All Silence is the Silence of No-Self

All our experiences of silence are nothing more,
yet nothing less,
than the silence of no-self –
a mysterious foretaste
of what is yet to be.

It means the waters of self are gradually
being wrung out from the structure of being;
that the mechanism of self-consciousness
is coming to an end in a way
we may never understand.

And above all, it means that without a self
we are free to come upon
that which lies beyond any notion
or experience of silence.

Remember: no-self is not God;
rather, it is the gap between self and God,
and the gateway to what is
not only beyond the self,
but beyond no-self as well.

What environment do you thrive in?
Plants need different conditions to thrive in
and when you try to grow it in a different environment -
it can't thrive.

It's not about preferences,
or about "accepting life as it is" -
but knowing what you need for your spirit to thrive.

It is about the recognition of what it truly is
that lives, thinks, sees and breathes
through and as you...
The Essence of your Being
that appears as you.

Thrive - Leo Hartong

how to know love

When you regain a sense of your life
as a journey of discovery,
you return to rhythm with yourself.

When you take the time to travel with reverence,
a richer life unfolds before you.

Moments of beauty begin to braid your days.

When your mind becomes
more acquainted with reverence,
the light, grace and elegance of beauty
find you more frequently.

When the destination becomes gracious,
the journey becomes an adventure of beauty.

AFTERNOON

that dull spiky ache

Thomas Merton wrote,
“there is always a temptation
to diddle around in the contemplative life,
making itsy-bitsy statues.”

There is always an enormous temptation
in all of life to diddle around
making itsy-bitsy friends and meals
and journeys
for itsy-bitsy years on end.

It is so self-conscious, so apparently moral,
simply to step aside from the gaps
where the creeks and winds pour down,
saying,
I never merited this grace, quite rightly,
and then
to sulk along the rest of your days
on the edge of rage.

I won’t have it.
The world is wilder than that in all directions,
more dangerous and bitter,
more extravagant and bright.

We are making hay when we should be making whoopee;
we are raising tomatoes
when we should be raising Cain, or Lazarus.

Go up into the gaps.
If you can find them;
they shift and vanish too.

Stalk the gaps.
Squeak into a gap in the soil, turn,
and
unlock-more than a maple- a universe.

This is how you spend this afternoon,
and tomorrow morning,
and tomorrow afternoon.

Spend the afternoon.
You can’t take it with you.”
~Annie Dillard
https://makebelieveboutique.com/2020/07/19/32807/

Self-generated tranquility,
dependent on the arrangement of finances,
relationships, and social norms
cannot substitute for the real thing.

True tranquility is a birthright of every being.
It resides in the eternal nature of all beings.

That nature is often called the Soul.

Look there for the real deal
when the substitute fails.
William Martin
https://freedomsimplicityandjoy.wordpress.com/2020/07/18/energy-from-the-void/

Walking this path,
we experience inexhaustible energy.
From what appears an empty void,
we find the bounty of life.
Our edginess, tension,
anger, and turmoil
begin to settle down.

In their place we find
a deep tranquility,
that has been here waiting
since before the beginning
of beginning-less time.
Chapter 4 of The Tao Te Ching

Pondering Impermanence...
(From: Mystic Meandering)

With my mother's death last year and now with the COVID
Pandemic - feeling surrounded by death - I have become more
aware of my own mortality, especially at my age, with a body
malfunctioning, broken since birth.

So I have been pondering "death" - not morbidly, but with a
sense of the reality of the impermanence of this life of
physicality. What can you do... It's going to happen...
It's just the nature of time for things to fall away in the
cycle of life...

A few months ago, in my ponderings, I wrote this -

The "I" (the Eternal Being) that inhabits this body is not aging -
but "i" am surprised by the body's increasing decline - knowing
where it is headed - the inevitable...
death...

Saddened by the prospect -
although grateful that the end
to the body's struggles is closer -
how close "she" doesn't know -
but wonders what that will be like;
to witness the death of her body
and the possibility of a
"cosmic birthing" into a new "form"
of the Formless;

or maybe dissolve
back into cosmic dust, or be absorbed
by the Vastness of the Eternal.

Sentience dissolving into the Eternal...

Who really knows...

All is transient here.
We're just passing through.

I shouldn't be surprised by this,
feeling the body's decline as I do -
but still -

gives me pause...

