The voice in your head…is not YOU.
This voice is rooted in society’s programming.
You are NOT your thoughts.
Thoughts appear TO You.
You are Eternally and Silently Here-Now.
Stop engaging with mind’s offerings.
Observe with passive non-reactivity.
Be the Silent Witness…

You cannot offend me, disparage me or disrespect me...
Any attempt to attack me- can only deepen the compassion I hold for you.
When you see with this level of clarity- you are free...

There will be a period of loneliness after we Awaken...
People may seem superficial or shallow.
We may lose interest in socializing.
Nobody "understands" what we have Realized.
This loneliness will pass in time, as we move from person to Presence.
Relax, you are doing fine.

To those who may need to hear one of these today:
I love you
I accept you
I forgive you
I understand you
I recognize your efforts
I sympathize with you
I set you free
I see you
I don’t know you- but I know You...and You know me too.

Relax your jaw...
It’s holding a lifetime of not saying what you feel.

It takes courage to walk the Spiritual Path…
Society will not appreciate You.
Family won’t understand You.
Friends may fall away.
Partners may leave You.
Do not let this deter You.
Mind will ask you to stop.
Have Faith.
Allow Life to move You deeper.
Nothing to fear…

Life is not tiring.
Wanting Life to be a certain way- is tiring...

The distance between What Is and what you want to be-
-is your Suffering...

Your parents didn't raise you.
The society that raised your parents- raised you...
Awakening is Realizing the Truth beneath this constructed societal identity is still Here.
5
173
544
Society isn't very accepting of Spirituality-
-because Spirituality is actually Awakening FROM the societal mind...

Do not underestimate the amount of rest you will need during your Awakening.
The body-mind is releasing lots of old energies in the form of concepts, beliefs, judgments, experiences, memories...
Be kind to your mind and body.
Sleep. Rest. Relax.
Fatigue- means you're healing.
11

478
Don’t rush your Awakening...
Don’t rush to conclude that you understand.
Don’t rush to tell others what you know.
Don’t rush to teach others.
Don’t rush to make significant changes like quitting jobs or leaving relationships.
Keep relaxing.
Keep dissolving.
Keep quiet...

"True love does not choose one person. When true love is there, you shine like a lamp. That light that you emit is for everyone in the room. If you really have love in you, everyone around you will profit- not only humans but animals, plants, and minerals.”

Nobody can actually make you angry.
They can only reveal the anger already residing within you...

I’m depressed
I have depressive thoughts
I Observe depressive thoughts
I Observe depressive thoughts coming and going
Depressive thoughts come and go- but I do not come and go
I am not my thoughts
I am not the depression
I am the Neutral Witness of depressive thoughts
I Am...

I suffered with anxiety for over 4 decades and never once did I consider my suffering to be Spiritual.
And yet, without a doubt, my Spirituality emerged out of the suffering caused by my anxiety.
Perhaps you're also missing the link between your suffering and Spirituality?

Loneliness is one of the most difficult aspects of a Spiritual Awakening…
You will feel like nobody understands.
You will tire of shallow conversations and relationships.
Follow Your Heart.
Stay Open without expecting.
Life will provide exactly what You need.
Keep going…

Some common fears during Awakening:
I will lose my personality.
I will be boring.
How will I do anything- if I'm Empty?
I feel like I'm losing control.
I feel like I'm dying.
This is mind trying to retain control.
What you are- is beyond experience.
Keep Observing and relax.

“Ordinary men hate solitude…
But the Master makes use of it, embracing his aloneness, realizing he is one with the whole universe.”

There is no "coming Home" in Spirituality.
We just Realize We had never left...

Synchronicities- are Consciousness winking at Itself...

Books on Spirituality- can help lead us to great Insights...
My three favorites:
Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind - Shunryu Suzuki
Hsin Hsin Ming, the Zen Understanding of Mind and Consciousness - Osho
I Am That - Nisargadatta Maharaj
Please feel free to share your favorites here.

My divorce was finalized yesterday...
Reflecting back- I can See how much I learned through it.
What I first saw as very negative- actually helped me to release old subconscious conditioning.
Life gives us what we need- if we’re willing to be open to what it’s offering...

