The process is hell-of-a-scary anyway.
Anyhow I think the only way to learn something about self is to go really deep in one's self on soul level, and no masks fit in there. Strip all, good and bad. Who am I without any perception, without any learned or accepted model to act, without a hint of any gain to be achieved in a situation where I am used to acting in a certain way to gain something, without any role I have been carrying my whole life?
We wear masks due to various even unknown reasons I suppose. We are too afraid of being here as we deeply are, vulnerable, hurtful, heart open, in the moment, filled with love, sensitivity and hope for good. Masks make us strong, fitting, acceptable, admirable, worth pursuing, by most of the society's norms anyway. Masks make us unbeatable. Mask is ran by ego. Ego is not very constructive, to say the minimum.
What if everybody was allowed to be broken, not perfect, not beautiful, not fit, not having it all.
What if it was OK just be perfect you, just by being entire you?
I started thinking about chameleons as well. Chameleon is kind of a master in wearing a mask. It can adapt and change to any environment and circumstance by fitting in. How truthful is that when a person does that?
Why do we sell our soul so cheap? What is the price of not being true you?
You tell me.
Deepak Chopra has said: There comes a time when we are not happy until we know who we are.
And until we know that, how can we attract any person or any thing real in our lives?
