The mind can be a playful field

There is no lasting happiness in the world body mind

A realization that happens for an individual consciousness and not for the neighbor next door is not what I refer to as realization since an individual consciousness remains. Meaning a sense of limitation remains. Separation remains. Realization, as I use the term, refers to the revelation that I…
What the mind refers to as a personal body is an impression arising in the borderless, limitless, universal cosmic body. As the limited personal impression fades in your contemplation, the borderless universal quality of consciousness is revealed. The impression of separation is maintained via your…
The mind does not want to know
The mind asks questions. All sorts of questions. Sometimes the most ridiculous question. For the mind, it does not matter if the question is ridiculous, nonsensical or not. As long as there is a separate me, the personal mind impression remains on board and maintains itself. In fact, the separate…

Question: What is thought? Is this where separation occurs? Reply: Separation is the belief that I, consciousness, am limited to a particular form, to a particular body mind. Separation occurs at the mental level, meaning at the thought level as well as at the feeling level meaning at the body…
All things fall in the realm of right and wrong, in the realm of opposites. All things are mind events. It is the mind that philosophizes and argues. As the mind perceives external things (world), it simultaneously perceives an internal thing (separate self) as well and therefore division and…
A question from a friend about sex
Friend: Hi. I have a personal question. When you have sex with the person you love and you say you are making love, is this really true? Is sex part of the illusion? Is that the separate self?

The illusion of objectivity. ~~~ You believe there are bits and pieces in the universe while in fact there is no such thing. It is like the fingers in your hand that seem to be separate while in fact they are this one hand. You believe you have an independent reality while in fact your reality is…
What ‘I’ are you referring to?

We bathe in love, as we seek it
When we feel like a separate self, when we come from the sense of limitation and lack, the wholeness of our true nature evades us. From that perspective there is not enough love to go around. Thus we look out onto the world to fulfill us, which it can't. Until we discover that we are whole and…

Consciousness is already enlightened.
Consciousness is already 'enlightened'. Obstacles are imagined and are the result of identification with mortality. The open field of awareness is borderless and infinite and is unencumbered by any structure. The seeming obstacles are mirages and not real of their own. It is the reality of…
The impression of separation is a contraction of the open space of being. The limitation of identification with mortality, with the mortal body mind creates a contraction in the open space of being. It diminishes our experience from infinite joyful openness to the restrictive me-feeling. Our true…
