Seeking the relieved state is the illusion

One is carried away by relief, pleasure as if compulsion, pain-uneasiness has been undone or removed from the mind. ‘Tension-relief, disturbance-adjustment’ is the auto movement, self-sustained movement. The illusion becomes busy in securing a relieved state by whatever name it may use-God, liberation, realization and so on. It can not ask for more. This is the limit of the mind. It escapes facing unpleasantness and uncertainty by comforting ideas, explanations. Once the escape root stops-one regains one’s original position.
