Gnashing Of Teeth

Parrots abound, though intelligent and clever as they may be. Much Talk but little Walk. It would seem that if the "'normal' human" wanted the rhetoric of NonDualism they would go to the Real NonDualist Masters instead of joining pet shops. Beyond that, it is somewhat amusing (though language itself is inherently Dualistic, and something we have to adjust for in discussions) to notice the self-professed NonDualists reveal their Dualistic thinking (and thus their Dualistic behavior) in their presentations. Subtle clues that are no more verbalizable than NonDualism.

Is not NonDuality a state of BEing that can only be Pointed to ? Are we not our message or our Pointing ? NonDuality is more than Singularity, but rather a Totality. NonDual is merely an aspect of What-IS, and What-IS IS All that IS What-IS. That is, NonDuality is not Awakening in itself but rather a symptom. To open your eyes and Observe the Wonders beheld with no thoughts arising to label or even define such Wonders, without projecting ideas or images or meanings into/onto such Wonders, Understanding that the only reason that you are not Observing yourself in this Observation is because you are the one Observing yet you are as much the Observation as ny of the multiplicity, All beheld being a Multiplicity yet a Totality of What-IS without articulating each multiplicity, is your very UnConscious Presence IN/AS the ever anew Eternal Infinite Present Moment. IN/AS such state of BEing you ARE the UnConscious Presence IN/AS the ever anew Eternal Infinite Present Moment. Nothing to consider and no one to consider it.

What might be indicated by "pain" ? Letting go of dearly beloved conditioned attachments and notions of all sorts ? What might be indicated by "Beloved, Friend, Loved One" ? Our True Nature ? A Total commitment to BEing our True Nature ? A Total commitment to Unfolding Awakening ? Regardless of the Pain ? In all schools of thought, Wise Sages say it in their own way and relative to their own time, but what they are saying is to Empty the mind of defiling conditioned programs to Unfold our True Nature of Awareness/Understanding/Compassion/Empathy. Which is a most arduous and Painful struggle for those defiling conditioned notions are rooted to our very core. And they are like crabgrass, you have to dig deep and get out every minute peice of the root or they will keep coming back. These Wise Sages do not gloss it over for they are simply using the terms at their disposal, WE gloss it over when we do not Recognize their words as Pointers to What-IS.

A Way that has been found useful since time immemerable is Self-Observation. That is, Openly Honestly Observe every thought and every action as though you were a third party Witnessing your own thinking and behavior. And Observe why these thoughts arise and why we behave as we do. And for what reasons do these thoughts arise and deeds done. And what is the intent of such thoughts and behavior. A most revealing study, for we get to "know thyself". When we see what conditioned programmed controlled manipulated automatons we have become, THEN we can do what must be done to rid ourself of these defilements. IF, that is, we are not frightened back to Sleep.

The mind is a Wonderful tool, since it must be engaged to say anything. There are certain communicative skills that we have learned to officiate such Talk. These learned skills, conditionings of a sort, do not impede our Awakening but rather aid us in Helping others to also start Awakening.

Sleeping or Awakening, we indeed think. Yet Sleeping we choose for there are many programmed choices, though Awakening we can only think what must be thought. In essence Sleeping we really have no choice because we choose what we are conditioned to choose, and Awakening there is only What-IS so there is no choice either. So it is only the harbored conditionings that are seeming choices as we Sleep. Any fool can Talk, Truly Awakening IS the Walk. And though many mime the Walk, as they Parrot the Talk, "the Shadow knows what Evil lurks in the minds of men".

As identified entities, separate from What-IS, localized in an individual, we do not exist other than in our head. Yet, there is a Multiplicity AS Unity. Words are simply used in Talking, as there is no real substance inherent in words but rather where the words Point. When we hold the finger too close to the eye, we can not See where it may Point.

I speak not of "apology", for we would not want to apologize for that which we ARE. Nor apologize for not Realizing/Recognize it. Nor would the Dear caterpillar. For you see, the caterpillar already knows that it is a butterfly, as the seed already knows that it is a flower or tree. For they are not conditioned programmed controlled manipulated automatons. They are already Awakening. On the other hand, humanity is a Sleeping conditioned programmed controlled manipulated robot so they need a whack once and a while to Wake them from the Dream they *think* is real. The caterpillar does not have to Wake-Up for it already is, yet humanity is still Sleeping. The caterpillar is already BEing it's True Nature, humanity is not. So comparing the caterpillar to humanity is like comparing apples to oranges, and we can not get apple juice from an orange.

The caterpillar is IN/AS the True Nature that it IS IN/AS Eternal Infinite Moment, always IN/AS the Present Moment. A Wise Sage to Learn form indeed. Humanity, on the other hand, has to Work his butt off to get *back* to that State of BEing. Also unlike the caterpillar, who has never Slept, humanity now that it has gone to Sleep will never start Awakening UNLESS he lets go of that which keeps him Sleeping. We can not say we are going to stop Sleeping while we continue to take the Sleeping Pills. Many so called *light workers* seem to *think* that humanity will some how magically start waking up as time passes -- good luck. Kali Yuga is helping to prevent such a wishful thought. For once WE take the *baggage* (conditioned notions) WE have to let it go. No one Saves us but ourself, no one can and no one may, others can Point to the Path, but we ourself must Walk the Way. And to put off until tomorrow what we must take care of today is the Way of the Grand Trickster and Kali Yuga.

