"There are so many teachings
about how to be happy.

So many teachings
on how to get rid
of your sadness, your anger
how to be successful
and confident.

How to love yourself,
how to think positive.

Basically how to mould yourself
into this perfect spiritually correct person
with the plastic smile
and the 5000 friends of facebook.

And it's all nonsense.

All these quotes
that people pass around
to psyche each other up
are only make believe.

They take you further away
from what is here.

How freeing it is
to be naked and alone
with all of your imperfections,
with all of your lacking,
desires and fears
and not have to do anything about it.

Even to say
'I accept myself as I am'
you miss it.

You've grabbed hold
of another idea
and made it you.

Because the unfathomable peace and love
that envelopes you completely
is not something you paint on
as a mask.

It is not something that you can
think your way into
that you can attain and accomplish.

But rather it is what you are
underneath it all.

It's not even underneath,
it's everywhere
but still it is hidden from the mind;
it is hidden from those that are still
holding on to a certain idea of themselves.

So what must happen
is the egg must be cracked open.

You must let yourself
fall into what ever is here
and keep falling.

You must allow yourself
to be broken in this moment
so that you immerse yourself
in what is behind it all.

Even the words
must be tossed away.
All revelations and knowledge
that somehow have been made into
a spiritual accomplishment must go.

All that is left is beyond words,
beyond the mind.

You break free of this
individual you
which really is a prison
and you experience
what is beyond it,
you are immersed in what is beyond it.

And what is beyond it?

Infinite love, peace, bliss, freedom.
Even these words cannot define it.

They make it sound
like an escape or a drug
and it is the opposite of that,
it is life that you awaken to.

You break free of this illusion
of who you have held on to for so long
and suddenly it just opens up into vastness.

The realization of the infinite.

And then you live
as your silly imperfect self
while feeling the vastness
that animates it.

Meditation, spiritual practice
immersing yourself
in the enlightened presence
of a Guru or The Calling/Ocean Euphoric CDs,
all of these things can move you into
the ultimate truth.

But all of these hopeful quotes
that promise wealth, happiness
and prince charming
only keep you unaware.

Hopelessness
is the greatest gift.

Because when you realize
how alone you are
how hopeless you are

then automatically
your attention is turned
towards that which is beyond yourself
and you awaken to what
you have been looking for
all along.

"If you practice meditation,
if you practice being present,

then you probably have found
that there is this incessant urge
for your attention
to leave this moment
into outward things.

Whether it be in the form
of desire, worry
memories or knowledge,

underneath whatever thought is there
is this intense driving force
to take you out of this moment.

And so meditation
can end up being a conflict
between being present
and being taken out of the present.

You pull yourself back
into this moment
and then you are pulled out again.

You try and force yourself
to stay present but somehow
something grabs your attention
and takes you out.

And so what is supposed to be peaceful
feels more like repression,
seems more like a fight
for control
between being present
and the urge to seek outside
of this moment.

And you end up trying
to do meditation.
The mind trys to meditate
rather meditation simply happening.

But if you can recognize this force
that pulls you out,

not the particular thoughts
but the force behind the thoughts.

If you can be aware of this force
and allow it without attaching yourself to it,
you can move beyond this conflict.

You do not force yourself
to stay in one place,
you see your natural state
is being here.

You recognize the constant movement
that flows out of this moment
while resting as the moment.

It can feel funny at first.
Because you cannot be you
in this awareness.

The individual you is not there.
You remain only as consciousness,
only as awareness
as presence
completely free of yourself.

What is important to see
is that being present
is not a state,
it is not something you enter into,
it is naturally what you are
at your essence.

Really what I am pointing to
is stillness.

You are not being still,
you are resting as stillness,
at the deepest space of rest
while allowing and witnessing
the constant movement
that is arising out of this moment.

In this way
you can enter samadhi.

"There is a constant flow
of energy in life.

A large part of awareness
is about observing this flow of energy.

You meditate enough
with the CDs
or with an enlightened teacher
and you will begin to notice
a constant flow of energy.

Perhaps at first
as something inside you.
But then you experience
this constant flow of energy
as you and everything.

And simply by watching this flow,
you learn meditation,
you learn awareness.

It guides you.

