    How to Realize Perfection in Your Meditations

    Wednesday, January 23, 2013, 7:19 PM [General]

    "There is the natural happening
    of this moment.

    You are not doing this moment.
    You are not making this moment
    happen.

    It is just a happening.

    In meditation,
    if you let go of trying
    to control this moment
    and simply notice,
    you will see this
    natural happening of everything.

    Thoughts arise, feelings arise,
    physical happenings arise.
    They all come and go on their own.

    They all happen as a natural occurrence
    according to their own nature
    and the totality of nature itself.

    But then the analytical mind
    tries to make it unnatural.

    A feeling arises the analytical mind
    judges as wrong and it tries to change it,
    tries to justify it, place importance on it,
    tries to push it away or obsess over it.

    Out of politeness, greed, fear, attachment
    or judgment, that natural happening
    gets repressed or manipulated.

    And in that there is a separation
    from what is naturally happening.
    That sense of being a person
    separate from everything else is created
    and there is conflict.

    In the act of separation
    there is always conflict.

    And so the questions come in
    about how to experience something
    different than what you are experiencing now.
    How to think something different,
    feel something different because
    the mind knows for sure
    that your experience is wrong.

    But that is like asking the sun not to shine,
    the rain not to fall,
    the wind not to blow.

    It is all a natural happening.
    There is no difference to the outer weather
    and your inner weather.

    And if you can simply allow,
    accept and observe
    this natural happening in meditation,
    allowing everything to pass by,
    then you will fall into
    the perfection of this moment.

    Your life will flow as
    the perfection of this moment.

    There is no flaw in it.
    What one would call a flaw
    is just the natural flow of bliss in this moment.

    Why give any importance to what
    the mind arrogantly thinks this moment
    should be like?

    It is a happening.

    And if you learn to be
    fully attentive to this happening,
    in tune with this happening,
    surrendered in this happening,
    to live every moment in this happening,
    then you will experience true perfection.

    Not perfection in the sense
    of some obsessively controlled experience
    but rather the essential divine blissful nature
    that is manifesting freely as the natural
    happening of this moment.

    I am not suggesting
    adding an idea of perfection
    on top of what is here
    but rather discovering the true
    nature of this moment
    through honesty and awareness
    and living in that.

    Much love,


    Kip"