When one is knee deep in B.S., one does not simply stand there and hope the B.S. somehow evaporates on it's own. In order that one gets out of the B.S. one needs to step out of the B.S. The Talk is not the Walk. Sleeping, the goal is to Wake-Up though it can not be a goal to attain. Awakening, there is no Waking-Up to attain. Does a fisher go to sea to not fish ?

The seeming goal is only Realized after it is attained, for it is not strived for or even toward. Yet each 'Aha', each Insight, is a step toward Awakening. Goals in themselves are indeed Veils to us Realizing them, yet without Working on ourself nothing is attained. Though that for which we Seek already IS, that Fact is not Remembered so we Work on Remembering it -- Zikr. We can not Remember for we are too beguiled by our own conditioned Talk. The "meaning-lessness of conventional values" Ramesh spoke of.

It is not that life IS a play or IS a game or without seriousness, but rather that the attachment to and the desire for life is but a play of actions and reaction that is but a game of winners and losers that is not worthy of Attention for it is impermanent. I am told that Ramesh is a successful banker yet not so successful on the stock market, so I would say that Ramesh was not saying that all is an Illusion but rather that grasping and trying to hold on to anything phenomenal is folly and illusive. But then, it would depend on one's conditioned perception for the Talk is not the Walk. Anyone with even half a brain can Talk the Talk, but few Walk the Walk.

I would say that it is not so much what we DID NOT give (though that is the case too), but more what we DID give. WE gave them the foundation for their conditioned thinking and behavior. Francis of Assisi once said, "give me your child for the first two years of it's life and the child will be mine for the rest of it's life". No, we are not to blame for the totality of our youth's warped thinking and behavior, but we did pour the foundation. And it is that foundation that opened them to the rest of the defiling aspects of the youth of today. It is those formative years that set the stage for the rest of our life. When we finally Realize that we are the ones who actually set them up to be conditioned programmed controlled manipulated automatons, we can not go back and change that but we can do what must be done to *break the chain* of programming. That is, we can go to our now adult or soon to become adult offspring and let them know what we have done to them. And Help them not to continue doing it to their offspring (our grandchildren). It may not work, they may not listen to us NOW as they did in the past. It must be worth a try though, for it is obvious that something must be done to break this chain of hideous indoctrination.

They feel and are very much influenced by the Dark Age Cosmic Cycle termed Kali Yuga, as we get deeper and deeper into this Darkest of Dark Ages. So it is going to get harder and harder to get this chain of defiling conditioned programmed notions broken. Like the Earth Changes, not all that many people consider the influences of this Dark Age for they encroach upon us ever so slowly. But Kali Yuga IS Here NOW and it is wielding it's destruction, as our conditioned thinking IS Here NOW and wielding it's destruction.

Is it not about time we Wake-Up ?

Call it what you will, yet IN/AS Truth/Reality you can be none other than who you ARE. We are conditioned to *think* we are otherwise. When you Realize that you are none other than the True Nature you ARE. It would be True. How can you see through the clutter of conditioned thoughts ? Clean up the attic of the conditioned thoughts and see what is left. IN/AS the Silence we Hear, IN/AS the Void we See, IN/AS Awakening we ARE.

It is closer to you than even your breath. Wherever you look, you will not find it for it is never *there*. It is not here nor there nor then nor now, but rather IS IN/AS Eternal Infinite Moment. When you get a step ahead of a step behind yourSelf you will BE where it IS.

If there are no problems, how can one alleviate the none existent problems better than another ? We are controlled and manipulated by such *flocks* to be as *one of the flock*, which means that we are not ourselves but rather the automatons that *the flock* programs. Turkeys and chickens *flock*, Eagles Sore Alone. We will never find True God in some flock or in what some flock would have us *believe*, but rather by Dwelling Within and discarding the various conditioned notions that *the flock* bombards us with continually. Within is where we Realize God, and not in the outward antics of some *flock*. As a child we do childish things, but as we Awaken we Realize that we outGrow the Dreams of the Sleeping flocks.

As long as we are mesmerized by the conditioning of *the flock* we will only see the world through the rose-colored glasses of the flock. It is when we see the hypocrisy of flocks, that we Realize What-IS (Reality). It is a long and arduous Journey Within, but we will never set foot on the Path until we take that first step. It is usually an uncertain step, but one that we must take if we are to Awaken from the delusions of conditioned thinking and behavior. In the flock there are so many Shadows that we try to function within, but alas when we take that first step into the Light of our own Awakening there are no Shadows of dark thinking or behavior. There is only the Freedom to BE who and what we ARE and not a product of some flock.

