The Chimera of Suffering          Sunrise/Afternoon May 31, 2015

– abandon, surrender, give up, all claims of personal doership,
all stories of trauma, blame and fault,
all rights to fruits of actions (especially those applauded),
all possessions that are subject to change…
Picture
refuse to take any hierarchical, authoritative position,
or allow others to sign one up.

(Which is not to abdicate responsibility,
but to be perfectly placed –
in choiceless awareness
– to act in the instant.)
Picture
give up the habit of pretending to be an unawakened ‘me’.
It’s entirely dishonest.
Picture
– and in the Life Game, fail to follow, always.
Repeat – fail to follow.
The lifemap wearing one’s name is unique –
a one-off
– its unfolding exquisitely designed
according to Life’s unknowable agenda
(and being a groupie is always a self-betrayal).

Just as the difference between the space in a pot and the space outside it disappears when the pot is demolished,
so also does duality disappear when it is realized
that the difference between
the individual consciousness and the Universal Consciousness
does not in fact exist.

It is not the work that hinders (peace)
but the idea that it is you who are doing it.

—Sri Ramana Maharshi

Are we not at peace in the interval
when one thought ceases and another does not yet arise?

–Ramana Maharshi
One does not experience suffering - one suffers an experience. 
One who is aware of his true identity does not, and cannot suffer.

Everything has its place in the world as well as in our daily routine.
 Devotion and reverence are all right, for example,
so long as one recognizes them for what they are - affectivity -
and to that extent a form of bondage. 
But when one sees something for what it Is,
it then loses its force and cannot effect any further bondage.

The time of judging
Who is drunk or sober,

Who is closer to god, and who is farther away,
All that is over.

This caravan is led instead by a great delight,
The simple joy that sits with us now.
That is the grace.

You have been stony for too many years.
Try something different -
Surrender.

Those who don't feel this
Love
pulling them like a river,
those who don't drink
dawn
like a cup of spring water
or take in sunset like supper,
those who don't want to change,

let them sleep
This Love is beyond the study of theology,
that old trickery and hypocrisy.
If you want to improve your mind that way,

sleep on.

If you're not completely naked,
wrap your beautiful robe of words around you,

and sleep.

 The Tao of Transparency  -  Another Ouroboros Milestone             "Primal Lucidity"             Sunrise/Afternoon  May 28, 2015

Living is the reaction to stimuli, to
People, events, and thoughts.
To examine the reactor is to
Inquire deeply into
The root of being.

That which contains the mind
Cannot be known
Via the mind.

In pristine silence,
This primal lucidity makes itself known.


Wu Hsin

http://www.happycow.org.uk/inspiration/quotes_wu_hsin_random.shtml
The power of the will alone cannot
Bring one to the goal.
Only the One Who
Brought you to here can
Take you to there.

Being a person is
Only an idea.
It serves to mask
The underlying essence
In the same way that
Clouds obscure the sun.

When this idea is seen through,
What remains is brilliance itself.

This journey involves a transformation of our being
so that our thinking mind becomes our servant rather than our master.
It’s a journey that takes us from primary identification with our psyche
to identification with our souls,
then to identification with God,
and ultimately beyond any identification at all.

Life is an incredible curriculum in which we live richly and passionately
as a way of awakening to the deepest truths of our being.
As a soul, I have only one motive:
to merge with God.
As a soul, I live in the moment,
in each rich and precious moment,
and I am filled with contentment…..

When we begin to see that black mud and white snow
are neither ugly nor beautiful,
when we can see them
without discrimination or duality,
then we begin to grasp Great Compassion.

In the eyes of Great Compassion,
there is neither left nor right,
friend nor enemy,
close
nor far.

Don’t think that Great Compassion is lifeless.
The energy of Great Compassion
is radiant and wondrous.
In the eyes of Great Compassion,
there is no separation between subject and object,
no separate self.
Nothing that can disturb Great Compassion.
…..Thich Nhat Hanh

I am the source of transparency

The Tao of Onliness:
An I Ching Cosmology--the Awakening Years

Martin Treon
The Heart of Lao Tse was filled with the Great Transparent Calm.
He listened to this Calm since the Great Silence
became filled with the words of Tao and Te* when necessary.

