Awareness watching awareness

January 7, 2004

There is something truly wonderful

and miraculous that I would like to share.

It is an approach to Self-Inquiry,

Self-Abidance, Self-Awareness

where one does not ask the question

"To whom do these thoughts arise?"

Where an answer "To me" does not come,

and where one does not ask "Who am I?".

Where tracing thought to its source

is not the name of the game.

An approach that is therefore,

completely, totally, entirely different

both in its practice

and the speed of its results.

The following quotes are only an introduction,

I will post practice instructions

some other time.

Please read the quotes that follow very, very slowly,

extremely slowly, looking at each line

and understanding it before going on to the next line.

Please read the quotes at least three times very slowly.

The following quotes are from the book

"Annamalai Swami Final Talks"

Questioner:

"It is difficult for me to stay focused on the `I'-thought,

especially when I am in the middle of worldly activities.

Is it enough to be aware of awareness,

of consciousness in general?"

Sri Annamalai Swami:

"If you are conscious of consciousness,

there is no duality.

Everything is included in consciousness."

Questioner:

"But is it enough to be aware of the awareness?"

Annamalai Swami:

"You are repeating the question, so I will repeat the answer.

If you remain in the state of consciousness,

there will be nothing apart from it.

No problems, no misery, no questions."

Please read the above quotes by

Sri Annamalai Swami at least three times very slowly.

Regarding Sri Annamalai Swami's statement:

"No problems, no misery, no questions"

it is true and it happens almost immediately

after only a little practice of

the Awareness watching awareness method.

It is such a beautiful state of peace-happpiness.

Take care,

with Love,

Michael L.

Dear Michael L.,

This transmission you have written here is excellent. I am happy that you

have brought this Knowledge to light and have shared it. This lends a whole new

view of clarity in the approach to Self Inquiry. I would like to share something

with you in private, however. If you would kindly email me, I will do so. Thank

you.
