Guest guest Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 If you believe Consciousness is your true self, as the Zen master once said, “You have mistaken a thief for your only son.†What is always there, is unconsciousness. It’s so in death, it’s so in deep sleep,in deep samadhi,and in the interval between two thoughts. This pervasive unconsciousness is the 'ground zero' of all phenomenality. Consciousness is no other than a perception of change, the root of suffering lurks there. Immutable perfection is beyond consciousness, and awareness. And yet, when coming out of deep sleep, or deep samadhi, a sense of tremendous presence, a sense of complete beingness is there as an afterglow, and the blissful shadow of the Immeasurable dogs the footsteps of the completely alert mind.

Isn't this beautiful. Isn't this the truth! Gods and goddess approve with a gentil smile. From there we came, from there we are at this very moment, and there we are going. Never born, nor dying we are maya, but when maya is seen there is only you. The eternal being. Nerver created, nor will he be destroyed, outside of time and qualities being everything, everyone. You are that! And there, in you... there is no more to accomplish, no more to learn, no more to understand, no more to become.