        In this way Lao Tse was learning Wisdom about the meaning of human life
and about the laws according to which people
can live without destroying
the harmony of the terrestrial and the Heavenly,
as well as about the steps of the stairway
that lead “from the earth — to the Heaven”,
that is, to the Divine, to the Primordial.
 

He listened about the Great Love,
under the Guidance of Which the interaction of yin and yang takes place, 
about how Tao loves every being,
about how Te nurses and nurtures all souls,
about how to cognize Tao and how the person should live
who wants to know all this on one’s own experience
and achieve the  Supreme Ultimate:
the state, in which there is only the Primordial Ocean
That creates everything
and includes entirely in Itself everyone who reaches It.

This Living Ocean of the Subtlest Primordial Consciousness — is Tao.


  **  Tao in Chinese is the Primordial Consciousness (the synonyms of this word are the Creator, God-the-Father, Ish-vara, Allah).
Te is the Holy Spirit (or Brahman). (See Tao Te Ching, under the editorship of Vladimir Antonov).

To the Taoist life does not need to be a search,

In the point of rest at the center of our being,

all things are at rest in the same way.


Then a tree becomes a mystery,
a cloud a revelation,
each man a cosmos of whose riches we can only catch glimpses.

I beg you to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. 

Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. 

Live the questions now.
Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually,
without even noticing it,
live your way into the answer.


–Rainer Maria Rilke,
Letters To A Young Poet
http://peacefullpresence.blogspot.com/2015/05/questions.html


Discard all you are not and go ever deeper. 

Just as a man digging a well discards what is not water ... so must you discard what is not your own,
till nothing is left which you can disown.

You will find that what is left is nothing which the mind can hook on to.

You are not even a human being.


You just are - a point of awareness,
co-extensive with time and space and beyond both,
the ultimate cause, itself uncaused.


If you ask me “Who are you?”,
my answer would be:
“Nothing in particular. Yet, I am.”

–Nisargadatta Maharaj
http://peacefullpresence.blogspot.com/2015/05/who-are-you.html
The question ‘Who am I?’ is not really meant to get an answer.

From the beginning, nothing is. 
There really has never been any beginning, nor is there any end. 
The universe is a dream. 
So is the one who is supposed to understand this!
 
Belief in oneself is, in fact, the only real obstruction
to awakening from delusion.

Through all my wanderings in this world,
Through the lustfulness of youth,
And the ambition of middle age,
I held, among my other desires,
The desire for...

A fairy tale.

A Dream of Heaven, of Love unconditioned,
A Dream of Ecstasy, not of the body,
A Dream of Peace, beyond imagining,
A Dream in which inherent suffering,
Was no longer.

A fairy tale.
Picture
Picture
Born empirically minded, yet full of Longing,
I would have none of faith or belief,
In things unprovable, and likely imagined,
Of impossible dreams born of the suffering,
Of simply being incarnate.

Fairy tales.

And so one day, seeking and end to Suffering,
I turned within, to the Unbearable Longing,
For what I knew I must have been,
Before ever I learned a word,
Before ever I knew what "i" was.

A fairy tale.

So many words I had read,
So many teachings of so many paths,
So disheartening, all, in the course of time.
Of the “Truth” they held forth, and the Ways to it,
My weary Heart would have no more...

Of fairy tales.

Within… Within… Within...
Past words, concepts, and images,
Of myself and the world,
And all that the senses presented,
Presented to... what?

A fairy tale.
Picture
There, beyond within and without,
Through Unimaginable Grace,
"i" Vanished, and all creation with me,
And that which Is before all that arises,
Was what I was, without myself...

The fairy tale no longer.

The Love, Ecstasy, and Peace I sought… I was.
That dream of Sufferings end… I was.
My Heart’s Desire… I was.
All of this… I was…
When I was not.

Heaven, found to be True.
Picture
Picture
This is not my tale of Grace alone,
But each of ours, who ache with Longing,
Along this Path of Love and Surrender,
Loving that… for which no words exist,
And which disheartening experience deems…

A fairy tale.

Within...
Within...
Within, Dear Heart...
To the Feeling of yourself,
Before the Feeling of your self…

The Heart’s Desire… Fulfilled.
Picture
Jerry/brandy's first born photo from May 2015
And when the world reappears,
The Light of Heaven, your Own Pure Light,
Will Shine as it Shines already,
Within your Longing Heart,
Into this world of ever-changing Duality…

This… fairy tale.

