If you want to observe love without attachments or ego

If you want to observe love without attachments or ego...watch an 18mos old child kiss a one year old child.......just the impulse of the life force recognising itself..Bala Krishna consciousness. As the child recognises the ego/ahamkara and ages it becomes attachment and emotional sentiment covered in vasanas.............

The Incarnations of Jesus Christ According to Edgar Cayce

The Incarnations of Jesus Christ According to Edgar Cayce

Amilius

the entity that Cayce described living in the lost civilization of Atlantis who redirected the process of human evolution by creating a more appropriate physical form for the influx of souls to incarnate into rather than incarnating into the ape-like human form which souls had entangled themselves in.

Adam

Adam was the first "son of man" and "son of God"; the Christ soul after his incarnation into a physical body (corresponding to Genesis 2).

Enoch

Enoch was the antideluvian patriarch who journeyed to heaven to receive mysteries.

Hermes

Hermes, also known as Thoth, was the architect of the Great Pyramid and the sage who began the Hermetic tradition.

Melchizedek Melchizedek was the mystical high priest and king of Salem (ancient Jerusalem).

Joseph Joseph was the son of Jacob who became the Prince of Egypt.

Joshua Joshua was the warrior who led the Israelites into the Promised Land.

Asaph Asaph was the music director and seer who served under David and Solomon.

Jeshua

Jeshua was the high priest who helped organize the return from exile and the rebuilding of the temple (as recounted in the books of Ezra and Nehemiah) and who is claimed by Cayce to have compiled and translated the books of the Bible

Zend

Zend, also spelled "Zen", "Zan", "Sen", or "San," was the father of Zoroaster who wrote the Zend Avesta and founded the religion Zoroastrianism

Jesus

Jesus was the man who attained complete "at-one-ment" as the divine-human unity known as "the Christ"

Tony O'Clery ‎-----According to Cayce, Jesus was sixteen years old when his education about the ways of the ancient teachers began. First, he traveled to Egypt where, as an infant, Jesus was taken after his birth by his parents to flee Herod as the Gospel of Matthew states. After spending time learning in Egypt, Jesus spent three years in India and finally a year in Persia----

Human love and sentiment is the antithesis of true spirituality.

Human love and sentiment is the antithesis of true spirituality.
Because they are actually attachment....of the ego.

Tim There's a fine line on that one... if dependency is involved, I agree.

attachment and dependency are words for the same vasana.

No fine line-----a chasm in fact.......

Grief is a scar in the mind...don't scratch it.....

Let me make it clear...When the ego dies or leaves so does the body..
by Tony O'Clery on Sunday, September 11, 2011 at 7:30am

Let me make it clear...When the ego dies or leaves so does the body.....In all cases except in the cases of Muktas the Consciousness using the purified vijnanamayakosa re-energised the DEAD BODY and the Mukta appears to live..Jesus, Ramana, Maharaj, Lakshamana, Saradamma all attest to this..In fact in D Godman's book...'No mind I am the Self' Saradamma's death is described and Lakshamana's part in the revival...All muktas have to go through this according to Nisargadatta Maharaj...so this leaves all so called teachers who haven't as just 'Actor Philosophers' as Niz says...There are two definate qualifications for a Mukta....1. Literal Death Experience. and 2. Teach through Mouna or silence...

Animal Muktas.२.

Animal Muktas.

Lakshmi came near and started licking the papers. Bhagavan looked up and said: "Wait a little, Lakshmi." But Lakshmi went on licking. Bhagavan laid his paper aside, put his hands behind Lakshmi's horns and his head against hers. Like this they stayed for quite a long time. After some ten minutes or so, Bhagavan t...urned to me and said: "Do you know what Lakshmi is doing? She is in Samadhi."

Samadhis are built for Saints...Once an Ashram deer was attacked by some animal and the wounds turned from bad to worse. Sri Bhagavan sat near the deer and held its face in his hands, looking at its tearful eyes. Sri Bhagavan sat like that for a couple of hours. Chinnaswami asked my uncle who was standing close to look after the deer and relieve ... See MoreSri Bhagavan. Sri Bhagavan heard this but did not make any response. Sri Bhagavan sat there till the deer breathed its last. That was the compassion that Sri Bhagavan had for that deer. Soon after, Sri Bhagavan went to the hall. There is a Samadhi for the deer in the Ashram.

Swamy came across a cobra that had been woman in its last life.-----The cobra stopped in front of him raised its hood and looked at Swamy's eyes. Swamy looked back and the two of them gazed at each other for a few second...The cobra then lowered its hood and did pradakshina of Swamy's house.....After three visits it didn't return...Sri Lakshmana Swamy.

""The story if Cow Lakshmi is particularly moving as we have the full details of it, stetching from the time when she came as a calf in 1926 till her mukti in June 1948. When she was young and frisky, occasionally she would damage the vegetable garden. However when she was blamed for it, Ramana would immediately defend her saying, "She is not to be blamed. She went where she found good food. If you didn't want her to go there you ought to have fenced the garden properly to keep her out." "...On June 17. 1948, Lakshmi fell ill. The following morning, June 18, it looked as if the end was near. At about 10 o'clock in the morning Ramana went to her. '...He found her breathing hard and she was lying prostrate. Taking her head into his arms, stroking her neck, Ramana fixed his gaze on her eyes." "...Her breathing became steady immediately. Tears began to trickle from her eyes. Ramana's eyes too overflowed as he looked at her with great love. How could those standing nearby hold back their emotions?" "He asked her tenderly, "Amma, do you want me to be near you? I must go now as people are waiting for me in the hall. But wherever I may be, I am always with you." "Then he placed his hand in her head as though givng diksha. He put his hand over her heart also and then caressed her, placing his cheek against her face. When he had convinced himself that her heart was pure, free from all vasanas entailing rebirth and centered solely on him, he took leave of her and returned to the hall. Here eyes were calm and peaceful. She was conscious up to the end and left the body at 11:30a.m. quite peacefully."

Earlier I had asked, what is mind?

Earlier I had asked, what is mind? Mind is only the outgoing flow in words of this life principle, the prana. And how does the mind work? The mind is limited to the conditioning to which it has been exposed therefore, the mind cannot go beyond the specific molding it has undergone in the individual.. Nisargadatta Maharaj.

T O'CLERY'S GURU ANALYSIS

T O'CLERY'S GURU ANALYSIS


59) Jesus said, "Take heed of the Living One while you are alive, lest you die and seek to see Him and be unable to do so."GThomas.