My Soul is racing ahead of me.
It says...
The body is too slow for me
I am going.
Rumi

How Prayer Works
Most ancient prayers have nothing in common with petitions; they are, as it were, ‘recapitulations’.
By repeating them aloud or to himself,
a man endeavors to experience what is in them
– their content –
with his mind and feeling,
concentrating and reflecting
on the real sense of each word –
what it really means to him,
how he can understand it.

In this way, many ideas will become
connected in his thinking and many thoughts
relating to the words of the prayer
will pass through his mind.

And then it is precisely these thoughts
which can do for him what he asks God to do.
G. I. Gurdjieff
Quoted in:
A Recapitulation of the Lord's Prayer

open secret

Think of the phoenix coming up out of ashes,
but not flying off.
For a moment we have form.
We can't see.

How can we be conscious and you be conscious
at the same time and separate?

Copper when an alchemist works on it loses its copper qualities.

Seeds in Spring
begin to be trees, no longer seed. Brushwood
put in the fire changes.

The snow-world melts.
You step in my footprint and it's gone.

It's not that I've done anything to deserve
this attention from you.

Predestination and freewill: We can argue them,
but they're only ideas. What's real
is a presence, like Shams.

—Rumi

It is only through
Losing one's mind that
One may come to
One's senses.
All else is like
Trying to smooth water.

Silence is the language of God,
all else is poor translation.
~Rumi

when I focus on day-to-day entitlements, I forget the wise ways.....
inquiry for today~ may you too, remember.....:

Stillness is vital to the world of the soul.
If as you age you become more still,
you will discover that stillness can be a great companion.

The fragments of your life will have time to unify,
and the places
where your soul-shelter is wounded or broken
will have time to knit and heal.

You will be able to return to yourself.
In this stillness, you will engage your soul.

Many people miss out on themselves completely as they journey through life.
They know others, they know places, they know skills,
they know their work,
but tragically,
they do not know themselves at all.

Aging can be a lovely time of ripening
when you actually meet yourself,
indeed maybe for the first time.

There are beautiful lines from T. S. Eliot that say:

'And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.'
~John O'Donohue

AFTERNOON

Rumi ♡ Lovers have some secrets

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.

June 21, 2015

August 5, 2018

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.
Rumi

“Then,”

--whispering as it were to the bewildered neophyte
the dearest secret of his love--

--“then will He sometimes peradventure
send out a beam of ghostly light,
piercing this cloud of unknowing that is betwixt thee and Him;

the which man may not,
nor cannot speak.”
Evelyn Underhill –

This is love:
to fly toward a secret sky,

The Play of Perceptions - Nancy Neithercut
excerpt below

All of life always occurs by itself.

It is intuited and cannot be captured with words or knowing
in a conventional sense because it is beyond belief,
imagination or understanding - and although there may seem
to be techniques in order that you may feel this, all these
techniques do is give you the idea of it...

This recognition, this deep knowing feeling tone of
seamlessness... embraces the mind with the most wondrous
sense of awe.

It is an unfathomable, untouchable, un-pinpoint-able edgeless
vast expanse ever emerging never done nor undone,
seamless, fleeting, momentary, without time nor non-time,
neither moving nor non-moving - that has no name or
non-name, unknowable yet deeply felt.

There is not me, not two, not one.

All we can know is that there is an
un-interrupted, invisible symphony
of what we call perception
and the simultaneous recognition of it.

It is known and felt deeply -
the pulsating aliveness vibrantly appearing as
anything and everything.

There is no separate thing called life. You are simply
Awareness [Beingness] aware,
aware through a
symphony of perceptions,
the streaming of you, of me,
of we...

[This recognition] is the end of everything
you held to be
true about yourself and your world,
including the ideas of
truth...

Nancy Neithercut

with thanks to No Mind's Land

"Everything is a play of perception.
Life is an ongoing exploration of this
dance of perceptions."

AFTERNOON

listen
There is in Celtic mythology the notion of ‘thin places’ in the universe where the visible and the invisible world come into their closest proximity.

To seek such places is the vocation of the wise and the good --
and for those that find them,
the clearest communication between the temporal and eternal.

Mountains and rivers are particularly favored
as thin places marking invariably as they do,
the horizontal and perpendicular frontiers. ...

