Ego’s outstanding achievement is suppressing the most obvious things you experience and replacing the real with eloquent expression and epistemological description. It is so clever that unfathomable beauty can be right in front of you, and all you will see is ugliness if that happens to be the mood of ego at the moment. Do you see?

The “mood” of ego is its preservation, and it will alter reality to hold its position of dominance over your experience regardless of any impact it may have on your experience. “I see,” you say. “I” is ego and is incapable of seeing the unseen, which is the “obvious,” e.g., beauty.

Beauty exists in every moment, every encounter, and YOU have eyes to know it when your “I’s” are made blind. That is, silent. It’s not so obvious when you think about it, so stop thinking about it!

Awareness is seeing exactly “what is” without any thoughts or explanations accompanying it. One who “sees” (is aware) “knows” instantly and is clear before any thought enters into it. In other words, any explanation of “what is” is its undoing.

You could say reverence is the doorway to “knowing” what is that otherwise is unknowable.

Have you ever noticed that happiness comes without wanting anything else? When you are happy, you’re not thinking about what you want to replace it. It’s the complete package of present-moment awareness, containing everything worth having right then and there.

Isn’t that the way of presence, experiencing “what is” without the pull of unnecessary desires stealing reality? What you want is always right in front of you. It’s not a lesson, revelation, or previous dream that has come true. It is what it is, and nothing you want will ever replace it or alter it, so why add a single “want” to it?

“What is” is yours to disparage or embrace. Since you cannot change anything, why not just embrace it? Seriously, what more could you “want?”

Awareness contains breathtaking mysteries and other worlds passing in front of your eyes that get hijacked by your point of view. In other words, your thinking is not the harbinger of reality but its destroyer.

Don’t try to unravel what you experience. Doing so will only sully the sanctity of it, and you will miss the unfathomable. The awareness of mystery unveils in silence, and so will YOU if you silence what you think!

Changing your perspective is like changing your clothes. You swap out one perspective with another, but it is still just a perspective with all the rules, boundaries, and definitions accompanying it. Do you see? Perspectives are baselines for thinking that only get in the way of reality. Without perspective, the only place you can go is “no” perspective, and that will free you to “see” untainted (by perspective) “what is.” A perspective-less mind is clarity no perspective can comprehend.

Human perception is the product of conditioning. Thus, it is limited, and we are only aware of a fraction of what is happening. Our level of consciousness is directly related to what we have been taught and by whom. Question everything you know, think and believe. It’s
hearsay

YOU the CREATOR- The Unchangeable Change

What we like to call change, for most of us, is really an adding of layers to the onion rather than removing them. We tell ourselves “let me do this, accomplish that or go here instead of where I am, and everything will be better.” It won’t; please get that!

Most of us are full of layers that are little more than avoidance of real-life experiences we find ourselves in. We believe that we can change our circumstances simply by running from them and that, somehow, will unravel us but really it just winds us up even tighter.

Shadows

What you don’t experience fully becomes the nature of your experience even when you think you have changed. What you don’t take care of now becomes a layer; a full-length overcoat that is heavy and burdensome!

Get good with where you are; be honest with it and never let yourself be fooled into believing you are not its creator. You can run from creation, but you can never run from yourself, e.g., “the Creator.” Live where you are because “where you are” is the only place life exists.
