OUR BELIEFS SENTENCE US
Our beliefs sentence us. Our beliefs sentence us to see the world in a certain way, and that in turn has an effect on us. This is the law of interdependence: situations are created by a series of links comprising … Continue reading
FEAR OF DEVOTION
Fear of devotion. In some cultures, devotion exists naturally. In others, it doesn’t. We all have this feeling of devotion, but are afraid of it – or rather, we are afraid of our feelings about it. It is a hidden … Continue reading
World Food Corruption.
World Food Corruption. Spiritual people can no longer stick their heads in the sand, ignoring what is happening to their brothers and sisters. Listen to this video very carefully, it describes a company that is unkind to mankind – and … Continue reading
DHARMA AND THE FAMILY

There are still some good people around!
Mike Kelly is one of them. You can deceive some of the people all of the time, but not all the people all of the time!
THIS IS A VERY DECEPTIVE WORLD
This is a very deceptive world. There are two aspects to our being; essence, which is our pure being, and embodied essence caught up in the temporary, material mindbody. We have to respect this mindbody and keep it healthy, as … Continue reading
THE PATH
The Path. The spiritual path is that which removes our confusion. Our confusion created the path. The path is our confusion. Although our essence is clear, mind and brain have confused wiring! It takes time to ‘fire and … Continue reading
A LITTLE MORE INFORMATION 2
A little more information 2. Images and ideas from the past will also arise. Treat them the same way: they are merely images from the past, and they all come to pass. Quite often, we think that meditation should be … Continue reading

A LITTLE MORE INFORMATION
A little more information. It’s like, instead of looking out of the eyes*, the scene merely comes in as a whole. One isn’t looking for, or at, anything: there is just seeing, and the seeing is not held onto. Everything … Continue reading

NO DIRECT EXPERIENCE
No direct experience. Of course, we may not ‘get it’. We just have to be in the right place at the right time. We also have to be aware of our own obscurations – conceptual ideas and emotions, called klesha, … Continue reading
DIRECT EXPERIENCE
Direct experience. Although we may know philosophies, and able to repeat the words and experiences of others, they are not a substitute for direct experience. When you ‘know’, then no one can ever lord it over you, or try to … Continue reading

REALISATION IS A BIT OF A SHOCK!

DISTRACTION IS A TWO-EDGED SWORD

RELYING ON YOURSELF
Relying on yourself. Relying on yourself is… tricky. Yes, we have to do the work of recognising, but it’s also necessary to recognise the need for inspiration. Without this, we will not only not start…we will not finish! People say, … Continue reading

SELF-EXISTING AWARENESS

DEDICATING MERIT
Dedicating merit. At the end of any practice, it is always good to dedicate it to all sentient beings. It completes the practice and rids us of any self centred-ness. Whatever merit we have accumulated may it benefit all sentient … Continue reading