... But perhaps the ultimate
of these thin places in the human condition
are the experiences people are likely to have
as they encounter
suffering,
joy,
and
mystery.

—peter gomes

In one sense the Reality is creatures; in another sense, It is not.

... Whether you assert that It is undivided or divided,
the Self is alone.
The manifold [universe] exists
and yet
it does not exist.

—Ibn ‘Arabi

Listen.

Sit, be still, and listen,

because you’re drunk and
we’re at the edge of the roof.

—Rumi

You and I are just swinging doors.

This kind of understanding is necessary.

—Shunryu Suzuki
https://peacefullpresence.blogspot.com/2020/06/listen_16.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+blogspot%2FmnCFM+%28Love+Is+A+Place%29

*In that nothing is the witness.

When you witness,
you will be surprised that the boredom, the sadness,
the blissfulness, the ecstasy
– whatever it is –
starts moving away from you.

As your witnessing goes deeper, stronger,
becomes more crystallized,
any experience
– good or bad, beautiful or ugly –
disappears.

There is pure nothingness all around you.

Witnessing is the only thing
that can make you aware of
an immense nothingness
surrounding you.

And in that immense nothingness....
It is not empty, remember.

In English there is no word to translate
the Buddhist word shunyata.

In that nothingness... it is not empty,
it is full of your witness,
full of your witnessing,
full of the light of your witness.

REMEMBRANCE ROCK

You become almost a sun,
and rays from the sun are moving into
the nothingness to infinity.
OSHO

excerpt from:

REMEMBRANCE ROCK - PORTAL OF ENTRY

My first experience was that of a sun,
and as my experience went on growing...
the outer sun is nothing;
the inner sun is infinite.

Its light fills the whole infinity of existence.
And in that moment I am only a witness;
I am there.

when melancholy sweeps in
But when the soul contemplates in herself,
by herself, she passes into the realm of the
pure, the eternal, the
undying and unchanging.

Being akin to these she
always stays there whenever she is by
herself and it is in her power to do so. She
ceases wandering and she is unmoving,
because she has attained these qualities.
And this state of the soul
is called wisdom.
~Plato

I want to feel everything, no matter what....

When any drowsy one awakes and

But you, if you are awake, will tear up
your slumber by the roots like a thirsty

AFTERNOON

When the soul leaves the body, it is no longer under the burden
and control of space and time. The soul is free;
distance and separation hinder it no more.

The dead are our nearest neighbors; they are all around us.
Meister Eckhart was once asked,
Where does the soul of a person go
when the person dies?

He said, no place.
Where else would the soul be going?
Where else is the eternal world?
It can be nowhere other than here.

We have falsely spatialized the eternal world.
We have driven the eternal
out into some kind of distant galaxy.
Yet the eternal world
does not seem to be a place
but rather
a different state of being.

The soul of the person goes no place
because there is no place else to go.

This suggests that the dead are here with us,
in the air that we are
moving through all the time.

The only difference between us and the dead
is that they are now in an invisible form.
You cannot see them with the human eye.
But you can sense the presence of those you love
who have died.

With the refinement of your soul,
you can sense them.
You feel that they are near.

—John O'Donohue

Wherever I am
I am what is missing.

When I walk
I part the air
and always
the air moves in
to fill the spaces
where my body's been.

We all have reasons
for moving.

I move
to keep things whole.
—Mark Strand

From the beginning
the flying birds
have left no footprints on the blue sky

Amoda Maa - A deeper intelligence

There’s an intelligence that’s deeper than thought
and more intimate than concept.

There’s an intelligence that weaves together
the substance of your body,
the tapestry of your life,
and the majesty of your light.

It’s the same intelligence that
makes the stars shine,
the planets dance,
and new suns to be born.

It’s the same intelligence that
makes a bird sing,
a flea jump,
and a microbe eat up pathogens.

It’s the intelligence that holds you
whilst you fall apart,
whilst you bear the unbearable,
whilst you endure the suffering of ignorance
… until you finally return home
to your true self.

This intelligence has never not been here, in the deep of you.
It’s just that you looked the other way.
You gave your allegiance to an imaginary intelligence,
an external authority believed to be true because they told you so.

You ignored your true knowing for the knowledge of beliefs
force fed to you by those you thought were in power.