Purport:

Take heed of the living Jesus(Mukta), for on death you may not know where you are and where you are going. Also some people don’t even know that they have died, and get distracted. One cannot achieve Liberation after death so easily. Use this opportunity of this life and don’t waste it.



aoclery@yahoo.com





Why do people follow Charlatans and non realised teachers? I think it is because they have not done enough study and sadhana to recognise the difference and they are too lazy to--so they want instant mcdonalds type enlightenment...Also in psychology 101 .Social Psychology...and modern life -Middlebrook- one will fine the definition of a leader as somebody, followers identify with but consider more knowledgeable or better at the job than they are...There is also the pop-idol syndrome and the egotistic need for seeing or Darshan of a spiritual teacher...This is a common identification process...All of this psychology the charlatans are aware of and use....and once you get away from the gurulings to the gurus one comes across transference of imagery on the the inner mind...or naming of ones's inner mind...after the guru...Buddhist call it the counterpart sign and it is more perfect than the original image....

Realised Teachers or Sadgurus IMHO...are the late Ramana Maharshi, Nisargadatta Maharaj, and presently living Sri Lakshmana Swami and Mathru Sri Sarada...There may be a mere handful more...All the non realised guru/teachers are in the mind only.



The Manduka Upanishad and the Muktas say it is better to follow the teachings of a dead Mukta than a live non Mukta. That is because Muktas are the Self and have the Sakitpat of the Self in their words and actions.

http://www.biogetica.com/i_am_that.pdf

Here is the truth ..

http://www.beasyouare.info/beasyouare.pdf



Why don't they publish..?...Like Alan Jacobs or David Godman or Maurice Frydman or Fuerstein on Patanjali...but the vindists don't as they are ignorant and have learned a non dual conceptual lingo that is all.



1. Non enlightened Gurus and even Frauds..These pages will build up over time.These are million dollar and billion dollar operators...Using the same system of always have something to be financed so donations keep flowing.



Sathya Sai Baba...'Alleged' pedophile, embezzler and murderer..Teachings are an eclectic mix of Hindu and other religions to suit more people..Claims to be an incarnation of Shirdi Baba.



Nithyananda......Alleged sexual and other irregularities.



Sri Sri Ravishankara....Big Biz...Roadshow Guru..broke away from Mahesh ...



Bhagavan and Sri of Oneness University......Big Biz Roadshow Guru.



Isha Foundation.....Big Biz...



2. Non Realised Neo-Advaitins and Verbal Non Dualists.

There are many of these...of whom their own Guru, Papaji said that they were not even a little bit enlightened and he sent them out to get the leeches off his back, in the hope some people would come to India for the real message..( 'It never happened'-David Godman).

Papaji said his own disciple-teachers,mooji, gangaji etc, were not even temporarily enlightened



I quoted Papaji the guru of cohen, gangaji, mooji etc.............I was not stating my own belief but Papaji's own statements to David Godman...I mention neo- advaitins and meat eaters like Mooji..who is famous for his 'lazy man's road to enlightenment' video on youtube. If you look you will see nervousness before he speaks and realises he has the crowd,,,only egos get nervous...My contention with the neo advaitins is that they essentially teach that sadhana to remove vasanas is not really necessary....although Nisargadatta Maharaj and Ramana Maharshi did sadhanA before and after Moksha...........The Mundakya Upanishad says it is better to read the Upanishads and follow the teachings of real Gurus or Muktas..THAN FOLLOW NON REALISED TEACHERS...that is my advice and what I follow....I only know two muktas on the planet and they are Sr Mathru Sarada and Sri Lakshmana Swamy...both in the Ramana line..Also a death experience is necessary before complete realisation.... What I am saying is that many so called teachers and self-styled gurus are superflous--just entertainment............Tony





Papaji made it clear in the book "Nothing Ever Happened"--David Godman, that those he sent to



teach not only are not enlightened, they are not even temporarily enlightened.



#1. When asked about those he sent to teach, Papaji said that the purpose was to



have them point the way to Lucknow, not to pose as awakenened teachers.



#2. Papaji said that many can fool others into thinking they are liberated but



they are the false coin.



#3. When asked about the experiences that so many people had in Lucknow, he said



they were false experiences.... See More



#4. When asked, "Why did you give them false experiences?" he said to get the



leeches off my back.



#5. Papaji said he met only two Jnani's in his lifetime. One was Ramana



Maharshi. The other was a man who appeared from out of the jungle into the town



of Krishnagiri.



#6. Ramana Maharshi said that there is a false sense of liberation that



aspirants reach that very few ever go beyond.





Papajis sent out disciple-teachers include ..Mooji, Gangaji, Cohen and a whole host of neo advaitins ...These are all small fry in comparison to Nithyananda and Sai Baba.Then there are all the gurulings sprouting up in the business.





These include Gangaji, Mooji,and all other Papaji disciples who are known teachers..Then we have Adyashanti, Liquorman, Byron Katie,Sailor Bob,Tolle, Parsons, Cohen and more.



All non realised teachers claiming to have the 'philosopher's stone'....and the non dual knowledge..Apparently they have the knowledge to collect donations...and gullible disciples.Some are paying themselves salaries of 59K to 100K a year...and that is only what is declared.



This week we will take a look at;

1.New ones on the gurulings scene are Bentinho Massaro and Karen Richards, who have a good grasp of marketing themselves and their product and the psychology of dealing with disciples and followers...They don't teach anything new...just have learned all the concepts and non dual speak....If they stuck to philosophy they would be fine but like the rest they need to sell the 'Secret of the Philosopher's Stone'...They intimate as they are teachers they 'know' something when like the rest they are the blind leading the blind and taking donations...Essentially what they teach is what they call 'awareness' which in fact is a form of preparation for meditation only. However they take it to a level it doesn't exist on as Awareness is The Self or Universal Consciousness. What they consider to be awareness is just the ego quietly hiding and observing its own thoughts...the 'Thief in the Palace'...the Thief pretending to be the Policeman. So in the concentration and meditation preparation they are useful other than that they only have an entertainment value..As all they do is still in the mind...and is not NirVikalpa Samadhi ..Kevala or Sahaja..Any non dual state they lead to is deceptive and not liberation and only leads to re-birth as is evidenced by the fact they are here teaching the concepts the brought with them from previous lifetimes..

Michael Jeffreys and Cory Bright.

These gentlemen amongst others are enablers and ride point for these 'Actor Philosophers' as Nisargadatta Maharaj calls them....posting much from aspiring mini-mes gurulings like Bentinho Massaro, who collects donations for his 'work', which has a resounding similarity to the words of Muktas but misses the point with his own non-realised additions.. It is all part of the play of consciousness --------------including me writing this....



Sailor Bob Adamson and his new business partnership with Gilbert Schultz...

2.It now seem that Bob has gone in with Gilbert to use paypal to sell products...In fact the money goes to Gilbert's paypal account first..Bob's teaching are a regurgitation of the Jnanis which are given freely with no charge...Essentially the teachings of Nisargadatta Maharaj,Ramana Maharshi and others. Why people cannot buy the original teachings which are available I don't know...Neither Bob nor Gilbert are anywhere near realised. Even at a stretch they are superfluous....really..go direct to Ramana or Maharaj's sites. Apparently Gilbert Schultz has turned up on Facebook in a different name I am informed..Is William Richardson Gilbert? let me know...aoclery@yahoo.com



Sarlo's list of Gururatings..

