WHY WE IGNORE CONSCIOUSNESS
Why We Ignore Consciousness People ignore consciousness to avoid self-examination, prioritising immediate gratification with yes/no answers, and looking no further. Taking consciousness for granted, we prefer tangible material results over subjective experience where we discover objective consciousness, which is pure … Continue reading
IS LIFE REPEATING ITSELF?
Is Life Repeating Itself? Is life repeating itself, or are we repeating ourselves? As long as we hold on to ideas, these ideas will influence whatever we do and say, and so this attitude becomes our lot in life. We … Continue reading

WHAT WE DON’T NOTICE
What We Don’t Notice We don’t notice being taken over by ideas, losing the ability to see clearly. When we hear or see something, we go to memory for reference, and then react. This is a learnt pattern of behaviour … Continue reading

Evil Is The Opposite To Truth Evil is the opposite to truth. Truth is what is natural; evil is unnatural. Ignorance of reality causes conflict in the world, and is meant to. The world is infected with ignorance that comes … Continue reading
NOT CONFIRMING IS REMAINING IN BELIEF
Not Confirming Is Remaining In Belief Relying on belief without confirmation is ignorance. Verifying is putting a proposal into practice, and then deciding if it is true. Try meditation: see what happens, and what isn’t happening!

THE LEVELS OF EVIL BEHIND THE SCENES

BEYOND RELIGION
Beyond Religion When it comes to pure awareness, nothing is more real. It is real because, being real, it is empty cognisance that never changes. All phenomena change, including ideas, but pure awareness or consciousness does not. Like infinite space, … Continue reading
WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT, AND UNIQUE
We Are All Different, And Unique We aren’t a group thing. Our approach to anything is individual, due to our backgrounds of confusion, doubt and ignorance. These are, in fact, good things: they are our path to enlightenment when we … Continue reading
THE DIS-EASE OF IGNORANCE

WHY I KEEP REPEATING THE BUDDHA’S WORDS
Why I Keep Repeating The Buddha’s Words … …“Do not take my words for the truth; test them for yourself.” If we merely reiterate words and offer no explanation, we are only repeating sounds, rather than addressing the context of … Continue reading
IS THERE A SCRIPT?

ARRESTED, JUDGED AND CONDEMNED … Lol!
Arrested, Judged and Condemned … Lol! When we look, our attention is caught and held (arrested), and we refer to the precedent of memory (judgement), and re-enact. In this way, we are condemned for life to our illusory prison. Why? … Continue reading
IT’S OUR IGNORANCE THAT CONTROLS THE WORLD
It is Our Ignorance That Controls The World Humans allow fear to persist because we ignore our true nature, free of concepts. It is we who give fear authority over us, and fear never wants to give up its power. … Continue reading
LIVING IN OTHERS’ FANTASIES MAKES US STUPID

IGNORANCE IS ENCOURAGED

WE ARE SLEEPWALKING IN OTHERS’ DREAMS

BELIEF IS THE BEGINNING OF OUR IGNORANCE
Belief Is The Beginning Of Our Ignorance Belief isn’t knowing. Belief is accepting what we are told, without proof. Don’t believe anything you’re told; test it, experience it. Knowing is experience. Belief or faith does has a positive side, but … Continue reading
SEX, DESIRE AND WISDOM
Sex, Desire And Wisdom If it wasn’t for sex and desire, we wouldn’t be here – and neither would our gurus. Being born allows us all to ‘wise up’ to our true reality, so we needn’t feel guilty. We are … Continue reading

WHO RULES THE WORLD?
Who Rules The World? Actually, this is the wrong question. Before we can ask, “Who rules the world?” we must ask, “What rules the world?” All sentient beings – and the entire universe – are governed by attraction and repulsion. … Continue reading

IGNORANCE
