Decide…. Decide now…. whether you are the object seen by what you referre to as “I”. Or if you are the subject, that calls itself “I”.
Or neither.
Before the naming… There is objectifying.
Even saying I am what I am, is a lie.
You are not even the beeingness.
You are.
But what is a verb to everything, not separate from anything?

He:

“It seems u see things very clear without doubt. Did this all came out of the (non) realisation or also from reading? Reason i ask is because there is a feeling that it has to come from own experience.

Also read some of ur reaction to someone talking about soul etc after birth. I have such fear that we have a soul. Don t ask me why lol i don t know. A lot of irrational fears. Believing we are one, kind of makes me feel at rest. But still there is doubt what is really truth.”

Me:

“Realization is instant and that means we realize EVERYTHING – instantly. Dressing this truth in words may take a while though. If you try to. Of course its impossible to dress the truth in lies. Some “people” never try to communicate the impossibility of communication – to verbally communicate the impossibility of verbal communication… They may be the ones that is most grounded in the absolute, but not necessarily, since no conclusions is ever possible to draw. Only a person, an individual believing in his own existence, draws conclusions.

We draw conclusions with our conditioned mind. We project. If we are still believing individuals, continuously becoming our conditioned mind.

Our projections is always the outcome of a conditioned (narrrow) MINDED perspective. When trapped in that illusionary state, we can not see anything BUT our “own” made up truth.

Its nothing wrong with being a dreamer, if we like our dream. But its a dream. Or, lets say, its just One of an infinity of possible dreams. And this infinity of dreams, of possible realities, if seen simultaneously, leaves you with no certainty of anything. Actually you see that you are nothing except for this seeing, which has no limit, so you are everything without an end or beginning.

It feels similar to being in awe. But there is noone beeing anything but what IT is. Its the beeing itself. The beeing beeing the beeing.

Thats all.

So, here I am talking. It seems. But I am not. Not really. Talking happens through this spot in everything which used to believe in his own existence. It sound as a perfect excuse. As a made up and undefeatable argument. But noone here believes in arguments. So its not really a discussion. Its “what is” manifesting as a human beeing without a mind.

Thats all.

And this is what “what is” does. Thats all. Apparently.

So keeping quiet or talking is not important. And noone can tell from that, if its “what is” talking or “what is” keeping quiet. “What is” never talks or keep quiet.

It just happens. It just IS what it is. Thats what “what is” does. It is the beeing in itself. It IS the doing. With emphasis in IS. It is Issing the Issnes. Thats all. Thats the only happening taking place.

We humans interpret it as something else, that we recognize. We assume stuff. Thats what minds do.

Assume stuff based on assumptions, based on assumptions.

There is a soul – to answer your question. For those believing in a soul, there is a soul.

For those not believing in a soul, there is no soul.

I too would be scared shitless, if I was a person, and believed in a soul.

Most people want to believe in a soul, and they will have their soul, again and again.

It doesnt remember stuff, and it isnt guided by guides and stuff, unless it believes in guides. Then it will be. But its a dream.

If you believe in Jesus, you will meet jesus, and if you believe in, and fear hell, you will go to hell. But its just a dream. And its not for eternity. But it may feel like it.

Whatever you believe will come true. Thats all. Thats a fact. That applies to this life too. Whatever you expect or fear WILL BE your experience. For good and for worse. So dont paint the devil on the door. Celebrate the good things. Do nothing else. Be greatful. That way you will see the good things and create good things. In reality it doesnt matter. We dont have a choise. And we learn in the speed that we do learn. When having a negative experience, embrace the learning, and the actuallity of it all. Dont resist. Be sad when sad. Totally sad. Then you can go on, when sadness is dealt with. Not reinforced by resistence to it.

When the made up soul have learned that there is no soul, it wont believe in a soul anymore. And then there is no soul. Thats the end.

But if we believe in a soul, even the slightest, then there is a soul. It will appear again on earth. As a worm, a snail, a wasp or a buddha.

I think I am still a believer. I think deep inside me there is someone that believes in something. Or I dont think so, but I am open to the possibility. I dont know. I dont know anything. It seems reasonable that there is some belief hidden inside me. Somewhere. And if there is, I will continue to exist. To suffer death and illness and loss and trauma.