Sarlo doesn't get into Jnanis and Muktas and just comments on their teachings and not where they come from. He doesn't get into Mysticism, Sadgurus and Muktas like I will. I post Sarlo's site to show the situation with how many are in the business...

Oprah's Forum....Neo-Advaitins.....




http://www.oprah.com/community/message/509403





Here is a TV report on Eckhart Tolle, who is Oprah's business partner in her new spiritual enterprise or business pushing his books and lectures...at 200-300 dollars a lecture or 995 dollars for the weekend...........Tolle is an eclectic mix of Long, Gurdjieff, the Vedanta and other spiritual systems..........he claims some kind of enlightenment but contradicts his own teachings continually..........I have read him and he may be of some use to neophytes but a real Guru he is not----he is a businessman.

The Path of Advaita according to Shankara



For the purposes of this article, presented below is a very short

summary of the pre-requisites needed by a seeker before achieving

Self-Realization or Liberation (as specified by Shankara in his

Vivekachudamani - The Crest Jewel of Discrimination translated into

Tamil by Ramana Maharshi and from Tamil into English by Sir Arthur

Osborne).

In order to be qualified for enquiry into the

Self, a man must have a powerful intellect and ability to seize the

essential and reject the inessential besides the various qualities

enumerated in the scriptures. What are these? He must be able to

discriminate between the real and the unreal. He must have an

unattached mind. He must ardently desire liberation. And he must be

tireless in practice Only such one is qualified to enquire into

Brahman. The qualifications are enumerated as follows:

1. Discrimination between the real and the unreal.

2. Disinclination to enjoy the fruit's of one's actions.

3. The six virtues of tranquility, self-control, withdrawal, forbearance, faith, and concentration of the Self.

4. Intense yearning for liberation.

The aspirant must indeed have these qualities in

order to attain abidance in the Self; without them there can be no

realization of the Truth.



This then is the simplified version of Shankara's instructions for truth realization.

IT IS AN ANALYSIS OF GURUS, GURULINGS AND SPIRITUAL TEACHERS IN COMPARISON WITH RECOGNISED REALISED TEACHERS OR MUKTAS.





Monday, August 22, 2011

To put it simply..1..there are gurus who are the Self and beyond the mind....they are real Sadgurus and Muktas.

To put it simply..1..there are gurus who are the Self and beyond the mind....they are real Sadgurus and Muktas.
2 All the rest who are unrealised are in the mind and can only talk in the mind...and the mind is the problem so how can somebody drowning in the ocean of mind help you from drowning in it?


Even if you take the life-force as god itself, the working principle is the life force . The consciousness is merely the witnessing process..Nisargadatta Maharaj...


When you are in a position to observe consciousness you are out of consciousness . Then you are what we call the 'awareness state'. the vijnana or jnana state.Niz.


NB. This is of course Sakti/Siva two sides to the same coin,,,

Apparently the Advaita Vedantists were perturbed by my report.

Apparently the Advaita Vedantists were perturbed by my report. That is because they keep one foot in the superstition of Isvara camp....Here is a response to them ...



Namaste S********ji et al,



I think we can take Maharaj literally as he is talking about ajativada which is in complete agreement with what Ramana Maharshi says also..Even 'awareness' which is part of the Saguna Brahman concept is also unreal...for in NirGuna by definition alone, what can be aware of what? Maharaj is consistent in his statements and what he calls the life force is the sakti prana and what he calls the other side of the coin is consciousness or sive, hence siva-sakti..I do not worry too much about the semantics of it all; I just notice that the highest teachings of Ramana and Niz are exactly in agreement, with regard to all this, and literally. I find it somewhat difficult to disagree with two accepted Muktas who are in agreement with each other. They both agree that 'nothing ever happened', not even the appearance, and that is good enough for me.. I am not realised obviously as I am writing on here, however I practise my kevala Nirvikalpa Samadhi regularly and there is no world or appearance there......Cheers Tony.

Ultimately there is no creation of any kind.

Ultimately there is no creation of any kind.

Namaste RSji,

Ultimately there is no creation of any kind....but attributing some validity for
arguments sake...there is no reincarnation of a personality. There are clouds of
memories so to speak---Nisargadatta Maharaj---tendencies and attributes that
provide the energy for a new body...The ego is only these vibrations at this
time which is only the ego in potentiality as it needs a body,of any kind, to
manifest...The ego rises in the new body as soon as the child realises its own
small "I am' and builds the illusory personality from there...It uses the
defensive reaction response of the animal body and distorts that into the great
ego that humans have. So the
essence is just the egg and sperm of the mother and father and the tendencies
are inherited so to speak...but new ones develop new vasanas...

In all truth this is all in illusion..............Tony.

No personality takes rebirth...it is all illusion.

understand well that there is one substratum, one consciousness and one Brahman.
I also understand Tat Tvam Asi.

advaitic principle, to my little understanding.

Namaste S---lji,

No personality takes rebirth...it is all illusion. Having said that and
attributing some validity to illusion whilst one is in it so to speak; Some form
of rebirth of memories/samskaras/vasanas provide the energy for a new
body.....Nisargadatta Maharaj says they are like memories in a cloud...The new
personality forms from the time the child becomes aware of itself and the
ahamkara or ego develops so to speak...So all is based on this
phantom..........There is no reincarnation in my opinion and from what I have
learned from NIZ...Cheers Tony.

Namaste Tonyji,

When a baby is born to a particular parents he gets identified with the parents. The child will have his siblings and when he grows up will have his friends and then marry and have his separate family. He will grow old and his hair will grey. Then he will die. Now let us say that this person will take another birth but he may not have his same parents in his next birth nor have the same siblings nor have the same wife and family with children. Even his name may change. So even if he is reborn he will be born with a different identity. Thus the same personality is not reborn as there is a change which continues even on rebirth. That is why the rebirth is not the reappearance of the person with the same physical or mental make up. Once you accept this then only you will be able to accept the next step of how the rebirth takes place. There are several good books on the theory of rebirth. One particularly I liked was "Theory of Rebirth: Being a treatise on Indian Philosophy." Written, edited, and translated by Radhanath Phukan, M.A., B.L.

Regads,

S

The futility of human existence is the pursuit of pleasure,

The futility of human existence is the pursuit of pleasure, in the main, through lifetime after lifetime; The satisfying of the ego and senses over and over and over and over ad infinitum, through pralaya after maha-pralaya, through eternity in dimension after dimension, planet after planet....plane after plane. As Ramana says' there is always a body'..., for the desire egos. The cessation of this Dukkha only comes with Moksha. Otherwise one continually builds families, possessions, desires, achievements for a phantom that continues living and living and living, with no respite.

