hello nathan
patrick frank hello mina hi jeff salue shiva
so you’re welcome to turn your attention inward
and welcome yourself as the peace causeless peace of being
no need for any images no need for memory or any particular activity
resting without anyone doing anything
which is a sort of recognition that that which we are
is restfulness itself
there may be sounds and sensations
but they appear in this profound and bottomless silence
that which we are this formless presence
may take on the form of a sensation a thought
but it does not define itself as whatever it is that it creates and perceives
your reality is this borderless
non non-local vastness
beingness
the peace of being
which is not caused not the result of a certain experience
not the result of any feeling
or any particular
meditation
because the causeless peace of being
that which you are that which perceives this moment this perception
it’s not the result of any cause
is not the result of any mind activity
understanding about our true nature is not something that you do
it is something that is done through you
in religious terms one could say it is god’s understanding shining through your mind and body
mature mind and body belong to god they belong to the universe they are an aspect of the totality
the totality is not a result of the parts which composite
that which you are is not the result of birth and death of body minds or is not the result of cosmic arrays or galactic fields
between each thought and between each perception between each image you are
like between every cloud the sky is space is
but also every thought every perception and every cloud is permeated by the sky its substance its essence its reality
is universal consciousness the transparency of being
peace means no position no opposing force that mind that is no longer puzzled
a body that is not psychologically contracted
which is revealed to be your true self
once your identification your phenomenal identification any identification
has ceased to interest you and has ceased to
operate within your being within your body mind
peace is not something that you gain and lose
so we can release your sense of self into the vastness
without any worry or concern
inviting grace to permeate your entire being
to be available without expectation
to live life as this availability is openness without conditions
the mind operates in according to certain rules and structures which apply more or less successfully in the realm of phenomena
but when it comes to reality to the understanding about true nature the mind is helped
assisted by the scriptures by the teaching guided but from beyond
this guidance directs the mind towards its source
and there the mind can soak into the the bliss of the self
and be healed
from the impression of separation and the unhappiness of the belief of being a person
