There is nothing to do. Watch. Watch the imposter’s belief-thought that much can be done to “awaken.” Watch the thought ‘there are books to read;’ watch the thought ‘there are practices to do;’ watch the thought ‘there are films to view;’ watch the thought ‘there are conversations to have;’ watch the thought ‘there are tapesContinue reading “Something To Do”

Something To Do
There is nothing to do. Watch. Watch the imposter’s belief-thought that much can be done to “awaken.” Watch the thought ‘there are books to read;’ watch the thought ‘there are practices to do;’ watch the thought ‘there are films to view;’ watch the thought ‘there are conversations to have;’ watch the thought ‘there are tapesContinue reading “Something To Do”
Some Advice When Drowning
Give up. This body never had a chance. Born in the deepest ocean, it began sinking before its first breath. Stop thrashing. Sink. Breathe in what you fear. The water will dissolve what you never were, leaving only Love.
Mistakes (In no particular order)
You mistake yourself for the sun but are Space; You mistake yourself for the wave but are Ocean; You mistake yourself for a body but are Being; You mistake yourself for alive but are Never Born; You mistake yourself for a seeker but are the Sought; You mistake yourself for a student but are Knowing;Continue reading “Mistakes (In no particular order)”

I also hear in many of the emails a great deal of frustration and efforting and pushing to “figure it out.” What I came to see, thanks to soContinue reading “Space: The Antidote”
Nothing Needs to Be Done
Nothing needs to be done to simply rest as the awareness that You are. No practices are needed. No special breathing. No need to sit in the lotus posture. No more books to read. No more talks to attend. No more weekend workshops and trainings are necessary. No particular geographical location is more auspicious thanContinue reading “Nothing Needs to Be Done”
The Good News
There is nothing to do that can take you any closer to where you already are. What if everything is already alright? What if you are exactly where you need to be? What if life is living you perfectly? What if it is seen that the ‘you’ is just another thought arising in…? You areContinue reading “The Good News”
