Guest guest Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Anything I do to help you would be adding to your misery—that's all. You add one more misery to those you have by listening to me. It is an act of futility to relate my description to the way you are functioning. When you stop all this comparison what is there is your natural state. Then you will not listen to anybody. There is nothing to what the know-it-alls have said. I'm not saying anything either. There is no need to replace what they are saying with what I am saying. What do you have to say? That's more important. The natural state is a state of great sensitivity—but this is a physical sensitivity of the senses, not some kind of emotional compassion or tenderness for others. There is compassion only in the sense that there are no others for me and so there is no separation. The only way for anyone who is interested in finding out what this is all about is to watch how this separation is occurring, how you are separating yourself from the things that are happening around you and inside you. How can you separate the heartbeat from the heart? What I am trying to say is that you must discover something for yourself. But do not be mislead into thinking that what you find will be of use to society. You are finished with society, that is all. The so-called self-realization is the discovery for yourself and by yourself that there is no self to discover. There's nothing there, no soul, no spirit, no I, no entity, no psyche, no mind. There's nothing there to be transformed. Mutation of mind, what nonsense. Knowing means consciousness. Consciousness is so pure that whatever you are doing in the direction of purifying that consciousness is adding impurity to it. The intellect is not the instrument to understand something living. Thought can never capture the movement of life, it is much too slow. It is like lightning and thunder. They occur simultaneously, but sound, traveling slower than light, reaches you later, creating the illusion of two separate events. If you don't want a thing, there is no thinking, you would be surprised! All that is necessary for the survival of this living organism is already there. The tremendous intelligence of the body is no match for all that we have gathered or acquired through our intellect. There is no need to understand anything. It just dawns on you. Stop thinking and start living. When you try to be in control you have already lost control. .........guess who Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
