HERE and NOW
YOU ARE THAT

Do not try to keep quiet,
do not make being quiet into a task to be performed.
Don't be restless about being quiet,
miserable about being happy.

The ultimate Truth is so simple that it is laughable. Have a look at your own existence.
Look at your own being. You are alive right now. You are aware of being. That is IT.
It is awareness of being. 'I' exist right here and now is the Sought-after Truth.

One 'believes' that there is bondage and therefore seeks liberation.
But the fact is that there is no bondage
but only liberation.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

The Fool.

The fool strongly believes that there is spiritual bondage.

Spiritual and religious people tell others that they are bound and they believe it.
When in Reality the false notion of bondage is the only bondage. There is no bondage.
'Imagining' that there is bondage, the fool looks frantically to attain 'imaginary' Freedom.

Meeting along the way other people that are also delusional and that pretend or 'imagine'
to have attained 'imaginary' Freedom which is what we call spiritual liberation to guide them.
The blind guiding the blind. Fools turn toward spirituality and religions for 'imaginary' liberation.

If you were told to pray to God, to worship a Guru, to practice yoga, meditation, repeat a mantra
or sing a bhajan etc, in order to become Free or spiritually liberated realize that you have been lied to.

Question all your spiritual and religious beliefs, because they alone are your only bondage. They are the Trap.
Freedom from all bondage is to simply remove the false idea of being bound. Just this and nothing else.

Who told you that you are bound and why did you foolishly believe them? Because it is simply wrong knowledge.
In reality there is neither spiritual bondage or spiritual liberation. Both are false. One only 'believes' that there is.

Spiritual liberation is only an illusory religious concept or carrot used to entice a fool.
Call off the Search. Seeking Freedom is only perpetuating an erroneous notion, illusion
or false 'imagination' of being bound. Seeking is itself a Trap, because there is no bondage.

We are 'imagining' we are bound and are making various, strenuous attempts to become free.
We will be surprised that we were frantically trying to attain something,
which we have always been and are.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~


Just like bondage is only 'imaginary', Freedom is also 'imaginary'. Both do not exist at all. They are illusion.
Therefore realize that if you strongly 'believe' that you have met a great spiritual Guru that has attained
or reached 'imaginary' Freedom or so called spiritual liberation you have in fact been conned.

If you ever adopt a spiritual Guru, a spiritual teacher or any religion you will only become slave to illusion.
See the false as false. To foolishly believe that someone has attained 'imaginary' Freedom or Mukti is in fact
to cultivate and worship the greatest illusion. Realize that a spiritual Guru is not your friend but a con artist.

As the old saying goes, if you ever see a spiritual or holy buddha on the road kill him because he is a truly fraud.
Just like a juicy carrot is used to entice an Ass. It is all and only for show to entice the ignorant fool, nothing else.

When bondage does not exist, spiritual or religious leaders only pretend to have acquired 'imaginary' Freedom.
It is only a self-serving 'concept'. They only pretend to have for deception and the exploitation of ignorance.

After all, one only 'imagines' that they are bound. That is all bondage truly is, false imagination or false notion.
Bondage and liberation do not exist. Illusion and ignorance is what is being sold as spirituality and religions.
Spirituality and all religions are just the art or business of 'making the fool believe' in false 'imagination'.

If you ever take a look at your chains they will not be found because they never were there to begin with.
What binds you? Question, investigate and find out for yourself what is Real. Nothing else is required.
Blind Faith in some spiritual Guru or a religious Teacher because he or she looks the part is a trap.

It is not because someone appearing holy tells you something they have read a book, that it makes it true.
For example if you were told by a holy Guru to go beyond the 'mind' or to kill the 'ego' to reach Freedom,
realize the simple Truth. That you are already beyond the so called 'mind' and that 'ego' does not exist.

If you seek the ego you will find, it does not exist.
That is the way to get rid of it. Look for it
and it will not be found.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Why does a fool strive to kill an 'ego' that does not even exist?
Eastern religions are based of the concept of an 'ego' to be destroyed
that does not even exist. How do you ever get rid of what is not even there?
All religions and their spiritual denominations are in reality illusion and fiction.

Just like with the concept of the 'ego' that does not even exist,
spirituality and all religions are only a bunch of non-sense.
Spiritual bondage and liberation is fiction or imaginary.

Only a false notion of spiritual bondage is to be removed.
Bound to a false notion only. The fool that believes himself to
be bound, is simply bound to his belief. Just this and nothing else.

'Liberation' is our very nature. We are that... It is not to be freshly acquired.
All that is necessary is to get rid of the false notion that we are bound.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

When ever you hear or read about beautiful enticing stories of so called 'Enlightenment', spiritual liberation
or self-realization, with great Gurus staring into people's eyes or bathing in their Enlightened presence
realize that it is only a hoax. It is all B.S. used to entice the simple, the weak and the dumb.

A spiritual state of Enlightenment or self-Realization does not exist. There is no such thing.
All the books you have ever read about spiritual bondage and liberation are false.

Stop believing the false to be true. Wake up.

How can anyone ever become Free when there is no bondage?
All the Gurus that sell spiritual Freedom, are paradoxically truly selling crap
that is sugar coated to entice foolish and ignorant people to believe the false to be true.

Realize that bondage does not exist and that Freedom does not exist also. Both are illusion.
No one can become anything new, spiritual or holy. How can it be, when it is only 'imaginary'?

To strive for liberation is to try in vain to drink a mirage. Can the water in a mirage ever make you wet?
There is no bondage. Remove ignorance only. Just like the water in the mirage, spiritual liberation does not exist.

Usually caught from other Seekers, followers, disciples or devotees.
The veil of ignorance is just like a virus that spreads and that is easily cached.

Spiritual ideologies are only attachments to the false, to wrong knowledge and concepts.
Love for illusion if you like. Some people have spend many years of their lives foolishly loving,
worshipping and cultivating ignorance. Seeking liberation when in fact they were never bound.

Spiritual liberation is fantasy. It is only a religious concept.
Paradoxically the Reality is not something like ignorance 
that can be caught, transmitted or acquired from others.

Reality is here and now. To know the simple Truth about oneself,
one must paradoxically forget all about spirituality and all religions.
Because one's true nature is only natural, it is not spiritual and never will be.

There is no waiting for anything spiritual or religious.
Nothing was ever lost and nothing new is to be freshly acquired.
Call off the Search. The search itself is the Trap. It is like chasing a mirage.
There never was any spiritual or religious goals to be reached. That is the Open Secret.

Just like a fish always in the Ocean searching frantically everywhere for the Ocean that was never lost.
The Sought-after Truth is no found by Seeking it. Only by understanding that it is self-revealed.

Paradoxically it is very easy to understand one's true nature simply because
it is present and self-shining naturally as one's own undeniable being.

The A,B,Consciousness.

To understand the true nature of Life or existence is to understand the Oneness.
Due to the simple fact that consciousness cannot be objectified because it is no-thing,
veiled and ignorant people mystified consciousness as being something spiritual and holy.
That is a mistake. Consciousness is nothing spiritual or holy but plain, natural and ordinary.

Just like a light bulb cannot shine of itself without the unseen power or electricity.
Consciousness is the unseen power, presence or intelligence we call Life.

Consciousness is nothing new but what we all already are and have always been naturally.
So near and so dear. Consciousness present is everyone's natural state of being.

Closer to you than even your own breath. Consciousness is what you are.
You do not have to look for true consciousness somewhere far away.

Look at your own undeniable existence right here and now.
You know that you are and you like it. That is IT.

The Living presence or power within the body.
Natural living-ness is conscious-ness.

Self-shining naturally as pure changeless awareness of being.
Everyone knows and experience consciousness directly as
one's own affectionate self, as one's own being, as 'I' am.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Call off the Search simply because to be alive and aware of being oneself
is to abide as one's true nature. Consciousness is already here.
It is undeniably present as that 'I' am you know.

The Search for anything else is a trap.

Look at yourself. You find it the moment you stop Seeking.
Not by becoming or attaining anything but by understanding.

Realize that any spiritual or religious state of consciousness never existed.
Believers will blindly believe anything you throw at them. Existence is the Reality.

Spirituality and all religions are only cultivating wrong knowledge.
All are truly ignorance camouflaged as wisdom.

Life itself is the only Reality. One's own existence is consciousness.
One's true nature or Reality is only Natural. It is nothing new to anybody.
The Reality is nothing spiritual. Spirituality and all religions are only illusion.

Wisdom is to see the false as false.
Understanding is all that is necessary to remove the veil of ignorance.
Then the simple Truth about one's true nature is naturally and effortlessly self-revealed.

Only remove ignorance.
That is all there is to be done.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Consciousness
Definition:
Alert cognitive state in which you are aware of yourself and your surroundings.
The natural state of being and remaining aware or conscious known to all as wakeful-ness is conscious-ness.

Consciousness. Being aware of yourself. Knowing that you are.
To be conscious is the natural state and activity of being aware or knowing.
In other words the natural state and effortless activity of cognizing is abiding as the Self.

To be conscious is to be the Self.
Consciousness is everyone's true nature.

If you turn toward spirituality or any religions
to know the Truth, you paradoxically will never find it.

Simply because spirituality and all religions are only the art of deception.
Spiritual and religious people are con artists selling and perpetuating ignorance.

Life, existence is consciousness and everyone's true nature.
You are Life. Life is living itself as yourself.

Consciousness is the natural state of being.

Everyone alive experience this presence of consciousness itself directly as the natural state of pure being.
The natural state of pure being is the state of being aware or awake or conscious.
That is abiding as the Self, He, the Reality or one's true nature.

The state of pure being which is common to all and which is always
experienced directly by everybody is one's true nature.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

There is no God. Spirituality and all religions are false.

To be alive and awake from sleep is to be the Self.
Life is the Self and that is one's true nature.

Understanding that to be conscious is consciousness
is all that is required to know oneself. That simple.

The experience is here and now. It is being aware of being.

If you are not asleep or in a coma, you are awake and aware of being.
Pure awareness of being or knowing that you are present translates in English as 'I' am.

The natural state of wakeful-ness or aware-ness we all experience directly as the natural state of pure being
is the state we call Realized or being Enlightened. Being aware and remaining aware is to be a so called 'buddha'.

A spiritual state of 'Enlightenment' that you read about in holy books is a hoax, it is false. It never existed.
The Reality or natural state of being awake from sleep is always abiding as one's true nature.
That is the Open Secret to Self-Realization. Wakeful-ness is aware-ness. Are you aware?

Removal of the notion that we have not realised the Self is all that is required.
We are always the Self, only we don’t realise it.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Being awake or being conscious is being the Self.
There is no spiritual holy Self to be discovered.
Being alive and aware is the experience itself.

All sentient beings are already 'buddhas'. Ordinary natural existence is the experience.
Spirituality and religions are just wrong knowledge about the Self, He, the Reality. A mistake.

All spiritual and religious people are truly ignorant people that believe the false to be true.
They do not know any better other than what they have been conditioned to believe.

The state we call Enlightenment or Realization is simply being oneself naturally.

Call off the Search. The Reality is already here.
Aren't you aware of being? That is being a 'buddha'.

Remove the veil of wrong acquired knowledge. Spirituality and religions are the only camouflage.
Being aware is being the Self. That simple. Awareness present is the natural state of being.

There is no attaining or reaching or cultivating awareness. Being aware is awareness.
To be awake or aware is the presence of awareness itself. Nothing else.

All spiritual and religious beliefs
are the only trouble. Because they are false.

The experience is always here and now. Awareness is another name for you.
Look at yourself. What you Seek is what you are right now naturally.

Everyone alive and awake from sleep is already a living 'buddha'.
That is all. Life, existence is the experience. Being is the experience.

Awareness is the expression of Life. As with water and ice.
There is no ice without water. No awareness without Life.

Only the ignorant does not know that being or existing is being that.
Life and consciousness are synonymous. Remove ignorance and voila!

Realisation is nothing to be gained afresh, it is already there.
All that is necessary is to get rid of the thought I have not realised.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The natural state.

Once you get that there never was anything new, spiritual or holy to get, you finally got it.

The only obstacle to Self-Realization is paradoxically spirituality and all religions.
All spiritual crap and religious garbage keep Seekers on a Seeking path.

After all, you do not have to cultivate being alive and aware of being.
Look at yourself. You know that you are. That is the experience. It is 'I' am.

Consciousness is the effortless ordinary state in which you are aware of yourself.
The Reality is not anything special or spiritual but natural. That is the funny paradox.

One's true nature is the exact same nature present in nature. Same living presence and intelligence.
There is nothing you have to do for the Reality to be. It is the natural state. Living-ness is conscious-ness.

It is super duper easy to know the Self, He, the Reality.
Anyone wise will tell you that no time or effort is required.

Understanding is all.

Awareness. Does it take ten, twenty or forty years of Seeking to
come to the realization that here and now you are and remain aware.

Just be aware
that you are and remain aware.
You are aware anyhow, you need not try to be.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

If you are a proud spiritual Seeker that has been
striving for years to become, reach or attain 'awareness'.
Wow, you are paradoxically very ignorant of your true nature.

Ignorance is to foolishly believe in attaining a spiritual state of 'Enlightenment'.
That belief is only for the ignorant. For dumb people that believe the false to be true.
Just like Santa Claus or the Tooth fairy, a spiritual state of 'Enlightenment' never existed.

Why cultivate ignorance? The simple Truth about one's true nature is not something
different or special that can be mystified. It is paradoxically the natural state of being.

Realize that what spirituality and all religions have to offer is crap. It is all false.
They are only selling fiction to exploit the ignorant. just this and nothing else.

Sentience or unchanging awareness is one's true nature.
Awareness present is simply being awake, aware or conscious
AKA wakeful-ness or sentience is abiding as the Self, He, the Reality.

Wisdom is knowing that simply 'being conscious' or 'being aware'
is effortlessly abiding one's true nature. Conscious-ness is 'I' am-ness.

Awareness of being: To be conscious or wakeful is to be aware of yourself.
Consciousness present is the knowing that you are. Present awareness.
Consciousness is being aware of yourself or 'I' am.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Everybody knows consciousness as 'I' am. 'I' am is that. Being aware of being.
Consciousness is nothing new or fancy. Plain common to all and natural.

It (consciousness) is pure awareness of being.
It (consciousness) is that 'I' am you know so well.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Are you conscious? Are you aware of being?
'I' am is certain? Voila! You are so called 'Enlightened'.

You are the Self AKA consciousness itself. Common to all and always experienced directly
by everybody as the natural state of being cognizant, aware or awake. That is all there is to realize.

Look at yourself here and now. You know that you are. You are conscious and therefore aware of being.
Consciousness is indeed present. That is the Self, He, the Reality and one's true nature.
Who said it was hard or difficult to know the Self. Look at yourself. Voila!

To be conscious is the natural state of sentience or cognizance we all like to be.
If you have been brainwashed to foolishly believe that consciousness is yet to be
attained, cultivated or transmitted by some scammer looking holy, you are an idiot.

Only the fictitious veil or cloud or camouflage of spiritual and religious garbage mystify
this natural presence and expression of existence as being something new, spiritual and holy.

The Reality: The fact is that paradoxically it is nothing new, spiritual or holy but natural and ordinary.
Spiritual and religious people are only selling water by the River.

Exploitation of ignorance is another name
for spirituality and religions. They are the poison, not the cure.

Know Thyself. Who am 'I'?

'I' am is the answer to the question. Awareness of being oneself is this consciousness itself.
Understanding what the Self or the Reality simply is, is all that is required to know oneself.

Who am 'I'? After all, the only fact you are sure of
is that you are. 'I' am is certain.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

'I' am, 'I' am, 'I' am. Awareness of being oneself is 'I' am.
To know the Self or one's true nature that some people call God
is so simple that it is laughable. Be still and know that 'I' am is that.

Know not become. Understanding is all.

Consciousness present is being aware of yourself.
It is that 'I' am you know. That is what the fuss is all about.
All about being oneself. Nothing spiritual or holy. Plain and ordinary.

Simple changeless being is one's true nature.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

One's true nature is natural.
Spirituality is only for the ignorant.

To be or not to be? Who is not aware of being oneself?
Everyone conscious is aware of being. Everybody knows and says 'I' am.

To be conscious is consciousness. To be aware is awareness. That is one's true nature.

At one stage you will laugh at yourself
for trying to discover the Self.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

It is all so laughable. It is like a big Joke.
Bunch of idiots made up an imaginary concept they call God.
And followers believed in their crap and started to worship illusion.

Consciousness is nothing spiritual, religious or holy. It never was
It is the natural presence and effortless expression of Life itself.

Consciousness is being oneself naturally.

The precious presence of existence. Natural and ordinary to everybody.
In other words, simply being yourself naturally is being the Self.

The state we call Realisation is simply being oneself.
Not knowing anything or becoming anything.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

You are the experience itself. Here and now you are conscious. Here and now you are that.
Consciousness is being awake from sleep. Wakefulness is pure awareness of being.

The waking state is the natural state of being and remaining aware.
Aware-ness is wakeful-ness. The knowing that you are.

Simplicity itself.

The best description for consciousness is to be conscious and aware of being oneself.
Consciousness present is sentience. To naturally be conscious is to be aware of yourself. It is 'I' am.

Being aware of being oneself naturally is sentience or cognizance. That is abiding as the Self.
That is alone the consciousness that has been pointed to by the wise for millennia.

One's true nature is ordinary common to all consciousness.
It is simply being conscious. Experienced directly as awareness of being.
No one ever fails to experience consciousness directly. It is the knowing that you are.

Consciousness is the alert cognitive state in which you are aware of yourself.
How can you kiss this Beauty? Can you kiss yourself on your own lips? Of course not.
Consciousness is no-thing. It cannot be objectified or denied. It is the natural state of being.

The Reality is not spiritual or holy but paradoxically natural and ordinary.
Consciousness, cognizance is the natural activity of knowing.

Everybody knows and says 'I' am all day long.
Consciousness is that 'I' am you know. So plain and so ordinary.
Nothing new, special or far away. To be conscious is that consciousness itself.

Consciousness is pure being. It is 'I' am. Consciousness is you are. The Self is you are.
So near and so dear. Closer than close to oneself. Is there anyone who is not aware of himself?

Forget all about the spiritual and religious crap you have been swallowing for years.
That is a must if you want to know the real Self. Illusion or Reality? Choose wisely.

Spirituality and all religions do not point to this simple truth.
They only camouflage it will false ideology, wrong knowledge and beliefs.

Used to entice and confuse Seekers to exploit them for either gratification, sex or money.

All the Buddhas you will ever see on the Road are just scammers or frauds pretending to be holy.
The 'diamond' in your pocket is simply plain ordinary wakefulness or common awareness.
Only the search for a Godly or spiritual Self is a trap. It is just made up mambo, jambo.

So easy. That is the fun part of knowing the simple Truth.
You are consciousness. Here and now you are that.
Being aware of yourself is that.

Call off the Search.

When have you ever lost yourself?
You are undeniably aware of being. 'I' am is always with you.
'I' am represent pure awareness of being. 'I' am represent the knowing that you are.

The Self (consciousness) you seek to know is truly yourself.
Your supposed ignorance causes you needless grief
like that of the ten foolish men who grieved

at the loss of the tenth man,
who was never lost.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Only the veiled or the ignorant who does not know himself
believes that the Self is something new or spiritual that is yet to be acquired.

These people are idiots that have accepted self-appointed Gurus and religious leaders
to be speaking and sharing the Truth. When in fact they have been lying and conning them.

Remove ignorance only.
Consciousness is awareness of being.

You gain nothing because you lost nothing.
To know the simple Truth, understanding is realizing.

You are conscious because you know that you are. Present awareness.
You know that you are because you are conscious. One cannot negate one's own self.

The cognizing activity of knowing that you are present is abiding as the Self.
One cannot say 'I' am not or 'I' do not exist and negate one's own being.
Everybody knows that they are. Everybody knows and says 'I' am.

The experience is here and now. One cannot deny one’s own self.
Existence is the same as happiness and happiness is the same as being.
Why should one seek it?

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The ultimate truth is so simple.
Remove ignorance with understanding.

The paradox. The Reality is ordinary. Thou art that already.
All sentient beings are always abiding as consciousness.
Natural and effortless. It is everyone's true nature.

We call it the Oneness simply because it is the same presence of Life or existence everywhere.
Consciousness is the natural presence of intelligence that is expressing and governing all things.

Present here and now. Understanding that being conscious is itself
abiding as one's true nature is all that is required.

There is nothing new to reach, attain or become.
What you are looking for is what you already are naturally.
You do no have to kick start or cultivate awareness or being aware.

If know for certain that you are not asleep or un-conscious right now realize
that you are therefore undeniably effortlessly abiding as that. Because you are aware.

Present awareness.

Consciousness is the knowing that you are present.
Natural state of being. Consciousness present is always first hand.
The Self, He, the Reality is being and remaining aware or being conscious.

There is no goals to be reached. Nothing to be attained.
There is no spiritual bondage and there is no spiritual liberation.
The experience is being alive and aware. Everything else is made up crap.

Here and now you are that.

When you Seek it, you are only turning away from it.
Spirituality and all religions have nothing to do with the Reality.
Being, existence or consciousness is knowing that you are. It is 'I' am.

Abiding as one's true nature is simply being conscious and aware of being oneself.
There is nothing new, mystical, magical or special about consciousness. It is natural.

The experience is always here and now. Look at yourself. Being oneself is the experience.
The spiritual and religious stigma that consciousness is in anyway spiritual or holy is a trap.

Consciousness present is the natural activity of being cognizant or aware i.e aware-ness.
As with water and ice. Consciousness present is the natural expression of existence.

Awareness of being. The knowing that you are alive. Here and now you are that.
To be alive and aware of being oneself is this consciousness present. It is 'I' am.
Closer to you than your own breath. Life is consciousness and the Precious.

What have you to wait for when it is already here and now?
You have to only look & see. Look at yourself, at your own being.

You know that you are and you like it. Abandon all imagining, that is all.

Do not rely on time, time is death, who waits dies.
Life is now only!
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Remove ignorance only.

There is no waiting for anything. Being is the experience.
Knowing that you are. The Reality is at once being and consciousness. It is 'I' am.

Are you aware of being alive? Are you aware of being yourself?
To know the Self or consciousness. Look at yourself. You know that you are.
Undeniably present as pure awareness of being. Consciousness is synonymous with 'I' am.

Consciousness AKA the Self, He, the Reality is the cognitive state in which you are aware of yourself.

Is there anyone who is not aware of himself? Each one knows,
but yet does not know the Self (consciousness).
A strange paradox!
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Call off the Search.
Look at yourself. You are already that.
You already are the Self. Aren't you conscious?

Wisdom alone is Freedom.

While the Spiritual Seeker is Seeking the 'Light' or 'Enlightenment'.
All self-appointed Gurus and religious leaders or teachers will paradoxically keep
their followers, their devotees, their students, their disciples and Seekers unto a path of Darkness.

So called Enlightenment or Self-Realization is to simply remove the veil or camouflage of ignorance.
Understanding is the best medicine to remove all ignorance. Nothing else is necessary.

Only remove ignorance.
That is all there is to be done.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Of course most Seekers are kept in the Dark
and are told not to understand consciousness but to keep quiet.
That way they are kept on a endless Seeking path to remain veiled with ignorance.

If you don't understand this consciousness itself, then you are in bondage
when you will understand what this (consciousness) is, then that is liberation.
Paradoxically you will realize that you are already liberated.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Spirituality and all religions are businesses and organizations design to exploit the ignorant.
Spirituality and all religions are simply the exploitation of ignorance. All are self-serving scams.

All the Wise have understood only. Wisdom is understanding.
Spiritual Freedom are only businesses of selling water by the River to the ignorant.
There is no becoming or achieving anything. There never was. All are only hoaxes and scams.

There is no such thing as either spiritual bondage and of course spiritual liberation. It is simply imaginary.
One only foolishly 'believes' that there is bondage, because they have read it in a book somewhere.

After all, who told you that you are bound, and why did you believe them?
Look for your chains. Find out what binds you and you will good laugh at yourself.

That is all Freedom is. The removal of a false notion of being bound. Nothing else.
Not knowing that there is no spiritual bondage is in fact the only bondage. It is ignorance.

Spiritual and religious people do not know that ignorance is what they have been cultivating for years.
The only people that foolishly strive to become Free, are clueless people that are ignorant of the simple Truth.

Call off the Search. Get rid of ignorance only. Remove ignorance with understanding.
The obstruction is ignorance. Once you understand, ignorance dissolves instantly.
To the ones that are wise and wish to understand. It is very simple.

All that we need do is to remove the obstruction.
That which is eternal is not known to be so because of ignorance.
Ignorance is the obstruction. Get over this ignorance and all will be well.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The false cannot stand up to investigation. Have a look.
That is the easiest way to get rid of a false notion of being bound.
Psychological only. Anyone that believes is bound, is only bound to that 'belief'.

The funny paradox! Ignorant people will foolishly spend their whole life Seeking spiritual liberation when
paradoxically there is no bondage whatsoever. Imaginary only. They only 'believe' that there is. That is all.

It is like being hypnotized or brainwashed to 'believe' the false to be true.
To 'wake up' is to realize that spiritual bondage and liberation does not exist.

Wrong acquired knowledge or religious conditioning is the cause of all mischief.

Being oneself naturally is always abiding as one's true nature.
That alone is the experience. Just this and nothing else.

The state we call Realisation is simply being oneself.
Not knowing anything or becoming anything.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

There are no spiritual goals to be reached. There is nothing new or holy to be attained.
Freedom is simply the removal of ignorance. Understanding is Realizing.

Only the Search for spiritual liberation is a Trap.
Understanding is the best medicine.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

Removing ignorance is all
that is required to know one's true nature.

Understanding is Realizing. What is one's true nature? Describing the Self.
Life, consciousness, existence, being aware and 'I' am is itself abiding as one's true nature.

Lively and buoyant. The Self is an activity. The natural activity of being sentient, cognizant or
aware as well as the knowing that you are. Being and consciousness is abiding as one's true nature.

Reality is at once being and consciousness.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Consciousness is indeed always undeniably present as unchanging awareness.
After all, 'I' am is always with you as the constant knowing that you are. As present awareness.

Everyone alive or all sentient beings never fail to experience the Self directly as being alive and aware of being.
Consciousness is the natural state of being awake from sleep. That is all. Consciousness is awareness.

Aware-ness is the natural state of being and remaining aware all day long common to all.

Realize that you are conscious, awake and therefore aware of being and that is IT.
Wakeful-ness is 'I' am-ness. That is alone is abiding as one's true nature.

What can be easier than that?

What you need is to be aware of being aware.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

You are awareness. Awareness is the natural state of being aware.
Being aware, that is one's true nature. Awareness is one's true nature.

That is all there is to understand to know thyself. 
If you foolishly believe that the Self or your true nature is anything else,
that is only because you have read too many books and sat with too many spiritual people.

