 If your past and your future

Were suddenly zapped ! 

All that would remain 

Would be the totality 

Of who you truly are

Awakened presence

Awareness

Searching For Who You Are?

~ * ~

Deeper and beyond the conceptual mind

'We are, what we are', simply put


~ * ~

If I am aware of being aware

I am that awareness

When I am being fully present

I am that presence

Then I am being who I am


~ In this I am this ~

Need we be searching for something more?
The Thinker is searching in the wrong place

Lost in the maze of his conceptual reality matrix
With all the other thinkers

Awakened Presence Awareness

Being aware of being present...

We come to the end of Vereda, the trail as we have followed it...

Now, here there is only an immense expanse opening out before us...

There are no more sign-posts pointing out the ‘way’...

There are no more guiding concepts ...

No more opinions or beliefs to cling to...

No more theories or clever explanations to elaborate...

There is only this pristine awareness of having arrived...

Of being at the very epicenter of this evolving universe...

And the utter perfection of just what is...

The ineffable suchness and this presence awareness~

Clearly … you may enter any time you like...

But you will never want to leave~

The Stream of Being

To know the very essence of awakened awareness
Our immediate presence ...

We only need to enter into
the direct experience of it ...

Familiarize our selves with it
more and more …

Until our presence in this awareness
is fully established …

Profound and tranquil ...Luminously clear
A sacred space

Our authentic person-hood
Our mode of conscious living …

Our stream of being
And our life expression ~

Are you finding your direction?

Enlightened awareness ... Is a timeless dimension

Naturally occurring timeless presence

Enter here the still point
Of the turning world...TSE

Space-Time / Conscious Universe

Einstein would often say, 'the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion'. “Time is what we measure with a clock and space is what we measure with a measuring rod” he would add. 

Is he suggesting that space and time are merely conceptual conventions defined in terms of the operations by which they are measured?

The illusion here is that we reify these concepts, assuming, or firmly believing, 'they' actually exist 'out there' in the universe, independently of our conceptual formulations. 

Actually they merely serve to hold our conceptual matrix of 'reality' together. They are entirely fabricated, reified constructs without independent existence.  Check it out!

Believing in them however, is always entertaining, amusing,  even disturbingly distracting. We live our entire lives in this conceptual matrix.

Surely anyone can see the 'Space-Being' in the photo above?

What is happening 'out there' is actually happening 'in-here'. It's the continuously renewed immediacy of awareness itself:
 a knowing presence observing awareness.

The only 'time' in the intrinsic awareness of pure and total presence is now. It is always now, the ever-present ineffable experience of the suchness. This is the still point of the turning world... Where awareness is aware of being a witness, without an 'I'dentity... simply a relaxed presence.

and the elements of the manifest universe

are not two, but only one

 

You have realized relaxed presence

Let your awareness shine

 

Everything arises as pure delight

Everything passes

this immediate presence

 

Profound and tranquil

Free of complexity

 

Non-dual luminous clarity!

To Know Your Future

If you want to know your future condition

You must look into the crystal mirror! 

 Attending to the presence of awareness 

in the samaya of your daily life

This is the yoga of immediate presence

Awareness of pure being

Yogins and yoginis dance

You must discover for yourself 

that it is this, and this alone,

that manifests your destiny

Emaho!!!

A Theory of Everything

Still trying to figure it out?

Lost in conceptual ideas!

So then keep thinking,

but do not cling to thoughts.

From the yoga of presence,

stretch out into the infinite
dimension of awareness itself.

Then the Theory of Everything

will simplify to one equality!

Consciousness Is Energy

Energy Is Consciousness

Profound and tranquil, 

free of complexity.

Uncompounded, luminous clarity.

Beyond the mind of conceptual ideas

This is the depth of the mind 

of the Victorious Ones!

Parameters of TOE

The Energy that Animates the Universe

The energy that comprises all particulate matter in the universe, harmonically integrates the vibrational frequencies of these particles to form the atomic elements that make up the building blocks of the physical universe.

The energy that determines the way these particles combine also determines the physical-chemical properties of the elements formed and their valences for bonding with other elements to form the stars and the compounds that comprise the planetary bodies as well as the molecules of life itself.

This energy empowers and animates all life, plant and animal. It includes the physical-chemical and biological parameters that allow such life to synthesize and accurately replicate itself.

