Where could you go
Where I would not be?
Where can an I go
Where you are not with me
In each new hello
Is an echoed good-bye
But good-bye never happens.

Running On Empty
Everything that you have ever experienced, will experience and presently are experiencing has a Source and this Source is always the same Source regardless of what the experience is.
The experiences are many, far more than we can imagine, yet the Source of each and every one of them is exactly the same.
This Source is in itself totally absent of any experience. It is Empty.
This Emptiness is the only One that is capable of experience. When this Source is known one IS it.
YOU are THIS.
You and I ARE, and all that exists IS this Emptiness.Everything is " Running On Empty."

Feeling the fear
There is nothing wrong with being afraid but if we give into it we desensitise the body and suffer. Fear can be used to enliven the body and bring focus to the mind, when this is clear we can welcome it in the knowledge that we benefit from it.
We are in very strange times now and anyone who does not feel fear is either enlightened or has a mental problem, I am not sure which in my case LOL.
What I have been talking about for years now is happening and if we can face this and not try to hide in the hope that it will go away it can change for the better, we will all come out of it stronger in ourselves. If we are able to be open and allow the impact of information to be felt it will lead us to our true self. Yes we will have to face the feelings of helplessness and hopelessness and uselessness but if these are fully felt we arrive in a place within ourselves where we are the power that creates the universe. This is where the change for the better for ALL can take place, ONLY from here. You are not alone in this as many are realising what is happening and are willing to be open without hiding and it is in this way that we can bring about change.
There are no plans or strategies that will change the present situation on this planet. Only by allowing what we see and hear etc to have its affect upon us without denying it will bring about the much needed change. “I” is the greatest power that exists and only “I” can change the dream of the world. The requirement now is that we take what is happening to face whatever arises as reaction and stay present to it until “I” is revealed, We are heading into a time of mass enlightenment, conscious awareness of the fact that we are all the same Being, it is already happening. The fear is of the one that imagines itself to exist, the ego, and that one will die in the fire of the fear leaving behind this which never dies and is never threatened, “I”.
This is our adventure.Avasa

Prior to time and space
You, who are the creator of all, have limited yourself to the concept of being in the size of a body and therefore something that is limited to the length of one lifetime.
You, who are the creator, have fallen into identification with the action of words arising as mind and cease to see that you are what knows of their arising.
Prior to time and space you are the Stillness within which they arise.

The Quest.
I cannot be touched, nor tasted or smelt.
No sound is my equal, no form will be I.
Lay to rest then the seeking of objective experience
And I will be with you in the blink of an eye.
I am here, always here as the presence eternal
Forever unknown, a mystery I be
To myself, for no other exists in this presence
You, him and her are always just me.
As I seek it is I that I seek for, not knowing
That the seeking is my action manifesting as things.
Their appearance obscures what immediately remains
When searching collapses, the moment then brings
The realization that what lies behind all the movement
Is this stillness that always, already is here.
Rested unnoticed I am the bare empty canvas
On which the light-show of life does appear.
All is just this, nothing more, nothing less,
And when my attention comes finally to rest
At its source it is seen it is I that creates
All arising as my effort to fulfill my quest.Avasa

Change
What is to be cannot be changed, nothing that is to come in the future can be changed or be other than the way that it will be. The desire to change things itself and the action of changing things cannot be other than what it is for it is what was to come.

