Un-Knowing Spirituality to Know the Present






There are many beliefs and concepts concerning "enlightenment" and "spirituality" that may be transcended for one to be here now. Let us realize that every one's "path" is unique and valuable. There are no mandatory requirements when it comes to realization.

One could say that the only "requirement" is to know thy self.

There are mysterious beings and their attractive journeys but let us ground into our lives. We are all on a beautiful path. We each have all the tools provided to realize GOD. We are each born through unique design and circumstance ensuring our "awakening"; our realization. Seeing that we are expanding into more, the love (the more) we are expanding into has our best interest at heart; love knows, and has provided. We all have our relationship with GOD, the formless, pure consciousness, etc. There is no "right or wrong", only growth, and this includes growing in understanding within what we call "spirituality".

Today there are many who are deeply ingrained in a "traditional" spiritual way and this is perfect. But each individual no matter what road they trod will at some point release all ideas of a path (including traditional, new, and "accepted") paths and embrace themselves: the One. They realize the One.

We may emulate and worship up unto a certain "point" within our understanding along our journey. But at one moment we naturally surrender every"thing", realizing the "more". This renouncement includes trends, our history, the possible future, our dreams, and all that we worship.

We know the one glorious GOD of Now: The GOD present in presence through relinquishing "things" (material attachments). We realize "more" than things.


Through our wisdom may we use our intelligence not only to discern "truth" but also to discern what we "think" is the truth? Truth is not a thought no matter how amazing or spiritual, it is being; a state of now; the river of today.

We may hypothesize and philosophize about truth but "truth" is beyond. Let us remain aware of this "beyond" so we remain grounded and flow no matter what our musings. We are here, "and" beyond. There are ways to adopt and practice but it is what we are thinking in-between that is paramount and revealing our consciousness.

Someone recently said this to me, or to this effect, "Seeing you have it 'all' figured out why are you still concerned with me?" First, I do not have it "all" figured out and second we can realize this question is the voice of the learning ego: the limited idea of self. The ego "thinks" it understands spirituality and realization by comparisons and measures. But the ego will never know realization seeing realization is realizing "more" than the ego. Realization is the transmutation of the ego.

The caterpillar may dream of what it is like to be the butterfly. But until it is a butterfly, until it realizes the butterfly it will only be a caterpillar thinking about butterflies. It will be a "spiritual" caterpillar that "thinks" it is a butterfly. It will not know the truth in being a butterfly. The ego is like the caterpillar. It thinks it knows the truth but has only attached to reflections of the truth, or reflections of what it would be like to be a butterfly.

I told this person that I have not changed, that I have expanded. The caterpillar still exists within the oneness of the butterfly, and so do the i's within the I AM. The caterpillar does not disappear it transmutes. I said "I am here and I still love everyone as I always have." What I was implying was to be here now with me not within fantasy.

Let us be mindful of our thinking of what it means to be enlightened. When we fully live we are present, and through presence we realize.

Realization is beyond all that we know - all knowledge.

Realization is experiential, and experience occurs now, always. One does not think, they know, or as I like to say "they un-know."

We are pure consciousness that contains any and all things, including beliefs and concepts about spirituality. Thoughts are "born" out of All That We Are. It is knowledge, or the destruction of knowledge that enlightens or awakens one to the realization that they are, have been, and will always be pure consciousness.

Let us be mindful of our propensity to limit ourselves through information and teachings. Teaching, true teaching is un-knowing. It is resonating with the wholeness of another that IS. We evolve (or learn) new information to un-know what we have currently acquired, or attached to, and this continues until the momentum of unknowing illumines home.

We are evolving our intelligence to understand what to next un-learn.

I am here and I am there




I write, and yet I don't
I speak, and yet I am silent
I walk, but yet I'm motionless

I don't pretend to understand
There are many mansions, doorways, and mirrors

And yet
there are none

How I know these two realities baffles
But today
Now
I don't care

For I am here
and I am there

Externalizes Perpetuates the Dream - An Answer

Well, here we are.

Without externalizing then what is left? We are. Own it, own it ALL to “know”. It is only US. Every moment is US. There is no mystery guiding, we are. Let the mythologies go. Let the parental and sisterly and brotherly and warrior and goddess and god archetypes go. It is US.

As we played life we climbed our way out of the darkness creating symbolic stair-steps, ladders, and lanterns; but they are still a dream because we created them from within a dream. A dream only begets another dream, and another; hence the game. Yes, there are endless layers to plumb, and no right or wrong, but they are still a dream; amazing, but still a dream.

