Do not be so concerned about your past thoughts and deeds. All is well and is meant to be as it is. What matters is for you to turn your attention to the reality that you are. And this reality is not a limited personal impression. Not a limited consciousness. No limited impression limits the…
Do not mistake yourself to be the body mind
In the waking state, do not mistake yourself to be the body mind sensations and perceptions. Recognize yourself to be beyond the mind images and bodily sensations. When you rely on the images and sensations to define you, you have defined yourself according to what is transient and impermanent and…
The invitation from the guru is to realize the Self, to see/be the undivided wholeness that you are. The guru is not a person and does not perceive persons. Truth/Reality is one seamless whole. You can call it love, freedom, joy, beauty. It is the experience of causeless peace and happiness that is…
Truth is eternal. It is love for truth that is the highest teaching and it is love for truth that makes the teaching and the teacher possible. All else is empty words and fleeting images. Contemplate your question and keep your question alive via your interest and contemplation and it will lead you…
The arguing mind resists the stillness and goes for the spin. The whirlwind of the spin is confusing and unhappy, excites and overloads the body mind with vibrational argumentation. Be still. Stillness is at the heart of contemplation . invites the body mind to rest in the shining light of…
There is a calling from beyond, from the divine. calling you to recognize your inherent freedom, to recognize the peace, to celebrate the joy, the happiness, the sense of awe and wonder! This call is often hijacked by the me, by this habitual imaginary identity that believes consciousness is…
The revelation is that I am already the Buddha appearing as infinite mind impressions without ever being stained or tainted by any. While I do nothing, all seeming things are done by me. All phenomenal events are infused with my grace. Like during the night dream, all dream events are infused by…
Contemplate the reality of your experience
Conversation with a friend. ~~~ ~~~ As you continue to contemplate the reality and truth of your experience, the personality patterns will become less and less important and less and less predominant. The path of love and beauty will continue to unfold and will continue to attract you until you can…
I AM the Self eternal Dreaming all dreams. Undivided and indivisible I AM. Whichever way you look, I look. I AM. Whichever direction you go I do not move. As you. As I . As everyone As everything. Come home Come to me Come to your trueSelf. The Self you have never ceased to be. The Self eternal…
The Self is already effortless & eternal peace, relaxation and freedom. Complete availability and peace. Superimposed onto the Self is the me-cloud-story-history-concerns and argumentations of the imagined person we mis-take ourselves to be. In turning your attention beyond the mind, to the…
A comfort zone is often a hiding place
A comfort zone is often a hiding place for the imagined separate self you mis-take yourself to be. Maintaining the crouched position does not bring you into the light . does not reveal the light and freedom that you inherently are. Lisa T: Please explain comfort zone Magdi! Magdi: Lisa, Comfort…
You contaminate pristine clarity with the me-mind and various desires. but it is important to ask: 'What is, in fact, being contaminated? ' If you pursue this question unceasingly, you arrive at the pristine source and realize there never was, after all, any real contamination. The Self is…
A few words about enlightenment. ~~~. Enlightenment, as a glimpse in the Self is not an experience since the mind is not present. The mind comes after the fact to take the glory that it has not earned. And yet, the mind gets altered by this non-event as the Humpty Dumpty egg gets cracked, allowing…
There is nothing to realize – is a pointer that is incomplete
There is nothing to realize - is a pointer that is incomplete. When such a pointer is taken out of a wider teaching context, it may be misleading. The realization of the Self is not nothing. It is the revelation of the truth that IS. The nothing state is empty and void of the perfume of the Self.…
All movement is mind. There is no movement when it comes to the Self. Impressions of movement in the waking state are similar to movement in the dream state except they are more convincing. The true dreamer dreams all dreams out of itSelf while remaining unmoved, untouched by the dream. The…
When you are established as peace and happiness

The supremacy of consciousness is unparalleled and unrivaled.
You contaminate pristine clarity with the me-mind and various desires. but it is important to ask: 'What is, in fact, being contaminated? ' If you pursue this question unceasingly, you arrive at the pristine source and realize there never was, after all, any real contamination. The Self is…
There are no landing strips to the Self as it is the infinite open space of awareness, velcro free, limitation free, structureless, boundless. Brimming with love. Nothing personal about it as it includes everything and everyone. Wherever you move, there is no movement to or away from the Self. No…
Nihilism refers to a conceptual understanding of the Self. "There is no-one and the world is not real", is only an interim stage towards the realization of the Self. When the world body mind is seen as emptiness but the fullness of the Self is not revealed, the understanding is partial and often…
Yes. It is the scent of the Self that leads us to the Self. Our love for happiness leads us to happiness. . Happiness that is causeless and eternal. Our love for the Self is innate to our true nature since we are the Self eternal. The recognition of this innate love of Self re-calibrates our…
About thought and the absence of thought ~~~ ~~~ Is thought disturbing? Thought causes no real disturbance. Nothing disturbs the Self. Rather (the impression of) disturbance is is the result of the belief that I, consciousness, am limited, personal and mortal. Such a belief leads to unhappiness and…
All is well. All is ever well. It is no other way when you celebrate whatever unfolds by meeting everything with your acceptance and grace. You might not right away recognize the gift that is being offered and that is OK. As you remain in your acceptance, which is not resignation, you feed the love…
What can be lost and gained is ephemeral
What can be lost and gained is ephemeral, is not eternal and not what I am. When you regret the ephemeral, your regrets are misplaced and of no use. What you truly are cannot be added to nor diminished. I appear as all appearances, as each one of you, as all perceptions. Through perceptions, you…
It is a trickery of thought. through the I-thought the sense of limitation is maintained. When we believe the I-thoughts, we give them power and the impression of separation seems real. In fact, the only reality is the reality of the Self and none other. What is perceived is inert and cannot reveal…
