In love with honesty of conciousness

[Guest guest]

J: When you are actually still, not in the mind or your emotions,

but within you as conciousness, then you will find that you are in

love with that.

 

Q. In love with what?

 

J: In love with what you know: with a true way of being, with

openness and softness of heart, with stillness and with rest.

 

Q. When you say stillness of conciousness, you're meaning honesty?

 

J: When conciousness becomes honest, it becomes still. As soon as

conciousness becomes dishonest, it gets busy, and starts doing what

it does not need to do, starts trying what it does not need to try.

It even tries ways of being that it actually knows do not work. When

there is dishonesty of conciousness, there is self-delusion

happening. Conciousness ends up insisting on something that it knows

is not true and that does not work. It insists that it has to work

because it thinks it just might, if it changes it this way or tries

it that way. And that never works. But dishonesty never ceases

trying.

 

When there is honesty of conciousness, it is the end of all trying.

It is the end of all 'doing' to 'be'. Honesty of conciousness

results in a true love of stillness and rest, for the sake of

stillness and rest.
