Guest guest Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` When, at some point, there is a spontaneous surrender of the personal needs, preferences, desires, opinions, and beliefs that function as Œreality filters,¹ the realization of your true identify may spontaneously arise. When this happens there will be no more questions. You see that everything is the answer - that the guru is and has always been completely present. He manifests as the person, inner voice, or happening that triggers this surrender. Any way the invitation is extended, it functions as the guru. It may be silence from a sage or words from a shopkeeper. The surrender may come through agony or ecstasy. It can happen through an apple falling on your head; it can come from the smile of a child; or it can arise from deep inside as you walk along a beach at sunset or when your burn your finger on the stove. At any time, your sense of separation may dissolve to reveal the One beyond all duality. - Leo Hartong ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` Awakening to the Dream Trafford, 2001 ..
