I am told, people interpret what I share is, as if something has to be
done. What I am attempting to share is just the opposite – nothing can be ‘done.’
It is the doing that is in the way of being.
Shared this before. When someone wakes up, and feels to share their
experience, they get a surprise. What seems so simple to the one waking
up, seems impossible to share. “The truth cannot be said…”
Seems we cannot change ourselves – because the very part of us that
decides to change, is the part that needs changing.
The mind cannot see itself.
I have experimented every way I know, and it has come to –
not ‘doing’ – anything.
We have had the same advice in many forms:
“Unconditional Awareness.”
“Everyone seems so certain, and I walk as though upon thin ice”
“Take no thought of the morrow, let the morrow take thought of itself.”
“Unless you leave your father and mother…”
“It is easier for a Camel to pass through the eye of a needle…”
“Every second is the first second of your life.”
Everyone who awakens has their unique way – of saying the same thing:
Be Here Now.
It is so simple – so simple that the mind does not get it.
Krishna Murti used ‘unconditional awareness.’
Let’s see if we can explain that more clearly.
It means, nothing is more important than being unconditionally aware of
that very moment. Whatever the situation, awareness is the priority – not
the situation.
Need to slow down. Right down. Be aware of every action, movement,
communication, thought – plus everything going on around.
Need to expand the field of awareness – to include – everything.
Simple – yet, to our conditioned mind, almost impossible.
One Zen Master said in the history of mankind, only about one thousand had
awoken. I know a couple more. Let’s make it lots.
Every moment unconditional awareness. Here, Now.
Nothing more important that this very moment – this one – now.
Example: The doctor is telling you – you have a disease, and you only have
a few weeks to live. Watch. Watch the mind, the emotions, the body.
Be there. Simple.
More fun example: When you have an orgasm – have it, and, witness it.
May interfere with your sex fun for a while, but then – the unimaginable!