To use words is a necessity in communicating, in talking and writing, which does not indicate dualism. It is not in the words that we use that we are dualistic, it is in our thinking and behavior. Dualism, like Awakening, is a state of BEing. When we think and act and perceive everything in relation to something else our whole BEing is conditioned as everything is dual.

With each self observation of our reactions and thoughts and habitual behavior, and a look at the reasons why such reactions and thoughts and habitual behavior, we see the Veils that shroud our Awakening and prevent it's Unfolding. With each conditioned notion that we let go of we glean an *Aha*. With each Aha gleaned we Realize who and what we ARE and that we are Awakening from the DreamLand of the Grand Trickster the conditioned mind. This is not a belief or experience, but rather the Realization of What-IS and What-ISNOT. Truly Understanding the difference, and doing what must be done to let go of What-ISNOT, is what some call "Spiritual Awakening". Beliefs are not founded on Pure unconditioned Direct Experience, and experiences are not of the Present Moment but rather some past Moment. Awakening takes place in the Pure unconditioned Direct Experience of the very instant Present Moment NOW, and nowhere else.

To accept or consider or think that there is both (two) is dualistic for in order to consider them they both would have to be present, yet simply discussing the two is not. Thinking is a creature in it's own right and is not dualistic. It is in the contents of our thinking that determines whether we think dualistically or not. If the two were not present they could not be considered as such, as considering the two because they are present is dualistically dualistic.

It most assuredly matters, for Awakening and dualism are on *two* different routes -- one going in One direction and the other in the opposite direction. It, the barer of the ego, reacts.... due to pain or fear.... or simple dislike...... all of which is conditioned. We definitely have a delusion/illusion in order to Observe it in ourself, so indeed such an experience is in our repertoire. The Self-Observation of it would be Real, but the perception is based on those delusions/illusions so the perception IS the delusion/illusion for it is conditioned. Indeed delusion/illusion is nonsense, but a deluded perception can not Observe a delusion/illusion. Only by letting go of the conditioned deluded perception can we Openly and Honestly Observe ourself and our delusions/illusions.

We see the product of our crime, but are we willing to do something about it ? May I offer to stop simply adapting and rather *take the bull by the horns*. Develop, Unfold, the Meditative State of BEing so that there is nothing to adapt to and no one to do any adapting. BE who you ARE. BE your True Meditative Nature.

When we ARE IN/AS the Moment, from Eternal Infinite Moment to Eternal Infinite Moment, there only IS what happens to BE that very Moment. We only have to seemingly catch up when we seemingly let things go. Back again to distractions and lack of focus. So I would say that your task at hand is to Work on not being distracted. In this way you would BE whatever it is to be done all the time, eliminating anything left undone or to do. When the doer IS that which is done, there is no longer a doer because all is done.

Strange it is, to Realize that though you ARE the physical Form that you are Trapped IN it. Strange it is, to Realize that Reality and Truth are the very spaces of Silence between words and thoughts and even deeds. Strange it is, to Observe oneself as both the Observer and the Observed. Strange it is, to Realize that our conditioned notions keep us attached to that Form and so we think that there is nothing more than the Form -- with it's pain and sorrow and suffering. Strange it is, to Realize that to discard the chatter of a conditioned mind that there are no words or thoughts or even deeds -- so every Moment is the space between the conditioned chatter.

We are human to BE, it is only the greed and Desire to control and manipulate others that we feed upon our conditioned thinking and behavior and so enjoy inflicting such thinking and behavior on others to keep them as much Sleeping as we are. It is the way of Sheep, not for humans. We can not discard any conditionings unless we do "know thyself" or "be a lamp unto thyself". But alas, Sheep do not want to know themselves, for they would realize that they are Sheep and not human at all. We have to get to know ourselves and give up being lead around as Sheep in order to be human.

Due almost solely to their conditioned thinking and behavior. We are conditioned programmed controlled and manipulated automatons (sheep), and that is the cycle that must be broken before we can Wake-Up from the delusions that we function under as we are destroying the world and humanity along with it. It is not human -- it is conditioned thinking and behavior. Reacting is a conditioned response. Responding is a response of Awakening. Yes, they are conditioned to do so. The inducement of Fear -- Fear of being found out to be the robot they know they are. But Fear is an illusion, for our only Fear is of Fear itself. Nothing else could harm you.

Believe nothing that we do not Directly Experience, either in the physical realm or in more subtle realms. Belief systems are at the root of humanity's problems. It is time that humanity stop believing and Directly Experience for himself. It is called Awakening. Otherwise, they will continue to have Pleasant Dreams. For beliefs are for Sleeping Sheep.

Once the Door is Opened, we can not get it Closed quite all the way again. Glimpsing Awakening, we can never get that Moment out of our BEing -- it will remain there and plague us until we do something about Actualizing it. When we finally Realize that ther IS Gold Within the Lead we are conditioned to think we are, we have to start panning -- do we not ?

Must we put limits on sharing ? Must we put limits on Awakening ? The limits or walls that are established are of our own creation. When we discard the walls is when we Realize that we are Infinite and Eternal, so our sharing should be no less so. Welcome weary Traveler, perhaps NOW you have Found your Home.