I am not scared of suffering, but like jesus, hanging on the cross, we may see when faced with the reality of intensed suffering, that we cant stand it.

Doubt is belief.

Believing is doubting.

“What is” just is what it is.

Happy new instant everyone!

Dont forget to see the eternal now, every now and again. And again.

Its all there is.

Du är det du är.
Du är inte din eller andras berättelse om dig.
Du är inte vad du tror. Du är inte tro. Du är inte tro på personlig framgång eller nederlag.
Du är inte misslyckad. Du är inte en succé.
Du är.
Vi kan aldrig veta vad detta är, detta vad vi är.
Vetande tillhör drömmen.
Se denna din oförmåga till vetande.
Allt vi tror oss veta är egentligen något vi tror.
När vi verkligen vet något, blir ordet “veta” överflödigt.
Vi vet då att vi vet, och utan tvivel finns ej ens en diskussion kring detta vetande.
Vi kan bara se. Bara falla fritt i flödet som är Allt, som är det som ÄR.
Vad är vi i allt detta?
Och hur lyckades vi ställa oss utanför allt som är vad det är?
Är Gud min beskrivning utav Gud? Och hur lyckades jag göra Gud så otroligt liten, och relativ till mina och andras tolkningar utav min beskrivning?
Du är allt.
Du är ej separerad från någonting.
Allt du gör förändrar världen för all framtid.
Detta nu sitter ihop med evigheten åt alla håll.
Tiden är inte linjär. Tiden är inte ett streck genom stjärnhimlen, och ett ögonblick har ingen tjocklek. Ingen början. Inget slut.
Lev.
Se ditt levande.
Älska utan villkor eller exkluderande.
Hur kan vi säga vad eller vem som är värda vår kärlek.
Vad är då vår kärlek?
Gränslös? Evig? Oändlig?
Kärlek är allt som finns. Själva livskraften.
Resten är påhitt.
Allt annat förändras. Allt utom själva förändringen i sig självt.
Ur ingenting har allt du ser kommit.
Och tillbaka till ingenting ska vi åter.
Vi kan vinka till varandra här idag. Skratta åt det fantastiska att vi kan vinka. Att vi kan se oss själva genom andras ögon och se varandra (oss själva) genom “våra egna”.
Det finns bara en dans. Och den är överallt.
Det är allt som finns.
Och när du följer med i dansen upphör allt motstånd i universum ögonblickligen. Utan fördröjning.
Allt motstånd fallar in i mellanrummet du skapat mellan då och sedan.
Nästa ögonblick tillåts vara vad det är, och blir inte en fotostatkopia utav det förflutna. Inte en reaktion, men en förändring.
Något nytt föds ur din dans.
Och du har gjort vad ingen människa tidigare lyckats med.
Du har förändrat allt som är, genom att inte reagera.
Le, fira, dansa, se.
Älska, skratta, gråt, fall, flyt.
Förlåt, ske, var varat… eller… ära ärigheten.

You may not know this.

But you are perfect already.

You don’t have to change.

You only have to stop becoming – to be happy for all time to come.

The hardest thing to believe. That you are ok.

You tell yourself every day, every minute, that you can do better, be better, be more beautiful, nicer, or loose some weight.

Be a better parent. A better lover. Better in bed.

You dont have to change.

See this.

And that will be the only change necessary.

After accepting yourself, you will accept most people around you. And they can be at their best. When you dont judge them like you judge yourself.

Tell them this:

“You are perfect.”

And watch their reaction.

They will resist, and insinuate that you are not perfect either.

Funny. 🙂

Insist. You are perfect, and so are they.

This is the truth.

I promise.

Something you dont know about your self.

You are perfect.

You dont have to change,

You can stop adapting now, and stop becoming.

You are already it. Everyone are, but few recognize this.

After realizing this, people may tell you you are not it. Still.

But that simply isn’t true.

The only thing that wasn’t you, was the thing you had to become, but never succeeded to become.

The dream.

Wasn’t perfect.

Wasn’t you.

Welcome home. You are home now.

Where you can rest in your self.

