There’s no perfect person.
There’s no need to try to be one.
Empty all of that and everything else:
The cares & woes, the highs and lows
Pack it all in and just be.
Bask in the wonder of it all!
Who are you? I’m nobody.
What are you? I’m nothing.
Then why are you so darned happy?
Because I’m nobody and nothing.
THE ONLY QUESTION
“I just want to turn off my mind for awhile.”
It can be done – and easily. Ask yourself “Who or what is it that wants to turn off their mind?” That is THE QUESTION !!
Find that “I”: it’s right there!
A W A R E NESS
doesn’t move around.
Just wide open space.
In all its subtlety, awareness
Will crash the superstructure
Of all global false beliefs.
I am that conscious awareness
Of who “I” Am.
I, without anything attached
Vying for attention. Nothing.
Free to laugh and sing
Cry and shout
Or nothing at all.
Not a mind function
It’s of the heart.
The falsest of false beliefs
Is this “I’m not there yet.”
Who believes it is the one
We really are.
Can anyone tell me if there’s another term for the Exercise known as “Devil’s Advocate”? It’s such a misnomer. We challenge a statement by deliberately taking the opposing side which most likely we don’t believe. It’s a valuable tool in philosophical inquiry.
THERE ARE SO MANY ISSUES I want you to help me with.
I need to meet with you to discuss them.
I know I’ll need a lot of time, a lot of help.
I’m willing to pay for your time and knowledge.
You have two choices: the first one is to bring lots of money and a good shovel.
Why a shovel? And what’s the second choice?
The former is to shovel out all the darkness. The latter is to simply turn on the light.
T-H-E ACID TEST
No human experience,
White-knuckle deprivation,
Ever modifies consciousness.
But rising in awareness ushers in
Freedom beyond our wildest dreams.
BEYOND-EROTIC LOVE
In the physical realm
It’s nearly impossible
To fathom the depths of
I Am, Consciousness.
Titillating rapturous
Fleeting peaks pale
To fully grasp the Permanent.
Never collapsing, unrequited,
Whimsical, spent or sadly gone
But a sublime knowing infinite
Eternal happening now to
Kiss the joy as it stays
Alive, forever, in conscious rays.
That place-less place
Where awareness resides
Never sneaks off on fleeting hayrides!
Experiences that seem to be
Bodily in origin are Separate
Superimposed Self clinging for life.
Hunger not for the unreal
The latest trap within another.
Infinite Consciousness IS Now
As it has always been, unfettered.
The very “I” that never yearns –
Ever fullfilled, truly Passionate Love.
The JEWS took the “Kingdom of God in us”,
and turned it into the Kingdom of God in Symbolism, Government and Religion.
God, again through Jesus, demonstrated the Kingdom of God in us.
This time CHRISTIANITY turned it into Symbolism, Government and Religion.
“The Kingdom of God within”, is the greatest threat to the Religious System.
For once YOU AWAKEN to God’s permanent residence within you,
You will Never ever need Religion again.

FRESH REVELATION PASSES THE LITMUS TEST !!
“Empty out everything! – all your old beliefs – dump them all!”
Robin: “What a beautiful day, but I wish it were going to be warmer …!” (I didn’t even get that far in my sentence when the directive came: “Restate your sentence to include the BELIEF that is ensconced in it.”
Robin: Okay, lessee now, well the ‘I’ is questionable.
Directive: Good, but keep going….”
Robin: I seem to have said that if the temperature doesn’t rise to a given level, I’ll not have a very good day.”
Directive: That’s exactly what you have BELIEVED INTO EXISTENCE.”
Robin: Well, I’m giving notice that I am hereby believing it OUT of existence!
Directive: Then you’ve just exchanged one belief for another!
Robin: Uh-oh! Okay, I’m dumping all beliefs!
