Going Beyond Judgment
"You cannot enter
witness consciousness
if you are still holding on
to judgments.
It is not possible.
Because judgments
separate you from
everything else.
But I am not saying
"don't have judgments"
but rather, in meditation,
turn your attention
back on to yourself
and accept what is there.
Accept whatever thoughts are there,
whatever feelings are there,
whatever sensations are there.
Not in the sense of a self-help idea
of "I accept and love myself as I am"
because in that you are still
placing something on top
of what is already here.
But rather
simply see what is
without any involvement.
Perhaps at first
from an intellectual understanding
it may be to see you are as you are
without adding anything on to that.
But from there,
if you really accept
what is happening in this moment
the personal sense of "me"
disappears.
If you really allow
your thoughts
and at the same time
you are aware of your thoughts,
they no longer are your thoughts.
By fully relaxing into this moment
to the point where you can
notice what is happening
without any personal involvement
with it whatsoever,
a shift happens.
This sense of
a personal "me"
disappears and there
is simply is-ness.
The action of thinking
is there on it's own
as is-ness itself.
Everything simply is,
consciousness simply is,
existence simply is.
There is no person
perceiving it but rather
the essence of everything
as consciousness
is aware of being conscious.
Not as an object
but as limitless energy.
The idea of time disappears
and there is only
the eternal now,
surprising itself
with it's own delightful
appearances and disappearances.
Blessings,
Kip"

Chapter 2
Beyond the Thinking Mind
Become at ease with the state of "not knowing." This takes you beyond mind because the mind is always trying to conclude and interpret. It is afraid of not knowing. So, when you can be at ease with not knowing, you have already gone beyond the mind. A deeper knowing that is non-conceptual then arises out of that state.

 Reflections of the One Life: Daily Pointers to Enlightenment
by Scott Kiloby by BookSurge Publishing
Paperback ~ release Date: 2009-08-10
To Scott Kiloby |
January 6th Confirming awareness The difficulty in pointing to awareness is that it is not an object or concept. In fact, the concept awareness arises in actual awareness. The word awareness is like a sign pointing back to its actual source. In these reflections, it is sometimes stated that awareness is who you really are. But even that is merely a pointer. Your true nature is an unbounded mystery. No word can capture it. Awareness is a sharp pointer because it points the mind away from identification with temporary thoughts and back to the source that gives birth to them. This source is always and already changelessly present (it does not come and go). It is timeless (the story of past and future arises and falls in it). It is non-dual (dualistic ideas and judgments arise and fall in it). In your direct experience, confirm awareness - the simple fact that you are. That confirmation reveals your true nature beyond the limited time-bound story of thought. Confirming awareness means getting a permanent felt-sense of your own I-Amness so that you don't take yourself to be any story placed after the words, ìI am . . . .î This frees you from identification with the past, the future, the body, your history, emotions, roles, titles, and every other object that arises and falls in awareness. This disidentification allows the peace, love, and joy of your true nature to arise. No temporary story can provide that clarity.

Excerpts From "Being Our Companion: Exploring Self-Facilitation Through The Presence Process"

Spinning
(Continuation...)
- The Alto Major is located at the back of the head, at the base of the skull and the top of the neck, in a location also called the occiput.
- The Nasal Chakra is located at the point where the bridge of the nose meets the forehead.
It is astounding that these two energetic centers are overlooked when they are so obvious. Why do we accept that we contain a Throat and an Eye Chakra, but that our ears and nose are not required to participate in our energetic functioning? This oversight is a testament to our lack of awareness while living in a time-based paradigm. What other obvious attributes about ourselves are we blinded to right now?

Changeless Presence
(Continuation...)
[The thinking and imagining functions are in turn withdrawn and, as a result, the dream state gives way to deep sleep.]
In deep sleep Consciousness simply remains as it always is, open and aware, only there are no objects present within it.
Consciousness projects the appearance of the mind, body and world by taking the shape of thinking, sensing and perceiving.
The process of falling asleep is not one of a separate entity transitioning through states. It is simply the withdrawal of this projection.

Go Beyond the l-am-the-body Idea
(Continuation...)
Q: What is the realization which is beyond understanding?
M: Imagine a dense forest full of tigers and you in a strong steel cage. Knowing that you are well protected by the cage, you watch the tigers fearlessly. Next you find the tigers in the cage and yourself roaming about in the jungle. Last -- the cage disappears and you ride the tigers!

From Above...
(Jordan highlights or comments on quotes from the teachings above.) |
From Nisargadatta (1/4/12): "Use every incident of the day to remind you that without you as the witness there would be neither animal nor God."
++++++
From Michael Brown (1/2/12): "Our overall energy levels are a direct reflection of the condition of our emotional body."
Jordan: This is interesting and good to know.
