The Movie Of Time and Space
The hidden belief of being a separate self shows up in the mind and body in the form of fearful misidentification, feeling separate and thoughts of lack and personal desire that indicate separateness.
Keep It Simple
Why wouldn't a mind and body awaken and be at peace because we are knowingly at one with all existence? In this experience of Oneness, the boundaries between our mental and sensorial existence and the world disappear.
De-Throning The False King
There are no practices to be at one with and experience the aware reality we are, only to open the mind that blocks this understanding. Sometimes called true self (Advaita Vedanta-like) or no self (Zen-like) or heart (Sufi-like), or God's Being (Christian Mystic-like), depending on tradition. The important thing is that the experience is the same.
No Coincidence
What the most important social policy beyond all else that is recommended by spiritual leaders the world over throughout time? The universal number 1 priority and conclusion is world peace and all this entails. Nearly all spiritual leaders have made public pronouncements on this. So what is wise? PEACE! Always peace.
There Is Such A Thing As Society
Many spiritual teachers emphasise that society begins with individual behaviour and that this inner revolution needs to be the focus. On an experiential level, the world is considered a school. It's not about making the world perfect, and facing challenges is something that, as consciousness, we have created for our mind and body to get through somehow, as they are essential vehicles for us to achieve strength and express ourselves like forging iron rids it of impurities. These challenges help us become even stronger examples to our society of the life-affirming qualities of consciousness.
Aware Being
If we examine our experience at this moment, we will find that phenomena appear and disappear, but there is always something that never appears or disappears. This is the reality of all temporary phenomena that is the always present elusive something, not nothing. It is the essence of everything; unlike the appearances of the mind that come and go, it never does.
The Metaphorical Pattern Matching Mind
In studying Human Givens psychotherapy, which was revelatory in many respects, I learned the full honorific title for the mind. "The Metaphorical Pattern Matching Mind ". We have a mind that learns through the recognition of patterns.
Relating To Oneness
A successful relationship can only be based on loving others for who they are, not what we want them to be. The consciousness we are is a free-flowing creative force.
Hearing The Voice Of Love
When we talk with an apparent other, we are talking with ourself. Realising this, we can be conscious of this truth and instantly realise a profound rapport.
The Three Voices
In society, we have mainly have physical adults who only know the language of want and should. In other words, they are adults in body only. The best they can do is organise a society around these two voices of want and should because that is all they know. The result is that they create a society where their unregulated desires are achieved by indoctrinating everyone else with the voice of should to such a degree that they will obey this inner voice automatically.
Stepping Stones Of Oneness
I am the sensation of fear, and I want to completely disassociate from the experience of physical sensations and feel totally ungrounded.
Facing Fear
Most of us have accumulated protective layers of behaviours that shield our fear rather than face it because we don't know how to face it.
Be Like The Sun
Our separateness is nothing but a hypnotic trance, which is a waking dream. When dreaming, we may be aware that we are dreaming. When our minds awake, they create the dream of a world, and we may forget it is also a dream of sorts.
Acting As Love
The knowing that we exist is an instantaneous, direct knowing of the reality of our being. That I am is known for certain. If anyone were to doubt they exist, we could ask them, who is doubting? The only answer possible is "I do", which means that they must be aware of the experience of doubt, and they must be the one who transcends this experience to be aware of it. The subjective personal pronoun "I" always points to this transcendent reality that is aware of its existence.