Spiritual and religious people will camouflage this simple Truth. They do not want you to know that
the natural state of being aware just as you are here and now and have always been naturally is your true nature.

Would you suck up and buy Freedom from some religious or spiritual A-hole if you knew
that you are and have always been abiding as your true self or real nature all along?
Some ignorant people only falsely 'imagine' that awareness is something else.

We are 'imagining' we are bound and are making various, strenuous attempts to become free.
We will be surprised that we were frantically trying to attain something,
which we have always been and are.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Forget everything and you are there.

After all, prove it to yourself. If you pause thoughts for a few moments, realize that what
remain effortlessly present and self-revealed is sentience, cognizance or unchanging awareness.

Just like all clouds come and go on the unchanging Sky. Pause thoughts and surely they will
instantly disappear but 'you' undeniably remain present as unchanging awareness itself.

Pause thoughts and voila!

You are and remain aware. That is the awareness itself.
So near and so dear. Awareness or one's true nature is nothing new.
Subtle and unchanging, awareness is simply overlooked until clearly pointed to.

Awareness is what we all are naturally.
It is nothing new. It is the natural state of being.

Being aware is awareness. That is the best kept Secret. Thou art That already.
Not knowing or ignorance is the only obstacle to be removed for anyone to know oneself.

For example, if you are a long time spiritual Seeker and have been meditating or practicing spiritual 
rituals and exercise, you got screwed. You have been kept on Seeking path of darkness or ignorance.

No time, practice or effort is ever required to know one's true nature.
Awareness is common to all. Being aware is awareness.
That is everyone's true nature.

You gain nothing because you lost nothing.

That is the Funny paradox!

Whatever you have ever read or have been told
to be spiritual or a religious presence or power is illusion.

Didn't anyone tell you this simple Truth about your real Self or your true nature?
Wakeful-ness or plain ordinary aware-ness is synonymous with abiding as the real Self, He, the Reality.

The Self, awareness or one's true nature has never been anything new, spiritual or holy, but ordinary.
Unchanging awareness or simply being aware or awake from sleep is common to everybody.

That is the Secret shining in plain sight. Thou art that. Awareness is another name for you.
Awareness is the most obvious, plain and ordinary. It is the natural state of being.
Being aware is the state of pure being common to everybody. So simple.

Present here and now. Look at yourself. Are you aware right now?
That is the experience itself. It is simply being aware.

It is very easy to know the Reality.

Just be aware
that you are and remain aware.
You are aware anyhow, you need not try to be.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

See the false as false.
Discerning between fiction and Reality.

Did you know that the false notion or illusion of separation, duality and bondage
that is falsely perpetuated by spiritual and religious people is in fact the only bondage?
That is right! If you 'believe' you are bound, realize that you are only bound to that 'belief'.

There is no bondage. Ignorant people only 'believe' that there is.
That is all bondage truly is, just a false notion or illusion.
Look for your chains and they will not be found.

If you were told that you are bound and you believe it. Oops.
Too bad for you. You fell into a trap of ignorance.

The fact is that there is no bondage.
Yet spiritual and religious people spend their 
whole life striving to become Free. How stupid is that?

It is just like a fish in the water who is crying that he is thirsty.
Realize that to be alive, to exist, to be aware of being naturally is the Reality.

Wisdom is understanding or realizing that there is no bondage. Wisdom is Freedom.
The concept of spiritual or religious liberation is a hoax and a myth, it is false and made up.
Spiritual and religious people are only selling water by the River to the veiled and the ignorant.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

God only Loves you for your money. Everything else God does not care.
The Religious concept of God is only a spiritual carrot that is used
to confuse and entice Seekers to open up their wallets.

What else would it be when God, Heaven and Hell, past lives and reincarnations,
bondage and liberation are only imaginary? Religious crap only found inside many books.

All Religions are only the exploitation of fictitious or imaginary concepts and false beliefs. That is all.
Love for illusion. Spiritual and religious people are only doomed to their strong attachments to the false.

Paradoxically Freedom from all bondage is simply
Freedom from all that is spiritual or religious, because it is false.
The Reality is always present here and now as Life itself. Existence is the Divine.

The Truth about spirituality and all religions.
The exploitation of ignorance.

Do you ever wonder why nowadays so many self-appointed spiritual Gurus
that claim to have the Secret to enlightenment, salvation or Freedom,
always ends up having something to do with a book to be bought?

Even though all have web sites to Freely share their Secret to Freedom.
I find it funny that Freedom becomes a product to sell and a business.
Perhaps their 'Secret' is only a camouflage scheme to sell a book?

Be wise and find out. Ask them.
After all, does a Tree charge anyone for his shade.

Freedom is Free, how can the simple Truth ever be monetary?

No one wise has ever charged others for Freedom. Only scammers.
Just like a Gift. Freedom is not something to be sold but shared Freely.

After all, Freedom is not to be freshly acquired. It is what we all are already.
Know the Truth! All religions and spirituality are the exploitation of ignorance.

There is no one more veiled and more foolish than a spiritual or religious person.
They have been hypnotized or conditioned to foolishly believe the false to be true.

Bondage is only psychological. Spiritual bondage and liberation does not exist.
Only fools 'believe' in that crap. The 'belief' alone is the only bondage.

Question, investigate and find out for yourself what is Real.
Reality surely isn't spiritual or religious.

That is the best kept Secret.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

Human beings foolishly believe that they are special beings. But that is false.
The false notion or ignorant religious concept that God created man as his own image is idiocy.

The Reality is that man is only a 'monkey in suit' or a great Ape, just this and nothing else. Homo Sapiens.
Only part of the animal Kingdom. Human beings are just another specie of sentient beings.

All sentient beings are a product of consciousness
which is the natural expression of Life and evolution.

Life creates Life. Life lives on Life. Life is living itself naturally.
That is the Reality that is undeniably present within your own dwelling.

Everywhere you look you see its expression. Some call it nature and others God.

Realize that there is no religious God of man's creation. It is a product of fiction and superstition.
It is only an ignorant ideology that man has cultivated for millennia to feel superior and better of himself.

Everyone's true nature is consciousness. The creator and livingness expressing naturally as all sentient beings
is the exact same natural presence of intelligence, existence or Life. Life is the Precious. Life itself is the
'Diamond in your pocket' so to speak. That alone is the Oneness. Everything else is Bullshit.

There is nobody special or spiritual. There is only Life.
Consciousness is the true nature of Life itself.

Life is the Oneness.

Take for example different patterns
like a ring, a bangle or a chain that are made of Gold.

Gold itself remains the real nature of each pattern appearing different.
The shape is different but the essence is the same. The essence does not change.

Here and now you and everyone else are that. Consciousness is the true nature of all that exists.
Everyone alive naturally abides as this consciousness itself. It is the natural state of being common to all.

The experience is here and now. Beating your heart and shining through your eyes.
Life is Now only. The experience is being or existing presently.

Consciousness present is 'I' am. Knowing that you are.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Consciousness present is the simple fact of one's own being.
Existence is the Reality. So near and so dear.
Here and now 'I' am needs no proof.

Reality is not to be achieved. Call off the Search. The experience is always here and now.
Everyone alive and aware of being oneself is undeniably abiding as that Living-ness naturally.
Pure awareness of being. That is what 'I' am represents. Consciousness present is being alive and aware.

Simple, subtle, common and ordinary. Consciousness is not anything new, special, spiritual or extra-ordinary.
Subtler than space. Pure existence or consciousness is no-thing. It cannot either be objectified or be denied.

Great intellectuals, philosophers and scientists alike cannot know the simple Truth. It is impossible.
Spiritual, intellectual, philosophers and scientists always point away from this simple Truth.

After all, prove it to yourself. Keep on reading spiritual and scientific books if you desire 
to remain veiled and ignorant. There is no end to it. Because it works in reverse.

The paradox is that all acquired knowledge is paradoxically the greatest ignorance.
Consciousness or one's true nature which is natural intelligence or sentience is not to be
confused with the intellect which is nothing other than acquired and cultivated knowledge.

All the wise beings that have known the simple Truth about existence and
have walked the Earth have never claimed to be great intellectuals or scientists,
but simple people. All have pointed to the ordinary and the very simple. To Life itself.

Paradoxically the ultimate Truth and absolute Reality is very simple and ordinary. It is nothing new.
Consciousness is common to all and always experienced directly by everyone alive.
The experience is simply being oneself. It is pure awareness of being.

Consciousness or existence present is 'I' am.
That is all there is to realize.

The Secret and mystery of Life is undeniably present here and now.
You are Life. The sought-after truth is found by not Seeking it but by being it.

Ignorant people believe that they are so important and so special. Extra-ordinary.
If you want to know your real nature, you just have to take your head out of your ass.

Forget spirituality and know that Life alone is the real Oneness and the real Precious. Nothing else.
There is nobody holy, spiritual or extra-ordinary. Everyone alive is the same essence of existence.

Understanding is all. The Reality is being. Being alive is abiding as that.
Everyone alive knows that existence itself is present because 'I' am is certain.

If you believe that consciousness is anyway special or spiritual, you are a blind fool.
Life, existence or consciousness which is everyone's true nature or natural state is natural.

That is the Secret self-shining naturally in plain sight as one's own being. Call off the Search.

What have you to wait for when it is already here and now?
You have to only look & see. Look at yourself, at your own being.

You know that you are and you like it. Abandon all imagining, that is all.

Do not rely on time, time is death, who waits dies.
Life is now only!
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

The natural state of being.

Consciousness is everyone's true nature. Being alive and aware is abiding as that.
To know the Self, realize that your own existence is the experience itself.

The Secret to Spiritual Enlightenment is that there is no such thing.
Spiritual liberation is only a made up Religious concept.

As the old wisdom and saying goes;
if you see a buddha on the Road
kill him. He is only a fraud.

In other words, the loving compassionate beloved spiritual Guru,
Saint, Teacher, Jnani or Buddha etc, that you will ever come across on your life journey
is truly a stinking lying scammer that is only disguised as a holy spiritual being. Nothing else.

Why do ignorant religious and spiritual people meditate? Simple.
They foolishly believe they have to go somewhere beyond a so called 'mind' to achieve
enlightenment or spiritual Freedom. Of course that is only wrong acquired religious knowledge or B.S..

What mind? Can you show it to me? If you look for it, you will not find it because it does not exist. It is a myth.
It is a phantom or an illusion. It is only an imaginary un-investigated concept of separation and duality.

See the false as false. Understand the Oneness or Non-duality.

All there is ever-present as oneself is consciousness itself. Everyone is already beyond the so called 'mind'.
After all, what remains present when you pause thoughts? Unchanging awareness or this pure consciousness itself.

What people call 'mind' is truly consciousness itself or the Self. Thoughts appear and disappear on consciousness.
Pause thoughts and consciousness alone remains self-revealed as one's thoughtless true nature and reality.
Thoughts are exactly just like passing clouds that naturally come and go on the unchanging Sky.

Make no effort, your effort is the bondage.
All that is required to realize the Self (consciousness) is to be still.
What can be easier than that?
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

If you pause thoughts for a few moments
you remain present and aware as your real self.

Present awareness. Who is always present and aware when there are thoughts present
and of course when there are no thoughts present? 'I' am. Consciousness is that 'I' am.

Realize that being aware or conscious is abiding as the Self or the Reality.
Be still and only thoughts disappear but the real 'you' always remains
present as unchanging awareness which is this consciousness itself.

There is nothing new to be acquired or special to discover. There never was.
Recognizing that simply being and remaining aware is effortlessly always abiding
as the Self and that alone is one's thoughtless true nature is the so called Self-Realization.

Thoughts come and thoughts go but awareness does not come or go anywhere.
Unchanging awareness is simply being conscious or sentient. That is all.
Being aware is the witnessing, cognizing or knowing presence itself.

What you need is to be aware of being aware.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Be still and voila!
Realize that you are and remain aware.

The activity of 'being aware'.
Awareness remains unchanging all day long,
this unchanging awareness is wakefulness. One and the same.

Being aware is being the Self or one's thoughtless unchanging Reality.
So called Freedom from all bondage is that simple. Who said it was hard or difficult?

Just be aware
that you are and remain aware.
You are aware anyhow, you need not try to be.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

The Self or one's thoughtless true nature
is what everyone already is abiding naturally.
To be aware is this unchanging presence of awareness.

If you were told or mislead to foolishly believe that 'unchanging awareness' is anything else.
Realize that you have been lied to and keep on a so called Seeking spiritual path to nowhere.

Unchanging awareness is not something new, spiritual or religious but natural and ordinary.
The natural activity of consciousness itself is Life and awareness.

All sentient beings abide as that.
If you are aware you are awareness.

You are awareness. Awareness is another name for you.
Since you are awareness, there is no need to attain or cultivate it.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Discern between Reality and fiction. Spirituality and all religions are only the art of make 'believe'.
There is no such a thing as a religious spiritual presence some people call God or an enlightened person.
You can pray until you turn blue, no one will answer you. There is nobody there. A God of religion is fiction.

The funny paradox is that spirituality and all religions are only a band wagon for scam artists and liars.
All spiritual and religious people you will ever come across are not what they are pretending to be.

Selling water by the River. Do not be fooled, spirituality is a business. Nothing else.
Didn't anyone tell you? Spirituality is crap and fantasy. It is simply illusion.
There is no one to pray to and there is nothing to meditate upon.

Any concept of a soul in need of Freedom or salvation
is just a fictitious religious concept. There is no such thing.

The Reality is Life.

Life is nothing spiritual but natural.
The true nature of Life is consciousness.

Therefore to be alive and aware of being is to abide as
that presence of consciousness itself. It is 'I' am. So simple.

Self-appointed spiritual Gurus may want to trick you in foolishly
believing that there is a before and an after. But that is all B.S.
They are just trying to sell you something imaginary.

Spiritual people are scammers.
Enlightenment is a hoax.

Spiritual Freedom, liberation or enlightenment does not exist.
It is just an imaginary spiritual carrot that is used to entice and confuse
the veiled, the simple, the weak and the ignorant in believing the false to be true.

Freedom is always here. Reality is always here.
There is no becoming, achieving or attaining anything.

Here and now you are that.

The natural state.

Being alive and awake from sleep or being aware is abiding as that. That is IT.
Not knowing that being alive and aware is abiding as one's true nature
or this consciousness itself is the ignorance that needs to be removed.

Understand that the Reality is being alive which is consciousness.
That is what Life is. You gain nothing because you lost nothing.

Everyone alive is already and always abiding as that.
Consciousness is everyone's true nature. It is always here.

Present here and now. Look at yourself. Look at your own being.
You know that you are. 'I' am is certain. That is IT. Awareness of being.

Consciousness present is pure awareness of being. Everyone alive knows 'I' am.
The fact of one's own being is not fiction but the undeniable Reality. Reality is 'I' am.

Be content with what you are sure of. And the only thing you can be sure of is 'I' am.
The only fact you are sure of is that you are. The only clue you have is your certainty of being.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Freedom from spirituality and religion is Freedom from all bondage.
After all, who told you that you were bound and why did you believe them?

Spiritual and religious people are like blind sheep that are told not to question, but to believe.
They will believe anything and follow anyone. They believe the false to be true. It is called ignorance.

Freedom is only removing a false notion of being bound. That is all there is to be done. Just this.
Bondage is psychological only. Bondage is just a belief. One believes that there is bondage.

Spiritual and religious people believe that they are bound when in fact there is no bondage.
Just like hypnotism or brainwashing. These people only falsely imagine that they are.
The ones who adopt a religion or spirituality only fall into a trap of ignorance.

All organized religions and their denominations
are truly B.S. that only catered to delusional people.

If for example you take look at organized Eastern religion.
They are simply based on the delusional or illusory concept of duality or 'ego'.

But if you investigate you will come to the conclusion that 'ego' or duality never existed.
Ego is just a false notion of duality or false belief foolishly accepted by ignorant followers to be true.

Another funny one is if you are one of these foolish people that truly believe a 'blue man' really existed
and created a religion after it. Then realize that you are either stupid or delusional or both. It is not true.

When some nut case pretending to be spiritual or holy comes to you with the great wisdom
of a 'blue man' that never existed, that tells you a lot about what you are truly shoving down your throat.
People are conditioned to believe the false or illusion to be true from childhood, without questioning what is real.

All religions are just like that. All are simply pointing to the false or illusion only. Not to the Reality.
Paradoxically to know the Reality is to stop believing in religious
and spiritual crap and start 'knowing' the Truth.

How to know the Truth?
By having an intelligent look at yourself.
Find out who am 'I', by getting to know your real nature.

If you investigate yourself, you will realize that there is no 'ego', no duality and no separation.
There is no bondage and no liberation. Only delusional or spiritual people believe the false to be true.

To know one's true nature is very easy.
Realize that to be conscious is consciousness itself.
Consciousness is one's thoughtless true nature and Reality.

Present here and now as one's own being.
No one has to meditate, pray or try to cultivate consciousness in anyway.
Spiritual concepts and their stupid practices are only for the veiled and the ignorant. All are B.S.

Sentience or awareness is the natural activity of being awake from sleep. It is consciousness.
Consciousness or wakefulness is simply pure awareness of being or the knowing that you are. That is all.

Being awake from sleep is being aware or awareness. That alone is abiding as the Self.
That is what this consciousness simply is. It is the knowing that you are.

When you are un-conscious there is no 'I' am.
Awareness of being oneself is wakeful-ness or aware-ness.

'I' am or knowing that you are, is synonymous with wakefulness or awareness of being. Nothing else.
Realize that simply being aware and remaining aware or wakefulness is abiding as one's true nature.

One's true nature is nothing special or spiritual. Only the veiled and the ignorant foolishly believe
that the Self or one's true nature is anything other than simply being alive and aware of being.

To know the Self or one's true nature is so easy. Forget everything spiritual or religious and there you are.
Consciousness or wakefulness is pure awareness of being. Knowing that you are. It is being yourself.
That is what 'I' am truly represents. Consciousness present is pure awareness of being.

If you are aware of being present as yourself right here and right now or simply are awake from sleep,
realize that this wakeful-ness or aware-ness alone is this presence of consciousness itself AKA the Self.

The natural state of being common to all. Sentience, cognizance, awareness is an activity.
The natural activity of being and remaining aware or unchanging awareness. That is all is simply is.

All the spiritual and religious people that are selling illusion, will never tell you that, but only
entice and confuse ignorant Seekers with false theories, stories and imaginary concepts.

Idiots will sell Seekers silence and others even more phony will sell them science fiction.
It is all sugar coated crap to sell them a book or a teaching.
It is all ignorance camouflaged as wisdom.

It all works in reverse. The more popular a spiritual concept is acquired from books and
others about the Infinite Self or the Reality the more ignorance it truly is. It is all a paradox.

Call off the Search. You already are at the destination you have never left. There is nothing new to get.
Only removing the veil or camouflage of ignorance with understanding is all that is necessary.
Consciousness is just another name for being you. You are that Living-ness.

Present here and now

Look at yourself. Look at your own being.
Life is the consciousness that is being pointed to. Existence.
The natural activity of being alive and aware or sentience is this consciousness itself.

Consciousness is nothing new, special or spiritual but the most common, plain and ordinary.
Consciousness is what we all are naturally already. We call it sentience or Life. It is present in everyone.

Just like water and ice. There could not be ice present without water present. Consciousness is the essence of Life.
The nature of Life is consciousness, therefore all that exist is consciousness in essence. It is the Oneness.
Consciousness is the living-ness that is beating your heart and shining through your eyes naturally.

If you were told that consciousness is something spiritual, you have been lied to.

Consciousness is natural. It is one's true nature.

Only spiritual and religious freaks will camouflage this natural presence of consciousness as being
something special, spiritual and holy, only because they are ignorant of the simple Truth.

We call this crap spirituality or mythology. Reality is the actually of being.
Consciousness is always present. No one alive is ever apart from consciousness.
Being is the experience. Everyone alive is already the Self or this consciousness itself.

'I' am is at once being and consciousness.
Awareness of being is 'I' am. It is the natural state.

Consciousness is not something to be discovered tomorrow.
The experience is always here and now. Being alive and aware
is the experience itself we call Life, existence and consciousness.

The ignorant calls consciousness God. The wise calls this presence of consciousness Life.
Consciousness is the Living-ness and presence of awareness that is naturally shining as everybody.

Consciousness present is the natural state of being or existence that is common to everyone alive.
Forget looking for something spiritual and have a look at the natural. That is where the answer is.

You do not objectify or gain consciousness. It is impossible.
You do not raise or cultivate consciousness.

You are consciousness.

Self-shining in plain sight all along as one's own being.
The answer to who am 'I', is consciousness and you are that.

One's true nature is natural. No one ever fails to experience the presence
of this consciousness itself directly as one's own existence, as one's own being.

Always present closer to you than your own breath. Consciousness is Life, existence, being.
Sentience is the experience. Being alive and aware of being. Consciousness is 'I' am.

No one can deny that consciousness is present.
No one can say 'I' do not exist or 'I' am not.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The Reality is at once being and consciousness.
To be alive and conscious is to know that you are. It is 'I' am.

Consciousness present is pure awareness of being. Everyone knows 'I' am.
Knowing that you are not dead but in fact alive and kicking here and now is 'I' am.

'I' am that 'I' am. 'I' am is what is being pointed as the Real-'I'-ty.
Being is consciousness. 'I' am is that Reality. It is very simple and ordinary.

After all, can anyone sane negate one's own self and claim that there is no one present?
One cannot deny one's own self. One's own plain ordinary self is the Self AKA consciousness.

The experience is here and now. One cannot deny one’s own self.
Existence is the same as happiness and happiness is the same as being.
Why should one seek it?

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

There is no spiritual bondage or of course there is no spiritual liberation either.
There is only removing ignorance with common sense and understanding.

Understanding is the best medicine.

Spirituality is the poison not the cure. It is wrong and false knowledge that
are only pointing to illusion. Reality is not spiritual but the actually of being.

Life is what is happening here and now presently while people
are chasing after theories, spiritual carrots and ideology.

That is why they miss it. The only obstacle to be removed is not knowing
that being alive and aware of being oneself is abiding as one's true nature.

Realize that what you Seek is not something new or spiritual.
It is what you are already. Consciousness is existence.

One cannot deny one's own existence.
'I' am is certain. That is what consciousness is.

Instead of looking for the spiritual, simply have a look
at the natural and you will effortlessly understand this Oneness.

Consciousness is simply the natural state of being common to everybody.

Only the search for a spiritual Self perpetuates a false notion of separation and duality.
Forget spirituality and get to know the Reality. Because it is not fictitious or spiritual but natural.

Present here and now.

Look at yourself. Look at your own being
Are you conscious right now? Are you aware of being?

That undeniable awareness of being or knowing that you are
is the presence of consciousness we call the Self. It is nothing new.

To be conscious is this consciousness itself. That alone is the absolute Reality.
To be conscious is the experience. That is abiding as one's true nature.

What can be more ordinary and simple than this?

The ultimate Truth is so simple.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

Understanding what consciousness simply is,
is what we call Freedom from all bondage. It is the removal of ignorance.
Spiritual and religious people do not want Seekers to know this simple Truth about the Reality.

I laugh when I hear self-appointed Gurus and spiritual Teachers tell ignorant Seekers inside
their self-help books, retreats and workshops to all people desperately Seeking spiritual enlightenment
that the Lord, the Infinite Self, He, the Oneness, the Reality or this pure consciousness cannot be understood.

When in fact all that anyone can ever do is understand only. There is no becoming or attaining anything.
Obviously the one who plays the spiritual Guru does not know the simple Truth, just selling ignorance.

What spiritual and religious people are preaching as Truth to others is paradoxically false.

All self-appointed Gurus and spiritual Teachers out there are just like parrots.
Mining through other people books to make up a Teaching to sell to others.
They do not know anything. They just pretend to know to attract Seekers.

Many of them pick up wrong knowledge from others and therefore perpetuate 
a false notion of bondage and liberation. Keeping an illusion, a hoax and a myth alive.

Why do they do what they do?

Spiritual Gurus or Teachers will always have the need of blind sheep. They do not sell Freedom.
Cultivating and selling ignorance is their business. Spurting book after book is what they do.

Know the simple Truth. Understanding is Realizing and that alone is what true Freedom is.
After all, spiritual bondage and liberation is only psychological. One only 'believes' in it.

There is no spiritual liberation. There is no spiritual enlightenment.
Only the veiled and the ignorant believe that they are bound.
It is like an optical illusion, a false assumption.

Just like a rope on a road is falsely believed to be a snake.
Upon closer investigation the snake is revealed to simply be a rope.

False imagination.

Just like being bound to an imaginary rope.
There is no bondage and of course there is no liberation either.
Due to wrong acquired knowledge, ignorant people only 'imagine' that they are bound.

Therefore all that needs to be done for Freedom from all bondage
is to remove the false idea, false belief or false notion of being bound.

See the false as false. The very first step for so called 'Freedom' is to question everything.
Unless you do that, you will never know the Truth. One must discern between illusion and the Reality.

Question all your acquired spiritual and religious beliefs.

Question your beloved Guru, deity or priest,
but most of all, question yourself.

Who am 'I'?

Know thyself. It is very easy. That is the funny paradox.
No time or effort of any kind is required to know one's true nature.

Only common sense. Question or investigate what is Real. That is all that is necessary.
First realize that all religions and all spiritual Gurus are wrong.
Unless you realize that, you cannot move forward.

The false cannot stand up to investigation. Inquire and see.
If you have a look, you will realize that spirituality and religions are all B.S.

First thing first. Realize that there is no higher consciousness or multiple levels of consciousness.
There is no quantum consciousness or any individualized consciousness and all that non-sense.

Consciousness always remains the same. It does not change, come or go anywhere.
That is why true consciousness is called the Reality or the eternal.

True consciousness is not something that is hidden in space
or can be found tomorrow by looking for it somewhere far away.

One's own existence is the Reality. Know that the 'I' present in 'I' am is not
different from the Infinite Self but represents the imperishable Self.
You are that presence of consciousness itself. Nothing else.

Prove it to yourself. Have a look and and see.
To know one's true nature is NOT an experience.
It is a realization, a recognition, an understanding only.

Understanding is all that is necessary to remove the veil of ignorance camouflaging one's true nature.
The ones that do not understand what this affectionate presence of consciousness simply is,
will unfortunately remain bound to an endless Seeking path to nowhere.
There is no end to spiritual and religious concepts and ideology.

Know thyself.

Consciousness can only be pointed to as
simply being oneself. As pure awareness of being.

One own self is the Self. The 'I' is you and the Real-'I'-ty.
No finite, individual or separate independent self ever existed.
Consciousness is the unseen living-ness that is expressing itself as you.

To the ignorant the 'I' is the self limited to the body.
To the wise, the 'I' is the Infinite Self (consciousness).
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The experience is here and now only.