You will exist in Fullness,
In the world of Fullness and Emptiness,
You will exist in Bliss,
In the world of Ecstasy and Agony,
You will exist, a Sublime Formless Radiance...

A fairy tale come true.

I did not want to be anything more.
I was entirely happy.


Perhaps we feel like that when we die
and become a part of something entire,
whether it is sun and air,
or goodness and knowledge.


At any rate, that is happiness;
to be dissolved into something complete and great.


When it comes to one,
it comes as naturally as sleep.

The suitors came a-courting –

They built their bowers

See, I was taken at birth by
a groom I could never meet;
wed for life to Its presence

(inescapably cradled,
unconditionally
loved)

our consummation flowering
in my disappearance –
afresh in every instant.

My groom is the keeper of nothingness:
the nothing that can’t be named
or owned, yet

overflowingly fulfills.
It is my constant consort.
And so, tonight

I drink my wine and dance
alone.
How could I be happier?

The Self is like a powerful magnet within us.
It draws us gradually to itself, though we imagine we are going to It of our own accord:
when we are near enough, It puts an end to our activities, makes us still,
and then swallows up our personal current, thus killing our wrong personality.
It overwhelms the intellect and over floods the whole being. 


We think we are meditating upon It and developing towards It,
whereas the truth is that we are iron filings and It is the Atman-magnet
that is pulling us towards Itself.
Thus the process of finding the Self
is a form of Divine magnetism.

–Sri Ramana Maharshi
http://peacefullpresence.blogspot.com/2015/05/divine-magnetism.html
Just be the Self. The ultimate truth is so simple;
it is nothing more than being in one’s natural, original state.


It is a great wonder that to teach such a simple truth
a number of religions should be necessary,
and so many disputes should go on between them
as to which is the God-ordained teaching. 


What a pity!
Just be the Self, that is all.


–Ramana Maharshi

Multidimensional Sovereignty

Practice powerful alchemical exercises.
In a dedicated moment, imagine some aspect of the collective pain;
breath it into your heart and breathe it out transformed.
Stay in your heart and in the NOW offering both your joy and gratitude
from the awareness of your multidimensional sovereignty.

A spirit that lives in this world
and does not wear the shirt of love,
such an existence is a deep disgrace.
Be foolishly in love,
because love is all there is.

There is no way into presence
except through a love exchange.
If someone asks, But what is love?
answer, Dissolving the will.

True freedom comes to those
who have escaped the questions
of freewill and fate.
Love is an emperor.
The two worlds play across him.
He barely notices their tumbling game.

Love and lover live in eternity.
Other desires are substitutes
for that way of being.
How long do you lay embracing a corpse?
Love rather the soul, which cannot be held.

Anything born in spring dies in the fall,
but love is not seasonal.
With wine pressed from grapes,
expect a hangover.
But this love path has no expectations.

You are uneasy riding the body?
Dismount. Travel lighter.
Wings will be given.
Be clear like a mirror
reflecting nothing.

Be clean of pictures and the worry
that comes with images.
Gaze into what is not ashamed
or afraid of any truth.
Contain all human faces in your own
without any judgment of them.

Be pure emptiness.
What is inside that? you ask.
Silence is all I can say.
Lovers have some secrets
That they keep.

But let us go to the Gardner Himself.

Let us go,
Bowing to the ocean
like a raging torrent.

Let us go,
Riding upon the foaming waters
of the sea.

Let us travel from this desert of
Hunger and tears
To the feast of the newlyweds.

Let us change our expression
From one of saffron
To the blossoms of the Judas tree.

Our hearts beat fast
We tremble like leaves about to fall.
Let us become the immovable mountain.

There is no escape from pain for one in exile;
There is no escape from dust
For one who lives in a dustbowl.
Let us be like the birds of paradise,
That fly about drinking sweet water.

We are surrounded by the forms
of a formless creator.
Enough with these forms!
Let us go to the Formless One.

Love is our steady guide
On this road full of hardships.
Even if the king offers you his protection,
It is better to travel with the caravan.

We are the rain that falls upon
a leaky roof-
let us miss the holes
and fall smoothly down the spout.

