Hello, everyone. Lovely to see you.
So welcome.
We never leave that which we are. So the welcoming is always always there.
Presence welcoming itself, loving itself, loving everyone and everything as itself.
So welcome.
We can relax into being, Invite our body and our mind to this effortless relaxation.
There is the understanding that all is well in truth, in reality, and that the me-narrative which we take to be so serious, is just a narrative. And the feelings and the emotions that seem to be so powerful, they’re part of the passing dream.
Only love is real. And that is our true self, our essence, which we celebrate in life, in relationship, in various acts of compassion and kindness.
And this kindness is not somebody being kind, it is simply stepping out of the way.
Stepping out from veiling our natural kindness.
The veil of separation, the belief in separation, and yet, we are always rejoicing in love, rejoicing in friendship, while simultaneously, we believe in separation.
It seems so difficult at times to let things be as they are.
We’re so programmed to resist certain experiences and to seek some other something else.
And we are unable to perceive that all is well as it is, because there is no separate entity anywhere.
It’s just a a powerful programming. It’s a play, the play of separation.
You feel yourself to be somebody, and you cherish deep sleep where you completely forget that you are somebody.
Maybe we can forget for a moment in the waking state. Forget that we are somebody; that believe in this moment, a moment of presence, no time.
The mind is still. There is nowhere to go and no need to go anywhere. Coming and going, just a a play of mind.
Because in reality there is no coming and going. Being is.
Whatever appears on the screen, let it be. No matter what it is, no matter what form it takes or seems to take. There’s nothing you need to do and it’s okay.
Life goes on. You are this witnessing presence, this aware presence. Untouched, unaffected by the mind.
So, in a way, you could… One could say surrender. Maybe better to say: not to pursue anything.
To be completely available to whatever is appearing on the screen, it’s because it’s there for a flickering moment.
And it touches us sometimes. We’re touched by something we perceive. Because we’re not separate.
The stone that falls in the pond, and the ripples… the stone and the ripples are not separate.
It’s an expression of love, and the ripples for the pond.
Everything that you sense is an expression of love because you’re there, sensing it openly.
There is beauty in this openness that has no conditions.
It doesn’t know what it’s open to and doesn’t care.
All the issues that you imagine are fictitious because these issues refer to a fictitious character.
You are not the character. You are this effortless awareness, this invisible presence, the light of being.
And that’s the beauty. That’s the love. Right there.
Effortless. It’s always inviting us to recognizing ourself, recognizing the effortless peace, the love, the tranquility, the freedom.
This has nothing to do with the body mind, the world. Yet it shines onto onto the body-mind and onto the world. It’s the the light in the darkness.
So we invite ourself over and over to this Pure Presence.
Because as this pure presence, we are one and complete intimacy. The form and the formless. One essence.
In the ocean, there are no drops of water.
And in our life, there is an exploration of living this understanding that reality is one, all is well as it is.
There is nothing lacking anywhere. It’s all perfect.
Nothing is excluded. It’s a full embrace.
So we become more and more childlike, more and more innocent, spontaneous, not-knowing.
There’s a beautiful harmony to that.
It is a return to the source, which is what we are.
It is a journey without taking any step.
Because you already are that. And as you rest in this being, not-knowing, what is not essential drops away of its own.
That’s very beautiful.
So, if you have any questions, anything that you would like to explore, you know the drill (-;
Any questions?