And those beliefs became your thoughts
and you believed those thoughts
to be your master.

But, my friend, the time has come.
The time for you to look within,
to go deeper than thought,
to turn away from imagined authority.

To become your own master,
a master of your life,
a master of that which is truly alive in you …
... and to rest in your true sovereignty.

Because, my friend, when you know the unshakability
of the openness of your true nature,
you will no longer give your power away and
you will no longer be threatened
by that which is not true.

You will irrevocably know
that there is no one and no thing that can take away
that which is your birthright … your aliveness,
the naked fact of your being-ness,
the irrefutable I AM that makes your life possible.

And you will live by this aliveness,
you will live by this intelligence,
you will live by the truth of your unshakable presence …
... come what may.

This, my friend, is how you
rise as truth in the face of lies.

This is how you are born into a new world
as an old one crumbles.
This is how you stand in your true sovereignty.

It is time, my friend … this is what you —and I --
came here for.

Eventually, it all becomes seamless,
the blending that is now taking place between
your outer self and your Higher Christ Self.

The day will come,
the Moment in Time will pass, where,
in a Holy Instant of Atonement,
you will no longer recognize yourself as the outer self,
as separate from your God Self.

You will come into that
space and place within your Consciousness,
in your vibration and in your conscious Awareness,
wherein you know 100% that you are God.

That Moment comes for each of you in which
there is no longer any human creation,
and there is only
The I AM God Presence that you are!

Then, you will no longer have to say,
“I, of myself, can do no thing.
It is The Presence within and above
that doeth Everything.”

You can then declare,
with full God Confidence and boasting, as your Asun does,
“I do All things!
I do All things!
I do All things!”

It is ‘I’ within,
above and all around that doeth
All things,
and you will have become that ‘I’.

There is no other Power, Presence
or Intelligence that doeth these things.
It is All ‘I’.’
-Lord Maha Chohan

AFTERNOON

Contradictions are what make love grow.
Conflicts are what allow love to remain by our side.
Life is too short for us to keep important words, for example,
‘I love you’, locked in our hearts.

But do not always expect to hear the same words back.
We love because we need to love.
Otherwise, love loses all meaning and the sun ceases to shine.

And yet,
even when Love does not appear,
we remain open to its presence.
Sometimes, when loneliness seems about to crush everything,
the only way to resist is to keep on loving.

Our great goal in life is to love.
The rest is silence.

We need to love.
Even when it leads us to the land where the lakes are made of tears,
to that secret, mysterious place, the land of tears!

Tears speak for themselves.
And when we feel that we have cried all we needed to cry,
they still continue to flow.

And just when we believe that our life
is destined to be a long walk through the Vale of Sorrows,
the tears suddenly vanish.

Because we managed to keep our heart open,
despite the pain.
Because we realized
that the person who left us
did not take the sun with them
or leave darkness in their place.

They simply left,
and with every farewell comes a hidden hope.

It is better to have loved and lost
than never to have loved at all.
Paulo Coelho

What You See is What Is!

Nisargadatta:
If you could only keep quiet, clear of memories and expectations,
you would be able to discern the beautiful pattern of events.
It is your restlessness that causes chaos.
You are entangled in the web of verbal definitions and formulations.
Go beyond your concepts and ideas;
in the silence of desire and thought,
the Truth is found.

Questioner:
At the back of my mind there is a hum going on all the time. Numerous weak thoughts swarm and buzz and this shapeless cloud is always with me.
Is it the same with you?
What is at the back of your mind?

Nisargadatta:
Where there is no mind, there is no back to it.
I am all front, no back!
The void speaks,
the void remains.

I Am That
Nisargadatta Maharaj

The Zen Understanding of mind and Consciousness
OSHO
Chapter 9 - Acceptance

The Great Way is not difficult,
for those who have no preferences.

Let go of longing and aversion,
and it reveals itself.

Make the smallest distinction, however,
and you are as far from it as heaven is from earth.

If you want to realize the truth,
then hold no opinions for or against anything.

Like and dislike
is the disease of the mind.

When the deep meaning (of The Way) is not understood,
the intrinsic peace of mind is disturbed.

As vast as infinite space,
it is perfect and lacks nothing.

Indeed, it is due to your grasping and repelling
that you do not see things as they are.

