Elton John -- ISLAND GIRL



BE present. Not sure what meditation and yoga and orthodoxy has to do with progress but orthodoxy (talking about peace, God, truth, love) has never availed jack, personally speaking.  Orthopraxy, practicing or living life awake, is cool.  Hope this helps.  

You have NEVER not been in the NOW.  

Don't overthink that shit, but let it sink in.  Please let that sink in.  Is it possible to have a problem NOW?  My guess is that your mind blacked out for a hot second when you considered that question.  What’s wrong with the Now?  

Got to think or rather imagine something don’t you?  

Kinda scary once you start intentionally BEING present here AND now because the house of cards we thought was real comes crumbling down.  Let that sucker crumble!  

Here and NOW is awesome.  Oh, and those jumping bean repetitively useless thoughts your having?  Be aware of them, drop them, be aware of the next one, drop it, so on.  Don’t overthink it or talk about it.  Here comes another one about whether this will work or not.  Drop it.  

I have a fish in my fish tank full of water that’s thirsty.  Hold on, it woke up to realty again.  It’s o longer under that illusion and now you’re not either.  

And, drop it.

Estar. No estoy seguro de qué tiene que ver la meditación, el yoga y la ortodoxia con el progreso, pero la ortodoxia (hablar de paz, Dios, verdad, amor) nunca ha servido de ayuda, en términos personales. La ortopraxia, practicar o vivir la vida despierta, es genial. Espero que esto ayude.

NUNCA has estado en el AHORA.

No pienses demasiado en eso, permítete, sí, deja que se hunda. Por favor, deja que se hunda. ¿Es posible tener un problema AHORA? Supongo que tu mente quedó en blanco por un segundo caliente cuando consideraste esa pregunta. ¿Qué pasa con el ahora?

Tengo que pensar o más bien imaginar algo ¿no?

Un poco atemorizante una vez que comienzas intencionalmente a estar presente aquí Y ahora, porque el castillo de naipes que pensamos que era real se derrumba. Deja que ese lechón se desmorone!

Aquí y AHORA es increíble. Ah, y aquellos que saltan a Bean pensamientos repetitivamente inútiles que tienes? Sé consciente de ellos, déjalos, sé consciente del siguiente, déjalo, etc. No lo pienses demasiado ni hable de ello. Aquí viene otro sobre si esto funcionará o no. Déjalo caer.

Tengo un pez en mi pecera lleno de agua sediento. Espera, se despertó a la realidad de nuevo. Ya pasó más tiempo bajo esa ilusión y ahora tampoco lo estás.

Morir a los cuidados de morir. Morir a morir y un milagro está en marcha. Cuanto antes mueras a lo que no es como alguna vez pensaste, la realización se convierte en la percepción y ya no estás separado.

Ways to Determine if You're Asleep At the Wheel (Reacting as you exist through life akin to a Rock with Eyelids)

