as a pure game. It will help much release.
Even if a person plays a role there is some reason in it. That role has some significance to the person. If the game is played perfectly, something from the unconscious will disappear, evaporate, and you will be freed from a burden.
For example if you want to play like a child, that means that in your childhood something has remained incomplete. You could not be a child as you wanted to be; somebody stopped you. People made you more serious, forced you beyond your age, made you to appear more adult and mature than you were. Something has remained incomplete there. That incompletion demands to be completed and it will continue to haunt you. So finish it. Nothing is wrong in it. You could not be a child that time, back in the past; now you can be.
Once you can be totally in it, you will see that it has disappeared and then it will never come again.

Then you are not an outsider. You become part of the family, and that helps. Resistance is dropped.
That's the whole whole meaning of sannyas -- to become part of my family, so you don't think in terms of your own ego or in terms of your individuality. Rather you start thinking in terms of me and sannyas and-the work that is going on.
By and by you put yourself aside, and the work becomes more important, more valuable. That will deepen your understanding and will help
