Reminder to my ego:
I am not important.
I am not wise.
I dont know anything. Nothing I know. I dont know one single fact or thing. I have nothing to give.
I am deluded. I am a dream dreaming the dream of the dream.
I dont know anything about the world, about humans, about the mind, about myself, about nature, about meaning, about future, about purpose.
I am not a looser, not a winner. I am not prominent or a role model for one single human.
The only thing I can do is to say: “dont do like me” or “live your own life”. I say this, and yet… not even this I know.
Life… It can be lived. I can live. I dont know this. I assume. It appears like it… that I can live and see for a while.
I dont exist as any thought. I am when self is not. I can not teach. We can share. Share our lives. Life can teach me humility. In the true sense of the word. Without anyone being humble.
Life is my teacher. You are. All of you. Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you for what ever you are and what you give or receive.
Life is so good…
well…you know that you are not important….and if you go through the whole list of what you know you don’t know……then you know nothing…..and thus you know yourself……..the absolute…the field of unlimited possibilities…including that you know everything
Tanks Gerry. Yes, we the define “what is” by telling what is not. That’s why I talk so much.
hmmmmmm…….yet truth is revealed in the silence……..I guess you know that as we talk we are not. Do you think that we come down from this truth of silence….and talk…….for the purpose of bringing others up? Isn’t that bodishavatta?
The only truth is love…….sending you heeps .And as you send me yours…which is mine anyway…..we both change physically…..even walking through walls perhaps?
Thank you Gerry
You will receive something treasurable in exchange.
I don know really.
Talking happens sometimes.
“What is”, make use of me that way.
I don’t exist as a person, but it may appear as if I do.
I am only “what is”. We all are, but the mind has the power to create small ponds out of the mighty eternal river
Bodhisattvas… well, that’s a Buddhist term… How could we escape this suffering? We will continue to be part of this samsara life. Would you escape if you could? How could we really. There is no such choise.
thank you too……even though there is no you to receive that thanks nor me to send it. Now a more practical……meaning illusionary…….lol…..question. How is it possible that an earnest student of years, nay decades………like me…….allows his body to carry out criminal acts………and yes…I have stated: not guilty….for it just happens…….but…as you said….the pain lingers.
thank you for this excellent site.
gerry
Well… I guess you know the answer to this allready.
When you are not totally free you have a will. You want things to be your way then, and the “your-way” is made up by belief in a possible illusionary reality. Dreams, wishes, desires, aggressions can not exist when you have seen “what is”.
Criminal acts are defined by a made up law. The best law is in a pure mind and heart.
But when you transcend your self you adapt to and accept most laws.
What is the criminal act if I may ask?
Is it criminal but not unethical? Because unethical behavior is impossible to indulge in after seeing the absolute. It is like doing harm on your self. Since all is part of you, you will rather be harmed than harm, in the true state.
Hi seeingwhatis,
I am looking through this blog and really cherishing the wisdom. But I do not seem to find any information about your organization or path (if you are leading one) ?
thank you for the kind words. You are correct, I am not leading any organization, nor have I ever been on any path, except for the common one, the strive for fortune etc. Life never made sense, but now it does.
I live in Sweden, and am an architect to the profession. I have no idear, what life have in “mind” for me. I am a father. I am greatful and happy. Always. Please comment more, I love talking
Joakim
Thank you for your response!
. Thank you for the list of modern masters.
It is quite impressive.. what you write sound like the words of an enlightened one
Life in itself is designed so that we all evolve and discover whatis. I am still learning to get to a point where I would be happy always
Yes Vidya,
We all evolve. This is clear. I see progress in.People Every Day.
Life is wonderful.
Every second of it. How long is a moment any way? A slice of time… how thick is it? Does it have no thickness or ALL thickness there is?
We live in the Now.
Stopping believing ANY thought is stopping believing. Stopping believing is stopping becoming.
Then you ARE allready.
You ARE of course allready “what is”.
And there is no point except right now when you can choose to accept this.
Only right now.
HI Seeingwhatis,
So I read deeper into your blogs, and see that you have mentioned your way to enlightenment was through great suffering. You lost everything and through that you finally achieved what we perceive as enlightenment.. A state where you are autonomous as far as your emotions are concerned, you do not depend on others or outside to feel happiness or love.. am I right ?
Although I have gone through suffering in life, and had awakenings through them, I have never known what to do in such a state to be able to find the love and happiness within. What I am looking for is what is practically or physically to be done, when everything in you tells you to seek happiness outside (and causes suffering coz you still cannot get happiness outside) ? Did you have any practice you followed ? What is the way to go beyond the genetic coding we are born with ? Is it exhaustive observation– which also is a very confusing term. Do you just breathe n observe till the pain goes away?
Looking for some practical answers, and would like to know your experience/answer on this
Hi Vidya. Its very simpel. So simpel that mist dont believe it to be true, they dont see it as a possibility.. The answer is that when you can “do nothing” or when you don’t do ANYTHING, you get enlightened (so called). How? Just accept (100%) what Is. Accept everything. Don’t resist even your thoughts. See them. Don’t believe Any thing. Any thought. Accept everything. Now. And now. And now. And now. Accept it as it is. This is the only way. Can you do it? No one can. But if you no longer believe in a (“your”) self, it can will happen. Instantly. Then keep on not believing anything, until the ego is just a powerless tool that you don’t feel identified with. Look at the earth. The ground. The trees. The people, with their agendas. Understand that this is the universe. It’s not out there. It’s everywhere. It’s here. It’s all there is. And your consciousness seem to register it. But your consciousness has no beginning and no end. You are what you see. You are everything, but not your ego. Well, also that, but no more than you are one of a million Leeds in the wind, and the wind, and the motion of the leef and the water in the leef and the cells. Concepts and concepts. You are that but without the words and the meaning. Accept. And don’t believe. Then it may happen. In a few minutes. If you accept fully. This. Is. It. Skickat från min HTC
Ok, I Will answer on a more practical level. But also say some strange things.
There is no enlightenment. It’s just the true state. We are born such, and many die seeing this. But we go into illusion in between.
If you have an awakening, then don’t do anything. Then it will last. It will last until you start believing things.
Don’t think about it. Do this meditation then “I will not believe my next thought” . Do it constantly for 7 weeks. Then you will “burn” all belief in concepts during that time. You will see every thing there is once again, in a new light. A chair, a lewd, a hamd, an eye, everything. You will look at it and understand what it really is.
After that, which I call enlightement, which is a process (ment to be) you can not fool your self again.
If you don’burn everything, you will have stuff left to burn.
It’s a very normal thing this enlightenment. And totally.mindblowing
Yes, you are correct. It’s about being autonomous. Totally. Not relating.
Not assuming.
I know all I know, the rest I don’t know and l don’t assume. This way its possible to see a long chain of “facts” uninterrupted by thoughts. It will make you appear as a genious. It’s just a lack of delusion. Things are very clear, but s called intelligence makes us all extremely limited and stupid.ind can only focus at one thing at a time.
Some so called supernatural stuff take place. Auras seen and shapes and knowing things before they occure, and ability to master and turn of pain. And lucid dreaming. And manifesting things. Etc. Don’t belive in this. Don’t pay attention to it. It’s not imporyant
Thank you. I will do this (or stop not doing this
) and share what I discover. Thank you very much!
You are welcome (into existensen)
