Awareness is not an evolutionary thing, nor is it a becoming over many iterations or educational processes. It is not found in self-seeking intentions, achievements, or effort. Awareness is just present, and the mind that pursues it will always overlook it by looking everywhere it (the present) isn’t. Your mind, all minds, for that matter, are in a state of perpetual movement, and until the movement of all thoughts ceases, you will only be aware of what you think, and no mind can “think” with the simplicity of creative silence. YOU are the Creator, but not because of anything your mind is moving toward. Awareness, quietly, “knows.” Be still; YOU “know” too.

What YOU are beyond your human form adores everything that manifests in three-dimensional time and space, and that adoration is available to the human form if it (you) would merely shut up and listen. There is nothing you do or don’t do in this life that displeases “what YOU are.” Now, your mind tells you otherwise, but that’s what needs to shut up. Zip it, live it, and love it!

What you believe is right inherently carries the seed of wrong, making any “right” equally wrong. “I am right, and you are wrong” is the way of the ego and the form of all judgment. What you believe is not what you know, and it is ever so little you or anyone can “know.” Let go of what you believe, but even more so, let go of your reasons for having them, as well. Besides, being wrong about everything makes for a quiet, blissful life that never needs an offensive or defensive position to distract you from joy, peace, and wonder. Life is total wonder, but not if you are “wondering” what to believe or not believe.

Conditioning is your puppet strings. That is, your upbringing, nationality, ethnicity, religion, social status, politics, education, name, etc., is the groundwork for everything you encounter in life and the basis of what you see. It is the web of judgment that traps you and everyone else in division and a world of right and wrong. The only way to eradicate it is to tear down the web. There is no light in the world until every light (individual) shines without the scrutiny of mind-made dimmer switches, and every judgment you make dims your light, not theirs. If you are sensitive to energy, check your “dimmer switch.” When you’re full “on” all that is resonates with you.

Love is not anything like the definition of the words you use to describe it, and therein lies its elusiveness and mystery. We look at things, trees, flowers, mountains, birds, etc., without ever seeing what they are without the label used to describe them. It is the same with love. To know love, you must separate what the word love represents and all the definitions you give to it from the “fact” of it. That is letting the overwhelming experience wash over you without your mind’s busyness analyzing what it is. Doing so leaves you breathless and at a total loss for meaning. And, it may happen in the blink of an eye and then be gone, but still, it never goes away.
Love is all you will ever be. You’ll know it when you can no longer speak it.

Each day, this day greets you with arms open, the kiss of sunshine, nature, and all that burst forth in heavenly nuance, not because it has all of this life to give but because YOU are its Creator. The smile of all that is is your smile, your breath, your love. My smile and love in return are the only way I can share my gratitude with you for this, YOUR creation!

Your search for whatever it is you seek is a coming from or a going to. Did you get that? Coming from is the past, and going to is the future. Neither exists. In other words, “what is” is all there is, and it requires nothing you seek in the imaginary to know its miracles. Life never passes you by; you do that, unwittingly, looking for it where it cannot be. Where YOU stand now is holy ground, not what you search for. Stand still and know the looker who looks. That’s seeing.

The act of searching implies that you have an idea of what it is you are searching for. “I am searching for enlightenment,” suggests that you have an idea of what it is, meaning you will recognize it when you happen upon it, and it will look like what you have already presupposed it to be. Do you see? This is not searching; it is accumulating confirmation for what you think you already know, and if you know what it is, you search for you won’t find anything else! Additionally, the thrill of finding (confirmation) will be short-lived, leading you back to another search for something to replace the last one.
Truth cannot be sought. It is dynamic and ever-transforming, and all you can do is be clear of mind and meaning and always ready for whatever shows up. You will never know, but you will be continuously surprised and amazed. It’s an exhilarating way to live!

Thinking is a by-product of memories, and memories, being of the past, never have relevance to the present, no matter how deeply rooted they are. You are never free to “newness” if you are thinking, e.g., subjugating, “what is” to what you remember. Awareness rests in a mind that knows nothing of the moment it is experiencing and only looks with wonder and awe at the undefined purity of now. No memory or thought will ever equal its beauty!

Learning can only take place in an atmosphere of “not knowing.” If you think you know something from the past, something you learned, then you are not in a state of “not knowing.” You’re merely remembering. Learning is newness and only happens “now” when the window through which you view experience is completely clear of any thoughts about it. Simply, a mind without its knowing is a mind that can learn, but even better is a mind that is aware that there is a vast unknown that is knowable.
