Delusion
It is the mind that weaves a pattern called “I” - the process by which it establishes the ego and elaborates it into a multitude of shackles called delusion. The mind prompts the senses to project into the outer world of objects, for it builds up notions of pleasure and pain, of joy and grief and constructs a whole array of urges and impulses.
It protests when the individual is eager to become conscious of one’s identity. But when it finds that the individual is determined to oppose its tactics, it surrenders and disappears without a trace! Diminish your desires – you will be free from delusion.
Desire comes from attachment – deliverance comes from detachment!
