Resistance Against Being With Yourself
When
you are resisting, you are basically resisting yourself. It is a kind of self-resistance. Instead of
being with yourself, you are resisting being with yourself. Instead of being yourself, you are resisting being yourself. That is what it means to resist our
True Nature. The
ego experience, which is by its nature not an experience of simply being ourselves, implies resistance to being. The moment we take the posture of ego, of
identification with our history, it implies resistance. There is no such thing as ego with no resistance, and the ultimate resistance is the resistance to simply being, the resistance to our True Nature. And that’s because ego is always trying to do one thing or another, and True Nature isn't doing anything. It just is. It is nature. It is luminous
presence.
