As far as the search for truth is concerned, 98% of our thinking is rubbish. The remaining 2% is garbage.
Throw it all out and be empty!
Truth cannot be caught by intellect alone - grace is needed.

What is here?
Don't go into any direction now, because in any direction you go, the world is there and you say: ‘No, I don’t want to go there, I am already coming from there.’
Don't do anything now.
It is not a doing.
You have been doing enough already.
You are here. Simply abandon all intentions and remain quiet.
And don't go into your head.
Don't let him trouble you.
You have passed him now.
‘Stuck’ is only something to do with your mind.
There is something that can never be stuck.
It doesn't know this word or concept.
It can never go anywhere.
It's earlier than any concept
and it is timeless.
The waking state does not touch it.
The dream state does not effect it.
The deep sleep state does not alter it.
It is you, your real nature and being.
And It does not have to appear with the sound of trumpets.
It does not have to come on a sunny day.
It cannot leave, because it did not come.
It is timelessly here.
This, It is revealing.
It is revealed.
It is revealing itself to itself in the form of pure Being.
Know, you are This.

If the meditator or the identity that is meditating is observable, what observes it?...and the answer I don't want...allow the question some space to happen...and to open up in you...don't say the answer...experience your findings..
I am the awareness. Everything else is a tourist. Every thought, every emotion, is only a tourist. I am not a hotel for these thoughts. Let them come and go.
Every person offers a little reflection of the Self, but the Sage is like a huge mirror in whose compassionate presence the dissharmonious is seen. Many avoid this mirroring, but those who continue to look, come to see the face of God.
I don't want to tell people to be happy. I just want to tell 'You are Love'. I don't want to say to celebrate life even. I'm just Here and it's enough. My 'here' is enough. I'm happy inside my heart.
Let the mind come, but don't `have’ a mind. Mind helps you to exercise your wisdom, your own power of discernment to stay as you are and not divide yourself. When this is appreciated, you will stop fearing the mind. Gradually, as understanding deepens to reveal the Self as one's own reality, the mind becomes a friend and servant.
In the beingness itself there is no anxiety or waiting.
No waiting, no anticipating, no next.
Recognize the Self that is not on the way to becoming another state.
It is stateless. It simply Is.
It is not the thinking mind.
Recognize the difference between thought and Self.
Thought is more like the wind that moves about,
but Self is like space which is present everywhere and doesn't move about.
Space has no opinion about thought.
Thoughts cannot crash into space for space is formless.
Recognise, acknowledge and be one with the space which Is.
This is natural for you.
It doesn't matter what the mind says about that.
It may say: ‘There is no value in simply being.
There is only value in becoming’.
And by accepting this, it will rob you of your inherent peace and silence.
To be the Self is not a state of laziness.
It is to be in natural harmony.
Keep the attention here in the silence of being.
And at the same time you can notice that your activities don't suffer from your attention being in being.
The invitation here is to go completely through the forest of mind into the pure recognition of what is timeless and perfect.
This is completely possible here.
Don't be afraid.
Whenever a human being has done this, however long ago that is, the rest of the world cannot forget them.
The impact of their presence brings light to uncountable beings.
That presence, I am speaking about is your own true Self.
Nobody is more close to it to another,
or too far from it.
These are mere ideas.
Wake up to what you can never not be.
Seize your chance.
Come.
No waiting, no anticipating, no next.

Every thought, every emotion is only a tourist... and I am not a Hotel. Let them come and go.
I am not from the past. I am not from the future. I am not from the now. I am timelessly here as what is - unborn Awareness.
The more troublesome the world looks, the more you have to look inside to find out where the world comes from and the one who sees it.
As long as the body is existing, there will continue to be a kind of maturing taking place, becoming deeper and deeper, and purer and purer, against a background of unchanging awareness. You can only contemplate and keep contemplating, because in your contemplation you'll find, 'I'm here'. And whatever will happen, next, you're not concerned about.
Step into my hut.
You will enter as you are,
but you must come out the other end without ‘you’
for this is not your true Self.
You have been living only in the idea of yourself and this is not freedom; not truth.
You don’t need to have much time for what you must discover is timeless.
Find that which doesn’t require time.
Nothing to practise.
Somehow, you must find the magic to drop yourself.
Only those who do, discover their timeless and perfect Self.

My love, leave aside all this fruitless thinking and come lay down here in the silence of being. I am inside your Heart and you are inside my Heart as Truth Itself playing as Love and Joy.
Mind says, "how?"
Heart says, "Now"
Heart says, "Now"
God has put inside you the urge to go all the way.
The ‘all the way’ that has no distance.
It's a journey of subtlety, not of miles or kilometers.
The power is here inside you,
but if you keep relying your head, you miss it.
Your mind wants to understand this, but it cannot understand this. It can only fall in love with it.
There is something here that is not ‘next’.
And it will never be next.
Next will surely pass.
Find that thing that doesn't pass.
It is here inside the room of your own heart.
Be there.
That's all.

Ripeness is an idea. If you cling to it as an idea it will choke you. It will keep you seeking for more ripeness. You are beyond ripe and beyond ready. What I am really pointing to is what you already are, not what you should become.
Actually, being what you are is the simplest. What is difficult is to stop being what you are not. Because we wish to keep hold of our attachments. Freedom is to be free of attachments and the main attachment is to the `I’-self.
Recognize the natural silence of your own Self.
Silence is not a behavior.
Silence is not a practice.
It is the natural perfume of being.
Trying to be still is not stillness.
Find that stillness inside, which simply Is.
There is no one to practice it.
It can only be recognized.
It is here.
It is not hiding.
It is not hurried.
Simply stop identifying with the past, future, present or with any self image.
Be open to being nothing.
No thing. So that internally you are simply like a space.
But this is not an inert space, but a space full of aliveness.
Still don't define yourself as aliveness.
Don't define yourself at all.
Simply remain in natural self - attention.

Leave your existence to existence, stop caring for yourself so much and let the universe care for you; it is the best mother.
A plant is not thinking: “Tomorrow I will put a new leaf to the north and then next week when it rains I will grow a metre taller”. Its existence is just unfolding out of itself spontaneously, naturally, unplanned. Similarly, your true life unfolds in the same way but you are unaware of it because you allow your mind to imagine fanciful ways of being and then pursue your projections. Like this, you began thinking and strategising your existence rather than simply experiencing your natural being.
We cannot breathe tomorrows breath today. Therefore, knowing this, leave your existence to existence and start enjoying your cosmic play. Best of all, don't try to be anything at all. This is a secret few recognise.

When this body is your incense, your mind becomes your fragrance.
Only Now Is, and you are That. Stay as That. There cannot be any memory in now, for memory is past, not Now. There cannot be a history of Now, for Now is fresh. It has no fragrance, and no 'one' to smell it. Stay as Now beyond any concept of Now, and any concept of staying.
And such discussions really are a joy in the being. We can surf. You can come to unending joy because one of the highest pleasures of the being is to contemplate itself in order to taste its own majesty. I don’t see what else to do. So enjoy it! Enjoy self-discovering. But higher than self-discovering is the joy of being. Either the divine pursuit or just it resting in itself.
I cannot be what I used to say I am. I just cannot be that, not because I have trained myself to become something else, but because I stopped becoming and was left simply to be what I truly Am - mySelf. You understand?
I love you too much to treat you as a person.