The relationship that broke your heart- no longer exists.
It's not a broken relationship.
It's no longer a painful breakup.
It's a phantom of memory.
We make things out of a non-things.
Observe how mind is prolonging the story.
Consistent observation releases the suffering.

I enjoy my “ignorance” as much as my intelligence...
My anxiety taught me that “not knowing” is perfectly okay.
I don’t know what will happen.
I can’t know what will happen.
I enjoy the excitement of not knowing.
Give yourself permission to relax into each momentary unknown.

Loneliness is a symptom of a Spiritual Awakening.
It is the type of loneliness we feel when a friend passes away.
Part of us seems to be missing.
Who we thought we were- is dissolving.
Get plenty of rest...and grieve if you feel the need.
This loneliness will pass in time...

I no longer carry the weight of my Heart.
My Heart now carries Me...

The one who triggers you most-
-is your personal Buddha...

Sitting outside, simultaneously Aware of:
-a bird singing
-a breeze brushing against me
-trees swaying
-heat in the air
-my breath
-plane passing
-blueness of the sky
-sunlight on my skin
-greenness of the grass
Truth is To Be Aware of all this- without adding on the words.

"I have anxiety" creates "I don't want anxiety".
Not wanting the anxiety- fuels more anxiety, because the mind tries, but can't get rid of it.
"I Am the Awareness in which anxious thoughts are moving" takes the fuel away from mind.
Perspective counts more than we Realize...

301
It took me nearly 50 years to Realize I had no idea who I really was.
I now know that any idea the mind has of who I am- I’m not that...

305
A Spiritual Life does not necessarily need to look "spiritual" on the outside...
The lawyer who is deeply AWARE of Life- may live more in Truth than someone who burns sage or reads tarot cards...

Your entire experience is happening within your own mind.
You don't interact with anyone.
You interact with your mind's perception of them.
Your mind is creating your world.
Each mind creates its own world.
No world is True.
Only the One Witnessing all worlds...is True.
10
64
301
Holding a grudge.
Refusing an apology.
Waiting for an apology.
You've now just chosen- to extend your own suffering...
Mind feasts- on inner conflict.
2
95
299
Meditation is not gaining a quiet mind...
Meditation is unwinding the mind's need to grasp at a quiet mind.
When we relax into What Is- the mind quiets on its own...
3
67
302
Each mind is a unique world.
Nobody is ever going to see Life exactly the way we do.
Once we understand this- we stop needing to prove our point...

“Life is testing me”
Life is not a test.
Mind is a test.
When you see the mind taking the test...is the same mind that creates the test...is the same mind that grades the test...
...You, as Life, learn to put down the test.
No mind. No test. No problems...
Awakening

Not sad- Aware of sad thoughts
Not anxious- Aware of anxious thoughts
Not angry- Aware of angry thoughts
You're not just your experiencing.
You're the Awareness that sees your experience.
If every experience is Perceivable- who is this One Perceiving all of it?

Awakening is when you Realize there are galaxies shining behind your eyes...

“Do you have the patience to wait till your mud settles and the water is clear?
Can you remain unmoving till the right action arises by itself?”
~ Lao Tzu

285
In order to be rid of anxiety-
-you must befriend it.
“This is telling me to accept that Life is inherently uncertain.”
“It’s guiding me to relinquish the need to know what might happen.”
Anxiety isn’t a punishing disorder.
Anxiety is guiding us to surrender control to Life.

The mountains are your spine.
The rivers...your bloodstream.
The forests are your lungs.
All living creatures are your flesh.
Universal Consciousness is your brain.
You are not so small.
You are not so alone.
You are not so unloved.
Heart permeates All.
Remember...
12

267
If You identify as a person- Life will feel personal.
If You identify as the Universe- Life will feel Universal.
If You don’t identify at all- You will feel as though You are the Source from which Life arises.
Your Mind creates Your world.
Be careful of how You identify…

Spirituality doesn't require understanding words like Consciousness, Awareness, Awakening, Enlightenment.
The Zen teacher, Shunryu Suzuki said:
"I don’t know anything about Consciousness. I just try to teach my students how to hear the birds sing."
Just be Aware of What Is...