Pleasure is a distraction from the illness or disease of birth.

Even the Devas take incarnation to free themselves from their happiness.........



All this built upon a child upon whom the ego or ahamkara has arose....



Maharj say so called rebirth is the like a cloud of memories providing the energy for a new existence.

Surrender once for all and be done with the desire.

Bhagavan:

Surrender once for all and be done with the desire. So long as the sense of doership is retained there is the desire; that is also personality. If this goes the Self is found to shine forth pure. The sense of doership is the bondage and not the actions themselves.

“Be still and know that I am God.” Here stillness is total surrender without a vestige of individuality. Stillness will prevail and there will be no agitation of mind. Agitation of mind is the cause of desire, the sense of doership and personality. If that is stopped there is quiet. There ‘Knowing’ means ‘Being’. It is not the relative knowledge involving the triads, knowledge, subject and object.

source: Talk 354

Bhagavan also added, “We have to contend against agelong samskaras.

Bhagavan also added, “We have to contend against agelong

samskaras. They will all go. Only, they go

comparatively soon in the case of those who have already

made sadhana in the past, and late in the case of the others.”

In this connection I asked, “Do these samskaras go gradually

or will they suddenly disappear one day? I ask this, because

though I have remained fairly long here I do not perceive

any gradual change in me.”

Bhagavan asked, “When the sun rises, does the darkness go gradually or all at once?”

Ashtavakra said: Bondage is when the mind longs

Ashtavakra Gita--Bondage translated by john richards....

Ashtavakra said:

Bondage is when the mind longs for something, grieves about something, rejects something, holds on to something, is pleased about something or displeased about something. 8.1

Liberation is when the mind does not long for anything, grieve about anything, reject anything, or hold on to anything, and is not pleased about anything or displeased about anything. 8.2

Bondage is when the mind is tangled in one of the senses, and liberation is when the mind is not tangled in any of the senses. 8.3

When there is no "me," that is liberation, and when there is "me" there is bondage. Consider this carefully, and neither hold on to anything nor reject anything. 8.4

I think Vedantists doesn't approve of me taking the idea of illusion a step further than appearance.

Namaste,

I think Vedantists doesn't approve of me taking the idea of illusion a
step further than appearance....for appearance needs a mind and Brahman cannot
have duality so appearance also never happened.. I know the path they has gone
down very well....go to the advaitin groups and advaita sites and you will see
more of them....but it leads nowhere for it is all in the mind discussing the
mind...and people like to own their concepts....Also a teacher shouldn't really
be a teacher unless they have achieved what it is they are teaching, although it
is a a maxim if you can't do something then teach it...
Whether all these ideas are pointers or not they have come about due to the body
and consciousness manifesting in it...the son of a barren woman...The have all
come about because a child noticed that it existed and built on
that.............consciousness has originally forced itself on unawareness and
then on the child...As NIZ said it is all trash this religious and spiritual
study, and all the actor philosophers....there is only to recognise the I
amness.....a feeling not a mantra and realise that...

I don't think for one moment that I have gone a step further than sankara...he
didn't go beyond appearance as they wouldn't grasp it...Nir Vana means- no
sample Nir Guna means -beyond...

This is the only entry or writing besides discussion groups that I have
composed....Why? Because I am not realised and have vasanas so I am not
qualified to teach or be a sadguru....

Visitor: Is God apart from the Self?+URLs

Visitor: Is God apart from the Self?
Bhagavan: Ramana---The Self is God. “I AM” is God. “I am the Self, O Gudakesa!” (Ahamatma Gudakesa).
This question arises because you are holding the ego self. This will not arise if you hold the True Self. For the Real Self will not and cannot ask anything. If God be apart from the Self He must be a Self-less God, which is absurd.

The Secret of Liberation...ia the Birth Principle..NIZ...This is all you need!!!!
by Tony O'Clery on Friday, July 15, 2011 at 3:30pm

Only one in a crore, (10million),persons can find out what the birth principle is. And once you know it is everything, all knowledge belongs to you-even liberation is yours.......Nisargadatta .Maharaj....



The birth principle is Turyia.........Turiya is the 'I Am'..It is the witness state...it is Saguna........Tony .



Turiya is the 4th state above waking, dreaming, and deep sleep...above Turiya is Turyiatita or Nirguna...



I have put this in a note as it is the secret of liberation and it is so simple..........following the teachings of Niz...concentrate on the 'I Am'...excluding all else...develop that feeling that all is one and all is you....Koham -who am I? Soham--I am He!....I Am Siva -Sivoham...To slip iinto the parlance of Ramana Maharshi...one must go into samadhi....NirVikalpa Samadhi as that is Turiyatita....however most cannot hold it due to scum on the pond preventing the relfection of the sun or vasanas. I personally cannot truly hold it for much more than half an hour...or less than an hour anyway...Once one can hold the state permanently it is, to quote Ramana.. No longer Kevala but Sahaja NirVikalpa Samadhi...or realisation, liberation, Moksha, or whatever term you wish to use to grasp it...Moksha is Moha Kyshaya or delusion destroyed...



In order to understand Maharaj...he says one must worship the vital force that prana...that meditation is necessary. Presumably as it is the kinetic side of consciousness and is within our grasp....All this comes from Maharaj and Ramana.....Tony.

Nisargadatta Maharaj on the non realised teacher/philosophers.



"Talking about philosophers, all these philosophers what are they doing? They are only acting philosophy!"





Note. The fact that these non realised teachers are only acting means they have no power, they do not have the working Saktipat of the Self. They are superfluous. as the real teachings and recordings of the Muktas are extant. They are the blind leading the blind, they charge money or accept donations, for their plagiarised unrealised wisdom. I have already posted what Papaji said about his disciples who teach----that they are not even a little bit enlightened.

A lot of the Indian gurus like the late sai baba, or the present bhagavan and amma or one university and many others work psychologically. That is they get the devotees to take their images into their minds. They get the devotees to transfer or displace the fake gurus image on to their inner mind, so worship and pray to..as their own higher self....This is a well known trick in India that is well known to many...Westerners have no idea at all.....Once the image has been put on the devotees inner mind it is hard to remove, as the inner mind usually has no image. The fake guru becomes part of the devotees psyche..........

XIV. THE BLISS OF KNOWLEDGE

13. As water does not stick to the leaves of a lotus so after realisation future actions cannot stick to the knower.

15. Sri Krishna says: ˜Just as a blazing fire reduces the fuel to ashes, so, O Arjuna,the fire of knowledge burns up all actionsâ.

16. ˜He who has no notion of I-ness and whose mind is not tainted by desire for results of action is not really a killer even if he kills people; he is not bound by his actions.

42. Let the ignorant people of the world perform worldly actions and desire to

possess wives, children and wealth. I am full of supreme bliss. For what purpose

should I engage myself in worldly concerns ?

