You are not your body, mind, or anything else you think or have heard otherwise, and the intellect of all humans combined will never know or describe what it is YOU are outside all intellectual constructs. Do you see? YOU stepped into human form for no other reason than YOU could and did, and as important as you believe this experience to be, in the grand scheme of things, which YOU are the author of, it isn’t. Lots and lots of stuff is the content of living, but it is not the makeup of “what YOU are,” in the eternities.
Outside all you think essential and relevant in human experience, hearing the whisper of “what YOU are” is the engine of infinity and awareness that YOU are the creative center of all that is. Know that “YOU” and you will know only love’s embrace, that is, YOUR embrace.

The new-age notion of surrounding yourself with others like you or finding those who vibrate at your level is discrimination and prejudice. It is your ego’s judgment of another, in modern terms, that makes it seem okay. It’s not! You can be the caring hands, the loving voice for another who is not like you, and integrate them into your heart. Who knows, they may take you into theirs. But you can’t be the voice for everyone who is like or unlike you. That makes you nothing more than another voice screaming with all the others while the “one” you could love and embrace now is without your light (vibration) and you without theirs.
Your ego is most deceptive when the collective noise of discrimination screams the loudest. Don’t join in. There’s plenty of noise already, but there are too few of those who aren’t screaming to embrace the “ones” who need only you to love them. Loving those unlike you is a “high” vibration!

Your judgments are the evidence your mind develops to separate you from the world and others. It is a colossal refusal to know yourself and reality. If others or the world, in general, offend you, you are in denial of the nightmare that rages within yourself. Until you awaken from that “outward-looking,” your fitful dreaming will prevent you from ever seeing what YOU are.
Your awakening is not a change in the world or in what you perceive as wrong or right. It is your reunion with it and the joyful realization that YOU are not a dream but the Creator of those who do. Reunite, and there is your love, your reality, and eternal peace.

Strip away all you identify with, such as political or religious affiliations, beliefs, philosophies, causes, friendships, education, notoriety, acclaim, social status, ownership of things, career or school, positions, accomplishments, etc., and you end up in a place where no thought can stick to anything. At least anything worth thinking about. Do you see?
What you see yourself as, in human perspective, tears you away from knowing what YOU are. Your mind invents drama and game playing that is so superficial and unimportant that it usurps the very freedom you think you are entitled to, but don’t have, because what you think takes form in the game your mind is playing. Set the game aside, even for just a short while. This is the power of quiet, silence, and meditation. No purpose whatsoever, and no trying to get something you think you need. Keep even your most sublime memories out of the quiet, and YOU emerge, unremembered, but never having gone away. Then, enjoy, YOU; that’s all that’s left.

What YOU are that precedes all thought is untouchable. That is, not touched by any concept, philosophy, religion, ideas, beliefs, fantasies, heritage, etc. What you think yourself to be is the progeny of your mind and the focal point of your identity, judgments, and points of view. Your image of reality, in other words, is not only touchable but likely deeply touched by the things listed above and many others, all of which contain the fuel of anger, contempt, and insanity. No search for awareness that takes you to or through more conceptual nonsense will ever lead you to the destination you seek. It takes shedding, not searching. Do you see?
Untouchable, YOU cares nothing for what you seek because nothing you find sticks to IT. Shed instead of search. YOU already are everything, but it’s likely buried beneath a whole lot of junk you picked up while searching. Just Sayin’.

Your mind is a thing that generates thoughts that seek out things in three-dimensional form, which culminate in your identity with those things. Do you see? Accumulation of “things” does little more than give your mind reasons to identify with those things and just more things to think about.
When you are told to surrender “things,” your mind goes into a struggle, that something must be given up, but that is not surrendering; it’s resistance, and another thing to get you thinking. Surrender and the ultimate freedom it ensures is taking away the power that your thoughts have invested in things. In other words, it frees you from thinking about “things” to think about.
Identity is a thing, and anything you think you are (identify as) distracts from the real. YOU cannot be thought or imagined, but YOU can be known, but that happens only when you have nothing left to “think” about. What to do? Start undoing things by not thinking about them!

The world and your possible options to experience it are so vast, bewildering, and inexplicable that it is utterly futile to spend any thought on how to go about living. Do you see? The fullest life is an exploration of what is, as is, without commentary, analysis, or reason. Especially, reason!
There is no hope whatsoever that you or anyone else will ever fathom the infinity surrounding you. All that’s left is to explore what you can and embrace with a smile what you can’t. It will leave you without any time to seek answers to unanswerable questions and full of starry-eyed wonder and awe. It’s an excellent way to go!

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!

YOU are infinite void, still, silent, but illuminating, while “all that is” moves inexorably through the never-ending space YOUR emptiness provides. YOU illuminate the movement of all things, the looks of passers-by, buildings, trees, stars, and myriad other forms that grace existence, and yet, YOU are immoveable.
Nothing in life shows up for you. It appears because of YOU. Let it all in and let it out. Emptiness allows everything, and stillness illuminates it. All that’s left at the end of the show are smiles, but the “show” never ends!

Ego asks why, but only because it already assumes an answer, making “asking why” an attempt to confirm or add to what it has already determined. Rarely, if ever, will ego ask and accept a solution that doesn’t align with its already predetermined knowing, and even if it did, ego is incapable of knowing “why” about anything anyway.
What YOU are, that has no connection to ego, other than the observation of it, never asks why because it does not need to know. Do you see? “Not-knowing” gives way to perfect unattached, unbiased living, and all that shines through such living is joy and realization that the only effort needed to live is an awareness that miracles constantly unfold around you. YOU are the greatest miracle of them all!
Ask not why you live as you live. Seek only to embrace the miracle and mystery of YOU who is living it. There’s nothing better than you, knowing YOU!