1.  You own more than one watch.
2.  You don't own more than one watch, every single timepiece that you see owns you. Good news however. Go into DEEP time and a good start is to intentionally set aside an hour a day for stillness and silence.  Take the watch off especially when you're going for a walk and do not even need the damned thing. Increase the 'time' to a few hours a day. Rumour has it very well documented and even personally proven that if AND when you decide you've suffered enough, you'll have a sudden onset realisation.  Less is more.  What matters the most is realising what never mattered in the least.  Spirituality by reduction. Freedom by dropping the deadwood.
3.  Every single night before you pensively go to bed, you witlessly ruminate about whether the alarm clock will blast you into another day of multitasking, anxiety, an additional something absurd to fret over, a walking and talking rock with eyelids. Pavlovian's drooling dog syndrome. The GREAT news is that RIGHT NOW, you are vastly more aware than you were less than 90 seconds ago.  
4.  You can't wait. Well, you can and will.  Once patience becomes easy, paradoxically, the hardest part is over with. Practice being aware of what the ticker tape thoughts that run through your mind are and then let them flow on by. Being aware that you've been unaware is AWARENESS.
5.  You're incessantly in a rush and you know it but yet you are unaware that you know it.  Tantamount to constant white noise. Truth is ALWAYS self-evident. It's recognition, not cognition. I.E., "You have never been and will never be NOT Now."  One seamless nanosecond streams effortlessly into another forever Now.  "What time is it now?" Well, the question answers itself. That IS DEEP time. If you think this is overly glib and not realistic, that's less of a thought and more of just a habituated, shopworn, highly opportune and even higher level of having bit the cultural bait. You've been hoodwinked and by God, that galls the hell out of your ego.  
6.  You set alarms and needless notifications on your Smartphone or iPhone and the notifications annoy you into a literal hell but you have become incapable of slowing that maddened mind down so as to realise there is an option.  Turn the damnable notifications off.
7.  You hate being in a rush but you're not unhappy unless you "think" you are.
8.  You pride yourself on being a freethinker and yet all the while wholly clueless that you've been a captive to thinking about one or both wrong sides of the present NOW.
9.  You see the word NOW but read the word OWNED.
10.   You try to think of creative ideas but simply cannot comprehend that there's nothing remotely creative about "trying" to "think."
11.  You feel guilty for feeling guilty and guilty for feeling happy.
12.  By Saturday afternoon, you're preoccupied with Monday morning and whether or not your alarm clock will blast into another witless week of being Asleep At The Wheel.
13.  You're into pointless platitudes like "Never stop chasing your dreams."
14.  It never occurs to you that at this rate, that's not a dream you've been chasing, it's more like a Cheetah.  Run that sucker down or use a taser on that nightmare to slow it down long enough grasp it.
15.  You say:  "As Soon As ___, happens, I'll be happy."  But you never are.  And round the mountain you hit a lick at the goat-rope again.
16.  If you slow down, everything will seem to speed up.
17.  You read number 16 but after the word slow, you went into a deeper state of unconsciousness.
18.  Whenever you have spare time, you almost go into a panic attack.
19.  You're on social media too much and I realise in writing this, I am too.
20.   You say you could care less about what others think about you but you're moving into middle-age and you still try to impress people you don't even like.
21.  When someone tells you to stop worrying, it pisses you off.  When they say:  "Worry your ass off."  You become furious.
22.  You just checked to see what time it is.
23.  Something you marginally consciously  read seems to make sense, but you can't accept it.
24.  You react to every perceived slight, real or imagined.
25.  You haven't enjoyed the smell of leaves or noticed the splendid beauty of the seasons since you were a toddler.

What’s It like to Fly? Watch!


ほとんどの人は、生活の85%を2つのうちの1つで待っています:

1.リラックスして生きるのを待っている。
2.死ぬのを待って、これは不安をもたらし、うつ病を引き起こし、不安に戻る。

ヒント:あなたが待っていると感じたら、その考えを落として、落ち着いて言ってください。

次の3分間だけ、私は何も考えずに(考えて)行くつもりはありません。私は今日だけうまくいくでしょう。

「しかし、あなたはどのように意識を持ち、考えていないでしょうか?」Angstはそれと答えを尋ねます:

非常に可能であり、完全に存在し意識があり、ティッカーテープの精神的騒音が依然として存在し、存在しない可能性が高い。無意識が夢と悪夢にもかかわらず、主にオフを考えているときだけ、それは燃えるように保ちます。


それで遊ぶ。それは錯覚で、もしあなたがこれを読んでいるなら、あなたは今の瞬間から戻って走り過ぎるほど読んだことがあります。変容が始まり、それは痛みます、確かに、しかし永遠ではありません。

真実は真実であり、幻想、恐怖そして添付ファイルを落とすことは、これを意味します - あなたは幸福を知っているでしょう。

心はすべてに開いているが、何も付いていない。周囲にいないときにあなたが本当に誰かを愛することができるか気づいたことがありますか?もちろん、あなたがそれらを見ると誰かを愛していますが、どのように感傷的で、あなたはおそらくあなたが嫌い​​な人と「良い」時間を思い出すことができますか?それは憎しみではありませんが、それは幻想です。なぜ幻想?あなたの本当の自己ではないからです。これは、白い無条件のスクリーンに投写される投射のようなもので、どのようにひどく激しいのかにかかわらず、プロジェクタが動作を停止すると、あなたの精神的グリッドは無条件に準備されます。あなたは今を選択します。それは「記憶の浄化」と呼ばれています。

あなたはイベントを思い出すことができますが、そうしたら、犠牲者がゆっくりと流れ出るように感情を許してください。私は個人的には、直前に直ちに落ちることのない不敬な感情を経験しました。どうして?あなたがいなくなったら、そして/または喜んで幸せになれば、彼らは喜んでしまいます。努力しない。無限の忍耐が即座の結果につながることを忘れないでください。何が結果?平和。