I asked, “But what about a pure materialist, who does not believe in God. How are we to deal with him?”
Bhagavan: He will come gradually, step by step, to find out the source of ‘I’. First, adversity will make him feel that there is a power beyond his control, upsetting his plans. Then, he will begin with rituals, ceremonial worship, and through japa, kirtan, dhyana, go on to vichara...Ramana

The problem with language is that it only reflects the mind.
by Tony O'Clery on Monday, July 11, 2011 at 9:08am

The problem with language is that it only reflects the mind.....so words like enlightenment or realisation are just words to describe a non existent event. So there is no word for it. We are already enlightened....we are like ponds with scum on..remove the scum/vasanas of desire mind and the pond reflects the sun...The Guru is actually the Inner Sadguru or Self...the outer Guru is the same Self a Mukta--Guru-Self, working through a different illusory body than yours...One is pulling and the other is pushing so to speak but it is ever the same Sadguru. One's own pond has scum on it but the Guru's doesn't so reflects the sun/Self

The body is an organism that will function its own way we are almost possessors, of it. The built up egoic mind entity occupies the natural body as a tool to enjoy and prolong pleasures and sense stimulation. Most people don't get any more enlightened as they age, they just get older with their bucket of desires still full.

Anything of mind is illusion...Truth cannot be spoken of as it then becomes a concept it can only be apperceived. Even, consciousness-prana, the Self, 'Awareness and Being', are all illusory Saguna....for where are they in NirVikalpa Samadhi?????????Nir Vana, Nir Viklpa, Nir Guna are all ways of decribing neti neti to the fullest......One last point -the human body/mind doesn't create a guru to follow,,that is also a form of body consciousness that some cannot shake off from their speculations...The answer is Ajativada as is my entry on wikipedia.

Before volunteering for Abyssinia my father had a relationship with a German girl in Bavaria

Note *3. Before volunteering for Abyssinia my father had a relationship with a German girl in Bavaria...Munich I believe, although he visited at Nuremberg as well..Apparently he traveled backwards and forwards from the UK. On his last occasion there he was having a meal in a restaurant when two men, dressed in trilby brimmer hats and long leather coats, stood in the door way and shouted out his name. The Gestapo had come for him and it seems they didn't approve of his relationship with the German girl...whether it was due to the fact of his mother's Jewish family or the girl's I don't know. He was probably lucky he was an Neutral Irish National, for otherwise he may have been detained, although at this stage Britain and the UK were not at war.. The Germans had the name of every Jewish person and family in the British Isles going back to a grandparent to qualify. My father's mother would have been regarded as 100% due to her mother's status, at the very least, making myself, and siblings and cousins, also a candidate qualifying for the camps at Auschwitz and elsewhere...The Germans on the conquest of the British Isles were going to round up all the Jews and deport them to the camps along with other such as Communists etc..Bavaria would have been handy for the Gestapo as that was were Dachau, and Flossenberg, were situated; so my father's Irish Nationality saved him from going to that local concentration camp.

The test for a realised person is -1. A literal death experience, not a dream or visualisation. Jesus,Maharaj,Ramana,Lakshmana Swamy, Mathru Sri Sarada, Sri Ramakrishna all died and were resurrected as the Self.



2. Be able to teach with silence...As Lakshmana Swamy still does....

Maharaj and the necessary 'death experience' for realisation.David Godman.
by Tony O'Clery on Friday, June 24, 2011 at 5:06pm

At some point Maharaj asked him, 'Have you witnessed your own death?' and Rudi replied 'No'.



Maharaj then launched into a mini-lecture on how it was necessary to witness one's own death in order for there to be full realisation of the Self. He said that it had happened to him after he thought that he had fully realised the Self, and it wasn't until after this death experience that he understood that this process was necessary for final liberation. I hope somebody recorded this dialogue on tape because I am depending on a twenty-five-year-old memory for this. It seems to be a crucial part of Maharaj's experience and teachings but I never heard him mention it on any other occasion. I have also not come across it in any of his books.



Maharaj continued to pester Rudi about the necessity of witnessing death, but Rudi kept quiet and just smiled beatifically. He refused to defend himself, and he refused to be provoked. Anyway, I don't think he was in any condition to start and sustain an argument. Whatever state he was in seemed to be compelling all his attention. I got the feeling that he found articulating even brief replies hard

Re-birth and the memory causal body..


What reincarnates are the tendencies, attributes, vasanas -or memory causal body, or cloud of images..Maharaj says. Due to vibratory compensation and karma it identifies with a body in the womb at about 4 or 5 months and enters.But there is no 'I' and won't be for a couple of years after birth.. So the concept of reincarnating personality is a false interpolation.The whole construct is a hare's horn based on memory alone that ultimately doesn't exist.....

Unlike the quick energy of a football game...golf requires the application and development of a strong ego sense of hours of time....just look at the kind of people who in the main follow the occupation....and see then what it is about...mostly business people and polilticians etc.

The basic attraction of human love is the ground

The basic attraction of human love is the ground or prana as we are all prani, but the ego adds attachment and distorts it into pollyanna sentimental emotionalism. Love in action is helping without thinking one is helping...

1985; With regard to my dream of being a cow in a slaughterhouse


1985; With regard to my dream of being a cow in a slaughterhouse, and the subsequent horrific dream, that I had; I think my previous months of meditation and giving up drinking had allowed my intellectual or vijnanamayakosa to be cleaned somewhat, so it was developed enough to react to the 'dream', in a positive way and give up the hypocritical position of having 'god' in my heart and meat on my plate....In fact Ramana does say that sadhana and meditation are necessary for purification of the vasanas....but eating meat is bringing in untold millions of years of vasanas and the death process, of the animal into our own bodies...



Food affects the mind. For the practice of any kind of yoga, vegetarianism is absolutely necessary since it makes the mind more sattvic [pure and harmonious]. --Sri Ramana Maharshi.

One has no idea where we are at spiritually, as it is all in the citta vasana or subconscious mind. Every now and then one realises the purification is going on, sometimes we call the pranic cleaning of the kosas, the rise of kundalini or universal mind...

How CAn One Recognize a Realized Teacher or Sadguru

How CAn One Recognize a Realized Teacher or Sadguru by Tony O'Clery.

How CAn One Recognize a Realized Teacher or Sadguru by Tony O'Clery.
First of all a True Guru will call you and you will know from inside...the heart..However they usually share some common signals.