You notice
if you try and control a situation,
this flow of energy is repressed
and aggression begins to build.

You notice
when your attention
gets lost in something outward,
such as a desire or a fear
the energy dissipates
and the sense of separation
and stress increases.

You notice when
you are completely still
and surrendered in the moment,
the energy flows freely.

And when you immerse yourself
completely into energy itself,
there is tremendous bliss.

It's pretty much common sense.

Not something you need to figure out.
If this energy has been awakened in you,
then all you really need to do
is pay attention to it.

There are no decisions
to be made, no figuring out.
The energy is flowing
and you allow that to happen.

And from this energy
everything is taken care of,
amazing creativity and wisdom
arises.

Life no longer seems linear
but rather life is eternally shining out
of this very moment.

It is a beautiful thing
if you willingly give it
your attention.

You experience the one essence
of life in all objects
rather than objects as something
separate from life.

"Meditation
is not about
building yourself up
or trying to be a certain way.

It is not about becoming
a peaceful person
or a wise person
or even an enlightened person.

In meditation
you simply become aware
of what is here.

You turn your focus
back upon yourself
and notice what presents itself.

If you do this,
the ego structure
begins to be peeled away.

Behind all the desires,
distractions, opinions,
beliefs, worries
and emotions.

Behind everything
that the mind has built
upon itself
in order to feel important
and in control
is something
overwhelmingly tender
and vulnerable.

Even painful.

A sense of being
very small and alone
and all of the fear
and helplessness
that goes with it.

And by survival instinct,
you don't want to feel it,
you don't want to see it.

The very drive of the ego
is to get as far away
from this vulnerability as possible.

You want to fit in
or at least stand out.

Nobody wants to be a nobody.

But if you can allow yourself
to feel it.

If you can surrender and
allow yourself to be that small
helpless nobody.

If you allow it all to be as it is
at the very core,
then you fall into the essence
which is behind it.

You become immersed
in what is behind it.

And that is love,
that is peace.

You do not have love and peace
as though it was an object to attain,
you dissolve into it.

It bubbles up
from your essence
and spills into
every level of your being
because you have let go
of the very idea of
trying to be a someone.

"There is a direct method
to self realization.

And that is to close your eyes
and notice what is here
beyond all thinking.

Beyond any thought
there is a subtle experience
of existing.

You can feel it.

If you give your complete focus
to this feeling of existing
then this feeling expands
very quickly.

Infinite consciousness
that seems asleep inside of you
awakens very quickly.

But what happens is thinking
pulls you out of it.

So many thoughts arise
to grab your attention
and bring you back into
thought identification.

The mind wants you to remain
identified with thoughts.

Your attention to your thinking
empowers the mind,
it is its food.

So in order to have your complete
focus on the sensation of existing,
it is necessary drop every thought
that arises like its a hot potato.

With intense focus,
you ignore the thoughts,
your attention is completely
turned away from thinking.

This is not a technique
where witnessing thoughts works
because even that requires a certain
amount of attention on thinking.

So intense is your focus on
what is here beyond the mind,
that thoughts may not even arise.

It requires great intensity
because by reflex, you will
want to identify with the thoughts.

Just like an alcoholic wants a drink:
one drink and all the discomfort will go away.
Same with thinking.
Just let your focus fall back into thinking
and all the discomfort and intensity
will go away.

Because it can be uncomfortable,
it can be very intense going completely
beyond the mind.
And there is a certain pleasure
in being lost in thought.

But the more you practice,
the more it can become passive,
the more you can relax
into what is beyond the mind.

But it is very easy to turn this into mind.
To call this feeling of existing
beyond thinking 'the self'
and then it becomes
another experience of the mind,
something that you now have defined
as an experience and have along
with every other experience.

So it does require great intensity,
great focus to keep turning away
from thinking into
what is here beyond thought
and remaining in what is beyond thought.

To even say remaining does not cut it,
because it is not a place
where you can remain,
it is not a thing or a place
rather it is the absence of things and places,
the absence of everything known,
eternally fresh and new.

And through intense practice you realize
this absence is the light of bliss,
you become a light bulb of bliss.

Very quickly it can happen this way
for one who has the discipline.

Blessings,


Kip"