IT IS YOU. IT IS ME. WE ARE ONE.

It is this simple. I can't fathom how "long" we have been playing seeing that involves time; how unexpectedly to awaken; how uneventful yet indescribable. No crowds of beings in white robes or castles in the sky. No booming voice or Jesus in the room congratulating.

We…
We just…
We just now…
We just now know and can rest.

All the energy spent fueling dreams is home, and thus we are full and wholly (holy) here. This is what those awakening are attempting to convey. But how do we tell someone, "Yes, I know, I know that you are you, and this is true, but you are also !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" This by design is illogical to the mind, it can only be experienced.

No wonder it is so difficult to share or teach; it is too close; too obvious; too literal.

I would not say it is a paradox, only paradoxical in our reasoning towards "it."

And unimaginably as it seems, each ONE that awakens is then worshipped symbolically and not seen as “The Way” (the process) and hence have then become another HUGE dream that countless dream in.

After ONE awakes truth IS: awake, not out to change; but is truth because truth IS. By design it seems "wrong" that truth in the world only deepens the dream, but it is not.

We desired the dream of all dreams: to forget, and then to travel back to the glorious, magnificent, and ONE-der-FULL knowing that we ARE, so here we dream. Does it not makes sense that every-thing would point us back into the dream, even spirituality?

Only at the end do we SEE the inherent WAY, or pearl within experience that is not seen until we have “eyes to see.”

When we worship ANY THING we are still dreaming.

This is the end of a loop; and it was what it was, a dream.

EnJOY knowing that it is a dream within a dream within a dream and one day we ALL awaken.

Interesting thoughts I am havin - take them or leave them : )

There is One Teaching One

There is but one student and one teacher which are one in the same.


The teacher teaches the teacher.


The artist paints for the artist.


The singer sings for the singer.


The dreamer dreams for the dreamer.


The addict is addicted for the addict.


The healer heals the healer, etc…



The design of life is incredible, incalculable, ingenious, ungraspable, and to just be accepted due to the scale in that life is created so that the one can see itself to then experience desires until desire-less through knowing wholeness.

Why walk? Why sit? Why do anything, and how? A desire is needed to do; hence a life of desires. Desires are integral for the illusory machine.

We are not saying to deny desire, but to know desire and the multidimensional gifts therein.

Desire is a doorway to the end of doorways. Of course there is a gradient within the amalgam of desire: an inherent evolution of knowing that is proportionate to less desire, but this is still desire. We may understand to accept the Earth and her societies and the physics and states and stages and developments etc…, and still ponder the beyond. This is still desire.

Why does a teacher teach? What is being accomplished? What is truly happening? Who is the student? Would a teacher teach if a teacher knew? Would a teacher have any desire to teach if wholeness is known? A teacher would be no more. The artist would be no more. The dreamer would be awake.

Wholeness is whole; there are no nouns or verbs or adverbs or adjectives - you name, it is not there, but the potential IS. Would a singer preach through music if peace was known? Why are songs sung? What is inspiration? Who is listening? Are they reaching out to the mystery on melody? Yes. Are they venting the frustrations of experience or triumphantly sounding the joy of being? Yes; but not realizing that even a celebration of life is not wholeness; for how can one celebrate a “thing”, or an illusory departure?

We are home.

All is provided.

Be free of desire through observing desire.


When there is no mystery there is no mystery and this world is known. The game has been played. Will it start over? I have no idea, but the mechanics are in place so it seems logical.
We build Disney here for fun. Would we not then create life for fun as well? Is there more after this? After? There is no after, it is Now and only Now, so let go.

This does not mean we disappear. On the contrary we are here fully.

Wholly.

Holy.

We enjoy the flowing grace and gift of existence through desire-less presence.

There is nothing to desire when everything is here Now.

We observe the flow and do naturally according to it.

Obviously I still have desires : ) and on some level am enjoying the game of re-remembering.


“As above so below.”


Is there not but One? So there is one mouth and one ear and one eye and no eye and no mouth and no ear and no thing at all. The moment we do, we are doing to ourselves and for ourselves, this is the only way. If you know, then you have no desire to filter that knowing through the senses until it is again unrecognizable. We know.

If we become a teacher it means we have not accepted that all is exactly as it should be (we have not become desire-less [we want more of the game]) and we must teach ourselves until we realize this. We are fruitlessly attempting to know another when the only one to know is the self.

It is beautiful to be compassionate and loving and want to help, but there is desire to do these things else you would not DO them.

