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



Sustaining recognition of the blissful
Awareness of pure being



Yogins and yoginis dance
in the buddhafields of pure delight



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.

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.