To look for consciousness away from oneself is to always look
toward the transient, the impermanent, the illusion or a living dream.

Consciousness is not lost or to be found or acquired from some person, place or thing.
Consciousness is living-ness. One's own undeniable plain ordinary existence is the experience.

Freedom is always here. It is not to be freshly acquired. Consciousness is nothing new to anyone.
Consciousness is always present here and now as one's own self, as one's own being or existence.

Know thyself. Remove the veil of ignorance that is camouflaging this simple Truth about yourself.
Consciousness is not something new or different that is yet to be freshly acquired or experienced.

Consciousness cannot be objectified because it is no-thing but paradoxically can easily be recognized
as the natural state of being and remaining aware or unchanging awareness AKA wakeful-ness.

To be conscious is this presence of consciousness itself. Being conscious is the experience.
Consciousness is the living-ness and aware-ness self-shining naturally with everybody.

Secrecy sells. But consciousness is not some hidden religious holy grail or spiritual secret to be discovered.
Understand that I am not a self-help Guru. I am not spiritual or religious. I have nothing to sell either.
Just sharing what I have found out to be true for myself. Have a look and see if it is true for you.

True consciousness is NOT what self-appointed spiritual and religious people make it out to be.
Consciousness is very common and so ordinary to everybody. One can only laugh at the joke of it all.
No one can give you anything new but only point to that which you already are and have always been.

Another name for consciousness is Life.

True consciousness is nothing spiritual but natural.
Consciousness present is the simple fact of one's own being.
Being alive is effortlessly abiding as that living-ness or conscious-ness.

True consciousness is not something that was ever lost or something missing yet to be found.
So near and so dear, shining in plain sight all along. True consciousness is simply being oneself.

Removal of the notion that we have
not realised the Self is all that is required.
We are always the Self, only we don’t realise it.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Striving foolishly to 'become' Free. Someone can go a long strenuous endless way or the fast and easy 'birds way'.
The end result is going be the same. Understanding or realizing that one's real nature is simply consciousness.

Consciousness present is Life present. Consciousness present is pure awareness of being. It is 'I' am.
Just like you cannot kiss yourself on your own lips. Consciousness can never be
experienced as something new or spiritual. It is impossible.

Being is the experience.

That is the only difference between Wisdom and ignorance.
Understanding that Life is the Self. Being alive is being the Self.
Consciousness is the natural state of existence common to everyone alive.

Consciousness is nothing new, special or spiritual. It is what we are naturally.
The foolish mistake is to look for the real Self or this consciousness as anything new.

Get to know your thoughtless true nature. Understand this consciousness we call the real Self.
What is real? The thought I see cannot see. The thought I hear cannot hear. The thought I am aware
is not the awareness itself. Consciousness is the real seer. The real hearer. The real knower. The Real you.

Pause thoughts and all thoughts will disappear but consciousness itself 
or unchanging awareness remains self-revealed as the plain ordinary affectionate 'you'.
You do not come or go anywhere or disappear because you are not a thought but pure awareness itself.

One's true nature or true consciousness is very subtle.
Being aware is the natural and stateless or unchanging state of being.
Who is always present to be aware of this and that? 'I' am. Consciousness is 'I' am.

Once you understand that being aware is awareness. Full stop.
You know the Truth, you know the Self. You will not become anything new or different.
You won't become enlightened, walk on water, raise the dead or reach an eternal state of happiness.

All the spiritual and religious stories and false promises of salvation, liberation or
enlightenment are revealed as simply nothing other than spiritual carrots and hoaxes.

You simply realize that here and now you are that.
Awareness is another name for being yourself naturally.

Self or consciousness is another name for you. Gee you are you.
That is all true consciousness simply is. Closer to you than your own breath.
Forget everything and there you are. Present and aware of being yourself. That is IT.

Consciousness is pure awareness of being. Consciousness is that 'I' am that you know so well.
There is no mind to go beyond or some ego to kill or get rid of for the Reality or consciousness to be.
That is eastern spiritual ignorance and garbage. All there is present with oneself is solely consciousness.

The Search for some mystical fictitious and spiritual consciousness is the only trap.
Nothing is missing. Being alive is the presence of this consciousness self-shining naturally.
Consciousness or Life present expresses itself naturally as pure awareness of being. As 'I' am.

The Secret to Freedom is that there is no bondage. Wisdom is Freedom. Bondage is only ignorance.
There is no God or alternate Reality but only Life or existence present here and now as the only Reality.

That what the fuss is all about. All about being alive and aware of being.
That is what 'I' am represents. Existence.

Life is the Reality.

There is no acquiring or becoming anything new.
Of course if you are Seeking spiritual Cures or Secrets for self-improvement.
You will always have a bunch of self-appointed spiritual and religious people offering
the Secret for this and the Secret for that. All are just illusory concepts used to entice ignorant Seekers.

After all, how long does it take to know that you are? 'I' am that 'I' am. You are the knowing that you are.
'I' am is primary consciousness. It is the undeniable knowing that you are. Pure awareness of being.

Sentience, cognizance, awareness. One's true nature is the natural state of being conscious.
That is what this true consciousness simply is. It is not something apart from you but what you are.

Call off the Search. The experience is always here and now. Being is the Reality.
One's own existence here and now is the undeniable Reality.

'I' am is the Reality.

Consciousness present is at once existence and the knowing that you are.
Consciousness present cannot be denied. It is impossible to negate one's true nature.
The Self is existence and being alive is being it. That which is undeniable is what one's true nature is.

Remove the veil or camouflage of ignorance with understanding.
Understanding what is being pointed to as one's true nature is all that is required.
Consciousness is not something special or spiritual that is yet to be reached, acquired or attained.

Understanding that consciousness or being
and remaining aware naturally is abiding as the Infinite Self,
is all that is required to know oneself and therefore one's true nature.

Again one's true nature is all natural, it is not spiritual or mystical in anyway.
Call off the search. To be conscious is what this consciousness truly is. So simple.

What is the Infinite Self? Consciousness. What is consciousness?
The natural state of being conscious. What else? The natural state of being.

The Search for consciousness to be something special or spiritual is the only trouble.
Consciousness present is the natural state of being awake or aware common to everyone.
Consciousness is the natural presence and effortless expression of Life, cognizance and awareness.

One's true nature is undeniably present with oneself naturally. It is awareness.
To be aware is aware-ness. What else did you expect the Reality to be, a blazing light?

If you meet holy Gurus and spiritual Teachers that want you to foolishly believe that awareness
is anything other than common to all cognizance, sentience or simply being aware you are being lied to.

Realize that to naturally be conscious is consciousness. To be aware is awareness.
You do not have to strive or meditate to know the Self. Are you aware? Are you conscious?
That is what the Self simply is. To be conscious or to be aware is consciousness or awareness itself.

Investigate what is the true Self or the Reality and voila! You will come to the exact same conclusion.
Consciousness is effortlessly self-revealed as what you already are and have always been all along.

The Reality is at once being and consciousness.
Existence is the natural expression of consciousness itself.
One's own plain ordinary undeniable existence is abiding as that.

The Self or God is Life itself. Naturally expressing itself as yourself. You are Life or consciousness itself.
To be oneself is to be the Oneself. To be alive and aware of being oneself is abiding as one's true nature.

Do not be confused with concepts of self-improvement which focus on the dying body and
true consciousness which is the imperishable Self or Living-ness within the body.
Life itself does not know death. Life or consciousness is the eternal Self.

Consciousness is the Infinite or imperishable Self
but not in the ways spiritual and religious people imagine it to be.
Spirituality is fiction. Consciousness present is the absolute Reality. It cannot be denied.

Again and again, not some holy or spiritual imaginary presence of consciousness that you may
have heard about from so many self-appointed Gurus and spiritual Teachers out there
but simply the undeniable fact of one's own being. 'I' am is that consciousness.

All there is to be done is to realize that to be conscious is consciousness.
To be aware of being is consciousness. 'I' am is consciousness.
That is all that is necessary to know one's true nature.

Consciousness is not something new, mystical or apart from you.
Consciousness is just another name for you. Here and now you are that.

For Self-Realization you do not gain anything new which you do not have already.
But only recognize what you already are and have always been your whole Life naturally.
After all, no one can deny their own existence. 'I' am is always with you as the fact of your own being.

The veiled and the ignorant believe the false to be true and reject the simple Truth as being false.
While to the wise being conscious is this consciousness itself. Reality is simply being and consciousness.

To know the Self, stop Seeking and have a look at yourself because the Seeker is the sought. Thou art that.
That is the funny paradox. What you Seek is what you already are. Therefore the Search alone is a trap.

There has never been something spiritual to be reached, attained or acquired to become whole.
All you will ever find outside yourself are always going to be spiritual carrots that are
only used to entice desperate people to foolishly believe the false to be true.

The Reality is the unseen presence of consciousness that governs
the entire universe, look at this world and you always see its expression.

Creation and evolution is the expression of consciousness. Paradoxically it is not spiritual but natural.
You are it. Everyone alive is the expression of Life itself. The Oneness present in all, as all is consciousness.

Consciousness is the nature of Life. Consciousness is everyone's true nature.
You are the Oneness. Being alive and aware of being oneself is at once 'I' am and consciousness.

Simply recognize that the natural state of being conscious, awake or aware is abiding as that and voila!
Consciousness is not mystical or spiritual in anyway but paradoxically common to all, simple and ordinary.
The ones who go from Guru to Guru and read book after book get to be so confused, they cannot accept Reality.

Obviously to know the Reality one must be empty from all acquired spiritual and religious concepts.
After all, to look toward any religion or spirituality for the Reality is to foolishly cultivate illusion.

Self-appointed spiritual and religious people pretending to be holy are like snake oil sellers.
There is no miracle cure for Freedom. Understanding is the only medicine.
Only a false notion of being bound is bondage. Nothing else.

Because people believe the spiritual and religious crap they have been fed since childhood.
They have falsely accepted a false notion of separation, duality and bondage.

Someone told them that they are bound and they believed them.

Any so called spiritual or religious person is simply someone that is delusional and therefore will
foolishly believe the false to be true. A follower or devotee of illusion chasing after false imagination.

The Reality is always here and now. The camouflage or 'cloud' covering up this ever present consciousness
self-shining naturally as Life itself, is all the spiritual and religious garbage that people have
acquired from so called spiritual and religious people and there holy books.

The Reality is not spiritual or holy, but natural and ordinary.

Most people will never question their acquired spiritual or religious beliefs.
In fact they go up in arms when their spiritual or religious beliefs are being pinched.
Attachments to any acquired spiritual or religious concepts about consciousness is the mistake.

Spirituality and religions are the poison, not the cure.

The Reality is not spiritual or religious. That is the funny paradox.
Consciousness present is everyone's natural state of being or existence.

Therefore to Seek consciousness, the Self or God in any spiritual or religious ways
is to simply become blind or veiled by B.S. A spiritual or religious believer is only blind fool.

A spiritual or religious believer cannot know the Self or God, but only believe in false and imaginary concepts.
Simply because the absolute Reality is natural, the Self or God is nothing spiritual or religious in anyway.

Life is the Reality. Life is the Oneness we all experience directly as being and consciousness.

Reality is at once being and consciousness.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

All the spiritual and religious crap out there
does not point to the Reality but only to illusion.

Paradoxically the Self or this consciousness which is the Reality
is the complete opposite of all spiritual and religious acquired beliefs.

There never was a spiritual or religious presence or power that the ignorant call God.
The Real God or the Reality is always present here and now as Life itself. That is where it is.

Existence is what is being pointed to as the Infinite Self or the Oneness.
One's own plain boring ordinary existence is the Reality. So simple.

'I' am means 'I' exist. It is the knowing that you are.
Awareness of being present is consciousness present. 'I' am is that.

It is pure awareness of being. It is that 'I' am you know so well.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Life is just another name for consciousness.
Consciousness is another name for God.

Therefore 'I' am is God.

Being awake from sleep is to be the Self.
Consciousness is awareness.

You do not need to cultivate, attain or kick start awareness. Being aware is awareness.
Being awake or aware naturally is always abiding as one's true nature.

So simple. There is no spiritual state of awareness.
Only the natural state of being aware or awareness is the Reality.

Just be aware
that you are and remain aware.

You are aware anyhow, you need not try to be.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

There never was some holy, spiritual or mystical presence of consciousness or awareness.
As with water and ice. Dead people are not aware. Awareness present is sentience.
The natural effortless activity of being alive and aware.

Being aware is the natural activity of Life or consciousness.
Being aware is the natural state of being.

The state of pure being which is common to all and which is always
experienced directly by everybody is one's true nature.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Being awake and aware of being oneself naturally is present awareness. Awareness is sentience.
Wakeful-ness is the natural state of pure awareness or pure being common to all.

In other words, everyone awake from sleep effortlessly is already a 'buddha',
they simply do not know it. After all what else did you expect the Self to be?

You are awareness. You are the Self. You are God.

All sentient beings are essentially 'buddhas'.
As with water and ice, there is no ice without water.

Not knowing how close the truth is, we seek it far away.
What a pity!

~ Hakuin Ekaku Zenji ~

Call off the Search.

There is no becoming a Buddha or some holy God that is yet to be discovered.
There is no spiritual or religious state of Freedom, liberation, mukti, Enlightenment etc.

The Reality is simply being oneself naturally. So simple.
The striving to become anything new or spiritual is the only bondage.

The state we call Realisation is simply being oneself.
Not knowing anything or becoming anything.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Only the spiritual or religious con artist will mystify the Reality has being
something that it is not. Spirituality and religions are always pointing to illusion.

Spiritual and religious people do not want
Seekers, worshippers, devotees and followers to know this.
After all, only ignorance can be sold or acquired from others appearing holy.

Stupid spiritual and religious people camouflage this simple Truth
with all kinds of erroneous and fictions concepts and beliefs.

No one can give you anything which you do not have already.
Spiritual and religious people sell water by the river.

The true pointer has nothing to sell.
He knows you need nothing.

Freedom is Free. Self-appointed Gurus that are selling retreats,
books, CD's and tapes are only doing it for a business. For making money.

If you have been a long time spiritual Seeker and looked everywhere for what is already
naturally present here and now, you must come to the realization that you have been looking
in the wrong direction all this time. Someone has given you wrong knowledge and you believed them.

Any spiritual Teacher or Guru is not your friend.
Veiled Seekers fall for a trap or illusion of liberation.

Don't you know that the Truth or Reality is always here and now?
Life is Now only. What else is undeniably present this very moment but Life itself.

You are Life. You are consciousness. You are God. Nothing new, spiritual or holy about being.
Being yourself naturally just as you are is abiding as that natural consciousness or living-ness.

Instead of being as they are naturally, spiritual Seekers seek to become something holy.
Some people foolishly believe that to know the Self is to acquire a special faculty. But it is not.
The Self is Life itself. Being alive is abiding as this consciousness itself, it is the very nature of Life.

Realisation is not the acquisition of anything new nor is it a new faculty.
It is only removal of all camouflage.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Get rid of the camouflage of ignorance.
Just this and nothing else is the Realization.

Understanding that Life is consciousness is to remove ignorance.
That is all that is necessary to know the Self and Reality.
That is what so called Self-Realization is.

No time or effort is required. Understanding alone is realizing.
There is no becoming, attaining or achieving anything new.
There never was. Bondage and liberation do not exist.

You are ever-Free. What binds you?
If you look for your chains they will not be found. It is all imaginary.

Forget all about spirituality and all organized religions if you want to know the simple Truth
for they cannot help you but only entice you and confuse you with lies and false promises.

It all works in reverse. A paradox.
There is no becoming or attaining anything.

Only understanding what this consciousness simply is,
is all that is required to know oneself and the Infinite Self.

If you don't understand this consciousness itself, then you are in bondage
when you will understand what this (consciousness) is, then that is liberation.
Paradoxically you will realize that you are already liberated.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Understanding is all. That is the Open Secret.

To know the ultimate Truth about oneself and the Infinite Self
AKA consciousness has always been very simple.
Who said it was hard or difficult?

Paradoxically the simplicity is the only difficulty.
It is only difficult for the brainwashed spiritual or religious believer.
In fact believers are people that have spend their whole life believing the false to be true.

To know the Reality. Forget everything spiritual and religious
you have ever acquired from others and there you are.

All acquired spiritual and religious knowledge
are paradoxically the greatest ignorance.
The greatest illusion is religion.

Spirituality and all religions are
only the art of deception and illusion.
It is all and only the art of make 'believe'.

The nature of one's true nature
is natural, not spiritual.
Illusion is spiritual.

Even thou an ordinary person is already a so called 'buddha' and of course
a 'buddha' is simply an ordinary person. Just this and nothing else.

Some people want to play the spiritual Guru or Master of illusion
by having a bunch of idiots blindly worshipping them and taking care of them financially.

These are people that want to create a sect, cult or religion by enticing veiled and ignorant Seekers
to chase after fictitious spiritual carrots. Beware of the holy Buddha you see on the road. It is only a fraud.

A finger pointing at the moon is not the moon. To hold on to the finger is to miss the moon completely.
Realize that a spiritual or holy Guru is the greatest illusion. Therefore to fall in love
with any spiritual Guru is to fall in love with the false or illusion.

See the false as false. There is nobody special, spiritual or holy.
Some people only pretend to be for recognition, to be worshipped or a fee.

Know the simple Truth about the Reality. The Reality is nothing special, spiritual or holy.
It never was. Ignorant people only assume or believe that it is, when in fact it is not and never will be.

The Reality is already here.
There is no waiting for anything new.

Life or existence is consciousness. So simple.
That alone is the Reality. Nothing new or extra-ordinary.
Being alive. Who is not aware of himself and does not like to be?

The answer to who am 'I' is not found in the graveyard of the past or somewhere
in the future but always undeniably present right here and right now as one's own being.

'I' am is the Reality.

Understand that being alive naturally
and aware of being oneself is this presence of consciousness
we call 'the Infinite Self' and you have done all that needed to be done.

You will realize that consciousness is what you already are this very moment
and have always been all along. You simply did not know it. Ignorance is the only obstacle.

Only remove ignorance.
That is all there is to be done.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Consciousness.

The natural state of being awake or aware.

Did you know that the Self or the Reality is consciousness?
Did you know that to be awake from sleep is abiding as this consciousness itself?

What is consciousness? Life. Consciousness and existence are synonymous with being alive.
Consciousness is the natural intelligence and the living power or energy functioning the entire body.

If you are Seeking spiritual enlightenment or spiritual liberation. Call off the Search.
There is no such thing. Enlightenment is only a made up religions hoax that is used
to entice the simple, the weak and the dumb. That is all it is and will ever be.

Consciousness is not something spiritual or religious. It is Life or existence.
Awareness of being present here and now or present awareness is that.

There is no reaching the Self. Only the veiled and the ignorant
will foolishly believe that the Self is yet to be attained.
These concepts are only for blind Sheepos.

Believers and worshippers of illusion
will believe that crap. It is all non-sense.

Being alive is the presence of consciousness.

Life is Now only. The experience is always here and now.
Being alive and awake from sleep is abiding as one's true nature.

Life is living itself as you.
You are Life which is the natural presence of consciousness.

So near and so dear is the Reality or this consciousness. It is alive-ness or being alive.

Of course if you are the spiritual or religious type, well then this simple Truth is not for you.
After all, how can anyone realize this simple Truth when they have spend many years cultivating the false.

The so called Guru lovers and God worshippers will never the simple Truth about the Infinite Self.
They became attached and stuck to their acquired spiritual and religious ways. Nothing can help this people.

Paradoxically to know the Infinite Self or one's true nature is in fact very easy for anyone
that is simply open to the common, the boring and the ordinary, to know no-thing.

Every-thing is this no-thing. All there is ever present is always consciousness in essence.
Consciousness is the very core or substratum to all that is present or all that exists.

Just like someone cannot see the wind but only it's expression. Consciousness is the unseen power.
Consciousness cannot be objectified or denied. It just undeniably is. As it always is naturally.

We all directly and undeniably experience this presence of consciousness as Life itself.
To know the Infinite Self is so easy. Look at yourself. You know that you are alive
because Life is undeniably present. Being alive and knowing that you are.

You are because consciousness is present.
Just like water and ice. There is no ice present without water present.
Without this consciousness present there is no 'I' am. Consciousness present is 'I' am.

Everyone alive is always abiding as the Self, they simply do not realize it because
Life, existence or consciousness is so ordinary and so natural to everybody.

How can you kiss this beauty that we call Life? Life is the precious, it is the beloved.
You are Life or this consciousness itself this very moment. It is pure being.

Everyone alive always experience the Self or consciousness
directly as one's own affectionate self, as one's own being.

Look are yourself. Are you are alive and aware of being?
You know that you are? 'I' am is certain.

That is IT. Full stop.

You know that you are alive and you like it.
Knowing that you are, that you exist here and now is 'I' am.

Being alive and aware of being oneself is at once the Self and 'I' am.
One's true nature is the presence of consciousness or Life.

It is pure existence itself.

Life or existence is the Self and yourself. Thou art that.

Your body is Life's temple if you like. The natural presence of intelligence
which is the unseen living energy within your own dwelling is this consciousness itself.

The Reality is at once being alive and aware or being and consciousness.

Awareness of being is 'I' am.

Consciousness present is 'I' am. One's own existence is that.
Knowing that you are present or present awareness is this consciousness itself.

Life is everyone's true nature and the undeniable Oneness present in all. One Life that some call the One God.
Nothing mystical about Life. Consciousness is the undeniable natural intelligence we call Life and the Reality.

Consciousness is the Spirit of Life. "The kingdom is in you".
Life is the Oneness that is being pointed to. Everyone is already that Life essence itself.

For whoever seeks God in some special way, will gain the way and lose God who is hidden in the way.
But whoever seeks God without any special way, finds Him as He really is... He is Life itself.

~ Meister Eckhart ~

Can Life be any closer to oneself? Of course not!
It is closer to you than your own breath. Dead people do not breathe.

Existence, alive-ness, living-ness is the natural presence of consciousness, so near and so dear.
It is beating your heart, breathing you and shining through your eyes this very moment.

You cannot objectify consciousness because
you are that consciousness itself AKA the One without a second.

Seeing is being the Self or consciousness. Hearing is being the Self or consciousness.
Thinking, feeling, knowing etc are only the natural activity of consciousness or Life.

There has never been a God and you.
You are God or the Self this very moment by simply being just as you are.
Not some mystical God of religion, but the Reality which is existence and consciousness.

Reality is at once being and consciousness.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

How simple can the ultimate Truth be? To be or not to be. Who is not aware of being?
Being alive presently, here and now, this very moment alone is being the Self. That it IT. Just this is the Reality.

Common to all and always undeniably experienced directly by everyone alive naturally.
The Self or consciousness present is that 'I' am you know so well already as your own affectionate being.

Consciousness is being and being is consciousness.

One's own existence needs no proof. 'I' am is always certain as pure awareness being.
Existence or Life here and now is the presence of consciousness and that is the Infinite Self. So simple.

No one is ever apart from their true nature. Being alive naturally is everyone's true nature. Alive-ness is the Self.
Call consciousness either Life or God. All are only pointing to the same presence of existence we all like to be.

There is no spiritual goal to be reached or anything new, anything different or special to be attained.
Ignorant and foolish 'believers' will adopt a Guru or a religion and brainwashed themselves
to falsely 'believe' that they are bound. Bondage is only psychological.

One only 'believes' that there is bondage.
Bondage only exists inside someone's head as spiritual or religious brainwashing.

Seekers are people that are told they are bound and must become Free and they obviously believe it.
Not knowing how close and ordinary the Reality truly is. The Search for spiritual liberation becomes a trap.

Paradoxically one cannot cultivate illusion or spirituality and know the absolute Reality.
Forget spirituality because it is all illusion or crap. Garbage feed to the veiled and ignorant for a fee.

Consciousness is the unseen power, presence and intelligence we all like to be.

Call off the Search. Consciousness is Life itself. You are it this very moment.
Everyone is that. Consciousness or Life is the Oneness.
Being alive is being the Self.

You wander restlessly from forest to forest
while the Reality is within your own dwelling.

~ Kabir ~

You never lost it. Simply overlooked the most precious.
The 'diamond' in your pocket is Life itself. You are Life. You are that.
There is nothing spiritual whatsoever about it. Existence here and now is the Reality.

Nothing spiritual, but all natural.

The Infinite Self, God or the Oneness is paradoxically the most common,
the most plain, boring and super duper ordinary. It is one's own ordinary existence.

That is the funny paradox. Thou art that already. Seeking it is always missing it.
What you Seek is paradoxically what you have always been and are.

Once you know the simple Truth about Life and yourself, all the religious and spiritual books
you have ever come across are no longer valid. Including all the Gurus, cults, sects etc.

All the spiritual and religions concepts people have accepted to be true
about the Self or some God are paradoxically false imagination or illusion.

There has never been any Reality in spirituality. But only Reality in actuality.
The Reality is the undeniable fact of one's own being.

'I' am is that presence of consciousness.

There has never been any holy presence or spiritual consciousness.
Life is the Oneness present in all and that alone is the Reality.

Be content with what you are sure of. And the only thing you can be sure of is 'I' am.
The only fact you are sure of is that you are. The only clue you have is your certainty of being.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

To be or not to be. Can anyone be without existence?
What is the power breathing you and expressing itself as you but Life itself.
Life alone is consciousness and that is what existence is, being or existence is the Reality.

Knowing the Self (consciousness) is being the Self, and being means existence,
one’s own existence. No one denies one’s own existence.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Spiritual Seekers foolishly waste their time chasing after fantasy
while the Reality is always here and now, present as Life itself.

Life, one cannot be without it.
Being alive is the experience itself.

Nothing special or spiritual. Being alive is natural.
Consciousness is the natural state of being or existence itself.

What effort do you have to make to be?
Alive-ness, living-ness, being-ness, 'I' am-ness
and consciousness are the same presence of existence.

Call off the Search. Nothing is missing.
One cannot deny that consciousness is indeed present
because everyone knows that they are. Everybody knows and says 'I' am.

Life present is 'I' am. Therefore know that 'I' am is Life, consciousness or God.

Nothing new under the Sun.

The Reality, the Infinite Self or God is simply 'I' am or the knowing that you are
alive and kicking this very moment. Presently is the absolute Reality. So simple.

Knowing that you are alive presently is pure awareness of being, it is 'I' am.
You do not have to repeat 'I' am, 'I' am, 'I' am all day long to know that you are.

'I' am is first hand and needs no proof.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

'I' am is always with you so to speak
as pure awareness of being. Everyone knows 'I' am.

One cannot negate one's own self, being or existence. 'I' am is certain.

Spirituality is crap and only for fools. While the Reality is common sense.
The absolute Reality and sought after Truth is the simple fact of one's own being.

What can be easier than that? Like a precious 'Diamond' hidden within your pocket all along.
Nothing was ever lost or needed to be discovered hidden far away. The Self is one's own existence itself.

