Every moment you have the opportunity for stillness. The contemplation of the unmoved peace of being. It is this contemplation, this sort of return to your true nature, the recollection of the peace and stillness of being, which establishes you as the transparency and peace that you have always…
The mind perceives object and does not perceive the source
The mind perceives object and does not perceive the source that creates it and perceives it. The light of Being creates/shines as mind but is not defined by what it creates/shines upon and as. Irrespective of how it shines it remains as it is, whole and complete. Beyond the narrow confines of the…

The personal self is an add on
When you realize that the personal aspect is an add on that veils and spoils the breadth of impersonality, you drop it and you keep dropping it because it is stubbornly residing in your felling state resulting in the impression of a personal self. Then you realize that even this dropping is not an…
Being knowingly the Self ~~ Indeed, "fascination with objects" does not remove presence. Nothing does since there is nothing apart from it to remove it. . In essence and in appearance, all is presence. (All events are none other than presence). And yet, there is quite a difference between "being…
Indeed, "Fascination with objects" does not remove presence. Nothing does since there is nothing apart from it to remove it. . In essence and in appearance, all is presence. (As you say, that event is none other than presence). And yet, there is quite a difference between "being presence knowingly"…
THE SENSE OF SELF. BEING-KNOWINGNESS
THE SENSE OF SELF. BEING-KNOWINGNESS There is little doubt that there is what appears. There is also little doubt that there is this sense of self. The sense of existence. What we call I. One could say that what appears is interrelated to self, to I. One could see it for oneself. This intimacy…
We are one as everything. Aren’t we?
We are one as everything. Aren’t we? We share the same feelings and so much more. We recognize each other. My sorrows. Your sorrows. Same same. We are more similar than we think. Like two drops of water. We play the game of being separate. But it is not so. The truth is so much deeper than the…
I does not differ across time and space
I does not differ across time and space. I refers to the spaciousness of being which does not take on the qualities of thought and does not change as our experience changes. When we say I we are always referring to that spaciousness. It is as I that we are one. The I is indivisible, non dual. Isn’t…
SIMPLE PRESENCE Although it seems that experience is complex Thoughts, memories, concerns, feelings, worries, plans There is also this moment of presence Like a virgin screen Peaceful, tranquil We notice the hum of the refrigerator The shining light of the sun onto the deck The squirrel hopping on…
What we refer to as the body is an open borderless space of awareness that embraces everything. Within this space of being/presence, awareness is everything, without any separate doer or observer. The breath, thought, the swinging branches of the trees, the song of the birds in the distance…

The seamlessness of Being/Awareness.
The water is contained in the glass The glass is contained in the room The room is contained in the house The house is contained in the neighborhood The neighborhood is contained in the village The village is contained in the district. What is the real container beyond thought? The harmony of…
We are so preoccupied with our own fate
We are so preoccupied with our own fate and our own lot and rarely do we ask ourselves what we are doing that expresses our recognition of our inherent interconnection and wholeness with everyone and everything? What is our responsibility besides being self concerned? What is it that we are doing…
You consider yourself to be a person
Notice how without even being aware of it, most of the day and night, you consider yourself to be a person and most of your thoughts are about me, my life, my work, my home, my future, my relationships. So you remain preoccupied caught up in the feelings, the emotions. This spin goes on and on.…

Breathing, shared breath. Containing everything, embracing everything. One breath. Feels like no breath. And yet, yes there is breath and strangely, simultaneously there is no breath. Such intimacy, such mystery! We call it breath. What is it we are calling breath? What is it? The mind is satisfied…
FEAR What is it? What am I? What is happening? I want to know. What for? To know what? What is there to know? What is it to know? Wanting a story Wanting a narrative That I can flip and flip As it flips me I want thought and more thought So I can remain on the roller coaster Of the winds of thought…
THE LIGHT OF BEING Step out into the shining light It shines through you Onto everyone and everything Revealing true nature As nothing and everything Step out into the shining light Nothing to hide Nothing to protect All is revealed As it is Step out into the shining light It may not seem easy Yet…
The Self is beyond all realms whether they are material, mental, rational or emotional. While the Self is the source of all impressions, it is not downstream of its impressions. It remains its own source, its own reality standing on its own as the one and only reality. The reality of…
What is this separate self that haunts you?
What is this separate self that haunts you, this person that you believe you are? What is this me and you that separates that which is inseparable? In the absence of the I-thought and the You-thought, in the absence of the old story that divides us, in the absence of images that we identify with,…