Joan Tollifson -- A Non-dual Perspective of Death and Dying



Not until my WHOLE perception of God as other than an object became clearer just recently was I capable of truly accepting the Kingdom of God within me as Christ again and again states.  I guess we’re taught what to look for but not how to perceive what has always been right in front of us. Well, he’s in us.  Why we missed the point is because we were told a belief system was sufficient for salvation some day in the future.  The actual gospel which has largely been formed more so by Plutocracy than by Jesus was much more hopeful in the beginning.  Catholic is universal and the desert church mothers and fathers soaked in the reality of universal salvation because the identity theology back then (before the imperial egoistic Romans and later the Protestant food fighting started) gave gracefully and liberally debauched people their immortal diamond dignity back to them  as children from, for and of God.  We inherited Christ’s DNA and there is no longer Pluto’s asinine and senseless heretical notion of a distinction between the human and the divine.  The distinction is itself divisive and SELF-INTERESTED.  In the West, we were trained to think dualistically rather than follow Christ’s trinitarian Third Eye way or HOW to perceive correctly by way of a BOTH AND consciousness.  Dualistic thinking is ALL or NOTHING, Either OR, I’m right but you’re wrong, black Vs white, liberals vs conservatives, capitalism vs socialism, my label vs your label, my way of thinking vs the world, (we like only those who like us and that’s normal UNTIL Christ told us that we were nothing more than how the sinners treat the sinners and when He said this, WE ALL must WANT to change our perceptions, accept others without judgement and with a bigger eternal picture in heart, or cease stating our separate Saint status via labeling because there is no love in separation).  How so?  The incapacity to see yourself in another person regardless of their past or skin color or our knowledge of their religious opinions is the universal sin.  Lust isn’t “good” but let’s face it — lust isn’t likely to pridefully become another religion.  

And look at the 33,000 de-nominations now EITHER straining out gnats OR swallowing camels.  The word Catholic meant church at one time.  Everyone Belongs.  Once the military powers of Rome made their “religion” Rômân Catholic” they undid or tried to undo what Christ was crucified to eternally end — rules made to create class distinctions while generating revenue from the top down.  Unbelievable how we’ve missed it, isn’t it?   

(That question is likely a very troubling point and if you’re like the majority that rules, you frankly will initially manipulate and deny its truth).

 Christ’s entire message was then and remains now from the bottom up.  First last, last first.  He tried desperately to make this point in parables and specifically with the image of building a house from the bottom up and on a lasting foundation.  The first realization is how the house is built— from the bottom up.  It’s logical and conveys patience and humility.  The next point He makes has less to do with the materials of sand OR concrete and everything to do with our BEING awake to perceive ALL and judge nothing.  Repentance simply means to “change perception of conditioned thought patterns”.  (Be not conformed to Pattern but RENEWED by Transforming the dualistic mind).  Sin is simply to MISS THE POINT.  “Unless you become as a child again...” (Born again • but we’ve over spiritualised the idea as a superstitious lightening bolt or something). If we imagine HELL as a geographical placement, we miss the point.  It’s a state of consciousness or rather unconsciousness.  Perception is DEAD WRONG.  Time will not cure the missing the point “sin” issue.  Rewind the spell by recognising what our initial wrong thinking miscalculation occurred.  Work the sum anew (renew the mind). 

The number 2 is by its nature oppositional.  It wants to fight.   Dualism is the religious doctrine that the universe contains opposed powers of good AND evil, especially ’seen’ as balanced equals.  The irony in so-called Christian theology is the spiritually deluded idea that Christ’s invisibly perfect attributes were in hostile opposition against Christ’s both visible and, upon ascension, invisible divinity. The actual heresy stems from Lucifer himself who became greatly insulted that Go, the Creator, would make His children within the material world of clay.  Lucifer pridefully saw God’s decision to make mankind in God’s likeness materially as beneath his evil possessiveness for uniqueness and superior peerlessness.  Much like the older brother in the prodigal son parable that Jesus told. Dualism is the religious doctrine that the universe contains opposed powers of good AND evil, especially ’seen’ as balanced equals.  The irony in so-called Christian theology is the spiritually deluded idea that Christ’s invisibly perfect attributes were in hostile opposition against Christ’s both visible and, upon ascension, invisible physically human form. The actual heresy stems from Lucifer himself who became greatly insulted that God the Creator would make His children within the material world of clay.  Lucifer misperceived God’s decision to make mankind in God’s likeness materially as beneath his evil possessiveness for uniqueness and superior peerlessness.  Much like the older brother in the prodigal son parable that Jesus told. This remains true but we are addicted to getting into heaven by external concepts of morality as like a carrot dangling in front of us and this sort of dog racing behavior modification idiocy kills real time BOTH here AND Now.  Along came Luther and for mostly good reason, then the reformation and then the advent of the printing press.  We liked words and soon loved words because many words make manipulating the masses for money remarkably easy.  We’ll buy anything especially when our rescored remix of fervently religious Christianity espouses mankind’s desire to resurrect the old time religion that Christ crucified.  And not only by Christ’s symbolic death but because His Life was AND remains the Prime Causation forever Greater than all subsequently created Effects; “...for through him (Christ) God created EVERYTHING in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can't see — such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world.  Everything was created through him (Christ) and for him.  He (Christ) IS the IMAGE of the invisible God, the FIRSTBORN of ALL CREATION.  He (Christ) IS before all things, and in him (Christ) all things HOLD together.  He (Christ) IS also head of the body (ALL creation), the church (ALL creation universal inclusion); and He (Christ) IS the beginning, the FIRSTBORN from the DEAD, so that He Himself (Christ) will come to have FIRST place in EVERYTHING.  And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet NOW has Christ reconciled.”  