"If you're not busy...you're lazy".
No.
Relaxation is Your True nature.
You're always at Rest.
Life is moving.
You're the stable Witness of Life's flow.
Society sells busyness and success.
You have nothing to prove.
Stop performing.
Be Here-Now.
Observe Life.
RELAX...

Just wanted to send some love to Thich Nhat Hahn who passed away today…
He was instrumental in helping to guide me in the early stages of my Spiritual journey.

Societal success is a programming.
Spiritual success is a deprogramming.

Spirituality is the constructive deconstruction of identity...

We cleanse the body daily-
-but forget the mind...
We rarely "bathe" the mind- and wonder why it's covered in suffering.
Observation
Patience
Kindness
Acceptance
Compassion
Meditation
Mindfulness
Inquiry
Silence
Rest
Love
Shower the mind in these...

Your inner critic is not “you”.
Your inner critic- is a summation of your outer critics...
You are the Awareness of this mistaken identity.

"I don't have time for meditation"
No.
You don't Understand mediation.
Meditation is not just sitting on a cushion.
Meditation is Observation.
You can Observe ALL aspects of Life.
Being AWARE of brushing your teeth...is meditaton.
It's not hard.
Practice.
No excuses...

The Universe may have broken your "personal" relationship-
-to redirect you to the Universal Love you've always been.
Sometimes our difficulties- are what save us...

Intellectual Spiritual superiority- means you're still lost within the mind...

Whatever you're chasing-
-is what takes away your Peace.
Truth
Love
Freedom
Control
Wealth
Fame
Prestige
Relationship
Recognition
Revenge
Happiness
Security
These are actually your prisons. Let them go.
Allow Life to move you as It will.
When you need Nothing- there's Peace.
10
76
248
"I can't take this anymore"-
-is often the last thought before our initial Spiritual Awakening occurs.
It's always darkest before dawn.
We don't need to hold onto who society told us to be...

244
Loving with attachment- is not truly Love.
Signs of attachment:
Needing something back
Fearing to lose them
Feeling lost without the person
Keeping tabs on them
Questioning your trust
If you seem to be attached...it's time to go inward.
Stillness is where Love resides...
3
75
230
I no longer try to change anyone...
I accept them as they are, Love them as they are, and hold Spaciousness for who they are in that moment.
Somehow, that’s enough and is all they ever really needed...
5
45
247
A Spiritual Awakening doesn’t mean the end of difficulties.
I’ve been going through a divorce over the past 3 months after 17 years of marriage.
The key is to Be Aware and open to what Life is telling you.
The Clarity I’ve received lately about Life has been Priceless to me...
36
27
247
See your thoughts as fire.
Stand clear of them.
Keep your distance.
Don’t touch them or you will get burned.
Just Observe.
If we patiently Observe without fanning the flames-
-the fire will go out on its own.
Awareness
3
78
241
Nothing in Life should be done “in preparation for something in the future”.
Focus on each moment.
Don’t “get ready for work”.
Brush your teeth
Shower
Get dressed
Eat breakfast
Drink your coffee
Be Aware of all that you do...as you do it.
7
56
246
To quiet the mind-
-Realize “you” are not the One initiating the thoughts…
Thoughts arise- on their own.
Relax as the Awareness that Sees them come and go.
4
39
245
All Spiritual teachings are poor substitutes…for Silence.
Anything you are following will eventually become your imprisonment.
Self Realization requires a mind that is neither moving towards some goal or moving away from some difficulty.
Silence must become the Master…
20
52
245
I have no personal relationship with my thoughts...
In the same way:
Clouds pass by
Birds fly by
Cars drive by
People walk by
There's Awareness of:
Thoughts flowing by
We've been taught to identify AS the thoughts. This is not our Reality...
7
55
240
Spiritual sincerity is more powerful than Spiritual technique...
7
49
243
Peace is not achieved through any attainment.
Peace is a letting go of all needs to attain...
7

