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.

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…
Consciousness does not depend on its creation
Like the wide open sky does not depend on its clouds, consciousnesses does not depend on its creations. It remains as it is, borderless impersonal presence. That is what I is. The fact that what appears disappears, does not imply that their reality appears and disappears. What is the reality of…
The reality of consciousness is not a belief.
The reality of consciousness is not a belief. Fear of death, as well as all fears are due to the belief that consciousness depends on form and thus is mortal and personal. Once the thorn of identification and ignorance is removed, fears are left with no legs to stand on.
Look at nobody and no one as your guide. Above all, realize you are alone, completely alone as all-one. Your all-oneness is complete and lacks no-thing. You are everything and nothing is possible without you, as everything and everyone is you. Don't worry about the labels of the mind. They are…
WHAT IS MIND REALITY? There is but one reality which imbues everything with itself. It manifests as everything, embracing everything and everyone in its selfless unconditional love. The mind separates creating the impression of separate realities and imposes conditions on the unconditional. It…
Sooner or later, you realize that you must stop spinning this spin.
Like the pink flying elephant seeks to lead the herd of pink flying elephants to better pastures, in the dream, the dream character you imagine yourself to be, seeks to better itself and its dream. When we attribute reality to the dream character and its illusory dreams, we get entangled in the…

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.…
Since everyone is busy with their minds and all what appears, it is your business to bring in the contemplation and to awaken to the reality that is beyond the dream. Although empty, the concerns of the mind are very powerful and not easy to overcome. You contemplate the Self on behalf of everyone…
Self-love or self-development?
Awakening to the true Self. We mistake the Self to be the personal self which we imagine ourself to be. In doing so, love which is universal and unconditional, becomes personal and discriminative. Our task is to realize the true Self, our true nature. Rather than being concerned about the personal…
Over and over you are told to be still, to rest as Being Awareness, not to move towards forms and objects and yet you continue to chase experiences, relationship and situation and thus, the sense of lack and incompleteness continues to haunt you. Come into the light and wisdom of the Dharma that…
THE INITIAL VEIL The veil of our true nature is the superimposition of ‘I am the body mind’. This initial assumption gives rise to the I-me-mind and me-feeling that triggers the I-thought and enivrates it. The mind becomes like a drunkard who is rambling at no end unaware of reality. Upon inquiry…
LEFTOVER VASANAS You can fool so-called others, and you can even fool yourself but for only so long. Eventually, the leftover vasanas that are not being addressed, which remain veiled by the partial understanding that we hold on to, will start to decay and the foul smell of ignorance will rise. The…
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 the purpose of visual experience?
What is the purpose of visual experience? ~~~ Visual experience refers to the reality that perceives it. Like your night dreams refer to the reality of the dreamer. Upon waking up you realize that the pink flying elephant in your dream was not real and only you (the dreamer) is real. Appearances…
When you are arguing, you have assumed yourself and the other. Assuming yourself is empty and void of reality. Whatever you assume is fiction. Thus your unhappy argumentation is empty and unreal. Why get so worked out? Instead, can you see through the charade? Can you remain still and in this…
What is it that is enlightened? What is it that gets enlightened?
What is it that is enlightened or gets enlightened? ~~ Given duality is illusion, given reality is non-dual, one could say everything is enlightened and one could say nothing is enlightened as long as there is clarity that there are no separate forms, no separate objects, no separate selves. One…
Do you believe in the existence of a soul?
DO YOU BELIEVE IN THE EXISTENCE OF A SOUL? Whatever one believes does not matter since it does not reveal what is real. What matters is to know what is real and not to hold on to beliefs which vary from tribe to tribe. If 'soul' is real, then 'soul' would be real right now, in this very instant…
As soon as we choose to identify with a self image or a belief, we have distanced ourselves from source. Drop the image, drop the belief, what remains? Images are fleeting. Thoughts and feelings are fleeting. They arise in the wholeness of Being. They do not represent truth nor do they have access…
