When working on fantasy it is like we are coming out of some kind of sub-world and starting to live in a new world, almost an unknown world.
For a split second we feel we don't know how to live in this new world.
What is worth while in our life, is to make contact with the moment in our lives. There we can meet ourselves and our life as it is.
To do that we just need to relax into the moment and focus.
Applying all that we have learnt to be more conscious and enhance the conscious experience of our life is what really makes sense to do in life.
The rest is all mind, superficiality and time slipping by.
Mind and superficiality set up a mechanical existence for us.
The paradox is a mechanical existence does not seem mechanical to the one who is trapped in it. The constant calling of the lower nature to fulfill its desires to the sleeping consciousness seems new, exciting and noteworthy. Only the eventual pain of the mechanical existence causes a spark of consciousness to appear, permitting us to see that the 'new' is really 'the same old'.
As Master Samael says we have to give opportunities to our consciousness so that the calling of the higher nature in us can take effect on our consciousness and lead us to develop further. To do this we need to live 'conscious moments'.
To live conscious moments it is really helpful to forget everything outside and focus on what applying all that we have learnt to help us in this task.