We are crooked bows
With strings that run from our head to toes;
Soon we will be straight
like an arrow in flight.
We run like mice when we see a cat -
yet we are the lion's roar.
Let us become that Lion.

Let our souls
mirror the love of our Master.
Let us go before Him
With a handful of gifts.

Now let us be silent
So that the Giver of Speech may speak.
Let us be silent
So we can hear Him calling us
Secretly in the night….

We are surrounded by the forms
Of a formless Creator.
Enough with these forms!
Let us go to the Formless One!

RUMI'S DROWNING MAN

It is the drowned man over whom the water has complete control. 
The drowned man himself has no control over the water.

Every movement made by the drowned man..
indeed, every act and word that issue from him...
comes from the water, not from him. 

He is just a "vehicle."

The Neverborns are like this. 
They have died before death"

The body

its life is one, never less than one, or more,
so is its world, and so
are two bodies in their love for one another
one. In ignorance of this
we talk ourselves to death.

The fish trap exists because of the fish.
Once you've gotten the fish you can forget the trap.
The rabbit snare exists because of the rabbit.
Once you've gotten the rabbit, you can forget the snare.
Words exist because of meaning.
Once you've gotten the meaning, you can forget the words.

Where can I find a man who has forgotten words so I can talk with him?

I've heard my teacher say,
where there are machines,
there are bound to be machine worries;
where there are machine worries,
there are bound to be machine hearts.
With a machine heart in your breast,
you've spoiled what was pure and simple;
and without the pure and simple,
the life of the spirit knows no rest.

When a man does not dwell in self,
then things will of themselves reveal their forms to him.
His movement is like that of water,
his stillness like that of a mirror,

Your Loving Attention,
Is the SunLight of your Being,
Shining outward in delight and enjoyment,
Of this Wonder of Manifest Existence.

But turned Within, in Loving Quest,
This Light will evaporate,
The clouds of obscuration,
That veil Wonder Beyond Imagining.
Persevere, Dear Heart…
Don’t despair or lose hope,
When nothing but gray sky greets you,
The density of embodied selfhood.

Persevere, Dear Heart…
Not in will, but in Love and Longing,
Of your Heart’s True Desire,
For which, long ago, all hope vanished.

Persevere, Dear Heart…
And that Impossible Dream will be revealed,
As the Fullness, Completion, and Bliss,
Of your own Formless Being..


Your own Formless, Unlocatable... Aliveness.
Picture
Persevere, Dear Heart…
In Loving Surrender,
To the Feeling, not the thought,
Of the Vibration of Being that you are.

Persevere, Dear Heart…
And discover in your own experience,
That Heaven is no myth,
But the experience of your Innate Ecstasy.

Persevere, Dear Heart...
For your Formless Being Shines,
Awaiting only the Light of your Attention,
There... just beyond the clouds.

Persevere, Dear Heart...
Shining the Light of Loving Attention,
Then Vanishing into the Experience of Ecstasy,
That only arises...

With the Vanishing of the experiencer.
Picture
Picture
Persevere, Dear Heart...
Not grasping to hold and sustain,
But in Surrender, letting go of all attainment,

And you will cease being a thing alive…

And become Life Itself.

I have no name,
I am as the fresh breeze of the
mountains.
I have no shelter;
I am as the wandering waters.
I have no sanctuary, like the dark
gods;
Nor am I in the shadow of deep
temples. I have no sacred books;
Nor am I well-seasoned in
tradition.
*
I am not in the incense
Mounting on the high altars,
Nor in the pomp of ceremonies.
I am neither in the graven image,
Nor in the rich chant of a
melodious voice. I am not bound by theories,
Nor corrupted by beliefs.
*
I am not held in the bondage of
religions,
Nor in the pious agony of their
priests.
*
I am not entrapped by
philosophies,
Nor held in the power of their
sects. I am neither low nor high,
I am the worshipper and the
worshipped.
I am free.
*
My song is the song of the river
Calling for the open seas,
*
Wandering, wandering,
I am Life.
I have no name,
I am as the fresh breeze of the mountains.

