Awareness is found in the absence of what you seek. That is, it cannot be conceived of, mapped, or plotted and reached by gargantuan efforts and feats. You’re standing in it now. It appears when you give up on anything, you think it is.

Present moment living solves every problem you drag along with you from the past. Love, kindness, forgiveness, joy, happiness, all reside in a heart that beats at this moment, and the future’s great mystery is that it is impossible to get to. Did you get that? You’re already “there,” as in “here,” now. This moment is not a refreshingly new gift to you; you are a gift to it. GET HERE NOW!

Mystery’s beauty is its code of silence. It is humans who ask why things are as they are, seek plausible explanations, and apply meaning to something that has no meaning. Do you see? Awareness is “not knowing,” but allowing the flow of mystery to keep you engaged with the moment, alert, and fearlessly committed to living “what is” as is. Only your silence can match its silence, but it is an indescribable thrill that never lets you go. Don’t ask why, how, when, or where. Mystery eludes even the most profound and elaborate responses.
Let the moment fill you in its way and without your inquiry, and “you” simply enjoy the thrill.

The aware act well, participate fully, and appear to know what they are doing, even though they know nothing. They are free from the burden of self-importance and self-confidence that marries them to good and evil, right and wrong, and myriad other thoughts and beliefs humans wrap themselves in.
You are not better because you are aware, even though it may look that way to others. Awareness comes without ratings and rules. You “know” that knowing nothing is the ultimate knowing. This, I “don’t” know.

It is far too easy to look at “what is” with regret and belabor your place in collective insanity than to accept “what is” with humility, determination, and live life as a challenge regardless of what it serves up. Awareness is not subdivided by what you or anyone else thinks it should be.
The crux of enlightenment is that you were born with it, taught to turn it off, but still have it even though it is buried under a whole lot of “mind-made” nonsense. Uncovering what YOU are, before you were conditioned otherwise, transforms the world and enriches its mystery. Lose the vocabulary that says what enlightenment is or how it is obtained. You’re swimming in it!
Living mystery, without regret, is the ultimate joy, and the whys and hows cease to challenge your awareness. It’s a leap that will take your breath away, but oh my, what a thrill!

Your words, expressions, beliefs, thoughts, desires, etc., whether spoken out loud or internally, are the upholders of the unreal world you experience, and the “unreal” breaks apart when your base of so-called knowledge and understanding ends. Do you see?
Everything you experience is finite when you pass it through the “so-called” filter of knowing what’s going on, and only your mind does that. Reality is unfathomable and, therefore, unknowable. All your “mind,” any mind, should strive to do is accept and appreciate “what is” without a hint of “knowing” why. In other words, be quiet! You need no reason to live abundantly, nor faith or belief that something “other” will come to pass. YOU have come, and human experience, too, will pass. Please don’t spoil it by making stuff up that satisfies a mind bent on wherefores and whys. Live and be surprised! You will not lose a thing.

There is no “out there.” When you refer to the universe, consciousness, God, Allah, whatever, as the giver of what you desire, and creator of all that is, you transport yourself away from what YOU are, “in here.” Do you see?
You are saying something, or someone “out there” is going to give you what you want, and make up for what you’ve decided you don’t have now. I want, I want, I want is the equivalent of saying “what is” isn’t good enough, so fix it. It is a complete dismissal of reality.
YOU already are the “out there” you think is out there, and YOU have already given all that is. Nothing exists that YOU do not create, so look around. YOU are amazing, right now, and infinity bursts from you and no one else. Even those you believe are “someone else.” Stay inward; it is the epicenter of all that is.

The simplest and most complete your life will ever be is at this moment. This moment contains everything needed to experience all that is, including YOU, who is its creator. To factor in, any prior learning or future dreaming complicates and confuses “what is” and sets you up to lose the moment to the unreal.
Keeping your life simple keeps you present, your intuitive faculties tuned in, and your mind that makes stuff up tuned out. It’s all, and only here, now. Keep it simple! Live the “NOW,” now.

Life’s most effective sounding board is silence. If you take your thoughts with you into experience, you’ll never know the peace life so wholly and sweetly offers. You can tell all in a quiet moment, and all you’ll get back is an embrace and love so deep it swallows every concern. Are you listening?
