Samadhi "If you can get to the point in witnessing in meditation, where you realize that everything is moving by itself, then you drop out of any idea of yourself and into formless consciousness. The experience of separation is cancelled out and you rest in your natural state.
It is here that everything comes right. It is in this that every cell of your being gets healed and transformed back into its natural state of vibrating bliss.
It is intoxicating, all encompassing and completely gratifying.
From the perspective of the mind, happiness is something you need to acquire.
It is something you are moving towards and so you are constantly looking in front of this moment to an idea of some future event where you will feel satisfied.
But this is dissatisfaction itself. This constant seeking into the future is unhappiness itself.
Yes, you need to practice you need to do everything you can to make yourself more conscious.
But the path is not linear but inward.
Through purification, you bring yourself further and further into this moment. You let go of all control and drop into what is here, you immerse yourself in what is here. Because what is here is what transforms.
The idea that you as a person can transform yourself into something else is really only scratching at the surface.
Only superficial changes get made with the mind.
You fall into this moment and there is an infinite ocean of grace. There is only grace, only infinite bliss and this bliss completes you on every level.
Once you experience this, all ideas of self help, transformation get tossed out the window. You stop being a person trying to go somewhere and fall into bliss itself. Blessings, Kip" Please Note: My main teaching is for you to immerse yourself in Kundalini Shakti - the energy one naturally radiates in the highest states of enlightenment. I have found a way to turn Kundalini Shakti into sound So simply by listening to meditation music you effortlessly awaken to your natural state of unconditional peace, bliss and freedom.

Reflections of the One Life: Daily Pointers to Enlightenment by Scott Kiloby by BookSurge Publishing Paperback ~ release Date: 2009-08-10

September 23rd
Nothing is opposed to anything else
Thought divides reality up into me v. you, us v. them, this religion v. that religion, this belief v. that belief, and a host of other divisions that are not real. These divisions are creatures of thought. Nothing in reality is opposed to anything else.
In non-dual teachings, one often hears that awareness is your true nature and thoughts appear and disappear in awareness. This is only a pointer. It is not the truth. There is no such thing as a statement of the truth because all statements appear in dualistic language and therefore create the appearance of two. This creates the false notion that reality can split itself apart from itself. In this false dualism, it appears that something is opposed to or separate from something else. Even the notions of true v. false are created entirely by thought.
Nothing is opposed to anything else. There is no real division between awareness and thought. When there is a belief in this division, there is often the corresponding belief that one must stay in awareness and deny thought, as if thought is opposed to awareness. In reality, thought is not independent of awareness. In buying completely into the mental division between thought and awareness, it appears that there are two here. This creates the sense of "I got it" when pure awareness is being experienced and the sense of "I lost it" when thought is arising. This is a trap.

Chapter 12
FACT: CONSCIOUSNESS
IS WHAT THE PRESENT IS
(Continuation...)
Only to human thinking based on the senses would it seem unusual that the Present is timeless, yet alive. Such thinking attempts to impose its unreal standards, which function in time's non-presence, upon Conscious Presence, Life Itself. Such thinking ignores what truly is, thus it is ignorant. It would say Life, too, should move and change in passing time, what-isn't-present, in order to be alive.

Excerpts From "Being Our Companion: Exploring Self-Facilitation Through The Presence Process"
The Presence Portal |
| | Michael Brown |
From PART V: 2. (Continuation...)
Once their services are requested, an authentic facilitator accepts that by agreeing to play this role for us the outcome moves in one of two directions:
- The second outcome is: We take a brief glance at the illusion the facilitator mirrors, feel the surfacing fear, anger, and grief, and run in absolute terror back into the environment in which we can hide ourselves from ourselves and from everyone else. This second outcome is most likely to occur when we are not yet authentic about seeking to overcome our predicament. Just as there are few authentic facilitators on the planet at any given time, so are there few of us who sincerely choose to perceive the truth about our circumstances when we ask to be shown.

The Transparency of Things by Rupert Spira by Non-Duality Press Paperback

Consciousness Is Self-Luminous
(Continuation...)
The metaphor of the mirror is helpful in that it enables us to understand that Consciousness cannot be experienced as an object.
However, unlike the mirror, Consciousness is conscious. It perceives. It experiences itself all the time, whether or not thoughts, sensations or perceptions are present.