Know yourself. Know that 'I' am is that. Awareness of being alive or existence here and now is at once 'I' am
and the undeniable presence of Life or consciousness. That is all the Reality simply is.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being...

The best definition is 'I' am that 'I' am.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Understanding is all. Life is everyone's true nature.
There is no need to strive to cultivate being alive.
Life is living itself naturally as yourself.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

The Self is consciousness.
Consciousness is the natural state of being aware.

The Open Secret to Self-Realization is simply understanding
that the natural state of being conscious or consciousness is the Self.

To be awake from sleep is to abide as that consciousness itself.
There is no reaching, there is no attaining or becoming anything new.

Why should anyone strive to become consciousness when being conscious is consciousness itself?
To be conscious is to abide as one's true nature. Nothing special or extra-ordinary.

That presence of cognizance or sentience alone is what has been pointed to
as pure unchanging awareness or the Infinite Self for millennia.

Look at yourself here and now. Are you conscious? Are you aware? That is it.
Consciousness is indeed present because you know that you are. Consciousness present is 'I' am.

It is all very simple, common and ordinary.
That is what the Self is all about. Conscious-ness.

No one wise ever said that the Self or consciousness is anything new,
spiritual or holy, but paradoxically natural, common to all and very ordinary.

That is the only difference between the wise and the ignorant.
To the ignorant the Self is something special or holy.
To the wise it is natural and ordinary.

Just like water and ice. Consciousness and Life are synonymous.
Therefore one's own existence is that presence of consciousness itself.
Nothing new or hidden far away but paradoxically closer than close. It is 'I' am.

Who is not aware of being oneself and does not say 'I' am all day long?
Everyone alive and awake from sleep knows 'I' am.
Everyone knows that they are.

Consciousness cannot be denied.
One's own existence or being-ness needs no proof.
You are the knowing that you are present or aware of being.

That is what 'I' am simply represents.
Pure awareness of being.

It is pure awareness of being.
It is that 'I' am you know so well.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

The only illusion of separation and bondage is wrong acquired knowledge
or the false notion that the Self is something new, special or spiritual.
When in fact the Self or consciousness is that 'I' am you know so well.

What are you looking for, when here and now you are that?
Call off the Search. There is no reaching the Self.
Understanding alone is Realizing.

That is the 'Precious' or Sought-after Truth that one
cannot find outside oneself but simply recognize by
understanding that consciousness is Life itself.

Sought-after Truth is found
by not seeking it.

~ Longchen-pa ~

There has never been any spiritual or holy Self present anywhere has
it is promised by so many self-appointed Gurus and spiritual Teachers.

These people are only selling water by the River to the veiled and the ignorant.

Life is the Sought after Truth.  It is what is truly happening here and now.
One's own self, being or affectionate existence here and now is the Self.
The natural state of being alive and aware of being is abiding as that.

What have you to wait for when it is already here and now?
You have to only look & see. Look at yourself, at your own being.

You know that you are and you like it. Abandon all imagining, that is all.

Do not rely on time, time is death, who waits dies.
Life is now only!
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Call off the Search. Being alive is being the Self.
You already are at the destination you have paradoxically never left.
Nothing holy or spiritual about being. Existence is the natural state of being.

Once you understand that being alive is being the Self,
you have done all that needed to be done.

Consciousness is the natural state of being.
The ultimate Truth is so simple.
Thou art that.

While the Reality is always naturally and effortlessly present closer than close to oneself,
the only difficulty for veiled spiritual Seekers is to come to the realization that they have been
conned and enticed to chase after illusion all this time, by foolishly believing the false to be true.

We are 'imagining' we are bound and are making various, strenuous attempts to become free.
We will be surprised that we were frantically trying to attain something,
which we have always been and are.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

What you Seek is paradoxically what you already are.
Consciousness is nothing new. The experience is here and now.
Consciousness or the Self present is being alive and abiding as yourself.

The Reality is always here and now.
No one can ever be apart from their own existence.

The Reality is not some fictitious spiritual or religious state of false imagination.
The Reality is being or existence. Life, consciousness, awareness are synonymous with being it.

Who is not aware of being oneself and does not know or say 'I' am?
One cannot deny one's own self, being or existence. 'I' am is the Real-'I'-ty.

To be or not to be. Who is not aware of being alive or existing?

Can anyone sane say 'I' am not or 'I' do not exist here and now and
foolishly negate their own being or undeniable existence? Of course not!

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The Self is consciousness.

The state of being conscious that we call wakefulness or unchanging awareness is
this plain ordinary presence of consciousness known as the Self, He, the Reality.

That is what the Self, He, the Reality truly is. Consciousness is simply being aware.
One's true nature is aware-ness or the natural state of being aware common to everyone.

There never was some holy or spiritual Self. A holy or spiritual Self is only found in cults and organized religions.
Reality is simply the presence of Life itself which is nothing other than the natural expression of consciousness.

Everyone alive is the Self. Being alive is abiding as this consciousness itself.
Being awake from sleep and aware of being is consciousness. It is 'I' am.

The Self is that 'I' am you know so well already as your own being.
Everyone alive effortlessly experience this presence of consciousness directly as
the natural state of being aware and remaining aware or wakeful-ness. That is all it is.

In other words if you are awake from sleep you already are so called 'Enlightened' or a living 'Buddha'.
Only ignorant and foolish people strive to attain, become or achieve what they already are naturally.

The state we call 'Realization' or 'Enlightenment' is simply being oneself.
There is no becoming or attaining anything special, spiritual or new.
Only the veiled and the ignorant falsely believe that there is.

Anyone that understood what this consciousness simply is,
will only say what I am saying now. Call off the Search.

Consciousness is not something new, spiritual or hidden far away. It is the natural state of being.

Why seek illusion or false imagination when being alive naturally and effortlessly is always abiding
as one's true nature which is consciousness or Life itself? Awareness of being or existence is 'I' am.

You know that you are present because consciousness is present as pure awareness of being, as 'I' am.
Not some holy or spiritual 'I' am, but the knowing that you are present here and now 'I' am.

Spiritual people are foolishly busy Seeking illusion while the Reality is existence itself.
Being alive and aware of being oneself is the only Reality being pointed as 'I' am.

That is all there is to realize. Then you laugh at yourself for being so foolish.
The Self you Seek to know is truly yourself. Plain and ordinary.

Is there anyone who is not aware of himself? Each one knows,
but yet does not know the Self (consciousness). A strange paradox!
....
Reality is at once being and consciousness.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

I laugh when I hear that ignorant spiritual Seekers from
all sorts of religious denominations are Seeking Freedom.

After all, what binds you other than a false belief of being bound?
Spiritual and religious people are the same thing. Believers in the false.

Bondage is only a false idea or belief. It is only psychological
There is no bondage. The honest pointer will say what I am saying now.
The people that Seek Freedom have only convinced themselves that they are bound.

Stop imagining and start knowing.
To know the Truth is the key.

Knowing is NOT believing.

That is the Joke of it all. Find out what binds you.
Find out what is Real. Look for your chains and they will not be found.

In fact there is no spiritual bondage and there is no spiritual liberation.
Ignorant and veiled spiritual and religious people only imagine that there is.

They have brainwashed themselves to foolishly believe the false or illusion to be true.
Trapped to a endless search of some fictitious spiritual salvation, liberation or Enlightenment.

They were told by some holy Guru or a spiritual teacher or religious leader
that they must do something spiritual or religious in order someday to become Free.

That is all B.S. of course.

Freedom is only understanding that there is no bondage. Just this and nothing else. That is the Secret.
That is all Freedom truly is. There is no becoming or attaining anything new, different or special.

In fact if you have a closer look at spirituality and all religions they are all crap.
Spirituality and religions are paradoxically the poison, not the cure.

The Reality is not spiritual or religious.

Anyone that tells you otherwise is ignorant or lying to you.

Question, investigate all your acquired spiritual and religious beliefs.
That is what must go. Forget all that non-sense and have look at your own being.

Understanding alone is Freedom.

Ignorance is the cause of all mischief. To be bound is to foolishly believe in God.
Freedom is to know yourself, by realizing that here and now you are that.

What God is there? Have a look and see.
There never was one because it is only a mental creation.

Spirituality is only for delusional people also known as Seekers.

Reality is nothing spiritual or illusory but the simple fact of one's own being.
Awareness of being present right here and right now is at once the Reality and 'I' am.

Be wise and see through the veil of ignorance and leave all the spiritual crap to blind and ignorant fools.
The spiritual Seeker is only bound to a false notion of separation. Bondage is only psychological. Nothing else.

There is no bondage and there is no liberation.

So called Self-Realization is only understanding
that being alive and aware naturally is abiding as that.

What is that? Plain common to all ordinary consciousness.
What else would the Self, He or the Reality truly be? A blazing light?

In other words to be alive, conscious or sentient is abiding as the Self, He, the Reality.
Being alive and aware is plain ordinary existence and that alone is the absolute Reality.

It is not some spiritual state or religious experience. It is pure being.
It is the state of pure being common to all. Nothing new, spiritual or special.

Only the veiled and the ignorant foolishly believes that it is.
To the wise it is simply Life itself.

So simple.

You have never left it or lost it or ever been apart from it
but always have been it your entire Life. You are it this very moment.

Life is what is truly happening.
The experience is always here and now

Being alive is the experience itself. That is what being the Self is all about.
Life is living itself as you. You are Life or consciousness itself.

Life is everyone's true nature.
Nothing special or spiritual but natural.

Here and now you are that consciousness itself.
Call off the Search. The Search for a spiritual Self is a trap.

Understanding that Life itself is consciousness and that being conscious
is always abiding as that pure consciousness itself is all that is required.

To be alive is living-ness, to be conscious is conscious-ness.
To be aware is aware-ness. Like water and ice.

Life and consciousness are One.

Why foolishly Seek spirituality which is illusion
when the Reality is always here and now?

Being alive and aware of being oneself is being it.
Everyone alive knows this consciousness so well already as 'I' am.

The experience is here and now. One cannot deny one’s own self.
Existence is the same as happiness and happiness is the same as being.
Why should one seek it?

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Existence, consciousness, being.

Being the Self is simply the natural experience we call Life.
Being alive is abiding as one's true nature. That alone is the Reality.

When you Seek it. You are looking away from it.

Being alive is being it. Nothing new, different or special.
'I' am is nothing new or spiritual. 'I' am is pure awareness of being.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The so called "Diamond in your pocket" is Life itself.
That is the Reality self-shining within your own dwelling.

Consciousness is nothing spiritual or holy but natural and ordinary.
Paradoxically to turn toward spirituality is to always look away from the Reality.

Just understand that being conscious is consciousness and right here and now you are that.
If you ever wondered what has pointed to for millennia as everyone's true nature. That is it.

Consciousness is not some spiritual state that is yet to be reached or to be attained but the natural state.
That is the funny paradox. Sought after Truth is found by not Seeking it. Only by understanding.

Wisdom is Freedom.

Ignorance is the only illusion of separation and duality. Get rid of ignorance with understanding.
There is no becoming Self. Being oneself is being the Self.

That is all there is to realize.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

What is Life or existence?
The natural expression of consciousness.

Therefore being alive or existing right here and right now is effortlessly abiding as that.
Being alive and aware of being is abiding as one's true nature naturally which is consciousness.

Know thyself. Have a look at your real self or true nature.
Are you alive, are you conscious and aware of being?

Voila!

You are the knowing that you are.
Consciousness present is pure awareness of being.

It is 'I' am.

Whenever you hear the words you are He, you are the Self, you are That, etc,
what is really means is that you are Life. Just this and nothing else.

Consciousness and Life are One and the same.

The experience is always here and now. Life is Now only. Breathing is happening presently,
the heart is beating presently. Being or existing is always presently or Now.

One's own affectionate natural effortless existence right here and right now
or 'I' am-ness needs no proof. Here and now you are that. Consciousness is pure being.

Being alive and awake from sleep naturally is at once this presence of consciousness and 'I' am.
Everyone knows that Life is indeed present simply because no one alive can deny being.

Only a self-appointed Guru, a spiritual Teacher and religious leader will
camouflage this simple Truth with fiction, superstition and made up fantasy.

The Self, He, the Reality or God etc, never was some holy or spiritual presence,
but simply the natural presence of consciousness itself that is always
experienced directly by everyone alive as Life itself.

That is the Secret.

You wander restlessly from forest to forest
while the Reality is within your own dwelling.

~ Kabir ~

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

The Paradox.

Don't you know that all acquired spiritual knowledge
is paradoxically the greatest ignorance?

Forget everything spiritual and voila!

You are there! Being yourself just as you are.

That alone is the Reality. Everything else is illusion.
Only the Search for a spiritual Self is a carrot and a trap.

Call off the Search. Look at yourself. You know that you are.
If you are not dead or un-conscious you are aware of being. Consciousness is indeed present.

Awareness of being is abiding as one's true nature. Knowing that you are present or present awareness.
Being the Self. Being aware and remaining aware naturally is this presence of consciousness.

The Self is nothing new, spiritual or special. It is 'I' am.
Being aware is awareness of being and that is at once being the Self,
being oneself and this consciousness itself. The Self is just another name for you.

For the ones who are willing to understand, ending
the Search for consciousness or the Self that was never lost is very easy.
No time, practice or effort of any kind is required to know one's true nature.

There never was any reaching, attaining or becoming consciousness or the Self. Understanding is Realizing.
There is only understanding that being conscious naturally is abiding as this consciousness itself AKA the Self.

If you are alive and conscious you are aware.
Being aware is the unchanging awareness we call the Infinite Self.

Being aware is abiding as that. The Reality is being conscious or consciousness.
In other words if you are aware of being, you are not dead, un-conscious or asleep, you are aware.

What you need is to be aware of being aware.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Aware-ness is the natural state of being aware common to everyone alive. So simple.
Look at yourself here and now. Aren't you aware? That is being aware and thus the presence of awareness.

Everyone alive and awake from sleep every day
is always the Self or effortlessly abiding as this unchanging awareness itself.
Some people simply do not realize it. Awareness cannot be objectified, it is no-thing.

Awareness is very subtle and therefore it is simply overlooked until it is clearly pointed to and
effortlessly recognized as one's affectionate true nature and natural state of being. It is nothing new.

Realizing that simply being aware naturally is this presence of awareness itself does not
take any time or any effort. Just some common sense. Understanding this, is realizing the Self.

Removal of the notion that we have not realised the Self is all that is required.
We are always the Self, only we don’t realise it.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Once you get that there is nothing lost or spiritual whatsoever about the Self, you finally got it.
Being aware is simply being conscious or being awake from sleep. That alone is what the Self truly is.

Life, consciousness, awareness, being is 'I' am.
Everyone alive knows that they are, 'I' am is first hand.

Aware-ness present is knowing that you are present. You are that.
You are the knowing that you are. Present awareness is 'I' am that 'I' am.

The Search for a spiritual Self is trap. Awareness is nothing to be freshly acquired.
Spiritual Seekers cannot accept that they have been looking in the wrong direction when
all along they already are the Self but so busy seeking the Self as something new, spiritual or holy.

To Seek awareness is to always look away from awareness. To be aware is what you are.
Awareness was never spiritual or religious in anyway but simply natural. That is the funny paradox.
To Seek this presence of awareness in any spiritual ways is only to acquire ignorance and wrong knowledge.

The natural state of being.
Awareness is not spiritual but simply natural.

Another name for being aware or aware-ness is wakeful-ness or sentience.
Being conscious is nothing new but what we all are naturally when we are awake.

Wakeful-ness, aware-ness, conscious-ness are synonymous
with being the Infinite Self and oneself. That is all.

You are awareness. Awareness is another name for you.
Since you are awareness, there is no need to attain or cultivate it.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Who foolishly needs to cultivate and strive to attain or acquire awareness
when simply being aware, is already abiding as this awareness itself?

Get to know your real nature. One only has to have a look and see.
Remove ignorance. That is all that is necessary.

Being aware is being the Self.

The Infinite Self, He, the Reality or true consciousness
which is everyone's true nature is already here, it is very ordinary and natural.
It is the natural state of being common to all and always experienced directly by everyone alive.

The wrong knowledge that the Infinite Self is something spiritual
or religious is a trap. That wrong knowledge must go.

What you Seek is nothing new, spiritual or apart. It is yourself.

See the false as false. Any spiritual state of awareness do not exist.
There is only the natural state of being. Being aware is the absolute Reality.

Being aware is what is truly being pointed as one's true nature. That is the Open Secret.
The Self is not something new, spiritual or far away. It is what you are naturally.

Just be aware
that you are and remain aware.
You are aware anyhow, you need not try to be.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Just be, that is being the Self. Nothing was lost. Remove ignorance only, that is all that is required.
Remove the false notion or wrong idea that you are not the Infinite Self already and voila!

That alone is the so called Self-Real-'I'-zation. Thou art that. Call off the Search.
After all, how much time does it take to know that you are?

Everyone knows and says 'I' am.

The state we call Realisation is simply being oneself.
Not knowing anything or becoming anything.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

To the veiled and the ignorant
consciousness is foolishly believed to be something spiritual.
To the wise that knows the Truth, consciousness is simply natural.

To a fool consciousness is believed to be God.
To the wise consciousness is simply Life or existence itself.

What is Real?

Get to know the Truth!

There is no spiritual state of consciousness.
Enlightenment is a hoax used to entice ignorant seekers.

The experience is here and now. Being alive is being the Reality.
Spirituality is illusion or false imagination while the Reality is simply Life itself.

Being alive or alive-ness is abiding as one's true nature. No one can deny one's own existence.
Everyone alive is aware of being. Awareness of being is the Reality. The Reality here and now is 'I' am.

Just like Gold can take many shapes or forms and yet the essence will always remain Gold.
Life will take many shapes or many forms but the essence always remains Life.

No one alive lives Life.

Life is living itself naturally as everyone.
One Life or the One without the second present as all sentient beings.
Just like water and ice. Life which is pure consciousness is everyone's true nature.

Nothing new or spiritual whatsoever about being alive, but natural.
We are Life living itself naturally. That is all.

The natural state of being.

Forget everything spiritual and you are there.

Be still and know that 'I' am or 'I' exist is the absolute Real-'I'-ty.
The Infinite Self is nothing new or spiritual but that 'I' am you know so well.

It is pure awareness of being. It is that 'I' am you know so well.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Is there anyone who is not aware of himself? Each one knows,
but yet does not know the Self. A strange paradox!
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The Self is me, my self and 'I'. The Self is just another name for 'you'. What else did you expect it to be?
The Infinite Self or consciousness is just another name for the good ol' ordinary everyday 'you'.

Consciousness is not imaginary. It is the simple fact of one's own being.
No one alive can deny the Self or consciousness is present.
Life, existence, consciousness are synonymous.

If you were told that the Infinite Self was in anyway spiritual or religious. Oops.

You only have been sold water by the River all this time.
You foolishly believe the false to be true. The Infinite Self is existence itself.
Consciousness is nothing new, spiritual or apart. Look at yourself. Look at your own being.

That is IT. One's own ordinary self, being or natural effortless existence is
this presence of consciousness itself AKA the Infinite Self, God or Life.

The Self is not silence, space or anything spiritual or religious. It never was. Some idiots made it up to be.
Being alive is the Reality. Existence is consciousness expressing itself naturally as one's own being.

Reality is at once being and consciousness.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Common to all and experienced directly by everyone alive naturally as Life itself.
So natural and so simple is the ultimate Truth. One's own existence is the Self.

Consciousness is that 'I' am you know. Nothing new. You are that.
Consciousness is what you have always been and are. It is yourself.

What about spiritual and holy beings? Simple! Scammers and con artists that are preying on the ignorant.
Anyone pretending to be spiritual or holy are only after fame, recognition and money.  Just this and nothing else.

There is no bondage and there is no liberation.
Spirituality and religions are only businesses of make believe.

There is no such thing as a spiritual Self or religious God. It is all false ideology and illusion.
Just fiction or spiritual carrots used to entice the veiled, the simple and the weak.

If you want to be bound to illusion. Adopt a Guru, a religion and spirituality.
Then you will spend years striving to Free yourself from false imagination.

Existence. Being alive naturally is the experience. That is abiding as one's true nature.
There is no bondage and there is no liberation. Spiritual people only imagine that there is.

Question. Investigate. Find out what is real. Know the Truth.
If it is not present here and now and can be denied it is only illusion.
Once you come to recognize the most obvious and undeniable, that is it.

Knowing the Self (consciousness) is being the Self, and being means existence,
one’s own existence. No one denies one’s own existence.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Can anyone deny one's own existence and claim 'I' do not exist or 'I' am not?
Only a delusional fool would negate one's own being or denied one's own existence.

Common sense is all that is required to know the Infinite Self. Simply because He is Life itself.

So near and so dear is one's own affectionate existence.

You wander restlessly from forest to forest
while the Reality is within your own dwelling.

~ Kabir ~

Like a diamond hidden in your pocket all along.
Life is the Precious and true Beloved.

Nothing was ever lost. Simply overlooked.
Life is what is truly naturally happening here and now.

So plain, so familiar and so ordinary is the Self. Nothing new.

That is why people miss it. They are so busy looking for something else.
After all Life is nothing spiritual to be cultivated or practiced, it is the natural state.

Call off the Search. Existence is the Reality.
'I' am is at once being alive and aware.

Be content with what you are sure of. And the only thing you can be sure of is 'I' am.
The only fact you are sure of is that you are. The only clue you have is your certainty of being.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Existence is not to be attained or to be cultivated.
What effort do you have to make to be alive?

Reality is natural, not spiritual or fiction.
That is the funny paradox.

Sought-after Truth is found by not seeking it.
~ Longchen-pa ~

Wisdom alone is Freedom. Understanding is all.
Call off the Search. The Truth is you. You are that.

Consciousness is everyone's nature.
It is not something apart or hidden far away.
The Reality is being alive, conscious and aware of being.

But hey, if this simple Truth about this consciousness is
too simple, too plain and too ordinary for you, well keep on Seeking.
As they say, one can only bring a horse to the water but cannot make him drink.

When you are sick and tired of looking for the Self that was never lost.
Then you will finally look at your own self. Because that is IT.
The Self or consciousness is just another name for you.

Not some ficticious spiritual or religious 'you',
but the plain, ordinary everyday 'you'.

The Self (consciousness) you seek to know is truly yourself.
Your supposed ignorance causes you needless grief
like that of the ten foolish men who grieved

at the loss of the tenth man,
who was never lost.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Here and now you are that consciousness itself naturally.
Without ever trying to be. Being is the Reality.

Here and now you are that.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

What is Life and what is death?

Life is consciousness.

Consciousness is the natural Living presence or governing intelligence that we call Life
that is undeniably self-shining naturally within the body. The Power if you like.

What happens when we die?

Nothing happens to consciousness or the Power.
Death is just a change from expressing as a pattern or a form to form-less.

Life itself does not know death. Only the body or pattern that is created out
of the five elements from the food ingested by the mother return to the five elements.
Only the five elements are borrowed to create the body or a pattern for Life to express itself.

What is Real or eternal does not come or go anywhere.
The eternal is consciousness and that consciousness is no-thing.

Every-thing that exists is paradoxically no-thing in nature. A funny paradox.

One's true nature or consciousness is not the changing body but the unseen
power undeniably present within the body or pure consciousness that we call Life.

Know your true nature to be the Living presence or consciousness naturally present within the body.
Growing your hair, beating your heart, feeding every cell and shining through your eyes.
The Self is nothing new. Life is the Reality everyone likes to be.

Life is Natural. Life is.
It just is. Life is living itself Naturally.

There never was anything spiritual about being. Existence is only Natural.
Plain, common and ordinary everyday being-ness is abiding as one's true nature.

Like a light bulb has power to shine of its own.

The body has no power. Life is the power and the Reality.
You are alive, you are the Self. You are the power within the body.

Understanding this, is realizing that one's true nature is formless pure consciousness.
Consciousness cannot be objectified or denied. It is pure being. Pure existence.
To be alive and aware of being is the experience itself. Pure being.

No one can deny the Self, consciousness or Life to be present.
It is impossible to say 'I' do not exist or 'I' am not.

One's own existence cannot be denied.
To be, to exist is to be the Self.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Say 'I' am. See!
Before you can say 'I' am
you must be present and aware of being.

Dead people do not say 'I' am. They are dead.
Life is no longer present and shining within their own body.

Remove the power or consciousness from the body and you have a dead corps. Still and silent.
It will still have eyes but will not be able to see. Have ears but will not be able to hear.
Consciousness is lively and buoyant. It is cognizant living-ness or aware-ness.

Knowing that you are alive is the proof that consciousness is indeed present. It is 'I' am.
Awareness of being. Look at your own being. You are alive and aware of being.
You know that you are and you like it. That is IT. Awareness of being.

The Self or consciousness is nothing new, special or spiritual but
what you already are and have always been naturally.
Living-ness, being-ness, 'I' am-ness.

Of course if you want to be religious or spiritual and keep quiet or silent the rest of your natural life,
then realize that you are only pretending to be dead before your time. Why be like a Zombie?
Stillness and silence is for the dead. Consciousness is the natural activity of being alive.

It just is. Pure existence. You cannot stop being. Life present is 'I' am present.
Consciousness is therefore that 'I' am you know so well as your own being.

Consciousness has nothing to do with spirituality, religions, silence or space.
Consciousness or the Self is pure existence. Being alive is abiding as this consciousness.

Existence present is 'I' am. Awareness of being. There is no waiting for anything new.
The experience is always here and now. Being alive naturally is the experience itself.

What have you to wait for when it is already here and now?
You have to only look & see. Look at yourself, at your own being.

You know that you are and you like it. Abandon all imagining, that is all.
Do not rely on time, time is death, who waits dies. Life is now only!

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

If you were told by some A-hole that if you believed and cultivated this or practiced that
you will eventually become something new, spiritual or holy. You have been lied to.

Life is Now only. That is IT.
Here and now 'I' am is the Reality.

That is all there is to realize. Existence is the Self.

Existence is so simple and so natural. No effort is required to be.
Common to all and always experienced directly by all. The Self is life itself.

If you are alive, you are the Self. Knowing that you are alive is being the Self.
Knowing that you exist here and now is this consciousness itself.

That is all there is to realize.

Consciousness is the natural essence of Life itself and the immortal Self.
Consciousness always remains the same eternally. It is the imperishable Self.

Not as a human pattern or any patterns but as pure unchanging consciousness itself. As no-thing.
Do not foolishly believe that you will eventually reunite with some loved ones somewhere in heaven.

That is only some religious creation and fantasy. It makes un-happy people feel better about their lives to
foolishly believe that they will be a lot happier when they are dead. How foolish is that non-sense?.

All the spiritual ideologies people foolishly believe about some life after death are false.
No one goes anywhere but simply remains the exact same essence of existence but form-less.

