1. The material world, including time and space, is illusory and a projection of the egoic mind.
Truth: Progress made within the illusion of the physical world is both superficial and temporary.
Truth: True progress is spiritual in nature and involves awakening to the reality beyond the illusion.
2. The ego is driven by the desire for separation and individuality.
Truth: The conventional idea of progress involves competition, comparison, and a focus on personal achievements, all of which are ego-driven pursuits.
Truth: Egoic progress reinforces the sense of separation from others and the divine, leading to suffering and conflict.
3. Progress, as commonly understood, leads to an attachment to outcomes and a never-ending cycle of desire for more.
Truth: Our attachment to external achievements and the constant pursuit of progress results in dissatisfaction and restlessness.
Truth: True peace and contentment comes from recognizing the falsity of these assumptions.
Truth: We are whole and one with God, not from external accomplishments.