234
You don’t think…
Thoughts arise.
Period.
Thinking you are the “thinker” is just another thought arising.
There is NO thinker of thoughts.
Thoughts arise.
That’s it.
Stop there.
Stop making them personal…
8
62
239
You are NOT the voice in your head.
No thought has ever been YOU.
Your True Self…is the One Listening.
You’re Formless.
You’re Silent.
You’re the Witness.
Leave the thoughts alone.
Stop buying anything that the mind’s is trying to sell to You…
9
51
240
Emotions are energy.
If you're tired all the time- check your emotions.
The inability to allow emotions to SUBSIDE means we're always churning through lots of our energy.
Stop, sit with and feel the emotions held in the body.
Let them express themselves- and then let them go.
5
59
235
I began to meditate.
I began with a constant inner dialogue.
I began to see thoughts coming and going- but I did not come or go.
I began resting as the Observer of thoughts.
I began to have gaps of silence.
I began to fade into Silence.
I began to see- I am not this mind...
2
61
229
The voice in your head is not “yours”.
That voice is the voice of everyone and everything you’ve encountered in Life.
Why do you give Your authority away?
Your True Self- is a Silent Intuitiveness existing prior to the conditioned mind.
Abandon the program.
Move intuitively.
11
48
235
Thoughts come and go.
Feelings come and go.
Emotions come and go.
Sensations come and go.
You, however, neither come nor go.
Nothing experienced- is actually YOU.
YOU are the Silent Witness of all comings and goings.
You are the Formless, Eternal Awareness of Here-Now…

A Spiritual Awakening can be ugly, messy, painful, scary...
Keep going.
There will be no regrets- once you're "through it".

“Awakening is not changing who you are- but discarding who you are not.”
~ Deepak Chopra

46
231
Sometimes what destroys us- actually does make us stronger.
Spiritual Awakening is a destructive unfolding of our personal identity.
I Am at my strongest because I am undefinable- and therefore cannot be broken apart...
1
56
226
Spirituality is VERY paradoxical.
The obstacle is the path.
The path is the obstacle.
What we're looking for- is where we're looking from.
The one who begins a spiritual journey- does not finish it.
We must come to "look" counterintuitively.
"Making sense" isn't important.

219
“Stop leaving and you will arrive.
Stop searching and you will see.
Stop running away and you will be found.”
~ Lao Tzu

51
226
Meditation is like “drinking to forget” without the negative side affects...
If you’re suffering in Life- find your way to meditation.
Patience and consistency are key.

59
220
Unhappiness is birthed when mind expects Life to be other than It Is.
Life is never other than It Is…
Can you turn away from the compulsion to improve- and just relax into the Awareness of What Is?

225
“Enlightenment is not an altered state of consciousness...
…it’s coming out of an altered state of consciousness.”
~ Adyashanti
8
53
223
When we Spiritually Awaken, we see all the wrong relationships we endured-
-were exactly right for our Awakening...
5
44
216
The reason why we feel lost when going through a Spiritual Awakening-
-is our identity is being deconstructed.
We may lose interest in things.
People may seem shallow.
We may lack direction.
Be AWARE of your thoughts, feelings, emotions.
Awareness Reveals the True Self...

“A man does not really begin to be alive until he has lost himself...until he has released the anxious grasp which he normally holds upon his life, his property, his reputation and position.”
~ Alan Watts

77
211
You may lose interest in many things for a time during your Awakening...
Have patience.
The things that TRULY interest you will reappear- bringing Joy along with them.
Don’t fear the transitioning apathy phase...it will pass.
7
63
212
Meditation improves your immune system...
Very relevant right now.
What are you waiting for?
7
61
214
We are all unknowingly high on a drug called- identity...
7
72
216
“Proving your worth” is a worthless activity of a mind caught within deep societal conditioning.
There’s never been anything real to prove...
4

219
If you're not allotting any of your free time to some form of quiet solitude-
-you're reinforcing your own suffering...
Meditation
Yoga
Mindfulness
Walking
Running
Hiking
Biking
Art
Dance
Nature
Etc
Find some way to be alone- and be Aware of the Silence you move within...
2
66
224
If you think you're always right-
-you probably have a "control" problem...
