It's definitely a balancing act. An act that I am nowhere near perfecting. The simple and apparent fact that it's incredibly difficult to maintain such an aware state of mind and actively participate with other selves in a manner that's actually productive. When I've made such positive comments upon life, I'm immediately met with scoffs and disbelief to which I simply smile and move on to the next subject. Interacting with others with whom are so entrenched within the illusion, such comments are so abstract, it leaves one with the all to popular feeling of alienation.
On the flip side though. I completely agree with the grounding aspect of still living life to its fullest. To separate ones self from the illusion bypasses the preincarnative lessons one has created. It also denies the very reason we incarnated here which was to help those see this illusion as something positive and educational. To deny yourself the opportunity to help other selves purely to work upon the self to reach some magical ability, may be a service to the Creator and it quite possibly could be the path that one has chosen but considering such adept hood is extremely rare per Ra, I think many simply attempt to attain something greater than themselves for the sole purpose of hoping to be something more than they are. Because in reality, they do not accept that they aren't special when in fact they are all special in their own ways.