It is this same energy that emerges in sentient beings as consciousness and in human life as awareness. The consciousness that is realized in the enlightened mind of a buddha is this same dynamic energy of awareness. 

The fundamental law of the universe, the Theory of Everything, TOE. must therefore incorporate the dynamic of consciousness, it cannot be reduced to or derived from Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, E = MC^2. It must be expanded as E = C, where E is the total energy of the universe and C is consciousness. Where Einstein's formulation reveals the energy inherent in matter, E = C reveals the consciousness inherent in energy.

Simply put, this formulation is a theory of everything because it puts consciousness at the center, thereby including all psychological variables as well as social and cultural phenomena, artistic and literary expression, religious superstitions and even the utter madness of human  destructiveness and violence. It is not a reductionist model. It's an integral model of the universe.

A TOE that fails to integrate consciousness into the equation can never be complete because it fails to recognize the intelligence that is seeking the definitive explanation of "everything". That's us! We are that inquiring consciousness.

Enlightenment is awakening. It is becoming conscious of the presence of awareness. It is awareness that is aware of being aware. Awareness itself is the portal to this presence. This is the presence that is in harmony with and integral to the dynamic energy that animates the universe of appearances and possibilities, either of samsara or nirvana. Nirvana is merely being present in awareness.

A TOE through a portal of presence

The Dynamic Energy of Awareness

The Dynamic Energy of Awareness

Manifesting the universe of appearances and possibilities,

Objects, forms, thoughts, and emotions...

The totality of our experience

Is the manifestation of this dynamic energy.

Primordially and spontaneously present

Entailing no effort or achievement. 

It is the self-knowing awareness

Of awakeened mind itself

Total presence in this awareness is

The abode of all the buddhas of all time past,

Time present and time future.

Meditation is resting in this spacious expanse!

Sustaining recognition of the primal awareness

Of pure being

Profound and tranquil, free of complexity

Uncompounded, luminous clarity!

Beyond the mind of conceptual ideas.

This is the depth of the mind of 

The victorious ones!

The Blissful Awareness of Pure Being

 

Awareness Liberates What Awareness Illuminates

Conceptual elaboration however will trigger emotional associations leading to fixations and obsessions. This habitual cognitive activity, conditioned by all past experience, imprisons us in the diminished focus of the conceptual mind, locking us up in our own confusion. Locking us out of being purely present with what simply is in immediate awareness.

A portal to this pure and total presence is opened when awareness illuminates the fixation. What awareness illuminates awareness liberates, releasing us from our unconscious preoccupations and neurotic compulsions. 

Being duly liberated these conceptual-emotional complexes are integrated into enlightened (illuminated) understanding with compassion that leads to transcendence.

The Great Liberation

Spontaneous and free,

Entailing no effort or achievement,

 Restores awakened presence

and the blissful awareness

of pure being.

Namaste नमस्ते

NAMASTE

नमस्ते

Namaste is the yoga of shared presence in awareness.
It is when individuals acknowledge and honor the presence of  awareness in one another.

Buddhists recognize this deeper meaning of Namaste in the Anjali Mudra, signifying pure and total presence in awareness. Simply viewing this mudra will evoke awakened awareness in the receptive observer.

In the enactment of Namaste the gesture of the hands (mudra), the intonation of Namaste (mantra) and the praxis of awareness (Atiyoga) are integrated in the awakened awareness of presence that is a shared moment of pure being.

The significance of Namaste is that when recognition manifests recognition, two seemingly separate individuals are united in the conscious oneness of total presence.

In this yoga there is also a realization of the oneness of all conscious life and individuals sustaining this awareness transmit it to everyone they encounter. Receptive individuals are often introduced to total presence though this direct transmission.

May all beings awaken to the blissful awareness of pure and total presence!

Naturally occurring timeless awareness

Manifesting the universe of appearances

And possibilities, objects, forms

Thoughts and emotions

A ceaseless magical display

Where yogins and yoginis dance

In the buddhafield of pure delight

Let the sunbeam of awareness

Illuminate your awareness 

Believing What We Think

Watch Your Step Here!

Confusion rains supreme when we believe too much in anything we think.

By believing the conceptual elaborations of our experience,we mistake them for reality itself.

Yet these are merely our conditioned interpretations and as such can never capture the suchness of just what purely is. 

Being purely present with what is…here and now, in present moment awareness is the great liberation, a portal of presence.

Watch those fixations!

They will surely trip you up and take you out.
