The heart of the matter. I have never in fact, encountered a thought. I know I am supposed to and yet, in my experience, I am unable to find a thought. Wherever and whenever I look, I only find I. I awarenessI presenceI-II beingness When I consider the thought: I love cardinalsI cannot find this…
Being with the other as a separate other, I overlook my true nature and I am not knowingly myself. Being with the other as my very self, I am knowingly myself and do not leave myself. The one and only Self. Knowing myself as universal being awareness, I recognize everyone and everything as myself.…
Attention returning to its source.
Attention returning to its source. Most of the time, via the senses, via perception, thinking, sensing, feeling, emoting, attention is focused on the content of experience. The experience is objective, material and personal made out of subjects and objects. In order for attention to turn itself…
What you truly are before, during and after thought, sensation or perception is the wide open screen of awareness. Borderless presence/knowingness. Infinite and eternal. Thought, sensation or perception is your intimate dream. Arising out of yourself as thought, perception or sensation, you do not…
Not to define ourselves. Not to struggle.
Not to define ourselves. Not to struggle. Is it possible to remain as one is? This pure space of awareness that is at rest? Seeking nothing. Being everything without ever separating itself. Dreaming all dreams without ever leaving itself. In a way, our argumentation is for naught. Of no use. The…
The activity of thinking, sensing and perceiving veils the wide open empty screen of being/awareness. Within thinking hides the belief in a separate thinker, within sensing the belief in a separate sensor and within perceiving the belief in a separate perceiver. Beyond thought, beyond mind…
The revelation that there is no one and that the seeker is not real brings the seeking mind to a new understanding. But. This new understanding does not reveal the full experiential embodiment of being/awareness. It is at the feeling level that the echoes of the separate self reside. To be…
It is possible to experience the mind from a place that does not move
It is possible to experience the mind from a place that does not move. No effort is needed. When you are trying, you are engaging the mind in the me-activity and this veils the peace of being and feeds the personal, which is a stream of thinking and feeling. It is very subtle. The person and the…
I does not refer to an object of perception.
I does not refer to an object of perception. I/awareness is not defined by thinking, feeling, sensing. Appearance refers to me while I remain undefined by appearance. I am beyond any reference as I am eternally self-referent. I am the transparent spaciousness of awareness. The transparency of…
Speaking of appearances: Being knowingly the transparency of being/awareness is void of subject/object and yet it is not an empty emptiness.  Although being/awareness is no thing and can be said to be empty, this emptiness/nothingness is simultaneously fullness/everythingness.  Thinking, feeling,…
Being aware of being aware can be understood as 'being/awareness', meaning there is no separate you that is being aware of being aware. It is awareness aware of itself. One could say it is awareness being-itself, in other words being knowingly awareness, without reliance on memory, without reliance…
An imaginary character can only make imaginary choices
An imaginary character can only make imaginary choices. Neither of which is the reality of awareness/consciousness. When you contemplate: I Am, you realize the vastness of formless awareness as the only reality. If there is choice, by that we mean real-choice, it must be the undertaking of that…
Everything you know, you know within yourself, awareness.
Everything you know, you know within yourself, awareness. All that which is known, is known as your very self, awareness. There is no knowing outside of awareness. Awareness is knowingness. Awareness is intimacy of knowing in which the known, the knowing and the knower are one. In fact, there is no…
We are one, Interconnected via awareness/consciousness.
We are one, Interconnected via awareness/consciousness. We arise out of the same source to realize the wholeness of being/awareness that we are, that everything is. We play together. It is so lovely Except when we go back into our bubble. The me-you bubble. So we contemplate this process. We…
The Dharma of words is not sufficient.
The Dharma of words is not sufficient. There is more to it. The collapse of the mind in its source reveals the complete absence of the diffracted separate self. Only awareness is. At first, consciousness is interested in itself via its creation. It creates the personal mind to explore a world and…
An imaginary character can only make imaginary choices.
Neither of which is the reality of awareness/consciousness. When you contemplate: I Am, you realize the vastness of formless awareness as the only reality.  If there is choice, by that we mean real-choice, it must be the undertaking of that which is real and not that which I imagine I am.  Santa…
Love is magic. It is like beauty, like truth and humor, a complete mind stopper. For those who contemplate truth, love is the destination as everything and everyone dies in love and is resurrected as love. It's timeless and cannot be spoken of except poetically. Death reveals love. Not the illusory…

Meditation is about the meditator
Meditation is not for the meditator. It is about the meditator. What is it that meditates? Meditation is through you and not by you. It comes to you like a visitor sent by the queen. The I-thought appears. To what does it appear? To That which does not appear. Simultaneously, the me-feeling appears…

Mechanical thought and the light of awareness
There is mechanical thoughtThe world body mind system And there is the light of being/awarenessShining onto everything and everyone. Simultaneously creating and Illuminating everything and everyone out of itselfLike the ocean creates waves out of itself Providing the play. Of weatherAnd wind…
From the mind perspectiveThere is good and badAnd a personal selfAs well as others. From the perspective of presence/awarenessIt’s a unific field of peace and stillness. Contemplation of the basic assumptionsReveals that the bases are loadedWith the belief that I am mortalThat there is something at…
I Am is faceless, formless. The reality of being/awareness. The face that appears to you is not what you are. It is an appearance like the appearance of the weather. The thoughts that appear to you do not know you. They are inert objects of perception. Taking your lead from the thoughts that appear…
Living according to your conditioning
As long as you continue to live according to your conditioning, you will experience the numerous unhappy conditions of the carnal mind. You will continue to experience the human roller coaster, the violence, the neglect, the abuse, the exploitation as long as you do not look deeply into your…
Like on a foggy day we cannot perceive the firmament, inside the dense bubble of thought we cannot perceive our true nature. Living the me-assumption, we are deluded in believing and feeling mortality, birth and death haunt us. Under the spell of personhood, the shining light of awareness eludes us…