What is born must surely die. It is just the way life is. Patterns come. Patterns go.
Yet, what happens to a wave that rises, moves and collapses back into the Ocean? Nothing.
It remains Ocean and never was apart from the Ocean or anything other in Nature than Ocean.

Of course without a pattern to express through, there are no thoughts or feelings present
about being either human or a any thing. No-thing remains present and unchanging.
So that is all. Life is the presence of consciousness present in all sentient beings.

Life is Now only. You lost nothing and you gain nothing.
Only fools cultivate spiritual concepts or a before and an after.

Attachments or Love for the dying body is very strong for some people.
Yet, this is IT! Right here and right now is the only moment of existence.

There is no coming or going anywhere.
There is only here and now. No happy place, no heaven or hell.
When the Dream of life ends. Only pure consciousness remains present as no-thing.

Realize that only the body is born to die.

The body has no future so don't get too caught up with it. Simply realize that you are not the dying body,
but the affectionate living-ness or conscious-ness itself that is self-shining naturally within the body.

That realization does not make someone become a Saint or 
holy being with spiritual faculties and all that non-sense.

Simple Self-Realization or understanding
is all that is required to remove ignorance. You gain nothing out of it.
Only ignorance about one's true nature is removed. We call this understanding Wisdom.

It is just fun to know oneself. After all, life is a only a journey of self-discovery.
You are Life. You are consciousness. You are the Self. It is only Natural.

There is nothing whatsoever spiritual about the Infinite Self.
Only the ignorant foolishly 'believes' that there is.

Life is living itself as you. Therefore you cannot acquire or become what you already are.
Realize that you are Life. Life is everyone's true nature. The Infinite Self is Life itself.

The experience is always here and now. Call off the Search. You are that.
You are the Self this very moment. Just being yourself naturally.

To be alive is the experience.
So near and so dear.

The Self is 'I' am.

To know that you are alive presently is 'I' am.
Existence present translates as awareness of being, as 'I' am.

There is no one that does not say 'I' am.

The wrong knowledge of 'I' am the body is the cause of all mischief.
This wrong knowledge must go. That is the Realization.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Understanding is all.

Consciousness present is the knowing that you are.
Dead people do not say 'I' am. Consciousness is present as Life itself.

No one alive can deny being. No one alive can deny one's own existence and say 'I' am not.

There is no reaching, becoming, achieving or attaining anything new, spiritual or special. There never was.
Know the simple Truth! All acquired spiritual knowledge is paradoxically wrong or false acquired knowledge.

There is no spiritual God to bless you, no one to turn to or pray to. Being is the experience. That is all.

Reality is simply being alive and aware of being oneself. 'I' am is not spiritual but natural.
To be or not to be. There isn't anyone alive who does not know and does not say 'I' am.
Know that 'I' am is consciousness itself. Consciousness is the knowing that you are.

Knowing the Self (consciousness) is being the Self, and being means existence,
one’s own existence. No one denies one’s own existence.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

It is all very simple.

What is spiritual about being? Nothing at all.
One's true nature is Natural. That is the Secret. It is Life itself.

The state of pure being which is common to all and which is always
experienced directly by everybody is one's true nature.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Have you been swallowing spiritual crap and buying water by the River all this time?
Foolishly believing you can buy yourself a happy place in heaven
by sucking up to others pretending to be holy? How funny.

You are wasting your time.

There is no such thing. Spirituality is only fiction.
Life is the experience and the only Reality. Existence just is.
Know yourself to be Life itself and you know the imperishable Self.

Instead of wasting your time striving to become something new, special or spiritual.
Get to know you. Know yourself. Who are you? Are you what you appear to be?
Are you your body? Find out! Who am 'I'?

Freedom is not the acquisition of anything new, special or spiritual,
but realizing that you are consciousness in nature. You are that.
Consciousness is nothing spiritual but natural.

That is the Secret to Life.
Realize that you are Life itself.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

Consciousness is the Sought-after Truth.
It is nothing new, spiritual or apart. He is simply Life itself.

Life or consciousness is indeed present because right here and right now you are alive.

Being alive and awake. That alone is abiding as one's true nature. That alone is consciousness or the Self.
Present awareness or being conscious is awareness of being. Consciousness present is 'I' am. The Self is 'I' am.

There is no before or any after. The experience is always here and now.
Being alive is always being the Self. Nobody lost the Self or becomes anything new or special.

To be alive and conscious everyday naturally is to abide as He, the Self or the Reality. Nothing special.
Nothing new or spiritual whatsoever. A paradox. Being the Infinite Self is simply being oneself naturally.

What else do you want? Simply being alive is naturally abiding as one's true nature.
That is the Open Secret. Being. There is no bondage or liberation. Just being oneself naturally.

That is what this consciousness or the Self is. Life itself. Awareness present is being. Nothing new.
'I' am is common to all, plain, boring, ordinary awareness of being oneself and the One Self. That is all.

Spirituality are just a made up illusory carrots used to entice the simple, the weak and the dumb.
None of this crap has anything to do with the Reality. That the Secret. Life is God or He.

The Reality is the simple fact of one's own being. It is 'I' am.

Say 'I' am to yourself. Consciousness is indeed present because you know that you are.
If you are un-conscious. Can you say 'I' am? Of course not! Being awake or aware is this consciousness.

It is pure awareness of being. It  is that 'I' am you know so well.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Free yourself from ignorance only.

Freedom is not the acquisition of anything new, spiritual or special.
Freedom is only the removal of ignorance. Understanding is all that is required.

Bondage and liberation is only psychological. They both do not exist. Just false imagination.
Meaning, if you believe that you are bound. You are only bound to that belief. Just this and nothing else.

Consciousness is the nature of all. Just like water and ice.
All there is present is always this consciousness
only appearing in different forms or patterns.

Simply overlooked. The Self is so common to everyone alive and awake as plain, boring ordinary
everyday 'I' am or pure awareness of being. One's own being is the most plain and the most ordinary to anyone.

Everyone knows and says 'I' am.
Everyone alive is always the Self. They simply do not realize it.

Consciousness or the Self is not something to be freshly acquired or to be achieved.
Like brainwashing or conditioning. Spirituality and religions are the opposite of the Reality.

The ones who Seeks the Self as something spiritual will gain a spiritual way only. Nothing else.
Spiritual Seekers are always looking away from the Reality by striving to become, acquire or experience illusion.

Call off the Search.

Like a 'Diamond' hidden in your pocket. The Self is always here.
Consciousness is always present as your own being. As that 'I' am you know.

You are what you Seek to know. Being conscious is being the Self or conscious-ness.

The Self is not some spiritual presence or experience. The Self is just ordinary consciousness.
Consciousness shines effortlessly as the natural state of being awake or aware all day long. That is all.

We call this Living-ness or conscious-ness Life. That is what it is. Existence.
So near and so dear. It is shining naturally within your own dwelling as your own existence.

One's own being. Never lost but paradoxically present closer than close all along. The Self is 'I' am.
You never lost it. You are it this very moment. Being alive and awake from sleep is abiding as that.

The Self (consciousness) you seek to know is truly yourself.
Your supposed ignorance causes you needless grief
like that of the ten foolish men who grieved

at the loss of the tenth man,
who was never lost.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The only trouble for the veiled and the ignorant Seeker is to foolishly believe
that the Infinite Self is spiritual, when in fact it is simply Natural.

One's own natural existence is the Self.

We call this natural state of existence, being.
That alone is the Real experience AKA the Reality.

Everyone alive is Life or the Self living and expressing itself Naturally.
Nothing spiritual about being the Self. It is simply Natural.

What effort do you have to make to be?
'I' am needs no proof.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

The Natural State.

Did you know that the Reality is nothing spiritual?
So called God is just another name for Life or existence.

Therefore being alive is being God. That is all.

Right here. Right now. You are the Self.

The experience is here and now. The experience is being alive.
There is nowhere to go. Nothing new or different to become.

You do not become the Self. Here and now you are that.
Being alive and aware of being is 'I' am.

You know that you are.

Have a look and see. Who is not aware of being oneself?
Are you alive? Are you aware of being? 'I' am is certain. There you go sport!

That is IT. Full stop.

That is what the fuss is truly all about. No-thing. That is everyone's true nature.
Life or the Self is the unseen power, presence or energy self-shining naturally within the body.

Life is an activity. Lively and buoyant. Life or consciousness is a natural presence of intelligence that is governing
your entire body, beating heart and shining through your eyes. You are the 'host' within your own dwelling.

Consciousness is everyone's true or real nature. Simply overlooked it is nothing new or special to anyone.
Know thyself. Realize that 'I' am does not represent the changing body but the Life essence within the body.

Just like a light bulb cannot shine without electricity.
No body can shine or exist without this living-ness or living presence and power which is consciousness.

After all, if you are un-conscious or dead, are you aware of being? Of course not.
Being alive and conscious is pure awareness of being. Being alive and conscious is 'I' am.
The Self, He, the Reality is always self-shining as pure awareness of being. As that 'I' am you know.

That simply means that everyone's true nature is Life itself. Life is the Lord, He, the Self or the Reality.
It is naturally present inside everybody as pure consciousness or simply unchanging awareness.

Therefore one's true nature is Natural.

That is the Open Secret. The Self or the Lord is nothing new, spiritual or special. So simple.

You cannot become Life. You are Life itself this very moment.
How can you kiss yourself? Being is the experience. The experience is 'I' am.

The experience is simply being alive. Full stop! You can only be what you always are naturally.
Being alive and aware of being is the experience itself. That is what the Self or this consciousness simply is.

In other words to be conscious is to be the Self. To be aware is to be the Self.
Call this living-ness or Life, awareness or consciousness. Both are simply synonymous with being.

It is so easy that it is laughable. So near and so dear. Closer than close is the Self to oneself. He is oneself.

Instead of being oneself. Veiled Seekers strive their whole life to become something else. How foolish.
Call off the Search. What you are looking for is what you already are naturally this very moment. You are that.
That is what the wise have been pointing to for millennia. One Life or One presence of consciousness present in all.

Life which is consciousness or pure existence is the undeniable presence being pointed to as the Reality.
While the veiled and the ignorant is busy Seeking the Self as something new, spiritual or special.

The wise knows that that the Infinite Self or consciousness is nothing spiritual but natural.
One's true nature is Natural. Not spiritual. What can be simpler than this? It is being.

Spirituality is illusion. Existence here and now is the Reality. That is all.

Spirituality and religions are only used to entice the ignorant. It is all a bunch of crap.
What you Seek is what you already are this very moment by simply being yourself naturally.

Why should anyone wait to know one's true nature, when being alive is being the Self? A stranger paradox!

What have you to wait for when it is already here and now?
You have to only look & see. Look at yourself, at your own being.

You know that you are and you like it. Abandon all imagining, that is all.
Do not rely on time, time is death, who waits dies. Life is now only!

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Awareness of being.
'I' exist here and now is 'I' am.

God or the Infinite Self and 'I' am are One if you like.

He is Life itself. Being alive and awake or aware is being the Self.
The Self is the natural state of being. What is special or spiritual about being? Nothing.

Therefore why are self-appointed Gurus and spiritual teachers selling water by the River to the ignorant?
Simple. Same as always. Only to make money and milk the ignorant by selling them stories and fantasy.

Whenever monetary donations are lovingly requested by self-appointed spiritual Gurus, teachers
or some Eastern or Western religious organization for Freedom. Realize that it is simply a scam.

There is nothing to sell. The Reality is not something that can be bought or acquired from others.
Being alive is being the Reality. Consciousness is what we all are naturally already.

So near and so dear. Understanding that being alive is being the Self is all that is necessary.

Freedom is not striving to become Free. But only to realize that there is no bondage.
The one who knows the Truth, knows that one needs nothing.

Being alive is abiding as the Reality.

Understanding is all. Who said Freedom is yet to be reached or attained?
Sold water by the River. Only the ignorant Seeker is told to become Free.

Question your beliefs. The ones who believe are bound,
are paradoxically only bound to that 'belief'.

After all, what binds you? Look for your chains and they will not be found.
That is all there is to be done. The false cannot stand up to investigation.

Don't you know that Seeking spiritual liberation is paradoxically the only bondage?
Spirituality and all religions only point toward the false or illusion. It is the poison not the cure.

Know the Truth! There is no spiritual Awakening or spiritual Liberation, Enlightenment etc. That is all B.S.
Spirituality is only false imagination and superstition. Not the Reality at all, but always going to be illusion.

All the holy Buddhas and holy beings you will ever see on your path or on the Road are in fact frauds.
That is the Secret to Freedom. There never was anything new or spiritual to be freshly acquired.

No spiritual experience or religious state will ever be the Reality.
Therefore why Seek the transient or spiritual experiences?
Why Seek the impermanent or illusion? Isn't it foolish?

Understand what this consciousness simply is.

It is nothing spiritual or religious to be found or acquired outside oneself or through any spiritual denomination or
meditation, but undeniably present within one's own dwelling or body as the most obvious and ordinary. Life itself.

So near and so dear. The Self or consciousness is present as Life or existence.
One does not have to pray or make any kind of effort for this consciousness to be.

One cannot deny one's own existence. That is IT.
One's own undeniable affectionate existence is the Infinite Self.

Life is the absolute Reality. That which is. Existence, consciousness, being.
Being or existing is the experience itself that some call being the Self, He, the Reality.

Life, consciousness, existence which is everyone's natural state of being is in fact one's true nature.

To be or not to be. Everybody alive knows that they are. 'I' am is certain. Being or existence cannot be denied.
That is all consciousness simply is. It is that 'I' am you know so well already as the simple fact of your own being.

The state of pure being which is common to all and which is always
experienced directly by everybody is one's true nature.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Only a fool waits for Freedom.

There is no waiting! Being alive is the experience. So simple.

Life or consciousness is already here. Look at yourself. Look at your own being.
Who is not aware of being oneself? Consciousness present is the knowing that you are.

Consciousness is not some fictitious spiritual or religious state. Consciousness or Life is what we are.
That is all there is to realize or understand. No blazing light or spiritual carrots to chase after.

Awareness of being is 'I' exist or 'I' am.

The Self is being oneself. Being alive and aware or awake from sleep is
this consciousness itself self-shining naturally with everyone as one's own being.

Nothing new, spiritual or holy. Seeking the Self as something new, spiritual or holy is a trap.
Call off the Search. Nothing is missing or lost. Look at yourself. You are that.

See the false as false.

The Reality is the opposite of spirituality. A funny paradox.
Spirituality is nothing but crap given to foolish people to swallow.

All spiritual and religious concepts about the Infinite Self or the Reality are false. Total crap.
After all, being alive is abiding as the Infinite Self. He is Life itself. Being alive is the experience.

That is the Open Secret. Who ever told you you are not the Real Self or the Real-'I'-ty already?

How much time does it take to know that you are? What effort do you make to be?
Who is not aware of being oneself and doesn't know and say 'I' am?

Is there anyone who is not aware of himself? Each one knows,
but yet does not know the Self (consciousness). A strange paradox!
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

To be or not to be.
Everyone knows that they are alive.

The experience is being alive.
Can anyone deny one's own existence and say 'I' am not?

To be alive or to exist is itself abiding as the Reality. That is all folks!
Everyone knows that they exist. 'I' am is always certain. 'I' exist needs no proof.

What is so special or spiritual about being? Nothing whatsoever.
Who told you that there was anything spiritual about 'being' lied to you.

The Self is Life itself. There is nothing spiritual about the Reality but simply natural.

Some spiritual or religious scammer looking the part and pretending to be a holy being sold you water by the River.
All the spiritual and religious knowledge that is offered in books or others as spiritual and religious salvation is crap.

There is no spiritual bondage and there is no spiritual liberation either. Just wrong acquired knowledge.

Spiritual and religious knowledge is wrong knowledge. That is all lies, fiction, false imagination
Prove it to yourself. If you are a so called spiritual Seeker. What are you looking for?

What are you Seeking? To become whole and complete of course.

Well, you are already at the destination you have never left.
Being yourself naturally is being the Infinite Self.

Your own existence or being-ness or 'I' am-ness is the Divine.

Life is the true God, the only Reality, the Oneness or the Infinite Self being pointed to by the wise.
No biggy. You are Life living itself naturally. Nothing new, spiritual or holy about being.

Existence is the natural state of being common to all that is undeniably experienced directly by everyone alive.

Dead people do not say 'I' am. Awareness of being oneself is the Reality. 'I' am is the Self.

When you are sick and tired of Seeking for something new to add on to yourself.
Look at yourself. That is IT. You are that. The Self is another name for 'you'.

Nothing new. Just like someone overlooking a pair of glasses on the top of their head.
Nothing was ever lost. Being alive and aware of being is the experience itself.

Life is the precious and beloved so called 'diamond in your pocket'.
One's own existence is the Precious. Life is the True Beloved.
Existence, being is the Sought-after truth and the Reality.

'I' am alive is the Bliss of the Self. To be alive is to be the Self. Plain and ordinary is the Reality.
'I' exist here and now is being the Self. 'I' am is the Lord or God. One's own self is God. Just this and nothing else.

The experience is here and now. One cannot deny one’s own self.
Existence is the same as happiness and happiness is the same as being.
Why should one seek it?.....   The Self is God. 'I' am is God.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Say 'I' am to yourself. That is IT. Being yourself.
What else did you expect the Self to be? Know that 'I' am is pure awareness of being.

It is pure awareness of being. It (God) is that 'I' am you know so well.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

There is no flash of light or some fictitious tale of a
spiritual experience for the Reality to be. Why Seek illusion?

To know the Self, He, the Reality is very easy.
Stop Seeking and look at yourself. That is the Self you Seek to know.

You are God. Just like that. Without doing a thing.
Without any effort or striving to become anything new, spiritual or special. Rejoice!
Life is the Real God. The Reality present within your own dwelling. Being alive is the experience.

For example. If you seek awareness. Look at yourself.
Aren't you conscious, awake or aware? That is it. Aware-ness.
Being and remaining aware is the awareness that is Sought-after.

Just be aware that you are and remain aware.
You are aware anyhow, you need not try to be.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Are you aware? Undeniably aware of being present? 'I' am is certain?
Awareness is present as the presence of awareness itself which is the knowing that you are.
How else would you be aware of being present or knowing that you are aware, if you are unconscious?

To be aware is the experience. Being aware is awareness.
What could be more simple, effortless and easier than that?
So simple is the Truth about one's true nature that it is laughable.

The ultimate Truth is so simple... At one stage
you will laugh at yourself for trying to discover the Self.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

There is nothing special or spiritual whatsoever about this present awareness. It is pure being.
You are present because you are aware. You are aware because you are present. Present awareness.

Spiritual and religious Seekers eat sugar coated crap but that does not make it true. Even sweetened crap is still crap.
Who ever said to know the Self was either hard, difficult, the acquisition of something new, special or spiritual?
No one wise of course? Only the veiled and the ignorant will cultivate erroneous spiritual ideology.

Being alive and aware of being oneself is the Infinite Self or pure consciousness.
Life expressing itself naturally. That is all the Self simply is. Nothing else.

God is just pure ordinary everyday existence.
Know the Truth! A spiritual or religious God never existed.
Just a bunch of B.S. used by organized Religions to entice imbeciles.

To the ignorant the 'I' is the self limited to the body.
To the wise, the 'I' is the Infinite Self.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The 'I' present in 'I' am. Who am 'I'?

The answer cannot be found in a book or can ever be acquired from others.

Stories and tales of some mystical spiritual transmissions from Guru or God to disciples are crap.
Just made up spiritual carrots used to entice and confuse the weak and the ignorant.

The Self is the core of one's own being. The Self is Life itself.
The unseen Living power or energy within the body that we call Life.

Life is living itself naturally as yourself, because you are Life itself.
Life is just another name for consciousness or the Self and you.

You are Life or you are consciousness or you are the Self.
Being alive and aware is itself the experience. That's it.
Just this and nothing else is the Self or the Reality.

Call off the Search.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Spirituality and all religions are false.
Existence is the Reality. That is all there to realize.
There is nothing new, special or extra-ordinary about the Reality.

Find out what is Real. If you believe yourself to be a spiritual or religious person,
then realize that you are only chasing after false imagination, fiction or illusion,
while the Reality is already undeniably present within your own dwelling.

The experience is always here and now. Life is Now only.
Consciousness is already and ever-present with everyone alive.
Someone sane cannot negate one's own being and state 'I' do not exist.

Knowing the Self (consciousness) is being the Self, and being means existence,
one’s own existence. No one denies one’s own existence.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

'I' exist or 'I' am is certain. One's own self, being or existence cannot be denied. 'I' am is always with you.
That is what 'I' am represents. Existence and consciousness are like water and ice. One and the same.

To be alive and aware of being is abiding as that consciousness itself. That is all. Life is the Self.
Life is the Lord. One cannot negate one's own existence. Being oneself is being the Self.
The Self or this consciousness is that 'I' am you know as your own being.

Who am 'I'? After all, the only fact you are sure of is that you are. 'I' am is certain.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Know yourself to be the Self. Thou art that. Being or existing just as you are.
Know Thyself and you know the One without a second to be your own affectionate ordinary self.

The Seeker is the Sought. Gee you are you. Thou art that. If you don't understand this simple Truth by now,
well then no one can help end the Search for the Self that was never lost. You are what you Seek.

Being alive, being oneself naturally is itself being the Self. Alive-ness. The natural state of being.
That is what being is all about. One's own existence needs no proof. Full stop.
There is nothing more to be realized. Being oneself is being the Self.

You, being the Self want to know how to attain the Self.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The Self is present closer than close. When did you lose 'you'?
Aren't you aware of being yourself right here and right now? You are the Self.

That is all that the Real-'I'-ty is all about.
Being oneself is being the Self. The Sought-after Truth.
Being alive and awake from sleep is the experience itself. So simple.

You gain nothing new or different because you lost nothing to begin with.
Only wrong and stupid knowledge AKA spiritual and religious crap is removed.

The Self is Life and Life is the Self. Call it God or the Lord. Life is the Reality.
Consciousness is the natural presence of existence we all like to be.

No past life existed or future life will ever exist. False imagination.
Plain, boring and ordinary. Life is Now only.

That is why people overlook the Reality.

Life is what is truly happening presently. Here and now.

The ones who Seek the Self as something new, special or spiritual
only gain spiritual ways, practices and false knowledge about the Reality.

Understanding that bondage and liberation do not exist is all that is required.
Who told you that you were bound? Look for your chains and they will not be found.

All spiritual crap that is found in spiritual and religious books is the cause of all mischief.
In truth there is no bondage and there is no liberation whatsoever. Bondage is only psychological.
People sell water by the river to the veil, the weak and the ignorant. Perpetuating a false notion of separation.

If you want to be bound to a false notion of bondage, simply turn toward spirituality and religions.
To adopt any spiritual or religious beliefs is to be bound to false imagination or illusion.

There is no bondage and there is no liberation.
Seeking to become, reach or attain liberation is bondage.

Understanding what the Self, He, the Reality or this presence of consciousness
is truly about is all that is necessary. Removing ignorance is all that is required.

The Sought-after Truth is not found as a spiritual or religious presence or experience
but simply as the true beloved, the precious we all like to be, existence or Life itself.

Ignorant of this simple truth,
innumerable methods under different denominations, such as yoga, bhakti, karma,
each again with many modifications, are being taught with great skill and in intricate detail
only to entice the seekers and confuse their minds. So also are the religions and sects and dogmas.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Spiritual and religious people only entice Seekers for their own benefits.

That is all Sages, Gurus, Buddhas, Yogis and Jnanis are good for.
Only to keep Seekers veiled and on a endless Seeking path.

It is a paradox! It all works in reverse.
When will you find it? The very moment you stop Seeking.

Sought-after Truth is found by not seeking it.
~ Longchen-pa ~

You are already there!
Being alive is abiding as the Reality.

Awareness of being alive here and now is 'I' exist or 'I' am.

Any meditation, practice, yoga etc, are only taking the Seeker deeper into ignorance.
There is no end to spiritual Seeking, simply because there is no such thing
as a spiritual or religious Self, holy presence or entity.

There never was a spiritual goal to be reached.

The Search for a spiritual Self, spiritual liberation or Enlightenment is a Trap!
There is no bondage nor is there a liberation. There is no heaven and there is no hell.

There is no life after death with some happy place waiting for you to go after you die.
Some people only imagine that there is. Like inventing an imaginary friend.

Some will invent all sort of imaginary crap to make themselves feel better.
That is the simple Truth that you will never find inside a spiritual or religious book.
Paradoxically Seekers will believe the false to be true and reject the simple Truth as being false.

Would you buy any book that tells you the simple Truth? Truth hurts.
Spiritual and religious people on sell fiction and cultivate illusion.

They only tell people what they want to hear. They will love you for your money.
See the false as false. Spirituality and religions are the problem not the solution.

To create a religion, a cult or a sect one must acquire followers.
Spiritual carrots are therefore used to entice and confuse Seekers.
There is all kind of crap out there to entice the veiled and the ignorant.

After all, who are spiritual Seekers? Whiners of course.

Unhappy people that are always complaining that nothing is right or happening and
going the direction they want it to be in there lives. Always seeking, crying and complaining.

Wanting to find love, peace and happiness. Of course seeking all these transient states will never bring Freedom.
Therefore for anyone to make money. All that is required is to sell promises of acquiring love, peace and happiness.

Simple isn't it.

Like the promise of a miracle cure.
That is all spirituality and religions are all about.

There are no shortage of self-appointed Gurus and spiritual books out there
on so called self-improvement. There is always a new one that is popping up every week with
new spiritual techniques, concepts, practices and beliefs. Yet why should anyone seek the impermanent?

Life is living itself naturally.
To know the Reality. Do not look far.

Forget everything spiritual and religious and there you are.
The Self is not something spiritual or religious. It is simply being oneself.

Here and now you are that. Being yourself just as you are. Don't you know?
Being alive is the Sought-after Truth and that is abiding as the Reality.
Nothing new, whatsoever spiritual or holy.

The state we call Realisation is simply being oneself.
Not knowing anything or becoming anything.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

Here and now you are That, you are He, you are the Self.
But what does that mean, you are He, That or Self?
Simple, it means that you are awareness.

What is awareness or the Self?
The natural state of being conscious or aware.

What else would 'awareness' be?
Could awareness be something new, spiritual or holy? Of course not.
Life or consciousness present as one's own existence, expresses itself as sentience or awareness.

When Life is present or consciousness, awareness is the natural state of being conscious common to everybody.
In other words, "you are Life" is what the word God or the Self truly represent. Consciousness is Life itself.

After all can any light bulb shine without electricity? Consciousness is the living presence,
unseen power or energy that is self-shining within the body as Life itself and you are that.
Can you be or exist without consciousness? Consciousness must be present for you to be.

Consciousness is the very substratum, the very core of one's own being.
If you remove this life essence, consciousness or living energy from the body,
you end up with a still, cold, quiet and definitely silent corps. In other words dead.

