YOUR EYES ARE THE EYES OF GOD, there is no you as such.

The you illusion is a nightmare because you can’t get out, because you are the illusion, holding the illusion – forever self-perpetuating the illusion out of thought. This is how it appears but now we are cleaver enough to work it out – that we can’t work it out! There is another way, we just have to give up our self-illusion, let go, this simple - empty – no one.  Leave the confines of thought, reorientate the mind more out of feeling, sensation – experience, instead of thought and we are free of the illusion - realize our divine nature. We are paradise, standing in paradise – Gods eyes are open - your eyes are the eyes of god and the world is experienced as one, more directly, not through thought so much, that is like experiencing second hand and is dull compared to this. God lives, there is no you but God experiencing his world. 

God is an all-embracing love – universal consciousness, not an individual.  

In the moment of going to sleep or waking up our real nature is revealed, because there is no you-illusion – out of thought, that has been let go off. There is just beingness, use this insight to help to get into experience. 

“I just woke and lay for a while, aware of the weight of the body and aware of the senesces – the air – noises outside – raindrops, wind and birdsong. With the mind put on this instead of thought I am free – our real nature is being uncovered.” Continue during the day – awareness instead of thought. We have to engage in thought some of the time but now that is just a tool not what I am.

You are projected out of thought, there is no you as such.  What we are is spiritual – non physical and all returns to the source.  The name is just a word – id for this body-mind, but that has helped to hold the illusion – thought has taken to be someone. 

There is no you, just be with that – empty.  We are not a name, not thought, not the body-mind, this is our vehicle for experience, there is no one as such.  I want you to let go – our spirituality revealed. Why do you always have to be so preoccupied? Because you are an illusion – only appearing out of thought and that phantom believes it exists and holds us occupied to keep the self-illusion going, so we live with this nervous disorder, and our held in too much separation from our divine nature, we are lost and there is fear of letting go of what we have taken to be. 

It’s ok, there is nothing but love. We are not the body-mind, we are spiritual, undefined, a part of universal consciousness. Laminated with this body-mind  - this is our vehicle for experience but thought has taken over – covered over our real nature. When we don’t have to be engaged in thought get out of that – use this Reorientation - put the mind on feeling, sensation – experience instead of thought and just be with the fact that we are other than thought, words-language, be empty. The “me” illusion disappears - we reveal our real nature, which can only be experienced not thought, and is Devine.

We all know about awareness of the breath but this is vast and expanded – “awareness is all there is”, and I offer this Reorientation. Work out of awareness instead of thought. Awareness holds no illusion, with practice the mind changes and works more out of feeling, sensation - experience instead of thought. The minds malfunction starts to be corrected – the self-illusion disappears revealing “reality”- a step in evolution. There are three attributes to bring about non-duality – this change – correction.

1 By bringing the mind to this understanding – to the point of letting go. 2 By devotion to giving up the self-illusion – letting go, being empty but presently aware. 3 By this reorientation out of feeling, sensation – experience instead of thought. – Unnecessary thoughts keep appearing, holding this illusion of you – we are possessed by thought, we don’t want to be held in thought - in separation all the time. This is what has come about, so we have to learn to give this self-illusion up – which only appears out of thought, when we don’t have to be engaged in thought – get out of thought – leave that but the mind keeps firing off thoughts in an effort to hold its self-illusion! Out of fear – separation but its ok we can put the mind on feeling, sensation instead of thought – use this reorientation, this holds no illusion. Take time out to help to stabilise “as reality”, it’s really a world of experience, not thought.

Awareness of air entering the nostrils, breathing in the belly – in and out, pulsing blood, heart, the weight of the body, touch and how things feel, cool skin, a shiver, taste, smell, running water, sunshine, beauty or even the sound of a car passing by – it’s all divine. Awareness of the thought machine too – so we are not thought! – now the illusion will go. 

We are here to experience, thought is a wonderful tool but became a delusion. This reorientation will help us to adjust the mind and clear the illusion – its aclumative, the more we practice the better it gets. The blissful life is of subtle experience, not thought. Without this reorientation the illusion can be all too persuasive, but working out of feeling, sensation becomes a natural reorientation, the minds preference once it has tasted its real nature – reality. It’s good to encourage it – who! This subtle undefined  being-ness – love.            