INFINITELY LARGE AND INFINITELY SMALL;
NO DIFFERENCE, FOR DEFINITIONS HAVE VANISHED

NO BOUNDARIES ARE SEEN.

SO TOO WITH BEING AND NON-BEING.

DON’T WASTE TIME IN DOUBTS AND ARGUMENTS
THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS.

ONE THING, ALL THINGS:
MOVE AMONG AND INTERMINGLE,
WITHOUT DISTINCTION.

TO LIVE IN THIS REALIZATION IS TO BE
WITHOUT ANXIETY ABOUT NON-PERFECTION.

TO LIVE IN THIS FAITH IS THE ROAD TO NON-DUALITY,
BECAUSE THE NON-DUAL IS ONE WITH THE TRUSTING MIND.

Soul Windows - John O'Donohue, Ram Dass & D.H. Lawrence

When your soul awakens,
you begin to truly inherit your life.
You leave the kingdom of fake surfaces,
repetitive talk and many weary roles,
and slip deeper into the true adventure of
who you are,
and who you are called to become.

The greatest friend of the soul is the unknown...

Yet we are afraid of the unknown because
it lies outside our vision and our control.
We avoid it or quell it by filtering it
through protective barriers of
domestication and control.

The normal way never leads home...

John O'Donohue

The spiritual journey is individual, highly personal.
It can't be organized and regulated.

It isn't true that everyone should follow one path.
Listen to your own truth...

Ram Dass

However smart we may be,
however rich and clever or loving and charitable
or spiritual or impeccable,
it doesn't help us at all.
The real power comes to us from the beyond,
the unseen, the unknown.

D. H. Lawrence

AFTERNOON

Treading along in this dreamlike, illusory realm,
Without looking for the traces I may have left;
A cuckoo's song beckons me to return home,
Hearing this, I tilt my head to see
Who has told me to turn back;
But do not ask me where I am going,
As I travel in this limitless world,
Where every step I take is my home.

~ Dogen
from the Zen Poetry of Dogen
https://beautywelove.blogspot.com/2011/11/home.html

the wisdom of insecurity
You cannot understand life and its mysteries as long as you try to grasp it.
Indeed, you cannot grasp it just as you cannot walk off with a river in a bucket.

If you try to capture running water in a bucket,
it is clear that you do not understand
it and that you will always be disappointed,
for in the bucket the water does not run.

To "have" running water
you must let go of it and let it run.

-Alan Watts
https://beautywelove.blogspot.com/2009/10/from-wisdom-of-insecurity.html

There is, in sanest hours, a consciousness,
a thought that rises,
independent, lifted out from all else,
calm, like the stars, shining eternal.

This is the thought of identity — yours for you,
whoever you are, as mine for me.

Miracle of miracles, beyond statement,
most spiritual and vaguest of earth’s dreams,
yet hardest basic fact,
and only entrance to all facts.

In such devout hours,
in the midst of the significant wonders of heaven and earth,
(significant only because of the Me in the centre,)
creeds, conventions, fall away
and become of no account before this simple idea.

Under the luminousness of real vision,
it alone takes possession,
takes value.

Like the shadowy dwarf in the fable,
once liberated and look’d upon,
it expands over the whole earth,
and spreads to the roof of heaven.

~ Walt Whitman

Chapter 14
THE FOOL

1.
By nature my mind is empty.
Even in sleep, I am awake.
I think of things without thinking.

All my impressions of the world
Have dissolved.

2.
My desires have melted away.
So what do I care for money
Or the thieving senses,
For friends or knowledge or holy books?

3.
Liberation,
Bondage,
What are they to me?

What do I care for freedom?

For I have known God,
The infinite Self,
The witness of all things

4.
Without, a fool
Within, free of thought

I do as I please,
And only those like me
Understand my ways.

AFTERNOON

Another Tune

The personality is a phantom even less substantial than the body,
being an ephemeral work of art like a musical composition
that dies away as it is played.

But when it comes to silence we hear another tune,
for we are reduced to the guileless simplicity
of listening to what is – now.

This is really all there is to contemplative mysticism –
to be aware without judgment or comment
of what is actually happening at this moment,
both outside ourselves and within,
listening even to our involuntary thoughts
as if they were no more than the sound of rain.

This is possible only when it is clear
that there is nothing else to do,
and no way onward or back.