You see, wanting this to happen, is just another phrasing of “I doubt what I see” or “I doubt it can happen” or “I doubt that I can see what is there to see in front of me”.
There is nothing to doubt.

You can see this. You are seeing it. But you are doubting what you see. Who is doubting? Who does not want to see? Well… the one that cant see it, the “thoughts” or the “ego”.
Ego/thoughts is afraid it will vanish if this is seen. And that it will 🙂
So dont listen to thoughts. They will try to trick you into questioning things, which is a state of pure thought.
So dont question your ability too see this, that “this is it”.

If you get a glimpse of “this is it”, then you should write down the “thought” that led you to it, or what you did when you saw it. This is a gateway for fast acces to this seeing, if it goes away.
Then just sit and do this seeing again and again, and remember what you did (in detail) last time or the first time you dropped thought and saw that “this is it”.

You may now drop all practices except the one that works for you. Just access the “seeing” and See.

You dont have to meditate ever again. Just See.
See that “THIS is IT”. All there is.

Only you can do this. No one else can do it for you. You have to get in charge. There are no gurus you know. The guru is within (you).

You may also combine this seeing  with asking: “Who am I”.
Any answer you get, you dismiss. And you see that “I am not that which I can see or think about”: I am the see:er prior to that.
Then you may see, that you are nothing. And you are also ALL that you can see. You are all that. You are IT.
This is it – and you are not separated from it, so you are it.
This is God within (and in front of you)This is all that can happen. Nothing else. But there is no limit to how wonderful this seeing is.
And you will understand that you understand all there is. You will get knowledge of everyting you ever questioned.

I forgot to forget that I was  – and wasn’t – and not wasn’t.

So I became. and wasn’t until I disappeared and became.

I saw nothing through the mist between Now, but you saw your self, and followed You with stoic trust, to Is as in Life which is Good. Between motion which is all we know, but all except everything.

 

How to be free – an answer to Ajay

“Me”:

Tell Me why you want this. (to bee free, liberated, enlightened)

Ajay:

2 reasons if i am honest with myself :

1) I guess would be related to insecurity – mainly financial. Not that I am not secure at the moment, but would it remain forever ? That fear is there. And does enlightenment give this security ?. “NO” – from what I have understood so far. But if “liberation”/ Enlightenment gives you the Right prespective, removes the FEAR, then why cling to “one insecurity” or the “other” and thus get caught in this circle of insecurities ( DEATH being another!) – why not live FREELY and be happy in whatever circumstances.
This reason I have mentioned, because I don’t know if I were to be gauranteed a financial security would I still be after “liberation”. I don’t know. But I do know that I am fairly secure at the moment (house,parents,kids,money etc) everything is going fine, and yet there is a feeling of something missing….

2) that all the non-duality stuff I have been reading ( for about a decade now),for example the one written by you(or an apparant you), it seems so TRUE to me – and that too without any logic. It just seems to be right. But then doesn’t matter how much you read or how much you meditate, ultimately “ones own TRUTH” is alone that would “liberate one” and that can only come when THAT TRUTH dawns on the so called individual.
Intellactually i seem to know the answers for most of the questions but again as mentioned it doesn’t help and it is better to ‘Shut up’ than to preach somebody your theory(which only seems TRUE to you without the Actual Experience to back it up).
So What do I have to validate the things people (like you) have been trying hard to drill home the point. Will it always remain a theory to people (like me), it is not possible for THAT GRACE to fall upon me as well …..

 

 

“Me”:

 

An additional question. How desperate are you?
Do yo want to add confidece to your self, or do you want to loose your pain at any cost? To the cost of loosing your self? Please answer this here and now.

Ajay:

I TRUELY want IT …whatever we mean by “IT” and don’t mind at all if the DROP is to loose its identity and be ONE with the OCEAN.
How Desperate ? I don’t know, I have my fears no doubt. But at the same time this ‘i’ is prepared to be ‘zero’. As i mentioned, being fairly secure ‘materially’ I might not be as Desperate as you were (unfortunately), but then I am prepared to just finish off ‘this’ identity. Atleast this is what intellectual understanding has given me.

