What does it mean to be in the world but not of it?

Each human being has a story, as this story comes together it gathers momentum and forms a wave of thought which seems real. People start to believe this as their truth, when in point of fact it is our emotions, our fears, our happiness, our sadness which creates our stories, which we then believe to be true.

When we enter in deeply to the light of our beingness, when we still our minds, our fears, our desires, we are not adding to this story of the world; we are in the world but not of it.
