Buddha at the Gas Pump Interview

All we are doing here is seeing through the illusion that there is a separate self. You are not going to change your stripes for spots. You are not going to become a saint. You will not disappear. You never were in the first place. The world will be the same world you are experiencing now. The difference is that the story of self will be seen through; the chattering of mind that cries ownership will be seen to be a lie; the thoughts that busily smooth over the holes in experience will be seen to… More be fantasy. You will simply notice that you have a new perspective, and that you no longer believe in a separate self.