As for confidence, I am fairly confident and ( if this may not sound egoistic), it seems I do happen to radiate Laughter,confidence and joy in whichever company placed. But deep down I want to know ‘This Mystery’ be a part of it – knowingly.

If I want to loose my pain at any cost ? well,honestly, the regular pain/fears associated with ‘Samsara’, I take it in my stride and change my outlook towards them. Not that they don’t hurt, but by changing my attitude towards these the pain is felt less or for less period.So just wanted to highlight that I am not in “that pain” at the moment, BUT I DON’T WANT to be IN PAIN in order to TURN TOWARDS HER/Intelligence/Energy/GOD whatever. I WANT HER before ‘THE PAIN” pushes me to SEEK HER.
I MISS HER AND FEEL INCOMPLETE !!

To the cost of Loosing myself – Absolutely yes !

“Me”:

So, no great fears or traumas then? In what Way Do you grek incomplete. And why ( do you think) haven’t you been able to drop yourself allready. What is the reoccurring hindrence?

Ajay:

Fears – yes, many of them. The chief among them financial long term security and that too for children- I myself don’t have many wants or desires. I fear that what would happen to them if I would loose job. Fear, that my parents should possess Good health till there last breath – they should not be dependent physically in this old age. Fear of loosing them.
I have no idea what is the hindrence, despite I not being too ambitious, don’t consider myself to be creative, being very satisfied with whatever nature has provided me so far and am very very grateful to HER , because I as a personality am not worth for what has been provided. I remain Grateful.
But I also want this veil of ignorance to go, just want to be One with THAT – whatever it means !
(yesterday, I read one of your posts, and I could feel the intense pain in the heart – as if it had taken away my heart. I did comment on that, but don’t remember which one it was)

“Me”:

Ok.

Here is what you tell your self through me:

Ajay… 🙂 You want this for the right reasons. It is a joy to read your wordings. There is a foundation in you that is very trustworthy.

I will begin by telling you (me) that many people interpret my written reactions as hard or unkind. I am not polite. I am not humble. I tell the truth as good as I can through words, and sometimes it hurts. Those who lies, who is not or honest or does not know but pretend, them we feel gratitude towards. I dont exist as anything else than a mirror, and have no interests at all as I know of. So I am not interested in gratitude. If you met the body whom in which this mirror resides, then you would be calm, then you would see noone with an agenda and no one wanting anything. I am quite handsome as well LOL.

So, if you feel threatened by my words, listen to that voice, and inquire what it means. Maybe it is correct. I say this to tell you now, once and for all that the responsibility is yours.

This is important.

We search for answers, for peace of mind, and think we will find it outside. That someone is going to give it to us.

You have to look inside. The intuition is a helpful tool to make decisions without using your mind. So… trust your gut. Dont put your gut feeling on a test over and over. Doing that may give you lots of experiences, just in order to let you see clearly that your gut feeling knows better than “You”.

Intuition is part of “what is”.

So…

I went for a trip today and driving across Sweden for eight hours, from east to west. Doing that I saw this:

You say you want to be complete…

That you say.

I have to tell you, you are already complete.

So, why cant yo see this?

Well, its not strange at all.

Getting enlightened is the easiest thing in the world. It is not a mystery. It is reality. Totally possible for everyone.

The place and the time to get enlightened is always here and now. So now, or now, or now… But never tomorrow.

“He who search will find” jesus said. Well If you dont find it immediately, after start searching, is because of doubt and love and fear.

You believe that it is possible to be free, but belief requires some doubt (does it not!?)

So there is doubt/belief.

This doubt/belief wants you to get enlightened tomorrow. But there is no tomorrow. Tomorrow is just a concept, an idea. Also tomorrow is always an image, and a replica of the past.

By putting our attention on a limited part of the past, we create an image in the Present, which shapes our image of tomorrow. So in the now, we create history and future. This future is always related to the past. So if you were anxious for money or not enlightend in the past – you will be it tomorrow as well.

Also, this future (which is just an image) works as an insurance. You dont have to deal with it today. The same way as trust in help works. If you need anyone for you to feel good, then you make your self vulnerable. But you are not vulnerable. Nothing can actually hurt you if you dont let it. You are hurting your self. But ego… ego can not live without fear…. so ego wants you to be afraid. If you feel safe, ego will try to make you scared.