You are held in an illusion out of thought, in fact this is so full proof that you will have to accept that you are an illusion, and give yourself up to clear the illusion and reveal our real nature – this will be experienced for real. We are so used to being held in this illusion that we don’t know any better, but this takes a lot of effort for the mind to hold, like doing a press up the mind is holding separation. Revealing our real nature requires no effort at all, it’s what we are, prior to thought. It’s the effort – thought that holds the illusion. We have to get the mind to stop holding this self-illusion, there really is no you as such but subtle undefined beingness – love, it has to be experienced to understand, and we will, by moving to experience instead of thought. 

Thought is holding the illusion and most of the time runs on its own, we became possessed by this organic computer. The mind, our servant has fooled us into believing we are the thoughts, are the body mind and holds us in this separation, fear – dissatisfaction. What we have to understand is this, first we are spiritual, are not the body or mind - this is our vehicle. We have installed this language into the mind like a computer program to communicate – work things out, and thought is a wonderful tool but we also became possessed by it. Thought runs in three ways, first we translate our feelings, emotions – experiences into thoughts. We don’t have thoughts, there is just beingness, experience and emotions - we are really silent.   The mind also translates our emotions spontaneously – involuntary and not always correctly e.g. If we feel fear the mind may translate it wrongly into hateful thoughts and actions. This spontaneous seemingly uncontrollable thought helped to trick us into believing we were the thoughts. 

The mind just thinks on its own too – firing of opinions, desires, all in an effort to hold the projection of its self out of thought – out of fear of not being this self, thought and we have taken to be! Malfunction Malfunction, and as we are – held in separation – fear, we tend to hang on to this self illusion and need to be brave to let go. The human mind is evolving and is so cleaver that it can see its own malfunction. Now we can get out of this illusion which is like a not so good dream and wake up to the reality of everything – our real nature and step in evolution. The mind is the problem and the mind has to sort it’s self out – we have to bring the mind to understanding its malfunction, to the point of letting go of thought when not needed. We have to stay just in our beingness, prior to thought or language - experience more instead, the mind will adjust. Thoughts may still run on there own, just be aware of them, don’t engage with more, that’s how the illusion holds it’s self. When we don’t have to be engaged in thought stay out of that. 

Second, by this Reorientation, the mind wants to be busy all the time in this condition and I champion this Reorientation out of feeling, sensation – experience instead of thought when ever possible. The mind only wants to do one thing at a time so put the mind on this instead of thought. Feeling, sensation – experience holds no illusion, and it will taste like nectar because it reveals our real nature, then it will be the minds preference – I’d rather not think.  Thirdly, by devotion to this practice directed from our beingness we will adjust the mind and it will stop projecting a self-illusion out of thought so much, - less thoughts will come or they will just be transcended – trying to control thought too much will only continue to hold the self-illusion – with more thoughts. Relax in being, this will help. Now we can reveal our real nature, this will be an amazing change in your life – liberating and fulfilling. So to adjust the mind and transcend the self-illusion, bring the mind to understanding, to the point of being able to pack up – to try this, convince the mind, and now we can stay as experience – empty, prior to thought or language. Just being – operating out of feeling, sensation – experience instead of thought as much as possible, staying other than thought, just residing as beingness – one love  –( not personal) – universal consciousness.  Reality is all there is with no one in it as such, just stay prior to thought or language. We are not the bodymind, not the thoughts - we don’t make most of them! We are just the beingness, undefined – dimensionless, vast and expanded – infinity – endless love – eternal love. This bodymind is our vehicle and by this reorientation we will know soon that It had malfunctioned and held us in this self-illusion - we will of stepped in evolution. Life will be vastly improved - this will change the world for the better not just you.

Some teachers go too far saying there is no practice, no enlightenment – no liberation, nothing attained and no evolution. They are misleading, unhelpful and maybe they are not talking from experience.  

I’m all for taking a hard line but lets be clear, no one is enlightened – liberated, - this is the enlightenment, that there is no one as we thought so controversy there is enlightenment, - we realize we are held in an illusion having experienced being out of this, when this is experienced it changes your life.

There is no you as such but this is not annihilation – quite the opposite, we are vast and expanded, we have to take this hard line “There is no you” – “No-one” to break the illusion but there is still being-ness – subtle and undefined – love. We are here to experience and when we are out of the illusion of a separate self it feels amazing, but if there is no practice it is unlikely that this will happen. What is attained is a whole new way of being. This is an evolution taking place that will change the world for the better.

When I look in your eyes I see all the love of the universe, but I have lost that personal love, of course, we are love. 

Maybe there can still be a special bond, things are meant to be, like flowers on a tree, why not.