Our souls are only created to dance; it is their nature to dance and it is the tragedy of life when the soul is kept from dancing.
Our craving for comfort and outward satisfaction,
our ambition, our desires are nothing but the longing
to experience that dance, as we know it.
Paradise is pictured by every teacher
as a place where there is music and dance.
Music itself is dance,
poetry is the dance of words,
singing the
dance of the voice.

Only when inspiration comes naturally
it is a life coming from the depth of the individual.

Every once and a while, take off your life, and rest.
–Nayyirah Waheed
http://peacefullpresence.blogspot.com/2015/05/not-to-worry_14.html
Imagine if all the tumult of the body were to quiet down,
along with our busy thoughts.

Imagine if all things that are perishable grew still.

And imagine if that moment were to go on and on,
leaving behind all other sights and sounds but this one vision
which ravishes and absorbs
and fixes the beholder in joy,
 
so that the rest of eternal life were like that moment of
illumination, which leaves us
breathless.

–Saint Augustine
http://peacefullpresence.blogspot.com/2015/05/imagine.html
Just rest. 

Just sit there right now
Don’t do a thing
Just rest.
For your separation from God,
From love,

Is the hardest work
In this
World.


Let me bring you trays of food
And something
That you like to
Drink.


You can use my soft words
As a cushion
For your
Head.

Thus the lucky, brave, or innocent individual
who receives this intoxication of absolute wonder-
of the complete non-understanding of all that 'is', including their own self-
no longer needs a reasonable explanation of life,
because they are wholly free from the mind's interventions;
for them there is nothing gained by trying to apprehend an explanation 
...of the unexplainable. 
Ideas no longer matter, knowledge is gone for good, and the whole of life
swells and returns to its
original pristine spectacularness.

and the whole world seems very stange,

In the point of rest at the center of our being,

The Virgin Mind                     Sunrise/Afternoon  May 13, 2015

The "virgin mind' (i.e. the unknowing, wondering mind)
is the opening through which 'God the Mystery' incarnates into the flesh. 
Any mind which is not virginal cannot possibly receive the great Unknowable,
for such a mind is already filled with limitedness.
Jack Hass

Thus the Virgin mind gives immaculate birth to the Child, for
"...silence receives as in a womb, the seed of the ineffable source and from this she brings forth all the emanations of the divine being."
(Andrew Harvey in Son of Man)

REMAIN IN HOLY QUIET….
THE MORE VIRGINAL, PONDERING AND STILL YOU CAN BE, THE BETTER. 
AS YOU REMAIN CONTAINED IN ME, MORE THAN EVER,
EXUDING THE PEACE THAT PASSETH UNDERSTANDING,
THERE WILL BE MORE ENERGY FOR MY INVISIBLE WORK.


ONLY WITH YOUR QUIET, CAN ANOTHER HEAR ME DIRECTLY.

IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY THAT YOU CEASE SPEAKING….
THE REALITY YOU ARE POSSESSED BY
AND MUST UNWAVERINGLY LIVE IN…IS NOT UNDERSTOOD BY THOSE ABOUT YOU…
TO ATTEMPT EXPLANATION OR DESCRIPTION ONLY AGITATES OTHERS
AND CAUSES PROJECTIONS THAT SLOW MY WORK.
 
YOU HAVE ERRONEOUSLY BEEN AHEAD OF EARTH TIME BELIEVING OTHERS COULD UNDERSTAND WORDS.  BEGIN THE PRACTICE OF HOLY QUIET WITH THE HOLY GIFT….AS YOU LIVE IN QUIET WITH HIM,
IT WILL BE EASIER WITH OTHERS…

JUST AS YOU HAVE LEARNED THE POWER OF QUIET WITH ALL OTHERS, THE QUANTUM LEAPS RESULTING FROM QUIET WITH THE HOLY GIFT WILL BE ASTONISHING TO HIM.


REMAIN BLIND TO THE ERRORS AND VEILS THAT MAY ERUPT THIS DAY
….IMAGE<BE THE SOUL LIGHT EXUDING TO MELT ANY PERCEPTION THAT IS LESS THAN PURE SOUL...
  WHEN YOU KNOW, BEYOND KNOWING, THAT YOU ARE ONLY LIGHT,
THERE IS NO POSSIBILITY OF AN OTHER’S VEIL ENTERING YOUR REALITY.