There is no right or wrong, only One that helps by being.

The amount of books that are flooding reality is a testament to the teacher and the student. Look at all teaching all, it is astounding. This is the time for the teacher and the artist and the architect who are all the same: 1. Remember that we are the teacher; in that everything we do, through every experience is a unique reflection to wholeness. All we need do is turn away from the mirror and into ourselves to know.


So, here I am writing to the one, expressing through dwindling desires in words a few “things” with myself.

If you write a book, it is for you.

If you sing a song, it is for you.

If you create a foundation, it is for you.

If you suffer, it IS FOR YOU so let it be.


Else you would do none of these things.

(I wonder, as I see this planet of teachers and healers if there is not a loop occurring. I get the sense many are here to save everyone and everything (horizontal healings) and in the process are at vertical stagnation. There is a lot of worship and externalizing to penetrate. It seems that many are awakening to a level of teaching and healing which can easily create a loop of teachers healing and healers teaching, or a critical mass jump will happen. How interesting I am now here observing.)

Let it Go

The value of life is not known until you let it go.

The value of anything is not understood until you let it go.

You do not have to literally throw physical things away, just the attachment; for it is the knowing that frees not the object or subject.

Honor what is in your life, be it object or lover because you have brought this to you in love. LOVE all that you know; it is the attachments that cloud your view. All that you know and are and are experiencing IS love.

The mind is the stage, not the world.

Let every idea go, even if you feel it is "it" or important. If you need it for wholeness then it is the most important thing to devalue.

The moment you hear yourself say you have found that something, you are then the furthest from that which you seek.

No thing is that which is not.

Desires are communications that reveal attachments no matter how evolved one feels they are, so honor and release.

War is within you.

Holy war is within you.

Angels are within you.

Demons are within you.

Global warming is within you.

Peace is within you.

Pain is within you.

Anger is within you.

Disease is within you.

Dissatisfaction is within you.

Uneasiness is within you.

Any idea or concept that speaks of less than wholeness is within you and not of you.

All experience is within you.

All IS you.

All is perfect.

Do not stop, keep going.

Deeper. More stillness until you know.

See not with the eyes and hear not with the ears and feel not with the skin and taste not with the tongue: know.

There is the propensity at this time for gatherings and collections within ancient beliefs and Dogmas that are at beautiful heights, but yet are still on a "path."

There is no path.

We are always here.

Know that the most powerful thing concerning this it to LET IT ALL GO at every "level" of understanding.

Don't root, flow.

All is balanced for there is no other way.

GOD is love.

GOD IS.

Reality exists to show you who you are so listen with all of your awareness.

Acceptance is freedom.

Gratitude is not judgmental.

Take all the energy you have invested into swirling concepts, ideologies, studies, histories, and let them go to be here NOW.

Be the bubbling fountain of love expressing itself within this exact moment and not an echoing loop of yesterday or tomorrow.

Now is the moment, the only moment to BE.

A Little Thought

studying...

At this time there is little worry because even worry is not real. How can we worry when it is perfect, so perfect when we observe? So much is just gone, and in its place the more that always is. I have stopped wasting energy on SO many things. Within my reality I see through so much of what used to ensnare me. Somehow the clarity, openings, and unknowing continue, and with each is a purer existence to observe. I do not need anything but my experience.

I feel so free of the desiring for the things that we create when we are trying to understand it.

It is.

I do not have a mission.

I do not have to do anything accept be grateful and as present as I am able.

I know that everything is perfect at every moment the more I observe this, there is no other way. As I watch the intensifying spiritual market that we are creating, I am in awe that even this reveals itself unreal.

I feel it is the thinking that clouds and distorts as all wise ones reveal. Maybe we have these brains to eventually realize that it is beyond the senses so we need not look for truth with them. Enjoy the senses and the experience, for this is incredible now. All forms are impermanent at any vibratory level so let them flow through you like a breeze through the screen. Peace is always when we realize this. Every form that we attach to including spiritual, archetypal, masters, gods, you name it, must be let go eventually to know truth. This can be known instantly when we realize else we continue the endless loop of forms. If one can find fault here then one can find fault anywhere so let the idea of "fault go and be free. Know there is no fault and then one is free. What happens after death could be anything, so let it be what it is as you experience now. Could fleets of spaceships suddenly appear in our atmosphere, land, and then aliens share more mystery with us? Yes. But don't forget this is within the evolution of forms and vibration and what we seek is before form.


fun, fun, fun
