    The Essence of Self Realization

    Tuesday, July 24, 2012, 11:11 PM [General]

    "If you ask most people
    how they are,
    they will look
    at a collection of memories
    from the last day, last week or last month
    and then make a judgment
    about those memories.

    And that will be their answer
    to how they are.

    With this, you can see that
    most people are carrying
    their past around with them.

    Not even their past,
    but a selection of memories
    from their past.

    They are not aware
    of how they are now,
    they only superimpose
    these memories on to this moment
    and that is who they experience
    themselves to be.

    But if you really look
    to your experience in this moment
    without referring to your memories,
    you would be at a loss
    to really say anything.

    You would fall right through
    any definitions and descriptions
    and enter into that which is completely
    transcendent of everything.

    That what is really here
    is always here,
    always pure
    and always free.

    So there are two levels of experience
    we are talking about.

    The first level is of the mind
    in which you exist in a linear
    time based experience as a collection
    of memories and judgments.

    And through spiritual practice,
    you purify all of your attachments
    and identification to this
    mind based experience
    in order to reach transcendence.

    But on the other level,
    which is not really a level at all,
    there is the pure state of transcendence,
    which is free of everything,
    which is even free of all spiritual ideas
    and spiritual experiences.

    You can't even call it the Self
    or consciousness.
    You can't hold on to it
    or abide in it.
    You can't even separate it
    from anything else.

    You can't say anything about it,
    except that it is
    completely free of everything.

    It is not even under the condition
    of any purification or spiritual practice
    because it is free of that too.

    It is wordless, limitless
    and forever self apparent,
    beyond cause and effect.

    And it cannot be perceived
    or realized from the first level
    of mind experience.

    But somehow usually after a lot of
    Shakti, meditation & spiritual practice,
    something magically happens
    where that which is
    completely transcendent of everything
    reveals itself.

    It is not something
    you can hold on to,
    or attain,
    but rather
    you fall into it
    and learn to remain
    in a permanent state of letting go
    where you realize this
    pure transcendence in everything,

    including the mind,
    including memory
    even including the sense of
    being a person.

    It is free of everything
    but it exists in and as everything.
    So you exist just as you are now
    yet completely free of it at the same time.

    Blessings,


    Kip"