No Separation
We live in a society that holds as its main belief the concept of separation, the idea that you and I are separate from one another. This idea has carried with it a price that has cost us a lot and will cost us everything if it continues, the death of the human race.
The whole way that we are brought up within our society by our parents and teachers, our religious figures and our goverments is based upon this idea of separation and yet there is no evidence whatsoever to substantiate this belief. We have a huge trust in science and where it is leading us and yet science itself as it gets closer to what is seeking, the Source, finds less and less proof that separation exists ANYWHERE.
Throughout the history of mankind there have been people who have stepped to the forefront of the norm of their time and challenged the accepted way of thinking. Their message in each and every case was the same — separation is not an actuality.
The cost of upholding this idea that we are separate beings is reflected in our world as the many wars that exist and the suffering at a so called personal level that is prevailant in our societies on every level. It does NOT have to be this way and in fact it can change very easily, by SEEING what we actually are behind all these beliefs.
A belief is a thought that has been identified with due to the fact that once one no longer knows one’s Self directly, it is natural to try to find one’s identity once one has lost sight of it. Beliefs are created in an attempt to find ones Self again as something permanent, something real.
All human beings, regardless, are made up of three things. A physical body, a mind and something intangable called Awareness. This is always the case if the human experience is taking place.
The first we all know as it is very clearly on display, the second we know but it is not always so clear and obvious as the former but the third, Awareness, barely gets our attention, which is somewhat strange as it is the only permanent of these three. Body and mind come and go, as in deep sleep, but the Awareness is everpresent.
Why then , we may ask ourselves, is this which is always, already present so unknown? The answer is simple. It is NOT a THING. Awareness has no form or colour or description of any sort whatsoever, yet it IS. Without this presence of Awareness there would be no ability to experience anything at all.
Clearly this Awareness is therefore of tremendous importance. It is this that we must come to know again so that it is no longer overlooked. When we overlook this Awareness we, as this Awareness, seek to find ourself by identifying with the objects that appear within it, the body and the mind. We then take ourself to be a finite THING and suffer the concequences of doing so, we create a false identity and from that we live a reality that is false.
Take a look right now at your immediate experience, Body, Mind and something that sees them appearing and ask yourself – Which of these three is permanent, which of these is the seer of the two that are seen?
YOU are the seer, the Awareness that witnesses the appearance of the body and mind. As this that sees you are No-Thing, an aware presence that is absent of thingness and therefore has no description, you just ARE. This Awareness is the same One in all human beings, the bodies and the play of the mind vary but this Awareness is the exact same One. As this Awareness again begins to include itself in on the deal of identification it becomes more and more clear that the mind and the body are the vehicles by which experience can be had but one is NOT these things. In a short time the attention naturally returns to this Awareness in between moments of habitual identification with the body/mind until there is a stabalising in this Awareness and the clear conscious realisation that one IS this.
The problem of wrong identification falls away and with it all so called personal suffering. Life then is seen in a totally different way and seen to be One with one’s Self. This is the direction that society MUST take in order for the human species to continue.
It need not be difficult because all that is necessary to bring this way of seeing into being the norm is already present. It requires only that we drop all our silly beliefs and SEE what IS. Body, mind AND this that is everpresent, the Eternal, our SELF.
This is what all those whose message was shared with the intention of removing the sense of separation pointed to. This has always been the answer, it is not Christian, Buddhist, Jewish,Islamic or any other religous name it has been given. When it was shared it was being shared directly from the One, the SAME One regardless of time or place. When you awaken to the Truth of the One that you ACTUALLY are it will be the SAME One that awakened in those whose message became the religions that have become the beliefs that now hold us back from the seeing of this Oneness. Their insistance was always that this realisation had to become your own or otherwise it remained a belief and would not serve you or mankind in any way that removed the sense of separation.
When this realsation takes place it is NOT a belief, it is Self evident and Self confirming. When you SEE the One that you truely are then you see also in that same instance that all apparent ‘others’ are no other than yourself, Love.
Love knows no separation!

Choice
In order for a choice to happen there must be activity arising as the play of mind, as the inner dialogue of words. It can be assumed that one is putting together these words but when looked into more closely it will be seen that the words, which are simply actions arising in consciousness, are appearing and then being noted to be present by the ‘me’ AFTER they have made their appearance. Clearly then ‘me’ is not the producer of these thoughts but is itself another thought that arises after the initial thought and claims that thought to be a product produced by the ‘me’, When seen clearly the ‘me’ thought is seen to be simply another thought.
As all decision making involves thinking and as all thinking is involuntary, in that each thought arises without it being pre-planned by anyone, every choice or decision is being made as an action arising in consciousness of which there is no controller.
Even the thought ” I think” or “I am the thinker, the producer, of these thoughts” is simply arising and is not actually being produced by a something or someone called ‘I’ or ‘me’.
This desire to make the ‘me’ the controller of what is arising as thought comes about when it is imagined that there is a ‘me’ as the thinker of the thoughts but when looked into it will be seen that there is thinking but no thinker. There is doing but no doer. This desire which arises is also simply arising as an action of consciousness, this too is impersonal. There is in fact no personal desire as all desire is impersonally arising, the so-called person being a belief and nothing more than that, which again is simply a thought arising.
When this fact begins to make itself obvious the imagined controller begins to lose sight of itself from time to time as the realisation that there is no personal controller in charge of anything begins to take over and the imagined controller dissolves.
This can be a strange period for it has been seen at this point that there is no producer of what is arising as the experiences of the body/mind and yet this has not yet fully established itself and so from time to time ‘me’, the imagined controller, steps back into play habitually. Eventually the claiming of what is being done simply dissolves into the no-thing-ness from which all thoughts etc have always been arising within.
What remains then is the seeing, by no-one, that all action arising, be it the action of thought or feeling or physical action is happening spontaneously. There is no prior plan, no destiny, no purpose or reason for what is taking place, all is simply happening, to no-one.
What sees what is taking place is no-thing. This no-thing is still and timeless and when an activity takes place within itself it is immediately reflected upon this inactive timelessness as an activity of time and hence recognised to be taking place.
There is no-one, no person, seeing any of the actions arising. They are in truth being witnessed not by a person as imagined but by the same ever-present timeless awareness wherever and whenever they arise.
This is always the case even when it is imagined that there is a something or someone seeing what is taking place. In this way when enlightenment has taken place and the imagined individual has dissolved in the clear seeing all that is actually different is that the ‘me’ is no longer present to what takes place claiming it to be a result of its presence. Things continue to take place as phenomena arising but there is no longer the concept that someone is doing any of it or that it is happening to anyone.

No separation
There does appear to be a transmission between one who has realized and one who has not but there is actually no transmission because there is no separation, no distance between them.
One is water and the other is an ice cube melting in that water only to find out eventually that it too is just that same water.”Avasa
