MEDITATION: ANTI-VIRUS SOFTWARE
Meditation: Anti-virus Software Meditation is like anti-virus software, cleaning out the malware which is specifically designed to disrupt, damage or gain unauthorised access to our minds. 🙂 It is a programme to remove our programming.
THE PURPOSE OF MEDITATION
The Purpose Of Meditation Meditation is simply being aware of thoughts and emotions that control us, running around in the mind and diverting our attention. When we become aware of the awareness that is observing these thoughts, this is meditation. … Continue reading

THE TRUTH OF TRUTH
The Truth Of Truth We are each our own guru-teacher. Relying on another’s path may inspire us, but we go alone. This isn’t about making up a path, and using it as an excuse to justify our selfish behaviour. It … Continue reading

CONSCIOUS BIAS CREATES THE BIASED UNCONSCIOUS

REALISATION FEELS OUTSIDE OF TIME
Realisation Feels Outside Of Time We watch people going through their predictable routines, saying, doing, fixating as if they are behind glass. We can enter their world, but they cannot enter ours – unless they knock. 😀

EVIL IS NOT INTELLIGENT, IT’S SUPER-INTELLECT
Evil Is Not Intelligent, It’s Super-Intelligent So how does evil regard us? It knows human frailty of hope, fear and indifference and uses this to its advantage. Evil is all about gain. It does not recognise wisdom, as there is … Continue reading
CAN AN ACTION BE NEUTRAL?
Can An Action Be Neutral? Anything that manifests has a cause and an effect, and so cannot be neutral. Things do not just happen. Only consciousness remains neutral in its pure state. Neutral is seeing clearly, disengaged from fixations.

KARMA IS NOT FATE
Karma Is Not Fate Fate: that which has been spoken, making it inevitable that something will happen. Karma: the sum of a person’s previous actions, either beneficial or harmful. Fate suggests that results cannot be changed. Karma suggests that the result can … Continue reading

THE GREAT LEAP FORWARD … INTO HELL
The Great Leap Forward … Into Hell We have to be mindful of the type of world in which we are living. The constant reset of consciousness. The only thing that changes is the illusion, maintaining perfect totalitarian communism. Totalitarianism … Continue reading
MAKING THE MOST OUT OF LIFE
Making The Most Out Of Life Life is consciousness, and consciousness is natural goodness. Making the most out of consciousness is realising that we are this pure, good spirit, rather than spending our life trying to look good. Nature dazzles … Continue reading

MEMORIES ARE SUBCONSCIOUS BIAS
Memories Are Subconscious Bias Our decisions are based on memories. If our memories are partial or influenced, our thinking will be tainted. Ideas are planted into a society through the media, and that is our normal. We become one-dimensional vertical … Continue reading
WHAT IF THE YUGAS WERE PERSONAL?
What If The Yugas Were Personal? In the Rigveda, a ‘yuga’ can refer to generations, a long period, a very brief period, or a yoke. In the Mahabharata, the word ‘yuga’ is used to describe the cycles of creation and destruction, with four world ages of Krita … Continue reading
NIHILISM – MISUNDERSTANDING OBJECTIVENESS
Nihilism – Misunderstanding Objectiveness Nihilism: the belief that nothing in the world has a real existence, and that life is meaningless. We must be careful when we repeat text on negation (known as Madhyamika) that cancels everything out and finds nothing left. This can be misunderstood and can … Continue reading
A LACK OF EMPATHY
A Lack Of Empathy If we take a side, we jump to conclusions and therefore lack empathy as we’re not looking behind the story. We become so partial (unbalanced) and divided (competitive) that empathy for others goes out of the window. In our hearts, … Continue reading
LOOK AT THE SIGNS – THE ENDING OF THE KALI YUGA

MENTALLY TORTURED, WITHOUT KNOWING IT
Mentally Tortured, Without Knowing It This isn’t an honest world. We are meant to see injustice. Every sentient being is the very same essence of pure consciousness. Unfortunately, we miss this altogether by being constantly distracted by world history, which … Continue reading
THE CRAFT AND THE ART OF DHARMA
The Craft And The Art Of Dharma The craft of the Dharma is studying text and going to lectures: it’s all very interesting and consuming, and we can learn to recite this and that. But the actual Dharma is the … Continue reading
IS ENLIGHTENMENT SOPHISTICATED?
Is Enlightenment Sophisticated? Sophisticated Sophism. Sophisticated: developed to a high degree of complexity. Sophism: a clever but false argument, to deliberately deceive. Sophistry: a fallacious argument; a mistaken belief. Maintaining sophistication requires a high degree of complexity. Enlightenment is the simplest view in the universe. It is just … Continue reading

EVIL HIDES THE TRUTH
Evil Hides The Truth Evil hides the truth with partial truths or omissions. As long as we are coddled in our personal partial truth, we will feel cosy and comforted, relying on being looked after by our ‘betters’. Evil knows … Continue reading

A HIGHER PURPOSE IS UNKNOWABLE?

THE ART OF HAPPENING
The Art Of Happening Happening: improvised or spontaneous. It’s what we do with Dharma. Spontaneous: occurring without premeditation or external stimulus, having an open, natural, and uninhibited manner. It’s what we do with Dharma. We are the pure heart of consciousness. Consciousness isn’t something organised. Thank goodness.
DEMORALISED
Demoralised Demoralise: to cause someone to lose confidence. To corrupt the morals of someone to become unsure of right and wrong. The view of a neuroscientist adept: “Consciousness arises out of the brain.” The view of a spiritual adept: “Consciousness permeates the entire body.” It amounts … Continue reading

IMAGE OVER SUBSTANCE
Image Over Substance Image is concerned with how we appear. In that, there is no substance. Substance is being meaningful. Substance: from Latin substantia ‘being, essence’. When we realise substance, it doesn’t matter how we appear.
FRUSTRATION CAN TURN TO ANGER
Frustration Can Turn To Anger There are two types of frustration that can turn to anger: Type 1 – Not knowing enough – and not knowing the right words – causes confusion and conflict. Type 2 – Knowing the truth … Continue reading

HUMANITY’S DISORIENTATION
Humanity’s Disorientation Disorientated: having lost one’s sense of direction; confused, and unable to think clearly.

GETTING USED TO BOREDOM
Getting Used To Boredom Bored: feeling weary and impatient because one is unoccupied or lacks interest in one’s current activity. ‘Boredom’ is a misnomer.
