How about living as universal awareness?
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…
The conditions that arise to you are like the weather
The conditions that arise to you are like the weather. None of it is personal. What seems personal is meant as an invitation to look deeply into the reality of the person you believe and feel you are. It is not meant to punish you. There is no one to punish and no punisher. Punishment is made out…
We only experience now. Comparison is dream like, illusory. How can we compare anything outside of our current experience? When we are comparing, we are comparing our current experience with our current experience since we know nothing else but this current experience, as awareness. The problem is…
Although you experience the world via the body mind, it does not mean you are the body mind instrument. What appears to you is meant for your awakening from the belief and feeling that you are the body mind instrument. Your innate freedom is veiled by your identification with/as the body mind.…
Acceptance and non acceptance are a myth. Upon closer scrutiny, it is revealed that there is no acceptor that chooses to accept or reject. Like Santa Claus does not choose when he leaves the North Pole, similarly you never choose anything. Either you recognize your choicelessness or you ignore your…
Once you imagine consciousness to be mortal
When you imagine consciousness to be mortal, you have stepped away from the divine wisdom of the Self. When you imagine yourself to be born, to be a man, woman or any gender, you have adorned the unhappy cloak of mortality. The contemplation: ‘What am I truly? ’ ‘What is the reality of my…
Some folks say that the only thing that does not change is change itself. They foolishly speak that the only thing that is permanent is impermanence. If you believe this statement, you are believing a falsehood. In fact, reality is changeless. In your experience, the reality of…
When you imagine yourself to be born, to be a man, woman or any gender, you have adorned the unhappy cloak of mortality. The contemplation: ‘What am I truly? ’ ‘What is the reality of my experience? ’ bypasses thought and reveals the source. Without such contemplation, without complete surrender,…
You are where you are meant to be
You are where you are meant to be. There are no accidents. Everything that is required for your unfolding is right here right now. This is the totality, the globality, the entirety. Nothing missing. Dive deeply into the inquiry of the reality of your current experience. Thus you awaken to the Self.

When we look at our experience, we realize that there is only now. And we may realize that this now is not made out of time. In fact, the now has a measurement of zero time. Once you come to deeply understand the now that has zero time, the entire conversation about 'after' and 'before' becomes a…
Reality, truth cannot be expressed in words
Reality, truth cannot be expressed in words. It can only be known as our direct experience. Words can point and draw a rendition or representation of truth. Words are pointers but awakening is beyond words. It is helpful when the listening is the openness and not the engaged mind which is…
When you say reality is ‘this’ or ‘this is it’, you may be on point or you may be off
When you say reality is ‘this’ or ‘this is it’, you may be on point or you may be off depending on what you are referring to. If by ‘this is it’ you are referring to body mind matter, you are off since you are referring to manifestation, you are referring to nama rupa (name and form) which are mind…
So many manifestations of the One!
So many manifestations of the One! All of which appear intimately As I The intimacy of Self! Complete intimacy. You never experience anything other than Self. What appears Appears to I, as I Arises out of I Refers to I Even when it appears to refer to otherness It refers to I Notice the intimacy of…
Squirrels hopping from branch to branch chasing each other.
Squirrels hopping from branch to branch chasing each other. The Kwak Kwak Kwak sound of the crows in the distance. Birds at the birdfeeder and the gentle swing of the bare branches in the winterours space. What a wonder! Not apart from breath From the taste of tea Fingers on the keyboard The soft…
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…
THE MEANING OF ETERNITY Being has never not been. What is not has never been. Isness cannot be not-isness I AM cannot not-be The meaning of eternity is I AM Borderless Being/Awareness Not in time and space Look directly at your experience Before any download And you will recognize the meaning…
Life is about happiness and our ‘mission’ is to awaken to causeless happiness
Life is about happiness and our 'mission' is to awaken to causeless happiness and go beyond the (so-called) happiness that depends on objects, that depends on relationships, that depends on experiences or situations. Only upon becoming free from all conditions are we able to celebrate causeless…
About silence and stillness. ~~ There is a quality of silence that is beyond the mind, that is not imposed by thought, that is not conceived by the mind, that is not manufactured, that is not created. It permeates everything. Actually, it is complete intimacy with what we refer to as everything, it…
Contemplate that which is unmoved in your experience
Contemplate that which is unmoved in your experience. Contemplate the permanent. If you remain enamored and hypnotized by what appears, you will be the prey of your thoughts and feelings. You will be like a yo-yo trying to find peace and balance in that which cannot provide it. Find that which is…
Whenever the wind of change appears in your life, you run away
Whenever the wind of change appears in your life, you run away and hide behind your complaining mind and your thinking, but this doesn’t help in any way. Whenever you meet change with your complete presence without playing the tricks of thinking, blaming, whining, regurgitating, you will find a…
DESIRE We imagine a separate object that we imagine to be apart from our experience and simultaneously, we imagine ourself to be a separate subject that lacks the imagined object. Desire is a dualistic imagining that separates us, but not really. Separation is imagination. This internal mechanism…
I notice that there is no difference between me and whatever appears to me
I notice. I notice that there is no difference between me and whatever appears to me. I notice, I know and I feel there is no difference between me and you. You perceive, I perceive. You breathe, I breathe. One breath. I can see how petty you sometimes can be and I know that it is very possible…
TURIYA. What is the experience of no self?
TURIYA. What is the experience of no self? Turiya cannot be comprehended by the mind. It cannot be comprehended by a separate self since Turiya is the absence of separation, the dissolution of the veils of duality. The ending of the subject-object dichotomy. Turiya is not an experience as we…
