To say thank you and ask for advice...

Dear Jed Mckenna,
I met your books several years ago and they deeply changed my
life. I quit my job to find out what T/R is because I am so
curious about it. I believed in you because your words are so
different. They are so "True" and I feel to meet your truely
heart and that moves me a lot. They drive me from a crazy mind
to a true human being existence. I never expected that may
happen in my life.
I Live in China and a new friend from Tai Wan told me you have a
forum and that give me a chance to say thank you to you. I never
expected to connect with you because I think you are hidden. So
I want to say thank you again.
I got so much information from your books in my journey. It was
a journey with so much painful. I faced my fear that I can never
imagine to face to. I finally abandoned myself to my fear
because I realized that I can't win this battle against the fear
that made by myself. I discovered my minds and find the fake and
self-deception in them, and I found out that nearly all my minds
are a kind of self-deception. But I still don't know what is
T/R. By now, I find out that the true thing is what I think is
true, and actually what I do (all I do) has no ture reason. It
is really a dream of self, a game of mind, a movie of nothing.
Actually I read the book Loving What Is by Byron Katie and it
helped me in my whole journey. Every mind is not ture, if I ask
it seriously. And to find why I think it is ture, I find the
truth.
Sorry about my English and sorry for the 200 words limit. I want
to communicate with you if there is a chance. I want to know
whether my way is right. Sorry to ask this after all the
achievements I claimed. Your advice is important to me because
this thing is actually a little difficult. But I think I can
still do it by myself if there is no advise.
Yours,
Zhen

Dear W:
Thank you for your post and questions. I always appreciate a
non-English speaker making a good effort to communicate in
English. It's a very difficult language.
It sounds to me like you have done much work on your own and I
applaud that... good work. Don't be hard on yourself. Just be
patient. It's all good and you are headed in the right
direction.
Write me anytime.
Love ya, Jed.

Dear Jed,
Appreciate for your reply. Yes I read some of the posts on the
forum and noticed that you are always advise us to be patient
and relax, you advise me not to be hard on myself, but actually
you were very hard to yourself on your journey. I am a little
afraid of your books because I can't do to myself that what you
did to yourself. I can't be hard enough on myself, and it is a
problem. I don't know whether I am handing a sword or a butter
knife. I think I may not success because of this.
After years of chasing truth, after the destory of my old truth
system with painful and fear, I find that there is a "strength"
from my spirit and it makes everything come "true" in my dreams
in the night and in the facts in the day, and also makes all the
fear and limits. And the truth under every shape is not in there
shapes but in my mind. On every case there must a careful
analysis needed to discover this. I met some teachers and
students study the spiritual research but I can't talk to anyone
of them. They are always chasing something good instead
something ture. They can't follow me when I want a discuss. Not
because I am smart but because they don't want to make a deep
think on one question. They always say that I am trapped in my
brain. But I can't imagine there is another way to discover. Not
to discover the truth, but to discover the false, the trick of
the brain. I don't really need a discuss, just because the
deeply communication is one of the few things that I enjoy very
much. I write this just for a expression, not to ask a deep
communication with you, that will difficult to success because
of the lauguage barrier.
I had some experiences of "awake" or something in my journey.
Once a time, I found "thoughts" crawls on me like bugs. I felt
disgusting becuse they are not the thing that I allow them to
appear on me. I saw the whole "mind world" appear to me once. It
is so huge and complex that I can't imagion. I felt "awake" once
also, the world still existence but it wasn't me to look at it.
The "me" who lived in the world was like a dream at that time.
Those statements disappeared and I don't chase them.
I write to you this time just want to ask, if the "strength" of
my spirit is the truth of everything, shall I search the "truth"
of this "strengh"? I realized that there may a "one thing" that
lead the "strength" and makes everything. "It" makes the fear,
the limits, the painful, and myself. Does it right? I want to
know whether my direction is right or wrong, and do I really
trapped in my brain?
Please tell me the truth and you don't need to care my feelings.
I don't care if all my achievements are fake. Because I know
they finnally are anyway.
Yours,
Zhen

Here is the generally applicable map.... struggle, fight,
stress, question... repeat a thousand times, then give up,
REALLY GIVE UP on everything and everyone, because everything
and everyone isn't IT.
Then wait for whatever arises and never, ever believe it.
Now, get to work... or just give up.
Love ya, Jed.

Ok, so I struggle because I can't give up. I give up because I
can't struggle any more, it is not up to me, right?
So if I finally give up on everything and everyone, that means I
give up on ME, right? I am not IT.
And if I don't belive anything, I will not believe myself, even
my existence. I think I never realized that, although I said
"myself is fake" for years. I never really think it is.
I should come to you earlier. I never imagine you are still show
up. You said you will live alone in Mexico.

Thank you for your advice. You really give me a big push. I
think I can reach what you said after my own achievements,
although it is a little hard. I think "believe" itself is a kind
of lie. The only problem is how deep in my mind I can reach
using the practice "not to believe", as you say "everything". I
will try.

Try doesn't work, simply do or do not do. Life can be very
simple when you let it be.
Love ya, Jed.
