Hi
I have to confirm by my own experience.

Yes, truth is crucified every day on the cross of our attachment.

Self deceit fits d purpose right,
But obscures the being from the only light,
Its easy to live in the cosy darkness,
But the light though near seems terror to harness,
Though the man unknowingly take refuge in Self deceit,
Not knowing though knowingly killing his only retreat,
Open your eyes wide rather to the terror of darkness,
And know the Self deceit killing the soul with vastness,
Because its your only chance to the light…which you don’t get forever to harness.

Self deceit is forgetting the one in the mirror is yourself.