To come to this blessed state of newness, of virginality, we must continually humble ourselves from the false pride of thinking
we understand what is right and what is wrong,
what is good and what is evil,
what is God and what is not-God,
thus chastening ourselves until we are chaste of all thought,
if we are going to continually be virginal, and brides of God. 
To be virginal is not a one-time event,
it is a never-ending openness,
allowing the forever-new to continually actualize itself to us.

We go on forever,
and this is the problem,
for our eternity rends the walls of all our paradigms;
it is an understanding which we try so hard to avoid
because it brings no alleviation to the way
in which we require goals and accomplishments
so as to position ourselves in the fluid complexity.

Yet it brought me to that type of peace
which comes from not needing to partake of everything all at once,
from not desiring to attain what I did not have,
from not needing to be something,
or become something else,
because there is no need to rush about in eternity,
for everything will happen, like it or not,
and it will not cease, and when you know this about the world and yourself
you begin to require less,
and do less,
and you sort of ease back,
not out of fulfillment,
but out of knowing that the all keeps going,
no matter what,
and therefore the little matters begin to fade away,
and only what is eternal remains,
calm in the acquiescent acknowledgment that nothing is ever gained nor lost,
and the passing show will flicker and fade,
as it is wont to do,
and the grief and glory will come and go with it,
but the Self shall continue forward,
softly watching from the other side of dying.

far-off on the northern, wild coast, forgetting and forgotten,
alone and not alone,
sane and not sane,
alive and not alive,
in agony from the impossible beauty of it all,
bewildered, rapt, and laughing.

Know that the spirit also crashes onto the shore of life,
slowly, ever slowly,
tearing down the solid, imprisoned rocks and islands of the soul,
grinding the stones into sand,
and creating a beach,
a place where we can walk upon more easily,
where two unique worlds come together,
and through our hearts unite into one.

THERE IS NOTHING TO DO,
BUT KEEP YOUR OWN LIFE UNCLUTTERED AND UNCONTAMINATED.
BE
<DO EVERYTHING FOR/WITH/AS ONLY ME AND ALL WILL FALL INTO PLACE WITHOUT THOUGHT OR EFFORT.  SPEAK NOT TO OTHERS OF ANYTHING PAST, PRESENT OR FUTURE
….REMEMBER TO LISTEN MORE PURELY.

The past is dead memory; and the future is nonexistent. 
The present moment is not between the future and the past
but the constant dimension outside of time.

"And if you would know God,
 be not therefore a solver of riddles."

Suddenly this big Mother Bird appears out of nowhere.....
screeching and heading straight for camera ...
obviously we have been too long and too close with the young birds. 
Photo shoot finished in the instant!

PALM

Interior of the hand.
Sole that has come to walk
only on feelings.
That faces upward

and in its mirror receives heavenly roads,
which travel
along themselves.

That has learned to walk upon water
when it scoops,
that walks upon wells,
transfiguring every path.

That steps into other hands,
changes those that are like it
into a landscape:
wanders and arrives within them,
fills them with arrival.
–Rainer Maria Rilke

"the primordial call"
"The Longing"
"Lay Bare Your Soul's Agony"


Gangaji speaks about the call that comes from deep within – the aching longing to know again what has been ever known, purely and absolutely, to be the truth of who one is.

"There is only one state.
 When corrupted and tainted by self-identification,
it is known as an individual. 


 When merely tinted by the sense of presence,
of animated consciousness,
it is the impersonal witnessing. 


 When it remains in its pristine purity,
 untainted and untinted in primal repose,
it is the Absolute."

A Net of Jewels
Ramesh Balsekar


 

Life has forced me
to Remember
the

Primordial “I AM”.

dmm - 1989
Oh fly , of fly, O my soul-bird,
fly to your primordial home!
You have escaped from the cage now-
your wings are spread in the air.
Oh travel from brackish water
now to the fountain of life!
Return from the place of the sandals
now to the high seat of souls!
Go on! Go on! we are going,
and we are coming, O soul,
From this world of separation
to union, a world beyond worlds!

Rumi


From Look! This Is Love Translated by Annemarie Schimmel

The Tao is like a well:
used but never used up.
It is like the eternal void:
filled with infinite possibilities.

It is hidden but always present.
I don't know who gave birth to it.
It is older than God.