This sounds like a fairy tail, I know, but you will soon see this for your self. The ego is an entity. It is like artificial intelligence, and it has taken your true self hostage. (wow, I know it sounds… too extreme, but that is the case)

Do this for me: ask your self this question (that will follow) and then just shut your eyes for ten seconds without reading further.

“What is the meaning of life?”

(dont read further)

When doing this, you probably dont get an answer immediately. The gap, until your mind starts making noice… this is your true consciousness. Not knowing… And it feels good 🙂

All problems and fears comes out of a false assumption. Made up by the mind.

So… the mind believes in itself and wants to find an answer to the false assumptions. These answers never lasts. They need correction. Over and over.

The truth is that the problems were never there. So, all solutions to the problems just reinforce the belief in the problems – until you loose track of the first question. That is how we start believing we exist, at an early age (my son…. I saw when it happened… he was six months)

You tell me about your fears… they are based upon illusions.

Thsi may sound hard, and I dont want you to accept it. You should inquire by yourself, but this is how it is:

You are afraid of financial problems. That will affect your children and parents in a negative way you say.

But, those who have ears better listen, as jesus said 🙂 … but… You dont know that.

You dont know it will affect your children or parents in a negative way. We know nothing about what will come.

Are you sure about this conclusions of yours? If not… then they are just mental images made up by your mind (that is not really you).

If I have a mortal decease, which I do, can you be sure I will die before you? No… You may get run over by a car tomorrow. So, why should you pity me? Only if you have a mental image of yourself living on for ever, or until the median age of 80, then you will pity me.

This is insane and have nothing to do with “what is”.

Our children is not ours. They will not love us for ever. Not in the same way. Or may not. And that is also ok. They dont have to. Everything passes. That is for certain. That is all we ever know. Nothing lasts.

So… when we know that, we truly appreciate the moment. Every moment.

Death is not a few steps away. It is like rain on our skin, it is closer than that.

But since we are actually one with everything, that is nothing to fear. It is reality.

What is fear? Fear is based upon fear of LOSS.

Without fear of loss we will never be afraid.

I you were about to diem MAYBE you would fear loosing your body, the time you invested in your life in form of studies and hard work. It has to pay off, we may think.

But we are not the body. Cut of a finger and you will see. YOU are still there.

If I never get to see my son again, if I loose custody for ever. Is this a bad thing? Who knows? I may e the best thing for him. We assume things, but never know.

If I loose ny home and my job also?

Well. Lots of people live in poverty. They may be happier and more sane than me. It is not about wealth.

It is about being alive. About seeing “what is”.

And appreciating it.

Fear makes us project into the future (or the past) and we are never really hear.

“Dont be afraid” jesus said.

I couldnt agree moore.

🙂

So. Ajay.

Here is my advice for today to you.

Take a walk.

When you feel your feet meeting the ground… then fully realise that this ground is the actual universe. Feel it.

You are walking on the universe.

It may be the center. I may be in the periphery. There is no beginning and no end so that is not important,

Accept that you dont really know anything.

Accept that you cant change anything.

See that your agenda is just one of countless agendas. Not the absolute. The absolute begins with your sight, of what is.

This is all we can ever do.

We can know, in a way… know or see… know-see… that all we can know is this.

We can see – that which is. Wihout concept, judgement or words attached to it.

You are walking on it. And all you see is part of it.

Actually, everyone you see, is the universe, experiencing itself (you in this case) through the eyes of another living thing.

There is no end to the beauty of this.

Also ask yourself, who percieves the one inside you that sees this.

That – is God.

If you see this –  dont doubt it. It can only happen Now, and it is soo easy.

Then just do this: dont believe your next thought. Forever… As a life long meditation, or at least for one day, or one hour. 🙂 Dont – believe – your next – thought. Any thought. No thought, good or bad.

I am sorry if this got very long. And I am aware of the shortcomings of my language skills since my native thounge is Swedish.

I want to thank you for having the faith and courage to ask for my advice. But – and this is not a play with words – you are doing the talking, through me.

Write back and tell me in a week or so how you are doing.

Love you.

(!)