What we judge we cannot understand.  Whether a good or bad judgment, what has been judged isn’t understood.  Jesus rejected the label of good when someone called Him “good” teacher.  We don’t want to fully understand or accept anyone we judge.  And this goes both ways.  Have you met people who have their heads in the sand when it comes to admitting that someone they love or even someone who shares the same politically conditioned worldview could ever be wrong?   I’ve heard it said that we most frequently lose the very things we most frequently think about keeping.  Car keys, wallets, purses, uncashed checks, eyeglasses, quickly memorized answers to tomorrow morning’s test, those happy feelings and the conditions causing them.  It seems happiness is more so a conceptualised ‘word’ easier to pronounce than it is to practice here and now.  Here NOW.   What time is it now?  My guess is that you just now glanced at your watch or phone to find out what time it is now. Oh!  There’s another thing most people fear losing more than life itself.  I’ve heard those who are now living it label it like they would a lifeless entity with a host of titles, positions, ranks, roles, possessions and some will even proceed to explain it or talk about it.   An object for intellectual discussion.  What’s life as an it all about?  Do you really want to know?  Jesus asked a beggar the same question.  “Do you want to be well?” He answered “Yes!” And so what’s the answer that will explain the purpose and meaning of life itself?  Well, you cannot run from the answer and say “No” to what you already know at the same time.  

Say “YES!” to Here Now.  


Those who understand that they don’t understand, have no need to explain.  Those who explain it, can’t understand it.

Living In Deep Time Right Here NOW. This is Awesome

Listen to this all the way through and remember that there’s a reason for repetition.  Perception isn’t what you see but how you begin seeing everything newly and peaceable.  



Perception is how you see everything without any further compulsion to immediately label.  It is what it is what it is.  



He who rushes ahead doesn’t go far.
He who tries to shine, dims his own light.
He who defines himself can’t know who he really is.
He who has power over others can’t empower himself.
He who clings to his work will create nothing that endures.
If you want to stay on course, do your job and then leave it alone.
There was something formless and perfect before the universe was born.
It is serene, empty, solitary, unchanging, infinite, eternally present.
It is the mother of the universe.
For lack of a better name, I call it a Dao.
It flows through all things, inside and outside and returns to the origin of all things.
The Dao is great, the universe is great, the earth is great, man is great.
These are the four great powers.
Man follows the earth, earth follows the universe, the universe follows the Dao.
The Dao follows only itself.
The heavy is the root of the light, The unmoved is the source of all movement.
Thus the master travels all day without leaving home.  However splendid the views, she stays serenely in herself.
Why should the Lord of the country flit about like a fool?
If you let yourself e blown to and fro, you lose touch with your own root.
If you let restlessness move you, you lose touch with who you are.
A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent upon arriving.
A good artists let’s his intuition lead him wherever it wants.
A good scientist has freed himself from concepts and keeps his mind open to what is.


To offer no resistance to life is to be in a state of grace, ease, and lightness. This state is then no longer dependent upon things being in a certain way, good or bad. It seems almost paradoxical, yet when your inner dependency on form is gone, the general conditions of your life, the outer forms, tend to improve greatly. Things, people, or conditions that you thought you needed for your happiness now come to you with no struggle or effort on your part, and you are free to enjoy and appreciate them - while they last. All those things, of course, will still pass away, cycles will come and go, but with dependency gone there is no fear of loss anymore. Life flows with ease. “If your mind carries a heavy burden of past, you will experience more of the same. The past perpetuates itself through lack of presence. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.
