Realizing the Nameless
"Someone sent me
a beautiful email
recently.
They said they were
searching for something
that they did not feel
really had a name.
Everyone is really looking
for that same thing.
That mystery which is fulfilment.
But somewhere along the line
most get caught up in
defining it.
In calling it enlightenment
or kundalini
or stillness
or no mind.
And in naming it,
you lose what you were
looking for,
you create a 'something'
on top of what you were
seeking in the first place.
A something that is
impossible to attain
because it only exists
in your idea of it.
And then you get caught
up in ideas, in knowledge,
in spiritual quotes and inspirations.
By trying to figure it out,
you get further and further
away from what you were
seeking in the first place.
But if you can just surrender
back into not knowing,
to observing & feeling this moment
instead of interpreting,
then like a black hole
that bliss that has no name
drinks up all of the words,
all of the noise.
It eats it all up
until there is nothing left
but that which cannot be defined.
And then that bliss
is experienced
in everything.
Just by walking,
just by breathing.
Breathing alone can
be the most extraordinary
experience if there is no
mind there to interpret it.
But it takes practice,
it takes meditation
By immersing yourself
in shakti and meditation every day,
everything becomes clear.
Blessings,
Kip"

My main teaching
is for you to immerse yourself

the energy one naturally
radiates in the highest states
of enlightenment.

Kundalini Shakti into sound

you effortlessly awaken
to your natural state of unconditional
peace, bliss and freedom.

Tape 5 (Continuation...)
[The big papers don't talk about single car accidents. It's normal. Nobody questions it anymore.]
So, there you don't face it unless it happens close in your family, and that's a dreadful shock. Imagine your teenage son being killed in a car, and it happens. And it is as bad, to the parent or those close, as thousands killed in that disaster. To those close to it.

 Reflections of the One Life: Daily Pointers to Enlightenment
by Scott Kiloby by BookSurge Publishing
Paperback ~ release Date: 2009-08-10
To Scott Kiloby |
October 12th
Perfect order
The me is looking for the right experience, the right state, or the right thought. It believes that if it can rearrange the thoughts, experiences, and states into the right order, it will find spiritual awakening. It is this resistance, avoidance, seeking, and control by the me that gives the appearance that awakening is not already here.
There is no right experience, state, or thought. Stated another way, the right experience, state, and thought is found in what is presently happening. Every experience is exactly as it should be because it is exactly as it is. Every state is exactly as it should be because it is exactly as it is. And every thought is exactly as it should be because it is exactly as it is.
The me that would try to rearrange this furniture and pretend that something that is happening should not be happening is the only obstacle to awakening.
In seeing that this me is nothing more than a movement of mind, it is seen that even that movement is exactly as it should be because it is exactly as it is. In that way, even resistance, avoidance, seeking and control are exactly as they should be because they are exactly as they are.
There is nowhere to escape to, nothing to avoid, nothing to get to, and nothing to attain. There is only a simple love of what is. That is perfect order.

Chapter 4
Fact: Consciousness is the Infinite Itself
(Continuation...)
Finite applies not only to the entire material world, but to the ethereal world as well. Instinct or intuition, dreams or visions, and what is called extra-sensory perception would be more types of finite things. So would all psychic or "New Age" phenomena such as auras and chakra energy; "soul sense" experiences, soul travel or astral projection; communication from others who have "passed on"; and all other types of mental, paranormal or occult phenomena. Clearly, these aren't easy to measure or quantify-and they can't be seen with the eye or touched with a finger. But they all still would be finite "things" in that they are always experienced as observable phenomena, though perhaps only "mental" or relatively ethereal. Even these would have a specific form or pattern to them.

Excerpts From "Being Our Companion: Exploring Self-Facilitation Through The Presence Process"
The Presence Portal |
 | | Michael Brown |
From PART V: 2. (Continuation...) Whatever we run towards in this outer world is what we believe may help us to perceive what we are hiding from or about ourselves. Whatever we run away from in this world is what is showing us something about ourselves we are not yet ready to see. There is no exception to this predicament.

The Choice Of Freedom
(Continuation...)
[However, it is Consciousness, not a separate entity, which is ever-present between and behind every perception.]
The separate entity is created by and with the thought that thinks it, and is nothing other than that thought, in that moment. The next moment it vanishes, just like any other thought. It is an imposter! To think that event F, the 'I' thought, did not cause event A, but did cause event B, is inconsistent with our experience and defies logic. This lack of consistency is called the 'person,' the 'separate entity,' the 'chooser.' If we think in terms of cause and effect, we should say that A caused B, which caused C, which caused D, and so on. In other words, everything is linked together in a chain of causality. Everything causes everything. The totality causes the totality at every moment.

Chapter 87
Keep the Mind Silent And You Shall Discover
Questioner: Once I had a strange experience. I was not, nor was the world, there was only light -- within and without -- and immense peace. This lasted for four days and then I returned to the every-day consciousness.
Now I have a feeling that all I know is merely scaffolding, covering and hiding the building under construction. The architect, the design, the plans, the purpose -- nothing I know; some activity is going on, things are happening; that is all I can say. I am that scaffolding, some thing very flimsy and short-lived; when the building is ready, the scaffolding will be dismantled and removed. The 'I am' and the 'What am I' are of no importance, because once the building is ready, the 'I' will go as a matter of course, leaving no questions about itself to answer.
Maharaj: Are you not aware of all this? Is not the fact of awareness the constant factor?
Q: My sense of permanency and identity is due to memory, which is so evanescent and unreliable. How little I remember, even of the recent past! I have lived a lifetime, and now what is left with me? A bundle of events, at best a short story.
M: All this takes place within your consciousness.