1. Teach vegetarianism .....for Daya, Ahimsa and self purification.

2. Teach recognisable Teachings from Vedanta and other Muktas. All is One and the small 'I' is false.

3. Usually they are not over active and don't travel a lot if possible....Nowhere to go!!!

4. They teach a lot by silence like Dakshinamurthi.....and are not given to long road show discourses...

5. They do not write copiously..but may answer questions.....but not usually from dilletantes..

6. Have the ability to answer obtuse questions without being tertiary educated...

7. You can usually feel their energy and they can give Diksha or initiation and Saktipat....

8. They are usually not making, generating and selling Books, DVDs, and asking for donations.

9. They are not given to siddhis and miracles although things may happen around them.

10. Regard all beings as being equal including animals.

11. Sometimes grant Moksha to animals......and advanced humans...

12. They usually prefer to more reclusive than expansive....

13. Demonstrate or advise some kind of sadhana...and meditation.

Those road show gurus are not usually Muktas and although do good work for everybody and themselves cannot impart initiation as only a Mukta with power of the Self can do that...

Of course the easiest way is to become a Mukta..............

Turn the other cheek.

Turn the other cheek.
.by Tony O'Clery on Monday, May 23, 2011 at 7:56am. Falling out and arguments with family and friends isn't about 'making up' and mending fences or giving love. It is about getting over the attachment and surrendering. Jesus' turn the other cheek isn't about non violence per se but about the absolute futility in doing anything about it all...You may as well turn the other cheek ; The cheek of detachment and non karma...that is real love not sentiment...( The point of this is the per se...what is going to happen will happen anyway, mending fences or giving 'love', is the external action and human love is mostly attachment, things should be done for the Self's sake).
Like the yogi whose coat was stolen by a thief and he ran after him to give him his second garment so he wouldn't be attached...It takes a lot of attachment and pleasure to finally realise all is insanity and dukkha and that life in total is actually death.

Sex is the vasana

Sex is the vasana that is the Portal to the Creation Impulse of the Universe. Meditation has to reverse the Portal to achieve Realisation or Moksha.

In the end result

In the end result expecting any permanent good from illusion and its deluded inhabitants is futile...as ephemeral is what it is or isn't. All one does is allow one's mind/ego to wander out and receive temporary pleasure between two griefs...a distraction or diversion that is all...No 'good' can be created out of dream stuff.

Friday, April 29, 2011

Anything you can think

Anything you can think of, touch love, enjoy, help, console, teach, marry, bury, baptise, believe in, worship, follow is all ultmately nonsense and of the mind therefore unreal and has to be dropped.

Human evolution is away from the truth not towards it...Animals use silence and subtle telepathic imagery to communicate and only use gross sound sparingly. Humans have lost the subtle abilities and are only left with the mechanical speech and computer of the frontal lobes.

Grief comes waves

Grief comes waves as it is attached to the mind in the 3 gunas. Which cause waves and movements of the pranas. But it is the Ego mind putting on the energy, good, bad, danger, excitement, devotion whatever. Naming the un-named common energy that is..

At present, spirituality on the planet has divided

At present, spirituality on the planet has divided into the ancient Vedantic type science of liberation and the superficiality of Western Verbal Non-Dualism, Vindism, which like so many other 'easy mind ways' is a dead end leading only to rebirth in illusion, wandering in the forest of thought.
Mind has only one use and that is to take one to the doorstep of Nirvikalpa Samadhi, with the removal of vasanas...
People try and make illusion real and relevant, with emotional sentiment, attachment and pollyanna ideas..but one cannot make a silk purse out of a sow's ear...it is all mind...
Any form of mind, a thought spiritual or a thought obscene, there is no difference....thought is thought ...

Forget all teachings except words of the Muktas....all else is just superfluous without Saktipat...So either get a living guru or follow the teachings of the ages..until The Self is your guru. All else is a total waste of time if you are really sincere about Moksha.

Where and when is the strongest communications between humans?

Where and when is the strongest communications between humans?
by Tony O'Clery on Tuesday, April 12, 2011 at 7:01am

Where and when is the strongest communications between humans? It is before speech-as speech brings questions and disagreements as speech is a tool of the ego.

When you open your eyes in the morning what do you see? and How do you feel? Are you looking and not recognising where you are. That is before the ego starts to run with the ego. Do you search for knowing where you are ? That is the ego trying to string thoughts on the sutra....



What do you feel? Do you have memory of Bliss if you wake from the causal state without tarrying in the dream plane? Who are you now the ego has risen and you know where you are and what you have to do and the thoughts come rushing in.

Speech and words can turn into the greatest impediment

Watch the commercials on TV-all the happy people smiling away and know so many cannot be happy all the time---know is it is a delusion of experiences and pleasures.

Speech and words can turn into the greatest impediment to realisation apparently. Hence Lakshmana Swamy and others taught through silence, which is the most subtle. So images and words are the tools of the ego, diverting one from concentrating on Kevala NirVikalpa Samadhi and Moksha.

The ill educated bhakta has the advantage of being 'light' and not heavy with weight the load of overloaded verbose intellect, full of diverse words and dialectics all providing armour the ego...

The wordy teachers and verbal non dualists or vndists are a diversion as they are tangible and people can understand and converse with them in ego diversion.However they are a complete dead end and only end up in re-birth. Even if they can reach a plane of seeming non-duality, which deceives them and their clever intellectual minds and mind awarenss, now etc etc.It is the oldest trick in the ego's book the marshalling of the ego's cohorts....

People don't really want moksha they just want to talk about it, as they are a victim of their own egos. They do this as they look at Moksha or liberation as just another experience for some kind of pleasure............

This is what Meher Baba had to say about Jesus in India:

This is what Meher Baba had to say about Jesus in India:
by Tony O'Clery on Friday, April 8, 2011 at 5:23pm

This is what Meher Baba had to

say about Jesus in India:



"There is one secret about Jesus which the Christians do not know.

When Jesus was crucified, he did not die. He entered the state of

Nirvikalpa Samadhi (the I-am-God state without bodily consciousness).

On the third day, he again became conscious of his body, and he

traveled secretly in disguise eastward (with some apostles) to India.

This was called Jesus' resurrection. After reaching India, he

traveled farther east to Rangoon, in Burma, where he remained for

some time. He then went north to Kashmir, where he settled. When his

work was finished on earth, he dropped his body and entered Nirvikalp

Samadhi permanently. Saints in India have verified these facts about

Jesus' travels. Mankind will soon become aware of the true life of

Jesus." [23 August 1925, Meherabad, LM3 p752]



It is very interesting that Meher Baba, back in August of 1925,

stated that "Mankind will soon become aware of the true life of

Jesus." Other people from the East, such as Dr. Fida Hassnain,

Basharat Saleem, Shirdi Sai Baba, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, all have made

similiar statements.

BEING A VEGETARIAN and AHIMSA.

BEING A VEGETARIAN and AHIMSA.

This is written not to condemn meat eaters but more to explain why some are vegetarians. (Sometime back I heard on the news, that the U.K. had banned experiments on animals for cosmetics reasons. They have also banned some medical experiments that are considered unnecessary, especially those that are just done for money, like unnecessary research. At least that is a start!

