PRESENT ILLUSIONS
Your past and future are illusions
fucking with you present self
Cobra
The first thing one notices about the Cobra are the large, terror-inducing, hypnotic eyes. Those ever-watching eyes. Those deluding and illuding eyes. If a prey assumes that to be truth, they’ve fallen perfectly into the Cobra’s trap. Soon to be swallowed, digested slowly and painfully until nothing remains but the salutation of Death.
The real eyes of the Cobra are in fact small, beady, centered & higher up. Those real eyes waiting, watching to see if the observer sees the truth and will they choose to react, and how? Stare intently upon those real eyes the same way during deep meditation, one must look slightly upward and centered towards the third eye to reach self-realeyes-ation.
The same applies to life.
Illusionary Trains
We tend to look at the past as an anchor of our painful memories and failed dreams, restricting ourselves from what we can perform today. This is the train of the past (left eye of the Cobra).
We tend to look at the future with fear of failure and inadequacies, preventing ourselves from taking the bold steps toward obtaining our desires. This is the train of the future (right eye of the Cobra).
Both illusionary trains are forever racing on the collision course with ourselves stuck in the middle; the present.
Stay Present
We need to stay focused in the present, breaking out of hypnosis & looking into the true eyes of the snake that lies in front of us. Knowing that the beady nature of this world is ours for the taking. Else, we live life in misery, slowly growing old until nothing remains but the salutation of Death.
Both trains are coming your way. They always have been and always will be. Be strong. Stay present.
