You are not existing in relationship to what arises at all. The drama is unnecessary. Narcissus begins where there is A frustration of creativity. Where there is no narcissus There is simply unqualified creativity and presence. Narcissus is the reduction of the world To the form of his own separate person. Seeking is the drama of narcissus. He waits outside the heart. There is no salvation for narcissus. Salvation is reality, Which has nothing to do with narcissus. There is only reality, which is not narcissus. Understanding is the absence of narcissus. Where there is understanding, narcissus does not arise. Where there is the absence of narcissus, There is only reality. Narcissus is dead. _____________________________________ Even the structure of the atom has been found by the mind. Therefore the mind is subtler than the atom.

It's not that you are trying to understand and really can't. It's just that you are fundamentally, presently committed to that thing That understanding would make impossible. If you could truly grasp what it is your life is making out of you, you would be terrified by that, Not by God and the universe and the nature of things. You would be terrified by your own tendencies. Suffering is the primary fact for individual life. _____________________________________ Even the structure of the atom has been found by the mind.

We "get along" with one another, And just don't deal with anything fundamental. So we don't live as if there were God. But we don't really live as if there were not God either. Truly, human existence has not appeared in the world as yet. The cult of narcissus, The cult of this world, Is all about The suppression of ecstasy, The suppression of happiness. _____________________________________ Even the structure of the atom has been found by the mind.

It is taboo to be already happy. You must seek happiness. It is all right to seek God. But to realize God while alive is the absolute taboo. To start talking about God, to think God, to act God, to make the divine The present condition of the world, to life that divine power, to live that light, to be full, that is unacceptable. That is not permitted. _____________________________________ Even the structure of the atom has been found by the mind. Therefore the mind is subtler than the atom.

Stu (OP) User ID: 34053111 United States 04/29/2013 03:04 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The highest and only true realization is truth itself, the very self or reality. To enjoy truth is simply to be awake. What is required to wake up? What can you do within the dream to wake up? Nothing. There is only the waking itself. It is like a man discovering that he has been pinching himself. His pain was always his own event, the theatre of his own action. When he finally sees, it's a simple matter. He no longer needs to go through any sort of complicated affair to get free of pain. He doesn't have to go through any kind of therapy, special diet, yoga, or mantra in order to be free. All he has to do is take his hand away. _____________________________________ Even the structure of the atom has been found by the mind. Therefore the mind is subtler than the atom.

Stu (OP) User ID: 34053111 United States 04/29/2013 03:18 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | To know what arises in truth isI simply to be in relationship to what arises. Relationship is enjoyed under all circumstances, all conditions, with all beings, in all environments. It is always simply that basic enjoyment, that unobstructed, spontaneous, moment to moment existence as relationship. It is what is called "love." It is simply the force of the heart, the real, which is unobstructed, unqualified existence. To love requires a great transformation. Without the realization of the heart, there is no true humanity, and no love. Love is living without obstruction, without contraction. Without the demand for attention, without creating your perimeter. That doesn't come about by doing all kinds of things to yourself. It is a grace. Loving is also pleasurable. There is no doubt about it. Ecstasy is selflessness. Happiness is already sacrifice. _____________________________________ Even the structure of the atom has been found by the mind.

God is your real condition. This is the moment of God. God is the real And may not be isolated, Identified in any direction- Outside or inside, Here or there, Up or down. The divine is of a radical nature Realized only in divine communion, Realized as that condition. The divine is not apart And above and elsewhere, To be attained at another time In the midst of some condition or another That you may or may not imagine. That is not the truth. The truth is the present one, The absolute divine That may not be attained, That may not be ascended to, That does not even descend upon you, But which is perfectly and already Your present condition. The divine is unmanifest, The divine does not appear as a piece. The divine is absolute, entire, All-pervasive, perfect, Not to be found in some place, Some thing, some archetype, Some moment, some experience, Some state. The divine is present, Not above the world, not to be found, Not elsewhere, not grasped, but fallen into, Always already existing, of which all things Are the manifestation. Not the divine who is himself manifest In some thing, but of whom all things Are the manifestation in the sense that They are all his modification. By the power of that Divine consciousness, Qualities arise, Modifications of that Arise. The divine is that From which everything arises, Of which everything is the modification, Than which there is no other, Which is only. God is eternally present And absolutely present. God is as present At this moment As he is ever Going to be. -Da Free John (if you want more, let me know) tired of the haters otherwise thats it [link to youtu.be] |