Discriminate between what is Real and what is illusion.

Ignorant spiritual and religious people alike will cultivate silence or stillness in order to reach,
to attain, to experience or even become the Reality. That is all ignorance and non-sense.

Do not try to keep quiet or cultivate silence. The effort is a waste of time and bondage.
Beware of spirituality and all religions. All are fiction and only pointing toward illusion.

The Reality is neither space nor is it silence. The Reality is Life. So near and so dear.
That is the Reality present within your own dwelling. Lively and buoyant.

What you need is to be aware of "being aware".
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Realizing or understanding that the natural ordinary state of being conscious
or being aware or sentient or awake is being the Self is the so called Self-Realization.

That is what this presence of awareness or consciousness or the Self simply is. Just this.
There is no becoming or achieving anything. There never was. Removing ignorance is all.

Look at yourself. Are you aware right now? Yes? That is the Self AKA the aware-ness itself.
The Self or awareness is nothing new but what you already are and have always been naturally.

Awareness is not something new, special, spiritual or holy but simply
the natural state of "being aware" or wakeful-ness common to everyone alive.

Wakeful-ness, sentience, consciousness, awareness are all synonymous with one's true nature.

Wakeful-ness or aware-ness is what the words you are That, He, the Reality or the Self truly represent.
Being aware is abiding as one's true nature. The Self is common to everyone as everyday wakeful-ness.

That is the Open Secret. To know oneself to be present as awareness itself is to know the simple Truth
about one's true nature. Awareness is nothing new or apart. Being awake or aware is abiding as that.

Just like a cloud that is camouflaging the ever-present self-shining Sun.
Remove the B.S. spiritual and religious people claim that their God is and
you are left with the most plain, common, ordinary, boring natural state of being.

So near and so dear. That is what God is. 'I' am is God. Being oneself is the Reality.
No one can deny one's own being. Existence is the Self or consciousness itself.

'I' am means 'I' is or 'I' exist. The 'I' is one's own self and the Self. No dual-'I'-ty.
One's own plain ordinary everyday existence or being-ness or 'I' am-ness is the Divine.

To know thyself simply means who is 'I' real identity. Who are 'you'?
Only the veiled and ignorant will imply and falsely believe the false, that the 'I' is
a finite separate self, ego or an independent entity. When the complete opposite is true.

Know the Truth! That the 'I' is not different from the Lord (consciousness).
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Spiritual and religious people alike will make weak, simple and ignorant people and Seekers falsely believe 
that they are a finite self or that there some ego to get rid of in order to reach, attain or become the Self,
but that is all a lie. It is all false knowledge. Just scam artists pretending to be spiritual and holy
that are cultivating and perpetuating a false notion of separation, duality and bondage.

By telling them spiritual lies they have them bound to illusion.
Yet no one is ever bound or apart from their own being.

To know the Real Self. Turn within not outside.
Within your body is where this consciousness is abiding.
Look at your own ordinary self. Look at your own being. It is 'I' am.

The Self or consciousness is so plain, common and ordinary to everyone alive
that it is simply overlooked. Awareness of being is nothing new.
It is plain ordinary everyday being-ness.

Being is the experience.

Be content with your own existence. Be content with being yourself or 'I' am.
There is nothing spiritual to be reached or attained. Remove ignorance. That is all.

The Self is just another name for 'you'.

Reality is at once being and consciousness.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Just like water and ice is the same essence appearing differently.
Everyone alive is the expression of Life or consciousness.
All there is present or that exist is consciousness.

The experience is here and now.

Everyone knows that they are. Everyone knows and says 'I' am.
Alive-ness, being-ness, 'I' am-ness is the experience itself.
Being alive and aware of being. That is being the Self.

There is no bondage and there is no liberation.
Everyone alive is already this pure consciousness itself.

There is no 'you' and consciousness. There is no separation or duality.
There is only 'you' present as this consciousness itself. Here and now you are that.

The ones who believe that there is God and them or consciousness and them do not know themselves.
Know yourself and you know the so called 'Kingdom of God' or the Oneness to simply be consciousness.

After all, if you are conscious and therefore aware of being yourself, you are the Self. God is that 'I' am you know.
Nothing new. Everyone knows that they are. 'I' am is nothing new or apart, just the simple fact of one's own being.

Remove the veil or camouflage that spirituality and religions cast over the simple Truth. The Self is nothing new,
apart or spiritual. But the most plain, common and ordinary presence you have always known yourself to be.

There are no spiritual states to achieve or any spiritual Self or presence to be experienced as something new or holy.
Realize that Life or consciousness is the Oneness. There is nothing special or spiritual about one's true nature.
Only the veiled and the ignorant created some imaginary spiritual and religious concepts to entice others.

Veiled people want to suck up and worship others believing them to be holy. Making up stories of special faculties.
Just like misery likes company. Ignorant people like the company of others that are also ignorant.

Praying to a God that does not exist and cultivating separation, duality and illusion.
These are called believers, worshippers, spiritual and religious people.

The Reality is 'I' am. That is what has being pointed to for millennia as the Real Self or Real-'I'-ty.
'I' am is nothing spiritual. It is the common to all affectionate knowing that you are.

Who is not aware of himself?

Who does not know and say 'I' am?

Knowing that you are is the simple fact of your own being. Awareness of being is 'I' am.
The Self is yourself. 'I' am alone is the Self, He, That or this consciousness itself that some people call God.
Everyone knows 'I' am because no one alive can claim 'I' am not or that they do not exist. Being is the Reality.

Knowing the Self (consciousness) is being the Self, and being means existence,
one’s own existence. No one denies one’s own existence.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Can anyone negate or deny the Infinite Self and say 'I' do not exist? One's own existence is the Self.
What else did you expected it to be? That is all there is to Realize. Realize that you are or
'I' am is that presence of consciousness itself AKA the Self is yourself.

If you are alive and aware of being yourself, you are the Self. That is all. Call off the Search.
Why would the fish in the water cries that he is thirsty when nothing is lacking or missing?
The experience is here and now. Being alive is the experience itself. Nothing new or apart.

Look at yourself. Look at your own being.
You know that you are and you like it.

To be conscious is consciousness. That is IT.

Consciousness present is pure awareness of being.
The knowing that you are present or present awareness is 'I' am.

'I' am is He, the Self or That. You are what you Seek. Your own ordinary self is the Self.
Only the Search for an imaginary spiritual Self or religious God is a trap. There never was one.
Superstitious people made it all up. Life or existence is consciousness or the Infinite Self. The One.

What have you to wait for when it is already here and now?
You have to only look & see. Look at yourself, at your own being.

You know that you are and you like it. Abandon all imagining, that is all.
Do not rely on time, time is death, who waits dies. Life is now only!

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Don't you know that spirituality and all religions are false?

The Sought-after Truth or the Reality is being alive. That is what it is. Being is the experience.
Life itself is the Self. Alive-ness is abiding as one's true nature. Existence is being the Self. Simple as that.

The Sought-after Truth is one's own existence. One's own self. One's own being. That is all there is to realize.
No one has ever been apart from their own being and therefore separated from their true nature.

Look at yourself. Look at your own being.
You know that you are alive and you like it. Awareness of being is bliss.

Life or one's own existence is the Beloved, the Precious, the Self or "the Diamond in your pocket".
The ones who Seek the Self as something new or spiritual will die ignorant. Look at yourself. Thou art that.

Nothing was ever lost. What are you looking for?
Don't you know that you yourself are the Self already?

The Self (consciousness) you seek to know is truly yourself.
Your supposed ignorance causes you needless grief
like that of the ten foolish men who grieved

at the loss of the tenth man,
who was never lost.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

There is no holy Self or spiritual Self to be found.
That is only fiction found in spiritual books and religious tales.

Understand that existence or consciousness present is simply being alive and aware.

The natural state of being.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

The state of being conscious, cognizant or sentient that ignorant people call 'mind' is in fact the Self.
Being conscious, cognizant, wakeful, aware or sentient is abiding as pure consciousness itself AKA the Self.

Therefore what binds you? Nothing of course. Just a belief of being separated or apart from one's true nature
is the cause of all mischief. You He, you are That, you are the Self or consciousness itself, being just as you are.

After all, prove it to yourself. Have a look at your true nature or real self.
Be still, just pause thoughts for a few moment and realize that you are the very present unchanging
awareness or consciousness or cognizance or sentience that remains present when they are no thoughts.

You are not a thought. You are that which is present and aware of them, thus aware-ness itself.

What can be easier than that to recognize one's true nature or thoughtless Reality?

Don't look for unchanging awareness as something new to be freshly discovered to call the Reality
but simply recognize that which always is present and unchanging is nothing new but simply 'you'.

Gee you are you. Awareness is just another name for 'you'. What else would it be? You are that.

All Wisdom about Self-Realization is simply pointing to have a look at your own self.
Know thyself or who am 'I' is the common Wisdom pointed to for millennia.

Awareness present is me, myself and 'I'.
Being aware is aware-ness of being. Being aware is 'I' am.

Nothing new under the Sun. It is so easy, in fact it is funny how simple it really is.
No time or effort is required. Just common sense and self investigation is self-Realization.

You are awareness.
Being aware is this awareness itself.

Who ever told you the Self was anything else anyhow?

Anyone can effortlessly end the Search for the Self that was never lost.

Not by foolishly cultivating any kind of spiritual practice, meditation,
becoming a Buddhist or adopting any Religion, but simply by understanding or realizing
that "being aware" is being the real Self, present as unchanging awareness itself and that natural state
of being and remaining aware naturally all day long is in fact effortlessly abiding as one's thoughtless true nature.

To become so called spiritual or religious in anyway cannot bring anyone closer to Reality
but paradoxically deeper into ignorance. Spirituality and religions are the poison, not the cure.

That is the only veil to be removed.

After all, a religion is just like any other sect or cult with a spiritual Guru or Teacher that is either dead or alive,
worshipped blindly like a special being, usually mystified as someone with siddhis camouflaged as spiritual faculties.

Someone that can touch, breathe, fart, or stare into someone's eyes
and transmit the loving, healing and liberating Grace of God and all that garbage.

Some people will 'believe' or swallow anything. They even call themselves 'believers'. What a pity.

Only the veiled and the ignorant created Religions with a Guru or Teacher at the center and a God to believe in.
For the wise knows the Truth. That all Religions are just stories, myths and superstitions. Fantasy.

The God of spirituality and religions you find in books does not exist.
Spirituality and religions are all false or ignorance. The Reality is here and now.

The answer to Life, existence or who am 'I' is not to be found in the graveyard of the dead past or in story books.
The Reality is the undeniable presence of Life or consciousness itself that is self-shining naturally within the body.

Consciousness present is 'I' am.

You are the Self already. There never was a God and you.
Awareness is the effortless natural state of being and remaining aware.
To know the Self is so easy. No spiritual B.S. is required. Just be still and voila!

That simple. What remains present without thoughts present is always the real Self AKA unchanging awareness.
Instead of foolishly believing that you are not there yet, realize that you have paradoxically never lost it or left it.

Awareness is nothing new, special or apart. Especially not something spiritual.
Didn't anyone tell you? The experience is here and now. Aren't you aware? That is it.

Just be aware that you are and remain aware.
You are aware anyhow, you need not try to be.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Paradoxically only spiritual and religious people will make up
the Self to be something new, special or spiritual. When in fact it is not that at all.

If you are a self-proclaim spiritual person and you have been Seeking the Self that was never lost for a long time,
perhaps you will wizen up and realize that you have in fact been looking for the Reality in the wrong direction.
Spirituality is the opposite of Reality. One is fiction or imaginary and the other is the fact of one's own being.

Ask any of these spiritual fools what the Self truly is and they cannot answer you. They have no clue.
Most of these people or self-appointed Gurus will hide their ignorance behind spiritual concepts, religious
beliefs, made up spiritual experiences, countless stories and of course their favorite, by selling silence to other idiots.

One's true nature is awareness. Being and remaining aware, conscious or wakeful all day long
is at once being the One Self and one's own self. The 'I' and awareness are One. There is no separation.

Understanding is all. The natural state of being conscious or aware common to everyone
is the natural state of being pointed to by the wise as the Reality. That is IT.

There is no separation, duality or liberation. Only ignorance is the obstacle.
Remove ignorance. There are no two selves, ego, finite self or dual-'I'-ty.

There never was. Only spiritual people AKA ignorant Seekers believe that there is.
All that garbage or false imagination only exist within spirituality which is illusion or fiction.

Awareness is not to be raised, to be gained, to be acquired or cultivated.
Awareness is what you are right now. Being aware is the experience.

That alone is the Self.

Like a fish in the water crying that he is thirsty.

No one can ever become awareness. Realize that being aware is itself abiding as that.
Awareness is not some lost holy grail that is yet to be found. Awareness is simply overlooked.
Awareness is so plain, awareness is so common and always experienced directly by everyone alive.

All the spiritual crap written in spiritual books wrapped around awareness is simply just that. B.S.
Awareness is nothing new, spiritual or special. Awareness is being what you are right now naturally.

That is the Secret to Freedom. You are already that present awareness.
Being awake from sleep, being conscious or aware all day long is being that.

What else did you expect the Infinite Self or God to be? That is it.
Here and now you are that. Present as awareness itself.

To be aware is to be the Self AKA awareness.
There is nothing more to realize.

You are awareness.
Awareness is another name for you.
Since you are awareness, there is no need to attain or cultivate it.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

The Self is nothing spiritual but simply the natural presence of conscious-ness, alive-ness or living-ness within the
body that we call Life. Spirituality is crap, from A to Z. Flush all that crap down the toilet for there is no Truth to
be found there. Reality is the undeniable present awareness known to all as existence, being or 'I' am.

Present closer than close.

In other words the natural state of being
common to everyone alive is one's true nature.

No one can deny the Self or negate one's own existence.
Know that 'I' am is at once the Self and your self. Thou art that.

The experience is here and now. One cannot deny one’s own self.
Existence is the same as happiness and happiness is the same as being.
Why should one seek it?

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Spirituality is all fiction and all religions are simply based
on fear, superstitions and false imagination only.

None of this non-sense is the Reality.
All religions are in fact laughable.

Spiritual Enlightenment is hoax.

The state some people call 'Enlightenment' does not exist.
Just some bull crap made by some idiots for others to swallow.

Being or existence is the experience. 'I' exist is that or 'I' am is that.
Life is the so called Lord, God, Self and that is the Sought-after Truth.

One's own affectionate existence is the so called 'Divine'.
Nothing new, spiritual or special about being.

Is there anyone
who is not aware of himself? Each one knows,
but yet does not know the Self (consciousness). A strange paradox!
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Awareness of being oneself is consciousness. It is 'I' am.
Being alive and aware is what has been pointed to for millennia as one's true nature.
Nothing new, spiritual or apart but present so near and so dear as one's own self, existence or being.

Here and now 'I' exist or 'I' am is that. That is what the fuss is all about.
The Self, consciousness or the Reality is awareness of being. Just this and nothing else.

The Self is being oneself naturally. Now you know the Truth. You are that. Make no effort.
What effort do you have to make to be? Being yourself is abiding as that consciousness itself. Call off the Search.

The Search for spiritual Enlightenment or Freedom is a TRAP!

Consciousness is nothing new, nothing spiritual or different.
Look at yourself. That is the Self. It is that 'I' am you know so well.

To be or not to be. If you know that you are.Consciousness or the Self or God is indeed present.
'I' am, being and consciousness are One. The Self is nothing new but simply the presence of existence or Life.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Paradoxically spiritual and religious people cannot handle this simple Truth. Too simple.
It is like blowing up a fuse. Programmed since childhood to believe the false to be true.
One cannot pray to, worship and cultivate illusion and know the Reality.

Forget everything spiritual and religious and you are there.
Being alive naturally is the experience. That is it.

No promises of Nirvana, Heaven or Hell.
Just simple changeless being.

Simple changeless being is one's true nature.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

There is no becoming. Being is the experience. That is all.
So plain, so ordinary and natural. Shining in plain sight all along.
If you know that you are not unconscious or dead, you are aware of being.

It is pure awareness of being. It is that 'I' am you know so well.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Just like a finger pointing at the moon is not the moon, so don't go beg, worship or suck up to the pointer.
All that anyone can truly do for you is to simply point to your own ordinary self, existence or being.
Look at yourself. Look at your own being. Consciousness is that 'I' am you know so well.

Present awareness or awareness of being present as oneself is 'I' is or 'I' am.
You know that you are present and 'I' am is that consciousness itself. Thou art that.

The Self is your self. Nothing new or apart from you but your own self or being.
'I' am is always with you as the undeniable knowing that you are. Everyone knows 'I' am.
Understanding that you always are the true consciousness you seek to know is all that is required.

The Self is just another name for simply being alive, being conscious and therefore aware of being.
Consciousness present is 'I' am. Awareness of being oneself is abiding as the Self.
No becoming, no reaching or attaining anything. The Self present is 'you'.

You are Life.

Life, existence or consciousness is the Reality.
To be alive is to abide as the Lord, He, the Self or God which is
nothing new, spiritual or far away but naturally present as Life itself.

Life is living itself naturally. That is all there is to understand. Life is the Oneness.
Self-Realization is realizing or understanding that being alive and aware of being oneself
naturally everyday is itself abiding as one's true nature AKA the Infinite Self, the Oneness or God.

What else did you believe the Self would be?
Some spiritual presence, power or energy? A blazing light toward Nirvana?
That is only religious ignorance or B.S. The Self is yourself. So near so dear. It is you.

The Self is Life itself.
Therefore being alive is the experience itself.

Life is living itself as you.
What effort do you have to make to be?
Breathing you, growing your hair and finger nails.
Beating your heart and shining through your eyes this very moment.

Sentience, cognizance, awareness are all different words that are synonymous
with naturally abiding as that consciousness, Life or existence that we call the Self.

To be aware is aware-ness. To be conscious is this conscious-ness.
The Self, existence or Life is the natural activity of being sentient.

What you Seek is what you already are naturally. Nothing new but you.
The Self is yourself. How can you kiss yourself on your own lips?

Knowing the Self (consciousness) is being the Self, and being means existence,
one’s own existence. No one denies one’s own existence.

~ Ramana Maharshi

To be or not to be. The Self or consciousness is existence.
Existence is being. The Self or consciousness is the knowing that you are.
Awareness of being is the Self and you know it so well as your own self, being or 'I' am.

What are you looking for?
One's true nature is nothing new or apart.
How far are you from your own being? You are that.

Look at yourself. Look at your own being. You know that you are.
That is the Self. Awareness of being is 'I' am.

Consciousness is indeed present.

You are Life, you are consciousness, you are the Self.
You are already at the destination you have never left at any time.
Being yourself naturally, just as you are here and now is the experience itself.

Be content with what you are sure of. And the only thing you can be sure of is 'I' am.
The only fact you are sure of is that you are. The only clue you have is your certainty of being.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Of course to turn toward any spiritual or religious person to tell you the Truth,
is exactly like turning toward a thief disguised as a policeman to catch a thief.

After all, how long have you been Seeking for the Self that was never lost?
All these people will ever do for you is to keep you on a Seeking path to nowhere.
Simply because spirituality and religions have absolutely nothing to do with the Reality.

That is the funny paradox.

The Self (consciousness) you seek to know is truly yourself.
Your supposed ignorance causes you needless grief
like that of the ten foolish men who grieved

at the loss of the tenth man,
who was never lost.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Here are a few B.S. that religions and their stupid excrement or Gurus brainwashes ignorant Seekers
and veiled worshippers to foolishly believe. Gurus and religions claim that there is an 'ego' to be killed
or overcome through spiritual practice and discipline.Wrong! There is no ego or finite self to get rid of.

Gurus and religions claim there is a mind to go beyond to discover Freedom, the Self or consciousness.
Wrong! Everyone is already so called 'beyond the mind'. Mind is a only myth. Mind does not exist at all.

Self-appointed Gurus from some religions will claim that there is no one present and that one's self does not exist.
Wrong! Everyone is the One Self and existence itself. So much of what spiritual and religious Seekers have
acquired from books and others as spiritual and religious knowledge is in fact wrong knowledge.

Are self-appointed Spiritual Gurus, Sages, Masters, Buddhas and Jnanis with their Teachings
that are aligned with Eastern and Western religions right and am 'I' wrong? Find out!
The false cannot stand up to investigation.

Don't you get it by now?

All that is spiritual and religious knowledge is false.
Spiritual and religious knowledge is the only bondage.

Take the concept of 'ego'. What ego?

Religions, Gurus and Teachers always talk about an 'ego'. I say there is no 'ego'. Ego never existed.
Ego is only a false concept of duality that people have acquired from religious books and others.

If you seek the ego you will find, it does not exist.
That is the way to get rid of it. Look for it and it will not be found.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Yet believers will foolishly spend their whole life trying to get rid of or kill an illusion.
How foolish is that? They believe the false to be true and act accordingly. Yet there is no bondage.

Never realizing that they are only bound to a false 'belief' or wrong acquired spiritual or religious knowledge.
Spiritual and religious people only 'believe' that what they are told is true. They do not investigate what is real.

It is all non-sense. Spirituality and religions are not your Friend. Neither are so called Buddhas,
Sages, Saints, Gurus, Teachers and Jnanis. They all are the greatest illusion or the biggest lie.

Like a fish always in the water crying that he is thirsty.
Foolish spiritual and religious people cry over nothing. How funny.

Only remove ignorance and you will have done all that needed to be done.
The belief in any spiritual Enlightenment, Realization or Freedom is a Trap!

It is all a hoax or a myth. The wise have understood this.
The ignorant is like a fish in the Ocean searching everywhere for the Ocean.

You, being the Self (consciousness), want to know
how to attain the Self (consciousness).

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The only Wisdom necessary for Freedom is to realize that you have never been apart or separated
from your true nature at any time. But that being alive and aware or wakeful everyday is abiding as that.

Hidden in plain sight all along. Like a 'Diamond' hidden in your pocket.
The only trouble for Freedom is paradoxically the acquired veil of
spiritual and religious knowledge which is wrong knowledge.

For whoever seeks God in some special way, will gain the way and lose God who is hidden in the way.
But whoever seeks God without any special way, finds Him as He really is...
He is Life itself.

~ Meister Eckhart ~

The Self AKA present awareness or this consciousness itself is
nothing spiritual but simply natural. The Reality is Life itself.

Most people overlook the most obvious. Life itself.
Like water and ice. One cannot 'be' without it.

What is the most obvious presence within the body? Life.
One's own life, being or existence is the Self. That is the Open Secret.
You do not have to strive to become alive. Being alive is the experience itself.

You wander restlessly from forest to forest
while the Reality is within your own dwelling.

~ Kabir ~

Unless you understand that this consciousness some call God or the Infinite Self is simply Life itself.
How can there be any Freedom from a false notion of separation and bondage?

Omni-present. Present in Nature and within your own dwelling.
Life is this consciousness itself, Life is the Infinite Self.

The Precious and the true Beloved.

Are you alive? Are you aware of being? You cannot say 'I' am not or 'I' do not exist.
Your own existence here and now or the knowing that you are present is certain. It is 'I' am.

The Self, He, the Reality or consciousness present is that being-ness or 'I' am-ness that you are.

What have you to wait for when it is already here and now?
You have to only look & see. Look at yourself, at your own being.

You know that you are and you like it. Abandon all imagining, that is all.
Do not rely on time, time is death, who waits dies. Life is now only!

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

The one who knows the simple Truth about Freedom will only say what I am saying know.
Freedom from all bondage is the simplest thing in the world. Child-like simplicity.

Simply because there is nothing you have to do to become Free.

Only understand that there is no bondage. That is all Freedom is truly about.A funny paradox.
Ignorant people want to believe that the Self is something spiritual but it is not! Spirituality is a lie.

Don't you know that the Self or consciousness is natural not spiritual?
To look for the Self or consciousness as something spiritual is to always miss it.

To be conscious is consciousness or the Self.
What is so special or spiritual about that? Nothing.

One's true nature is self-shining naturally as Life itself. That is the Open Secret.
Once you understand this, then you know the Truth and that alone sets you Free.

Wisdom is Freedom. Ignorance is the only veil that is to be removed with understanding.
Understanding alone is Freedom. Just this and nothing else.

Freedom is very easy.

Super duper simplicity. There is nothing more easy.
All that is required is to remove the false notion of being bound.

Liberation is our very nature. We are that... It is not to be freshly acquired.
All that is necessary is to get rid of the false notion that we are bound.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The ones who Seek desperately liberation,
only foolishly 'believe' that there is bondage. Oops.

Oh well! What to do!

Seekers never stop for a moment to have a look at their so called 'chains'.
If you look for your chains, paradoxically they will not be found. Then what binds you?

Spiritual and religious people have picked up stupid words of ignorance that became strong 'beliefs'
and paradoxically their very own imaginary cage or prison. Bondage is all and only psychological. Nothing else.

You are ever-Free already. Nothing new is to be freshly acquired.
Ignorance is the only obstacle to be removed. That is all.

You are already Free! What can be more easy?
There is no bondage and of course no liberation either.

Why piss your life away?

No one can give you Freedom, especially a spiritual or religious person.
Freedom is not to be gained or acquired from books, retreats or others.

Freedom is only understanding that there is no bondage.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

Veiled by ignorance and wrong habitual knowledge.
The ignorant falsely believes that there is a 'mind'.

What 'mind'? Can you show me your 'mind'?

Look for a mind and it will not be found.

Just like a mirage of water in the desert is only an illusion.
The concept of a 'mind' present anywhere is also illusion. Just this and nothing else.

Of course self-appointed Gurus will preached to ignorant fools that they should strive to go beyond the mind.
When in fact neither a mind or an ego ever existed. Everyone is already so called home, they simply do not realize it.

Self-appointed Gurus and spiritual Teachers that talk about 'mind' and 'ego' are simply ignorant people
that do not know the Reality. They are only cultivating the false, illusion or false imagination.

Only veiled and ignorant people that do not know themselves
will cultivate false erroneous arrogant notions of separation and duality.

After all, bondage and liberation are in fact all and only psychological. That is all.
People that believe are bound are paradoxically only bound to their acquired 'beliefs'.

Everyone is already behind the mind and ego is not. That is the Secret to Oneness.
You are the One without a second or two already. Remove ignorance only.

The Self, He, the Reality is already here.
Freedom is already here!

Why chase after spiritual carrots when it is all crap?
The Secret to spiritual Enlightenment is that it does not exist.

Spiritual Enlightenment is only a hoax, a myth or a scam that is used by self-appointed spiritual Gurus
or so called Buddhas to entice veiled and ignorant people to foolishly believe the false or illusion to be true.

There is no spiritual power, presence or energy of any kind. Some stupid people made it all up.
The Reality is consciousness. Consciousness is nothing new, special or spiritual, but simply Life itself.

Seeking spirituality or religion is to cultivate illusion.

The Reality is nothing new, spiritual or religious to be reached, attained or acquired.
Closer than close. It is what you are and have always been your whole life naturally.

