Life is Suffering

 

 

 

Accept what is, or you suffer. Lets look at that,

after all this is direct inquiry. Papaji wrote a huge

book, The Truth Is. Well dear Papaji, perhaps it can

be titled The Truth Is Love. All of what he says can

be summed up as "effortless, undifferentiated,

stillness," Staying here, or accepting what is, is

just this simple, nothing to it. This here is both

the nondual state of bliss within presence, and

satsang, or "association with truth."

 

Who is this satsang for, well, whoever shows up. What

is this satsang for, well, whatever shows up. We are

just here, after all, nowhere else we can go.

 

Dreams of going somewhere else, amount to resisting

what is, desires to go from here to there, and so this

desire to change what is, is where the resistance and

suffering arise.

 

What is? Ramana says everything is predestined, so no

need to worry about who or what joins us here. The

clear loving space of presence, includes all that

joins us here, in a never-ending satsang, or

association with the truth. We are here, to share

that truth of love, with whoever shows up.

 

Questions like "who am I" open up this loving space or presence, as what

is. No need to control what is, for we cannot anyway. It isn't up to

us, what presents itself here, or the way it goes. Nothing really

happens anyway, as we relax into clear seeing, and the loving space,

burns away any idea of who we think we are, always leaving us empty.

 

Theres a secret to what is, that it doesnt belong to

anyone or anything, and it simply is as it is.

Always.

 

Love to you