However my pleasure was short lived, for whilst channel surfing, I came across a piece on T.V. that made me sit up. It was about a system where they can take a fish, partially gut it, scale it, dip it in batter and fry part of it, whilst all the time keeping it ALIVE!I t was then served up on the table with sauce, whilst the eating parties dug in with chopsticks. The family's children ran from the table for the fish was obviously alive and suffering, opening and closing its mouth. Or we have the skinning of seal cubs while still alive, the boiling of shell-fish while still alive and many other violent acts. This doesn’t include the horrors of the slaughterhouses.

All violence of any kind should be avoided except for self defence. That means in thought, word, and deed .Even making too much noise should be avoided. Humans are human animals ,aspiring human beings, human beings, and Divine Humans. Intelligence has nothing to do with it. For it has to do with the level of awareness and purification of the awareness sheath or vijnanamayakosa. A completely purified vijnanamayakosa is the sheath that a Jnani uses to relate to the world. To the human animal eating meat is probably part of it’s self developed condition .For spiritual seekers though, aspiring human beings, eating meat is a no-no and that includes fish. Swami Yogananda did say however that unfertilised eggs are alright to eat, if you really have to, free range that is. Ghandiji did eat eggs, when he was ill. Wearing leather is again debatable, for if the animal died for food the leather is something superflous. On the other hand fur is different, for the animal is killed for its skin alone. It is all in the motive, it is in the mind. We can only do the best we can and most like to do things gradually rather than not at all.

Vegetarianism for Spiritual Seekers is not primarily for reasons of health but for Spirituality. It is really a belief in Ahimsa or non-violence that is the motivating cause.

For example eating meat means accepting blame and bad Karma, probably for many lifetimes, for killing an animal and the associated suffering. It is not our Dharma to eat meat and we have caused pain and terror to the animal. Also we have sent billions of animals to the subtle plane. Many of these animals are reincarnated as humans and carry with them the resentment of their treatment and death in the slaughterhouses. This adds to bad vibrations on the planet and subsequent massacres and killings, as in Ruanda etc. Violence can be intrinsic, like banging a book down on a table, cutting down trees un-necessarily or even thinking bad thoughts.

Meat eating is a habit like smoking, drug addiction or alcoholism and it can be broken the same way; Pray, surrender to The Divine and stop. Some people may have to do it progressively; however this may only prolong the bad karma involved.

The advantages of being a vegetarian are many, apart from the effect on our health. When we eat meat we absorb animal vibrations into our own mind and body, making it more difficult to advance spiritually.

Many argue that we need meat for proteins. The humble soya can supply most dietary needs contained in meat. It takes 4 kg of fish meal to produce every 1 kg of farmed salmon. Also it takes 8kg of grain to produce 1/2kg of beef; a waste of food resources on a hungry planet .At the present time 3%-6% of North Americans and 15% of British are vegetarians. The Indian percentage would be much higher no doubt.

Meat eating leads to rajasic and tamasic tendencies but a sathwic diet consisting of vegetables, except not too many, onions, garlic chillies etc, will be conducive to a peaceful mind.

As Dr. Albert Schweitzer tells us:

"I cannot but have reverence for all that is called life. I cannot avoid compassion for everything that is called life. That is the beginning of morality. Once a man has experienced it and continues to do so he/she is ethical. He carries morality within him/her and can never lose it, for it continues to develop within him. He who has never experienced this has only a set of superficial principles.

These theories have no root in him, they do not belong to him, and they fall off him......Reverence for life comprises the whole ethic of love in its deepest and highest sense. It is the source of constant renewal for the individual and for mankind.(Respect for life is compassion, which is a prerequisite for understanding.)

(Scheitzer pp 116-177) (1)

Ghandiji said; "Cow protection is to me one of the most wonderful phenomena in human evolution. It takes the human being beyond his species. The cow to me means the entire subhuman world. Man through the cow is enjoined to realise his identity with all that lives...She is the mother to millions of Indian (and others), mankind.



We should cultivate certain desirable practices. For instance we should regulate our diet, because one’s food influences one’s thoughts. Eating animal food promotes animal tendencies. Those who take to the spiritual path should avoid as much as possible bad practices. There is no meaning in professing to respect human values without observing the rule that you should cause NO HARM to others in any form whatsoever."

.

"And God said, Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for MEAT!" Genesis 1:29. Many terms in the Bible have been mistranslated, for whatever reason. The word food has been translated as meat and as flesh even, this is to give the impression that Jesus was a meat eater. It’s interesting that in Scotland today the word meat can mean food generally, not just animal flesh. Also the word for wine mostly means unfermented grape-juice, or Must, which was what the Essenes used

"Thou shall not kill"....Bible, Ten Commandments. lo tirtzach—not kill anything.

"He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man".....Isaiah 66:3

The first of Buddhism’s Ten Precepts is, "Refrain from destroying life."

The Mahabharata, warns "Those who kill and eat cows will rot in hell for as many years as there are hairs on the slaughtered cow, "and "What greater cruelty and selfishness than to increase the flesh of one’s body by eating the flesh of innocent creatures?"

I don’t know whether you can take the Mahabharata literally but the inference is there.

If one can grasp that "all is one", then harming a being that can feel pain is harming oneself. As seekers on the spiritual path, we should avoid being responsible for other’s pain, animal or not.

. On another note, what kind of insensitivity and lack of conscious awareness, or rather conscience, allows an animal to suffer for an unholy human desire, that one hasn’t the courage or willpower to overcome. One is reduced to a state less than the animal, for even an animal keeps it’s desires in season. This was my thought about myself and I couldn’t live with that, and that is why, after reading Maxims, "in the back of a book on Hindu Spirituality," I became a vegetarian immediately. Sakti also gave me a dream, where I experienced being a cow that was led to slaughter.

The morning that I gave up eating meat I had a dream that was the
catalyst. I was visiting some family members in Sydney and I was on
Bondi Beach, I like surfing. I ate a hamburger and then fell asleep
on the beach during which time, I was given a dream. In this dream I
was actually a cow or steer or whatever, bovine anyway.
I was in the slaughterhouse, and was terrified by the cries of the
other animals waiting to go up before the human killer. The stench of blood and faeces assailed by rather large nostrils and my eyes
rolled in utter panic and fear in my head. I looked around for
someone I knew but I was alone amongst all these terrified
animals.My panic grew as I was forced between a row of gates and
down a slippy path full of blood, faeces and urine. I hesitated and
was prodded with an electric prod to make me move forward into this
tight space. Eventually I was in a kind of giant manacle which held
my head for the human killer. I was terrified and so were all the
other cattle for we knew, yes we knew.
At his point I awoke on the beach repeating 'My God they know', they
know they are going to be killed so cruelly. At that point I
resolved never to be an accomplice to the greatest holocaust of all
time, and I became a vegetarian. I'm a slow learner you see!!
There are no excuses or alibis, religious or otherwise, for "spiritual seekers, "to be meat eaters; it is also injurious to health, check out "mad cow disease or hamburger disease, or chicken flu. If you eat meat you will get animal diseases."