The experience is here and now. Being is the experience.

There is nothing special or spiritual whatsoever about being. Life is Now only.
Life or existence is what is happening while Seekers are foolishly looking for something new.

Being alive is abiding as that. Consciousness and Life are synonymous with being. One's own existence is that.
The Self, He, God or the Oneness is simply Life itself. Life is everyone's true nature. Nothing new.

Alive-ness. Living-ness. Conscious-ness. Life is the true beloved.
Life is the Reality. Consciousness is the true power present within the body.

So plain and so ordinary. Consciousness is the natural presence that we call Life
that is undeniably beating your heart this very moment and self-shining through your eyes.
Consciousness is the seer, the knower, the thinker, the Reality present as your ordinary everyday self.

To know the Self simply look at your own self.
The Self or Life or consciousness are just different names for 'you'.
Gee! you are you, the Self is you. Just as you are this very moment naturally.

The Self is nothing new. The 'I' or the plain boring ordinary everyday 'you' is not
different from the Self. You are that. That is the so called Self-Real-'I'-zation is about.
There is nothing spiritual or special about the Self. Consciousness is Life, existence or being.

Remove ignorance. Any concept of spiritual Enlightenment is only for stupid people.
There is no such thing. It is just like any other crap that is given to a pig to swallow.

There are no spiritual or religious goals to be reached.

That is what self-appointed spiritual Gurus and religious teachers
will never reveal to their followers. Liars and scammers disguised as holy beings
have made up some story and experience they call Enlightenment, Realization or liberation.

I laugh when I meet stupid Guru lovers and worshippers of spiritual or religious leaders that have convinced
themselves and of course will also try to convince others with all sorts or tales and stories, even writing books of
how great their spiritual Guru or Master is to them, that their beloved Guru, Teacher or Master is a special being
or God among men with great powers and spiritual faculties.

Chasing after spiritual carrots, believing false promises of salvation, spiritual Enlightenment and Freedom.
Fearing karma and all sorts of stupid religious B.S. they have acquired from these people,
spiritual books and others that are also veiled and ignorant of the simple Truth.

These idiots have not yet realized that a so called Buddha is just an ordinary person and an ordinary person
is already a Buddha. There are no special beings or even a loving God present anywhere for that matter.

Why pray and worshipping illusion? Isn't that foolish? There are no God or Gods out there.

Ignorant fools only imagine that there is, they just 'believe' in a God and in some holy beings and
are therefore called 'Believers', Worshippers or Sheepos. Never questioning what is Real.

There has never been any spiritual or holy beings with great powers and faculties.
Freedom is not acquired. Freedom is understanding that there is no bondage.

One only 'believes' there is a God and there is bondage, but there is not.
The concept of a spiritual God or religious entity is only fiction.
Spirituality is born out ignorance, superstition and fear.

God is you are. The Reality is present within
your own dwelling as Life itself. Life is the Self.
That is all Self-Realization is about. Existence is the Divine.

The Guru cannot give you anything new, which you don’t have already.
Removal of the notion that we have not realised the Self is all that is required.
We are always the Self, only we don’t realise it.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Only crap can be acquired from a spiritual Guru. Take it for granted.
Why Seek to acquire crap and B.S. from others? Isn't it foolish?

Know the truth! There are no spiritual or holy transmissions.
The Self is not something that can ever be acquired from others.

The Self is you are or 'I' am.

What is 'I' am? Is 'I' am the name of God? Of course not, that is stupid B.S.
To be or not to be. 'I' am is the knowing that you are. Present awareness. 'I' am is awareness of being.

'I' am represents the Self or consciousness present as yourself.
You are that. Consciousness present is 'I' am.

Everyone knows and says 'I' am.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

How far is the Self from yourself? You are the Self.
Here and now you are that. What you Seek is what you are right this very moment.
There is no 'mind' to go beyond or any 'ego' to get rid of. Only the veiled and ignorant believe that there is.

Foolishly striving to become what they already are. Spiritual and religious Seekers believe that the Self is
yet to be reached or attained. But that is all false. The Self is not anything new or spiritual to be attained.

It is what we are.

To be alive and aware, to be sentient, cognizant or wakeful is to be the Self, He, the Reality or God.
The Self or consciousness present is the natural state of being and remaining aware all day long.
Awareness is nothing new, special or spiritual. Aren't you aware? That is the Self.

Forget all about spirituality and religions.
The Self or God never was and never will be some
fictitious spiritual or religious presence. That is the paradox!

The rule of thumb is that if it is spiritual or religious in any way it is pure crap.

To go see Guru after Guru, going to satsang and spiritual retreats
waiting for a holy transmission or spiritual experience etc, is only for imbeciles.
It is all pure stupidity and ignorance. It is all a hoax from scammers pretending to be holy.

Nothing new, special or different is to happen.
Only ignorance is to be removed with understanding. That is all that needs to be done.

Who told you that you were bound? There is no bondage and there is no liberation.
After all, find out what binds you and your chains will not be found. Have a look and see.

False imagination causes psychological suffering due to ignorance only.

Freedom is not and never will be the acquisition of anything new, spiritual or holy. Why Seek B.S.?
Realize that Freedom is only removing the false notion of separation, duality and bondage.

That is why one only 'believes' that there is bondage and will Seek liberation.
Only imagining that there is. When in fact there is no bondage at all.

It is only a false notion.

The Search for Spiritual Enlightenment,
Realization and Freedom is a trap. It does not exist!

Did anyone tell you? To be the Self is to be oneself.
And to be oneself is to be the Self. That is all. The Self is nothing new.

The state we call Realisation is simply being oneself.
Not knowing anything or becoming anything.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

You gain nothing or become nothing.
Just be just as you are.

Be yourself. That is abiding
as the Infinite Self. Simple no!

Spiritual people sell false imagination to the ignorant.
People that like the smell of their own farts using spiritual carrots to entice others
so that they are worshipped and can milk a fee out their desperate and veiled followers.

Know the simple Truth!

The Self is simply Life itself. Being oneself naturally is being IT.

What you Seek is nothing new, spiritual or special but what you are naturally.
Everything spiritual and religious people talk about is false. God, the Self is Life itself.

What is real is nothing new, spiritual or special but what you are here and now.
Are you alive? Are you aware of being yourself? 'I' am is certain? Voila!

Consciousness is present because you are aware of being.
The Self is just another name for awareness of being.

It is pure awareness of being.
It is that 'I' am you know so well.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Being alive and aware of being oneself is being the Infinite Self, He, God, the Lord, the Atman etc.
So near and so dear. Can anyone deny one's own being? Negate Life or consciousness is present?

Are you laughing at the joke of it all?
Like a fish in the Ocean searching everywhere for the Ocean.
What you are looking for is nothing new or far away. It is what you already are naturally.

At one stage you will laugh at yourself for trying to discover the Self....
Only remove ignorance. That is all there is to be done.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Know the Secret!

There is nothing new, spiritual or holy about the Reality. There never was.
Therefore the ones who Seek something new, spiritual or holy are only chasing fantasy.

You find the Self and the absolute Reality the very moment you stop Seeking it.
Look at yourself. At your own plain ordinary being and you have found it.

Life, existence is that consciousness itself
that we call the Infinite Self or God. That is all there is to realize. That we are Life.
Freedom is no flash of light or spiritual revelation. Just understanding this simple Truth.

What have you to wait for when it is already here and now?
You have to only look & see. Look at yourself, at your own being.

You know that you are and you like it. Abandon all imagining, that is all.
Do not rely on time, time is death, who waits dies. Life is now only!

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

I hear of people spending an entire lifetime Seeking the Self,
how stupid is that? It is just plain dumb of course.

The easiest and simplest way to recognize one's thoughtless true nature or the Self is to pause thoughts. That simple.
Just be still for a moment. What happens if you pause thoughts? Thoughts disappear! So obvious isn't it.

Know thyself. Have a look at your real self. The you that does not come or go.
Pause thoughts and the Real or unchanging thoughtless 'you' remains self-revealed.
Just like when they are no clouds present the unchanging Sky is effortlessly self-revealed.

When thoughts disappear, consciousness alone remains self-revealed as the thoughtless Reality or you.
After all, Self means you. Look it up in a dictionary. Unchanging awareness is just another name for you.

That is all it takes to know thyself. Be still and realize that when no thoughts are present in that very moment
the self, the 'I' or the you that remains undeniably present and unchanging naturally as present awareness itself
is that which you Seek to know. In other words you are that or simply 'you' are Seeking 'you'. The Self is nothing new.

It requires no time, no practice or effort of any kind to know the Self or one's true nature or true consciousness.

To spend years striving to realize the Self or to become enlightened or Realized is only for idiots.
Forget about all that spiritual Mambo Jambo and use your head.

Understand how simple the Reality really is.

Notice or realize that you are the consciousness itself or the presence of unchanging awareness
that remains undeniably, effortlessly and naturally present when they are no thoughts present. That is all.

There you go sport. Just be still and voila! You are that. That is all that is required to so called "realize the Self".
Who ever said Self-Realization was either hard, difficult or for the rare few was a stupid babbling idiot.

Self-appointed spiritual Gurus and religious Teachers
always lie to veiled and ignorant Seekers about the simple Truth.
In fact the ones who can do Teach crap. Take the spiritual carrot some call Satsang.

Beware of all these so called holy Buddhas, spiritual Gurus, Sages, Saints and religious Teachers for they are liars.
Have a good look for yourself, investigate and see the false as false, for the false cannot stand up to investigation.

There is no becoming anything. Consciousness is always present as one's own everyday self.
There is no reaching or attaining anything new, special or especially spiritual.

Didn't anyone tell you? It is so easy.
It is the easiest thing in the world to realize the Self.

All anyone has to do is to be still. How much time and effort does it take?
Be still, then all that remains present is you. Simply because thou art that.

'I' am that 'I' am. You are the consciousness that always remains present as your
very own affectionate plain ordinary everyday boring self. As that 'I' am you know.

The Self is just another name for you.
Be still and know that 'I' am is that consciousness itself.
Nothing new or different but what you already are and have always been.

Make no effort, your effort is the bondage.
All that is required to realize the Self (consciousness) is to be still.
What can be easier than that?
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Once you understand that the Self is not some spiritual, religious or holy presence like blind fools believe it is,
then you know the Truth. Consciousness is simply Life itself. One's own being or existence is abiding as that.

The Self or consciousness is the natural state of being common to everybody.
That is the Open Secret. Forget all spiritual and religious garbage.

To be conscious is this consciousness itself. Full stop.

That is what the wise realizes about his or her true nature.
To be conscious is consciousness. To be aware is awareness. That is the Self.

Realize that all the spiritual and religious garbage that self-appointed Gurus and spiritual Teachers
write in books, share in talks, satsangs etc are all wrong knowledge that is only used to entice the simple,
the weak, the dumb and imbeciles to believe the false or illusion to be true. Usually for a fee AKA donation.

Selling water by the River if you like. It is all spiritual crap or religious carrots used to entice only. All B.S.
Paradoxically whatever spiritual and religious people have come to believe to be true is all false. Funny no!

The Infinite Self, He, the Reality or God is always
undeniably present closer than close to oneself, it is so near and so dear.
Ordinary and common to everybody. What is the Infinite Self or this consciousness itself?

Sentience. To be awake or aware everyday is this consciousness itself. That is IT.
Awareness of being is consciousness self-shining as the knowing that you are.

What else do you want? There is no special or spiritual Self to be discovered.
Spiritual and religious weirdo only believe in spiritual and religious crap.
Like being hypnotized or brainwashed by acquired spiritual garbage.

To look for the Self is to always look away from the Self. Know thyself.
Know that 'I' am represent being oneself and being the Self.
That is all what consciousness truly is. Being or the 'I'.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The experience is always here and now. Being is the experience.
Knowing that you are alive and kicking is being the Self. That is all.

The Self is nothing new. Life, existence or consciousness are synonymous with simply being alive and aware.
Self, He, the Lord, the Oneness, God or the Reality etc, are different names for consciousness which is 'I' am or being.

Knowing the Self (consciousness) is being the Self, and being means existence,
one’s own existence. No one denies one’s own existence.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The Self is not gain or found.
You lost nothing and gain nothing whatsoever.

To know the Self is very easy. Consciousness is only to be understood.
There is no becoming or acheiving anything new, special, different or spiritual.

In fact there never was any spiritual presence, power or holy Self.
Only ignorance is removed with understanding. Understanding is Realizing.
That is all what 'Self-Realization' is truly all about. Understand and nothing else.

Life common to all is everyone's true nature. That is the Reality shining in plain sight.
The natural state of being alive or alive-ness or living-ness which is conscious-ness is one's true nature.

To be or not to be. 'I' exist or 'I' is or awareness of being oneself naturally everyday is simply 'I' am or you are.
That is the Self present as you are. What else did you expect the Self or this consciousness to be?

A flash of Light! Oops. Wrong.

If you have met holy Gurus and spiritual Teachers that pretend to have acquired or become something new,
special or spiritual in any way, realize that they are only lying to you.

Just scammers that crave attention,
recognition and so many are after sex, power and money.
Playing the Guru is good business for spiritual and religious con artists.

It is all B.S. of course but you must investigate for yourself and see if what I am saying is true.
Once you see the false as false, illusion will no longer fool you. Gurus are not the Reality.
Just like a finger pointing at the moon is not the moon.

Consciousness or Life is the Reality.

You wander restlessly from forest to forest
while the Reality is within your own dwelling.

~ Kabir ~

Can you separate yourself from your own being?
Can you deny your own existence and say 'I' do not exist or 'I' am not?

Just like clouds are not attached to the Sky. Guest come and go but the 'host' remains present and unchanging.
Consciousness is the 'host' present within your own dwelling. Your own self is the Self AKA consciousness.
After all, who is always present and aware of this and that? 'I' am of course. Consciousness is 'I' am.

It is pure awareness of being.
It (consciousness) is that 'I' am you know so well.

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Who does not say 'I' am all day long? 

People cry like if they have lost the Self, when everyday 'I' am is the Self.
They have never lost the Self, they only believe that they have lost something
which paradoxically they already are and have always been all along, no one told them.

'I' am is the Self. The Self is the plain good ol' boring everyday you.
'I' am represent awareness of being 'you' and the Self. Thou art that. That simple.

Is there anyone who is not aware of himself? Each one knows,
but yet does not know the Self (consciousness). A strange paradox!
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

The Reality is simply the natural presence of Life itself or consciousness or natural intelligence
and existence that is undeniably present, effortlessly governing and functioning your body.
The state of pure being. Consciousness is the Self and the Self is simply Life itself.

Remove ignorance. Understand what this consciousness is.

To be aware and remaining aware or wakefulness is consciousness or the Self.
That is what this plain ordinary affectionate presence of awareness or consciousness simply is.

The Self is simply being alive and aware of being oneself naturally. Nothing new, mystical or holy.
You are Life itself. Life is living itself as you. Everyone's undeniable existence is that.

The Self, He, the Reality is very common, plain and ordinary.
Spirituality and all religions are paradoxically crap, B.S. and lies.

Find out what is Real!

Then it will dawn on you that you have only been looking away from it all this time and 
you will have a good laugh at yourself for being so foolish at crying over nothing at all.
After all, when did you lose yourself? 'I' am is always with you as you.

The Self (consciousness) you seek to know is truly yourself.
Your supposed ignorance causes you needless grief
like that of the ten foolish men who grieved

at the loss of the tenth man,
who was never lost.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

Spiritual Seekers go from forest to forest, Guru to Guru, temple to temple while the Reality is always present
within their own body or dwelling as simply the most obvious and ordinary, as Life or one's own existence itself.

The Self, He, the Reality or consciousness is simply what we all are naturally. It is nothing new or special.
We call this undeniable presence of consciousness or existence, Life, sentience, awareness, being.

Here and now we are alive and therefore consciousness is indeed present because 'I' am is certain.
Awareness of being is 'I' am and the Self. No one can deny the Self because no one can say 'I' am not.

The Self is 'I' am.

Not some spiritual or holy name of God 'I' am and all that B.S. but simply me, myself and 'I', is that
'I' am-ness, being-ness or consciousness that I am talking about. One's own affectionate self is the Self.

Everybody knows and says 'I' am.

The Self or consciousness is synonymous with one's own being-ness or 'I' am-ness.
Consciousness is synonymous with the knowing that you are. Present awareness is 'I' am.

'I' am or 'I' exist is the Self. Same, same. Full stop! So simple.
Life, consciousness, existence and one's own being are One. Life is That.

Know the simple Truth that spiritual and religious people do not want you to know.
There is no God and there is no bondage or liberation either.

That is the joke of it all.

People pretending to be spiritual or religious entities will entice veiled and ignorant Seekers
with false imagination, fantasy and illusion. All for money, gratification and recognition.

For example the false notion that there is a higher consciousness that is yet to be reached or attained through
either spiritual or religious practices like meditations, mantras, devotion, renunciation, yogas etc, etc,
is the biggest bunch of crap out there that is used by scammers and con artists as a spiritual carrot
to entice the veiled and the ignorant Seekers into sucking up and cultivating illusion.

Any concepts of a higher consciousness are just made up spiritual crap. There is no such thing.
There is no higher or lower consciousness. There are no higher or lower Self either.
There is only the One Self or One consciousness present and we all are that.

The Reality or true consciousness does not change. It does not go up or go down.
There is no higher or lower in Omni-presence. Consciousness always remains the exact same.

It is pure changeless being.

Simple changeless being is one's true nature.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

No one alive ever fails to experience the Self directly as Life itself. It is the natural state of being common to everyone.
Consciousness is not some new, special or spiritual state to be reached. That false notion is just a bunch of B.S.

To know one's true nature is very easy. It is laughable how simple the Truth about oneself really is. Know thyself.
To be conscious is this consciousness itself. That is all what the fuss is simply about. Just this and nothing else.

Leave the Seeking for a higher state of consciousness to ignorant fools. Because it is only illusion.
Life itself is the presence of consciousness. Being alive is abiding as the Self, He, God, the Reality, the Atman, etc.

Remove the camouflage of ignorance. Understand what is being pointed to as your true nature.
The Self or consciousness are just different names for Life itself or existence. Simple.
That is what the Self simply is, consciousness is Life or existence itself.

Realize that the Search for a spiritual Self, higher Self or higher consciousness is a trap.
If you are alive and aware of being. You are abiding as that. Full stop. That is the experience.
You are abiding as the Self by being yourself just as you are here and now. Call off the Search.

What you Seek is what you are. Alive-ness, Living-ness, being-ness, 'I' am-ness.
Nothing new, spiritual, special or fancy. Paradoxically consciousness is so plain,
so common and so ordinary to everybody, it is plain ordinary everyday being-ness.

To be or not to be. Who is not aware of being oneself? Everyone knows that they are.
No one can deny one's own being. Consciousness present is 'I' am and me myself and 'I'.

The only obstacle to be removed is the false notion
that the Self is something new, spiritual or special. That is all.

You do not to strive to become the Self. Being alive is being the Self. What can be easier than that?

No time or effort is required. How much time does it take to know that you are?

All that is required to know one's true nature is to remove ignorance and simply understand
or realize that being alive is the experience. Life or existence itself is abiding as that.

What have you to wait for when it is already here and now?
You have to only look & see. Look at yourself, at your own being.

You know that you are and you like it. Abandon all imagining, that is all.
Do not rely on time, time is death, who waits dies.

Life is now only!
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

That is what being the Self is all about. Just this and nothing else.
After all, what else did you believe it was all about?

It is all and only about being.

The wise understood this. While the ignorant only imagines
that the Self, He, the Reality or God is something else.

Oops!

Don't you know that the words God, Self, He, the Reality, the Atman, the Lord, the Oneness, consciousness,
pure intelligence energy, being, existence etc are simply pointing to plain ordinary Life itself?

That is what everyone's true nature simply is. Life is the Oneness present in all that we call consciousness.
Consciousness present is simply being. No one is ever apart from their own being-ness or 'I' am-ness.

Anyone Seeking the Self, He, the Lord, God or consciousness as something new, spiritual, religious or special
will only die ignorant of the simple Truth. All along not realizing that being alive is abiding as the absolute Reality.

After all, what is always present here and now that no one can ever deny?
One's own being-ness, 'I' am-ness or existence. Life or consciousness present is 'I' am.

So simple is the ultimate Truth. That is the Open Secret to Freedom. Thou art that.
There are no special state of consciousness. No spiritual Self or God.

Just existence itself is God. Life is God.
To be alive is to be God. Life and God are synonymous.

No time or effort is required to know the Self or God. Who is not aware of being?
Look at yourself here and now. God is 'I' am. You know that you are and you like it.

That is IT. Nothing new, special or spiritual about being. Just 'I' am or knowing that you are.
Awareness of being is God or 'I' am. Life is the undeniable presence that people call God.

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Like a fish in the water foolishly crying that he is thirsty.

It is all so super-duper simple that it is laughable. I guess it is so easy to know the Self that most people
reject the simple Truth believing it to be false and turn toward the false believing it to be true. A strange paradox.

After all, what else did you expect the words Self, He, the Atman, the Reality, God or consciousness are pointing to?
Life itself. That is IT. Nothing new or spiritual. Just what we are and always have naturally. That is all.

That is the fun part of self-discovery. You have never lost or ever been apart from your own affectionate existence.
Closer than close. Existence is the "Diamond in your pocket" so to speak. Life is the Precious and the Beloved.

Only remove ignorance.
That is all there is to be done.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Ignorance is a bitch, not bliss.

Ignorant spiritual and religious Seekers look away from the Reality and foolishly will spend their whole life
looking up, worshipping and praying to some imaginary God hidden somewhere in the sky. Oops.

God is not something apart from you or hidden far away.
Life is the Kingdom of God. Life is the Oneness. Consciousness is the Lord.
Everywhere you look you see it's expression. We also call this presence of consciousness Nature.

Consciousness is nothing new to anybody.
It is the living presence, intelligence and power in the body.
The living-ness effortlessly beating your heart and self-shining through your eyes.

Therefore realize that whenever you look for it you are only looking away from it. Seeing is being it.

Forget all about the spiritual and religious crap out there and have a look at your true nature. It is nothing new.
Spiritual and religious people are enticed by self-appointed Gurus and Teachers for fame, recognition and money.

All acquired spiritual and religious knowledge from books and others
is the greatest ignorance because it is all false. Not true. That is the funny paradox.
Forget everything spiritual and religious and voila! You are there. Being oneself is being the Self.

Present here and now. To the wise Life is God. One's own existence is the Divine. Consciousness is pure being.
You already are what you Seek. Life is the Self. There is no becoming, attaining or achieving anything.

The wise understands that being alive and aware of being oneself naturally everyday is being
the Self, He, the Reality. That is what 'I' am represents. Pure awareness of being is existence itself.

Being alive is being the Self.
Being alive is the experience itself. That is the Joke of it all.

Once you get that there is absolutely nothing new, nothing spiritual, religious or special to get,
you finally got it. Then you laugh at the joke of it all. Everything sold as spirituality and religions is illusion.

The Reality is always here and now. Life itself is the Reality or the Self. So simple isn't it!

Being alive and aware of being oneself or wakeful-ness is abiding as that. Life is THAT. What else do you want?
That is all there is to understand or realize. To know this simple Truth is to remove the veil of ignorance.

Being alive is the Reality itself. There never was some spiritual Self, any God or Divine presence to discover.
What you Seek is what you are. Like a fish in the Ocean searching for the Ocean. You are already the Self.

That is what the fuss is all about. Everyone Seeking the Self are always missing the Self.
If you are alive and sure that you are not dead then you are THAT.

Life, consciousness, existence is being oneself naturally and that living-ness is abiding as THAT.
No one can deny being. The Self is undeniably present here and now. 'I' exist needs no proof.

Knowing the Self (consciousness) is being the Self, and being means existence,
one’s own existence. No one denies one’s own existence.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

All that is required for so called Freedom from all bondage is to simply remove
the false idea that we are bound. Bondage is only a false notion.

What binds you other than the false belief of being bound?
Look for your chains and they will not be found.

Bondage is only psychological. That is all it is.
There is no bondage and there is no liberation either.

One only 'believes' that there is bondage.

Question your beliefs.

Like a fish in the water crying that he is thirsty.
Separation and bondage are just imaginary or illusion.

Spiritual Freedom or spiritual liberation or spiritual Enlightenment etc,
are all nothing but fictitious concepts or beliefs. Spiritual carrots if you like.

By acquiring wrong spiritual and religious knowledge
people have invented a false notion of separation and bondage.

That false notion must go and that alone is so called Liberation.

Freedom is so easy. Remove ignorance only. That is all that is necessary. Understanding is all.
No time, practice or effort is required. Didn't anyone tell you? Child-like simplicity.

Wisdom is Freedom.

After all, no one becomes Free. Only the false notion or wrong idea of being bound
is removed with understanding. That is all what Freedom is simply about. Nothing else.

The wise will only say what I am saying now.
Find out if what I share is true or false. That is up to you.

Only you can prove it to yourself. No one else can drink for you. Drink if you are thirsty.
Understanding is the short cut or bird's way. The fastest way to remove the camouflage of ignorance.

Of course one cannot have both.

You cannot pray and worship illusion and therefore cultivate ignorance and at the same time
know the Truth and the Reality. You must pick one! Love for illusion or attachment to the false has to go.

First one must realize the Truth, that spiritual and religious concepts about the Oneness or God are all false.
In fact to look toward spirituality or any religion for Freedom is paradoxically bondage. It all works in reverse.

What ignorant spiritual or religious Seekers do not understand is that
being alive is itself abiding as one's true nature which is simply Life itself or consciousness.

To be alive is to be a so called 'Buddha' if you want a stupid spiritual or religious concept.
Being alive is abiding as that, He, the Self, God or the Reality. Nothing new to anybody.

After all, what effort do you have to make to be. To exist?

Life is the Oneness.
Life is the Omni-presence present in all.

What spiritual or religious about that? Nothing.
Either stupid, dishonest or ignorant people camouflage it to be.

If you believe in Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy than you believe in spirituality.

That is called false imagination or illusion. Believing the false to be true.
Spirituality and all religions only point toward illusion.

The Reality is nothing new, spiritual or religious.
The Reality is what you are naturally.

God is Life. Being alive is being God. 
That is the experience. The experience is being.
Therefore realize that here and now you are that. Being just as you are.

Spirituality and religions will screw you to believe the false to be true while understanding
will instantly Free you from a false notion of being separated from your true nature.

Life itself is the Oneness. One's own affectionate undeniable existence
is the Infinite Self, He, God or the Reality. So simple.

What else did you expect this Reality to be?

Did some self-appointed Guru, Teacher or 'Buddha' sell you water by the River?
Life is one's true nature. That is all. Nothing lost, spiritual or new to be achieved.

What is Life? Natural intelligence or consciousness.
Life is the unseen Power within the body. You are Life.

