hi Francis, Last night I invited the king in and looked for the "I". What became apparent was that the "I" is not local to this body. The body became unreal, and all that was there was "me". Thought was happening. What was "me" hides within the body or seems to, appearing to be a person thinking.

A couple of nights ago, I woke up in a panic - Francis Answers - 106
English, Text Location: Shanghai, China Question: A couple of nights ago, I woke up in a panic. My mind was touching such a profound and powerful truth, and I quickly pushed it away. I was frightened. I wasn't ready. When I meditate, this is the very state I am trying to achieve, isn't it? I feel so frustrated because I know that the only way I will ever be truly free of the suffering I have attracted in my life is by going to that place, and yet, a couple ni