However as a last note, if one is a vegetarian one shouldn’t be smug about our meat eating brother or sister. I am not claiming to be a superior being and no doubt have as many desires as the next person. However I have overcome eating meat with Sakti’s Grace. You can too, if you are still a meat-eater. However you must have the belief and desire to do so, many people see nothing wrong at all in eating meat, it is their choice.

"Ananyaaschinthayantho Maam Ye Janaah Paryupaasathe Theshaam Nithyaabhiyukthaanaam Yogakshemam Vahamyaham."

"Whoever surrenders to The Lord, The Lord will take on his/her yogakshemam and provide for him/her." The Gita.9:22.

"

,
"The great sage Yagnavalkya ,in his Yagnavalkyasmiti stated that
three ghastly crimes are committed by slaughtering animals for the
sake of eating their flesh.

These are :
(1)the taking of innocent life;

(2)the infliction of pain on the innocent animal during the process
of killing it;and

(3)the crime of depriving the animal of its strength through
slaughtering it.

Punishment for all three crimes entails twenty rebirths
characterised by premature and painful death in the first;

pain ,suffering and unhappiness,including family feuds,anxiety and
tensions in the second;

poor health in which the life of the person concerned will be wasted
away,in the third."

INDIRA RADHAN. MAY 1996.

Thought itself is the problem, the impediment.

Thought itself is the problem, the impediment. One has to separate thought from mind/ego. Stop the ego stringing thoughts along the sutra of the ego. Breath control can help as it controls the prana. Meditating on one thought can open the door to beyond functional thought. Never mind worrying about 'mind awareness' and being in the 'mind now', go right to the source. Use the juncture of nose and lip concentrate there as thoughts arise dismiss them.This gives you the insight to the unreality of thought, but you are stripping the ego and it will react to protect itself. The ego will not always pretend to be non existent and give an illusion of non duality.It has to be occupied so one can use exercises like Japa, so the monkey mind is trapped.. As monkeys are caught with pots that once the put their hand into, to get the treat, they are caught. Why because like the mind the monkey won't let go of the treat so is trapped by its own desire or vasana..Eventually the mind will be trained and that is the door to NirVikalpa Samadhi. However the gap between Kevala Nirvikalpa and Sahaja Nirvikalpa/Moksha is huge. Somewhat getting to a stage where you know what a king is and have even put on the crown temporarily but that doesn't make you a king.

The knowledge now flows back in the reverse direction-through the levels of the mind, becoming Vidya Knowledge or Prajna helping to purify and cleanse the vasanas and desire/drives until one moves from Kevala to Sahaja.

by Tony O'Clery on Wednesday, April 6, 2011 at 7:09am

The thief in the palace pretending to be the policeman, develops complete theories and dissertations that deny its own existence. For it feels worthwhile and its existence is validated, for it is the sutra that all non dual thoughts and ideas are strung on. It an even create a space of 'no thought' but it is observing itself quietly. Reverting back to the original illusory ego before thoughts were strung on it. It is close like deep sleep, which is actually a continuous thought of nothing. An apparent empty non dual space that to the uninitiated appears to be 'realisation' or the space between thoughts. Beyond deep sleep a true silence lies, but the sutra is lying there.not the true silence but...the ahamkara/ego...It is not true silence and loves the coarse sound of speech and words for then people cannot see the forest for the trees...............

We are looking for love in all the wrong places....like looking for lost glasses which all the time are on our heads..The human simian due to the distorted ego looks only for pleasure and validation of its existence..All have a love as that is what we are but it is veiled by desires, desire for pleasure in all forms...The animal looks for what it needs the human looks for what it doesn't need...We look for love in our children, wives, families and friends but we are competing with their own egos looking for pleasure also...all human love is conditional....even helping others is for oneself...for the ego gets pleasure from helping, and validation of its illusory existence.. Love is within,,,we can touch it through meditation..it is not outside for all love outside is tainted with the ego seeking pleasure....This why Bhakti is a more simpler path than Jnana or wisdom, as it projects the need on to a 'godform' that is outside but eventually becomes inside so to speak...We can only get transitory attachments outside as the other egos are also looking for love objectively, the ego looking for pleasure...It is hard for people new on the path especially to accept that most of the love they give and accept is really mostly attachment and seeking for pleasure.. Once we make the decision not to look for pleasure but to look within for Love...we are on the right track to real Love...

Verbal non dualists and the ego

Verbal non dualists and the ego...You're so vain you probably think this post is about you....

The thief in the palace pretending to be the policeman, develops complete theories and dissertations that deny its own existence. For it feels worthwhile and its existence is validated, for it is the sutra that all non dual thoughts and ideas are strung on. It an even create a space of 'no thought' but it is observing itself quietly. Reverting back to the original illusory ego before thoughts were strung on it. It is close like deep sleep, which is actually a continuous thought of nothing. An apparent empty non dual space that to the uninitiated appears to be 'realisation' or the space between thoughts. Beyond deep sleep a true silence lies, but the sutra is lying there.not the true silence but...the ahamkara/ego...It is not true silence and loves the coarse sound of speech and words for then people cannot see the forest for the trees...............

WEst versus east and how the greeks screwed up

WEst versus east and how the greeks screwed up.

Verbal Non dualists and neo advs are hooked into the Mind in a western way, as that is what they know...Blame the latter day ancient Greek philosophers that put so much importance to the mind, which to this day is the foundation of Western thought...In the East the mind is something to be discounted and is regarded as THE impediment, not something to be extolled but to be used as a thorn to remove a thorn. This is why these western non dualists work on integrating and balancing the mind.....and this is popular and possible for those who cannot imagine no mind....So they end up with a non dual mind but not liberation as that is beyond the mind....all they have is the thief pretending to be a policeman. The level of non duality they reach is not liberation and is false and deceiving and only leads to rebirth....



This is so ingrained in Western thought that it is impossible for neo advaitins and vndists or verbal non dualists...to proceed..As they do not take to sadhana and the removal of vasanas ......So they are caught on a cycle as they are not aware of where they are at and that drives, desires as vasanas are subconscious. It necessary to do some practise or sadhana to the lower mind...and subconscious can be purified............For if the mind is an orange then the daily mind and conscious mind are only the shine on the outside of the orange not even the skin...

This is why if you look on FB you will see many younger people caught up as vndists...as it is instant gratification, no digging is required and they have a mind that can start talking and expounding immediately.



The reason many true gurus or Sadgurus or Jnanis..use silence it to by-pass the mind, and use the more subtle. Humans have developed frontal lobes which are for speech and act as a hard drive to divert the mind to the material and daily modern life. Then words become the binary numbers of the frontal lobes and the circle goes on.
