Finding What You’re Looking For

It is not in the finding, but in the looking. The pure awareness and the dropping of any attachment to being aware. There is no act involved, no flights of fancy.

The problem comes when we feel there should be whistles and bells and ‘angels’. We should be feeling great. No. Feelings are a physical sensation in the body or euphoria in the mind – both just temporary phenomena adopted from others’ fantasies of things supernatural and mysterious.

Stage magicians can to this for our entertainment.

Realisation is being ordinary, just aware in the unity of one taste, the neutral state of experience, disengaged but fully aware, fully conscious.

There is no need to act ‘spiritual’ because, when realisation dawns, we are ethereal consciousness. Many realised people had ordinary jobs and lived outside the parade, the showing.

The only thing we are then bound to is the reality of absolute truth within all beings.
