Emptiness Dancing
Part of not getting caught in illusion is to give up referencing the way we think and feel.

A big part of wisdom is to give up referencing the positive thoughts and feelings.

We're more than willing to give up the negatives. But when we run into bliss, ecstasy,

the joy and release of true revelation, and all the emotions that we consider spiritual,

we tell ourselves, "That's me. How do I know that's me? It must be me because

I feel very good. I feel bliss and ecstasy and joy. That's how I know who I am, what I am,

and that I am safe."

But you're still buying into sense perception. If you buy into sense perceptions to

tell you who you are, it's just a matter of time until the senses show their other face,

which is the negative side, and you'll say, "Oh my gosh, I'm trapped."