Understanding is all. Remove ignorance.
Nothing else is required.

You wander restlessly from forest to forest
while the Reality is within your own dwelling.

~ Kabir ~

Did you know that spiritual and religious people that Seek Freedom
are only bound to their acquired spiritual and religious beliefs?

That is the paradox.

There is neither bondage nor is there any liberation.
Bondage and liberation are only psychological.

Ignorant Seekers are only foolishly chasing after spiritual carrots like
an Ass foolishly chasing after a carrot on a stick. They simply do not realize it.

Some people want to strongly believe that they are bound and therefore they will
foolishly spend their whole life Seeking for some fictitious state or experience to call liberation.

Some even want to talk about fictitious spiritual and religious concepts like past lives or future lives,
others about heaven or hell, others about nirvana and spiritual enlightenment, but of course that is all bogus.

All that is required for Freedom is to paradoxically flush all that spiritual and religious crap down the toilet.
That is all that is necessary. Freedom from spirituality and religions is itself Freedom from all bondage.

Spirituality and all religions are paradoxically the poison, not the cure. That is the Joke of it all.
That is the simple Secret spiritual and religious people do not want you to know.

Turning toward any spiritual or religious leader or person for Freedom
is just like turning toward a thief disguised as a policeman to catch a thief.

The Realization is that spirituality and religions are all lies. That is the Open Secret.
There is no bondage and there is no liberation, you already are that Living-ness naturally.

The religious or spiritual concepts of Freedom, Enlightenment, Self-Realization etc, are all false and bondage.
There is no such thing as spiritual or religious liberation. Just some lies or made up ideology for ignorant people
to worship the false or illusion. See the false as false. That is the simple Secret to Freedom, find out who is bound.

Who told you that you were bound? Forget about Freedom and you are Free. Simple as that.
Spiritual Seekers are foolishly only bound to a false idea of being bound. Just this and nothing else.

Remove ignorance only. Understanding what the Reality is truly about is all that is required. It is very simple.
No spiritual God or religious power ever existed. Spiritual and religious people only believe and worship fantasy.

Forget all that spiritual and religious nonsense. It is all B.S. Spirituality and all religions are a trap.
The Reality is self-shining in plain sight as the most common and obvious to all. As one's own being.

Life is God. Life is the absolute Reality that is happening this very moment. Being is the experience.
One's own existence is the natural expression of Life itself or consciousness that some people call God.

There are no spiritual goals to be reached. Nothing new, special or spiritual to be attained.
The experience is always here and now. Are you alive? Are you aware of being present?
That is it. Present awareness is 'I' am. You know that you are alive and you like it.

When you are sick and tired of all the B.S. and looking in vain for something new, special or spiritual,
then you are ready to understand what the Reality is simply all about. It is nothing new, spiritual or special.

Paradoxically it is not what spiritual and religious people want you to believe but only an effortless
recognition of one's true nature to simply be what we all are naturally, right here and now.

No blazing light, nothing new to be discovered or freshly experienced whatsoever.

The Reality is Life itself.

To be alive and aware of being oneself naturally is the experience.
Everybody knows the Reality so well already as 'I' am.

Know Thyself.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

The natural state of being.

Understanding what consciousness is, is itself Freedom. Ignorance is the only false notion of bondage.
Ignorant Seekers will always ask if the Infinite Self is either silence or if it is space. It is neither.
Silence only appears on consciousness and consciousness is subtler than space.

Consciousness or the Self is existence, awareness, being.

Life itself.

The Nature of Life is consciousness.

Therefore to be alive is to abide as that. Just like water and ice.
No one alive is ever apart from their true nature. Consciousness is the core of one's being.

If anyone associates Freedom from all bondage with any religion from East and West, that is bondage.
Freedom has nothing to do with Buddhism, Hindu, Christianity, Judaism, Islam etc.

To turn toward any religion is to turn away from the simple Truth and ending up
foolishly looking toward illusion, the false and ignorance for the Reality.

When everything the spiritual Seeker believes to be true is false. Spiritual and religious people
will never know the simple Truth about Freedom from all bondage and the Infinite Self.

That is the funny paradox!

Freedom is to simply remove the false notion of being bound only.
That is the Secret to Freedom. Find out who is bound?

What is the Self or one's true nature? Awareness.
Is awareness beyond description? Nope!

Consciousness, sentience, cognizance, wakefulness
just some different names for this presence of awareness.
"Being aware" is the presence of unchanging awareness itself.

Like a fish in the water crying that he is thirsty.

Who ever said that to know one's true nature was hard or difficult?
Paradoxically it is so easy. All sentient beings are abiding as awareness itself.

There is nothing you have to do, nothing to become, to attain or achieve for awareness to be.
Awareness or the Self is not something new or spiritual to be discovered but simply what you are.

Understanding that simply "being aware" naturally is this
present awareness AKA the Self is very easy. It is nothing new.
Awareness is everyone's true nature. Therefore how foreign can it be?

Present here and now.

Look at yourself here and now. Aren't you aware?
That is the presence of awareness itself being pointed
to as one's thoughtless true nature, He, the Self, the Reality.

Common to all. The natural state of being and remaining aware all day long is
awareness and that is what the fuss about one's thoughtless true nature is all about.
After all, what remains present if you pause thoughts? Awareness of course! You are that.

Ignorant and dishonest people like to camouflage this present awareness as being something new, special
or spiritual when in fact it is all Natural. The natural state of being aware is the true Self and one's true nature.
Realize that right here and now you aware anyhow. You need not try to be. Being aware is being the Self. So simple.

You are awareness. One's true nature is always there. It would not be one's true nature if it wasn't.
Simply notice or realize that you are aware. That alone is the awareness some call the Self.

What spiritual and religious people have been selling as Truth for millennia are in fact all lies.
One's true nature is nothing new or spiritual, that false notion is ignorance and bondage but only Natural.
That is the Secret to Freedom. What you Seek is paradoxically what you already are and have always been naturally.

Aren't you aware anyhow? Realize that the Self or awareness is what you are this very moment without trying to be.
If you are not dead, asleep or un-conscious, you are aware. Awareness present is being present as oneself.

Ignorant Seekers foolishly believe that awareness is something special or spiritual
that can be transmitted or acquired from others. when in fact simply being aware,
wakeful, sentient or conscious is always abiding as the Self AKA awareness itself.

Being oneself and awareness are One. Discern between illusion and Reality.
Life, consciousness or awareness is nothing spiritual but the natural state of being.

What you need is to be aware of being aware.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

See the false as false.

Did you know that a spiritual state of 'Enlightenment' does not exist?
Just made up religious B.S. only used to entice veiled and ignorant Seekers.

Paradoxically the fictitious concept of spiritual 'Enlightenment' is a trap and bondage.
Obviously self-appointed spiritual Gurus will not tell Seekers that simple fact about the false
concept of spiritual 'Enlightenment' for they need to cultivate illusion to sell water by the River.

The truth is that spiritual 'Enlightenment' is nothing but a spiritual carrot for dummies to chase after.
In fact to turn toward any religion or spirituality for Freedom is to remain bound to illusion.

There is no bondage and of course there is no liberation either. Both are imaginary.
Bondage and liberation do not exist. Everyone alive is always abiding as the Reality.

The Nature of Life.

Life is the Self or God if you like. The nature of Life is one's true nature.
Consciousness is the nature of Life. Consciousness is the substratum of all that exist.

To know the Self, He, God, the Reality etc, is so easy.
Don't look far. Have a look at yourself. Look at your own being.

Consciousness is being. Didn't anyone tell you? It is 'I' am. 
Here and now you are that. Call off the Search. The Seeker is the Sought.

Your own self, your own being or the 'I' is at once yourself and the Infinite Self.
There is no becoming, there is no reaching or attaining anything. There never was.
Simply being alive and aware of being oneself everyday naturally is the experience itself.

Consciousness is naturally self-shining everyday as pure awareness of being. As 'I' am.
Consciousness present is the knowing that you are present or present awareness.

There isn't anyone who does not say 'I' am. That is what 'I' am represents.
The Infinite Self is 'you' are or 'I' am.  Just this and nothing else.

Here and now you are that.
Only the Search for a spiritual Self or holy presence is a trap.

The ultimate Truth about the Infinite Self, He, the Reality or this consciousness itself is so simple.
One can only laugh at the joke of it all. After all, what else did anyone Seeking it expected the infinite Self to be?

At one stage you will laugh at yourself for trying to discover the Self.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Life is the Self. Consciousness is indeed present. To be alive and aware is 'I' am.
Life or consciousness is everyone's true nature and the Oneness.

You already are what you Seek. Gee you are you.
Nothing new under the Sun. Thou art that. Tat Tvam Asi.

Of course if you have spent year after year foolishly striving to become
'Enlightened' or 'Realized',  you are going be very disappointed. There is no such thing.

To be alive is to abiding as this consciousness or existence that everyone knows so well as 'I' am.
One's own existence is the Divine. The Self, He, the Reality is not something special or spiritual but natural.

That is the Open Secret to Freedom.

Paradoxically veiled spiritual Seekers will spend years looking for something new,
some spiritual presence or state to be reached, to be attained or acquired.
Always foolishly looking away from the Reality.

You are Life. Here and now you are. Being alive and aware of being is the experience itself.
Alive-ness, living-ness, being-ness is this presence of consciousness self-shining in plain sight.
That is what the Infinite Self, He, the Reality or so called God simply is. Just this and nothing else.

Who am 'I'? What is 'I'? Self-Realization.
Know thyself. Realize that the 'I' or 'you' are that.

Nothing was ever lost therefore you gain nothing new.
When have you ever lost yourself? Hellooo! 'I' am is always with you.

'I' am represents at once being oneself and that presence of consciousness.
The 'I' is that or Self. Know that 'I' exist or 'I' am alive is that presence of consciousness.

After all, 'I' am is certain. No one denies being. It is one's own affectionate being or existence.
What you Seek is what you are. Our true nature is Life, existence, consciousness. Nothing or special.

The Search for something new, spiritual or special is a trap. The Reality is you are Life.

"'I' am that" means 'I' am Life or the 'I' or one's own self is this consciousness itself. So simple.
To be alive and wakeful, sentient or aware naturally everyday is the experience.

That is what being the Self is all about.
All about the natural state of being. That is the Secret.

Remove ignorance. Freedom is not the acquisition of anything new, special or spiritual.
All that is required for Freedom from all bondage is to simply get to know one's true nature.
Obviously one's true nature is nothing new or far away but present closer than close to oneself.

What is one's true nature? Life. The natural state of being.
Being alive is always abiding as one's true nature.

You are what you are right now. Life itself.

Your true nature or Life is expressing itself naturally as yourself.
Just like a finger that points at the moon. Life or existence is the Reality.

What effort do you have to make to be? No time or effort is required.

There are no rewards at the end of the stick. There is no spiritual goal to be reached.
Only spiritual and religious people made some up to feel better about themselves.

Forget all that non-sense.

Consciousness or existence is the Reality or Self that is being pointed as one's true nature.
Existence is being. Nothing new to anyone. Another name for existence or consciousness is Life itself.

Life is the natural presence of intelligence and power self-shining as all sentient beings.
Life is the Oneness. Therefore to be alive is to be this Oneness, Living-ness or consciousness.

Obviously to recognize one's true nature present is very easy.
After all, what is more obvious to oneself than one's own existence?

To recognize one's true nature present with simple pointers is paradoxically child-like simplicity.
Nothing new is to be acquired. Nothing spiritual or special is to be discovered or experienced.

There is no becoming anything new or different. There is no blazing light, no end of suffering or nirvana etc.
To recognize one's true nature is to simply realize or understand consciousness itself to simply be existence.

Knowing the Self (consciousness) is being the Self, and being means existence,
one’s own existence. No one denies one’s own existence.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

No one is ever apart from one's true nature. Consciousness is the core of one's being.
One's own existence is this presence of consciousness that we call Life.
To be alive is to abide as that. Here and now you are that.

Consciousness is the natural presence of awareness
that is experienced directly by everyone alive as pure changeless being.
As with water and ice, you know that you are because you are aware of being.

Consciousness present or Life present is 'I' am.
It is pure awareness of being.

It is pure awareness of being. It is that 'I' am you know so well.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

The Infinite Self is one's own self. One's own being.
To be aware of being is the knowing that you are alive or 'I' am.
Awareness is synonymous with being. The 'I' and awareness are One.

When I am talking about the Infinite Self, I am not talking about some fictitious spiritual presence.
I am simply talking about the natural presence of Life or existence present within everybody.

Again and again. Common to all, the Lord or God is simply Life itself.
Nothing new, special, religious or spiritual. It is pure being.
No separation or duality. One's own self is the Self.

Know yourself.

Awareness is another name for 'you'.
The Search for wholeness is simply the Search for oneself.
Self-discovery is when you realize that being oneself is being awareness.

You, always being the Self or awareness itself cannot become or attain
the Self or awareness. You are already that. Look at yourself. Thou art that.

To be aware is to be oneself. To be oneself is to be aware.
Both are one and the same presence. Being aware is the knowing that you are.
To understand this, is to remove the veil of ignorance camouflaging one's true nature.

The Sought-after Truth is not acquired from some person, some place or
some thing outside oneself believing it to be holy, but naturally self-shining as Life itself.

Some people point to a God hidden in the Sky or some presence from above, but that is not true.
Ouch! Truth hurts! Life, existence, sentience, awareness is simply being oneself or 'I' am.

To know God is easy. Know yourself. Here and now you are that.
Look at your own being. Look at your own existence. 'I' am that 'I' am.

You are the knowing that you are.
One cannot deny one's own self. 'I' am needs no proof.

Your body is Life's Temple. Life is God. That is what God truly is, Life itself.
The Reality within your own dwelling is present as consciousness or existence. It is 'I' am.

That is the Open Secret to Freedom or so called Self-Realization Shining in plain Sight!

Who is not aware of himself? One cannot deny being and say there is no one or 'I' am not.
Being alive and aware of being. Awareness of being is abiding as one's true nature.

You are ego-less, form-less, conscious-ness.

Meaning that there is no ego or anything else present as oneself other than the Self.
You already are at the destination you have paradoxically never left. The Self or the One-ness is 'you'.

Who speaks? Consciousness speaks. Who sees? Consciousness sees. Who hears? Consciousness hears.
Who thinks? Consciousness thinks. Consciousness is being oneself, being aware is abiding as one's true nature.

Self-Realization is simply realizing that there is no separation whatsoever from one's true nature at any time.
It is realizing, understanding or recognizing that being oneself is being the One Self. Thou art that. Rejoice!

Any concept of being a separate individual self is only fiction or illusory. You are the One without two.
No one can become Free because no one was ever bound. One's own affectionate everyday self is already the Self.

Spiritual Seekers are kept on a path when they are told to go behind a mind or to kill an ego.
After all, why would anyone strive to kill a so called ego that never existed in the first place? Isn't it foolish?
You are already behind the so called mind as well. What mind is there? look for it and it will not be found anywhere.

Paradoxically ignorant people will label consciousness as 'mind' and
therefore will create a false notion of duality that is only due to ignorance.

Investigate for yourself what is Real. Fiction, myths or Truth and Reality.
The false cannot stand up to investigation. Remove the veil of ignorance that is
camouflaging this simple Truth about your own self. You are pure consciousness itself.

You are what you Seek without trying to be. There is no separation from one's true nature.
There never was anything else present with oneself as oneself, but consciousness itself.

Call off the Search. There are no spiritual rewards, no happy place to get to,
special faculties or anything new to be freshly acquired or cultivated.

Life, existence or consciousness is the Reality.
Not some spiritual or religious fantasy.

Who is bound? If you want to be Free from a false notion of separation and duality. Remove ignorance.
Understand that which is being pointed to as your true nature is present as awareness.

What is awareness? You!
Gee! yoU aRe yoU.

The Search starts and ends with you.

Seeing is being aware. Hearing is being aware.
Knowing is being aware etc. Being aware is awareness and the Self.

Cognizance is awareness. Sentience is awareness and that is what the Self is.
One's real nature is always undeniably present with oneself as awareness itself.

You are awareness. Awareness is another name for simply being you.
Awareness is what you are right now. Being aware is awareness or the Self.
The Self is not some special or spiritual presence but pure changeless being.

Awareness is nothing new. Thou art that.
The state we call 'Realization' is simply being oneself.

No one becomes or attains some special or spiritual presence of awareness.
Being awake from sleep is being aware and the present awareness itself we call the Self.

People have made up stories and created religions simply to entice Seekers by making them
foolishly believe the false to be true. Self-appointed Gurus are only selling water by the River.

There has never been any new, special, spiritual or extra-ordinary Self or presence to become.
Just plain ordinary everyday present awareness is abiding as one's true nature. A funny paradox.

Here and now 'you' are that.

Being just as you are. You and awareness are One. Awareness is 'you'.
Awareness is synonymous with one's own affectionate self, being or existence.

No separation, no duality. One's own self is the Self or this awareness itself.
Awareness is the most ordinary presence or being-ness common to everyone.

Here and now you are aware. You do not have to kick start awareness.
Take a look at your real self. Aren't you aware right here and now? That is IT.
The Self that was never lost is what you already are and have always been naturally.

Everyone alive and awake from sleep always abides as unchanging awareness.
No one is ever apart from their true nature or the Self which is awareness.
They are always looking away from it, they simply do not realize it.

Realize that being aware is being yourself and the Infinite Self.
Awareness is sentience and that is everyone's true nature.

If you ever wondered what is the Self or this present awareness that
is always pointed to as one's true nature by the wise. That is it.
Being aware is the Self. Just this and nothing else.

Awareness is nothing new or apart from you.
What you Seek is what you are this very moment.

Realize that you are aware.
Being aware is abiding as that.

You are awareness.

You are that.

lotus_red4.jpg (1041 bytes)

The One without two is you.
Consciousness is one's true nature.

Always experienced directly by everyone alive as ordinary existence, as sentience or awareness.
Consciousness cannot be objectified simply because being oneself is abiding as this consciousness itself.

There are no two selves. Being oneself is abiding as that. Consciousness is you are.
Therefore it is impossible to see consciousness when consciousness is the Seer.
In other words how can you kiss yourself on your own lips?

To Seek consciousness as anything new or different is to always look away from it.
To know consciousness do not look far. Have a look at your own self.

Consciousness is the natural state of being common to everybody.
Get to know your real nature to be consciousness. Nothing new.

It is nothing new to anyone alive but paradoxically
what we always are and have been been.

Here and now you are that.

Consciousness present is the natural activity of Life.

No-thing. Consciousness is not a thing or an object to be seen.
It is very important to realize that no-thing does not mean nothing.
Consciousness is the natural and effortless activity of being conscious.

Consciousness is sentience, cognizance, awareness, being-ness and existence. It is 'I' am.
Because consciousness is always primary. It cannot be objectified but also cannot be denied.

True consciousness is not an object or a thing but the subject. It is not what you can see but the Seer.
Not what you can hear but the hearer. Not what you can know but the knower etc. The witness of all things.

Consciousness is the seeing, perceiving, cognizing or knowing presence that is present with all sentient beings.
The activity of knowing. Sentience, cognizance or awareness are synonymous with abiding as one's true nature.

So familiar to all.

Everyone knows this pure consciousness so well already as their own affectionate being, as 'I' am.
You are that. The Self or consciousness is 'I' am. Nothing new or apart from you but truly yourself.

After all, who is always present with oneself to be aware of this and that? 'I' am of course!
Who else could 'I' am be and truly represent in Omni-presence but this Oneness or consciousness itself.

All there is ever present with oneself has always been consciousness. Just this and nothing else.
Know Thyself. Know the simple Truth! That the 'I' is not a finite self or independent separate entity.

Due to ignorance some people falsely believe that the 'I' represents a finite self limited to the body, but that
is not true. That wrong knowledge must go and that is the so called Self-Realization. Know that the 'I' is that.

All there is to realize is that in Omni-presence or Oneness there is no room for anything else to exist
but consciousness itself. Therefore everyone is already that. Consciousness is everyone's true nature.

Paradoxically the Search for something new, something special or different to call the Reality is a trap.

Consciousness is very easily recognized to be present as awareness. Realize that you are and remain aware.
Being awake or aware is the natural activity of consciousness. Sentience is another name for one's true nature.

Awareness is nothing new. Nobody can become, reach or attain what they already are. It is impossible.
The effort alone is foolishness and bondage. Being aware is awareness itself and what you are right now.

You are aware. Since you are already aware or present as awareness itself this very moment,
there is no need to try to become awareness, practice awareness or cultivate it.
Just realize that being aware is in fact what you always are naturally.

Remove all the spiritual and religious concepts falsely attached to this consciousness,
the Self or awareness, and what you are left with is simply the natural state of being.

I am no Guru, no Teacher or Buddha. I am not an Enlightened being or Master.
I am just an ordinary guy that understood that simply being oneself is being the Self.
The final conclusion comes with the realization that the Seeker is paradoxically the Sought.

The recognition of one's unchanging true nature is not a spiritual experience or a flash of light.
Just an ordinary recognition to what is already present and have always been naturally our whole life.

To know one's thoughtless true nature is very easy.
All that is required is to pause thoughts for a few moments.

What remains present and shining naturally if you pause thoughts? Awareness itself.
Seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling. Isn't there an undeniable awareness of being present as oneself?
Being and remaining aware is awareness. One's true nature is just that, present as unchanging awareness itself.

So near and so dear. It is at once the activity of cognizing and knowing that you are.
It is pure awareness of being. It is that 'I' am you know so well as your own self.

You and awareness are One and the same presence.
Awareness is just another name for 'you'.

Like a Fish in the Ocean Searching for the Ocean.

Why should anyone meditate and strive to reach, to become or attain
what they already are naturally everyday? Isn't it foolish! A strange paradox.
Everyone alive is always abiding as their true nature, Seekers simply do not know it.

Ignorant people foolishly believe that consciousness or one's true nature
cannot be described, pointed to or understood. But that is all wrong acquired knowledge.
The best description and definition for consciousness AKA the Self or one's true nature is the natural state.

The natural state.

The misleading conception that consciousness is a spiritual state or a religious state that is yet
to be reached or attained with time, practice and effort is only a myth, pure fiction and itself bondage.

Consciousness is already undeniably present with oneself as oneself. It is not something to be reached or attained.
There is no reaching, no attaining or becoming anything new, spiritual or special for the Reality to be.
Some people will wait for something spiritual to happen and call that experience the Reality.

That is all wrong knowledge acquired from books and self-appointed Gurus.
Bound to believe the impermanent, the transient or the false to be true.

No experience will ever be the Reality.

Simply because whatever can be gained will also be lost.
Being oneself is already being the Self or this consciousness itself.
No spiritual or religious Self ever existed. Bondage and liberation do not exist.

What is Real?

Spirituality and all religions are the poison, not the cure. What spirituality and religions are pointing to is not true.
People Seeking the Self are bound to ignorance only or false acquired spiritual and religious knowledge.

Being oneself. Many have no idea that simply being alive and aware of being oneself everyday is always abiding as
one's true nature AKA the Self or consciousness. All along self-shining in plain sight as one's own self, as 'I' am.

'I' am that 'I' am.

Everybody knows 'I' am.

Can anyone alive deny or negate one's own self, one's own existence, one's own being?

While some ignorant people believe there is no one present the wise will point to oneself as being the One Self.
Know that 'I' exist or 'I' am is at once awareness of being common to all and this self-shining consciousness itself.

'I' exist or 'I' am is that. You gain nothing because you lost nothing.
Nothing new is to be acquired. Be content with being alive and aware of being.

Be content with what you are sure of. And the only thing you can be sure of is 'I' am.
The only fact you are sure of is that you are. The only clue you have is your certainty of being.
~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

*

Consciousness is indeed always with us.
Everybody knows 'I' am. No one can deny his own being.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

To simply be alive, to exist naturally is the Reality. That is what this consciousness truly is, it is Life itself.
No one sane can deny one's own existence and claim 'I' am not or 'I' do not exist.
One's own self, being or existence is that consciousness or the Self.

To be or not to be. 'I' am or 'I' am not?
The only fact you are absolutely sure of, is that you are.

In no circumstance can this consciousness be denied. One cannot deny one's own self.
Consciousness is 'I' am. One's existence is always certain. Consciousness is therefore present.

Know thyself. That is what so called Self-Realization is about.
Knowing that the 'I' or one's own self is that consciousness itself.

Call this consciousness God or Life. Both are one and the same. Realize that is the Oneness.
All sentient beings are the Self or this natural presence of consciousness that we call Life.

Living-ness is consciousness. Consciousness is not some mystical presence
but the natural undeniable presence of existence that we all like to be.

The Self, Reality or this consciousness is not something new, special or spiritual to become,
it is simply what we truly are. Our true nature is Life. Consciousness is just another name for Life.

Realize that being alive is being the Self. That is the Secret. Everyone is Life in nature living itself naturally.
No one lives Life. Life is living itself as every one. Everyone is being lived by Life which is one's true nature.

Living itself naturally. Life or consciousness is the real doer or the Reality.
Consciousness is the Reality present within your own dwelling that we call Life.

It is beating your heart right now, digesting your food, growing your hair and finger nails.
Life is this natural presence of consciousness itself and you are that. It is nothing new to anybody.

Understand that simply being alive and aware of being oneself naturally is being the Self.
One's true nature is always present with oneself as Life itself and self-shining naturally.
That is what 'I' am represent. 'I' am represent being oneself and this consciousness.

Who ever told you that you are not the Self, He, the Reality and Free already lied to you.
Many self-appointed Gurus will entice and confuse Seekers to believe that they are bound.
Many Seekers are told to do something to become Free, but that wrong knowledge is bondage.

Realize that there is no bondage, there is no separation, there is no liberation.
Being is the experience itself. Consciousness is nothing new or something apart from you.

Consciousness is always undeniably present with oneself as oneself, because it is so near and so dear or present
as pure changeless being it is simply overlooked. So common, so plain and so ordinary is everyone's true nature.

Know the Truth! The Self or one's true nature is nothing special or spiritual. It never was.
That is the Secret camouflaging the simple Truth about one's true nature.

Consciousness or the Self is what we all are naturally.

The fact is that consciousness is simply the natural state of being.
Nothing new. Being conscious is at once being this consciousness and being oneself.
Consciousness is being or existence. We call that undeniable living-ness or consciousness Life.

Seeking any spiritual, religious or special Self is a trap. There is no spiritual presence to call the Reality or the Self.
Understanding what is pointed to as one's true nature is all that is required to end the Search for wholeness.

During the waking state one's true nature or consciousness shines effortlessly as unchanging awareness.
To be awake, sentient, cognizant and aware of being oneself is the Reality or this consciousness itself.

To know one's true nature is very easy. Consciousness is the knowing that you are
Consciousness is that 'I' exist or that 'I' am you know so well.

You are the knowing that you are. One cannot deny one's own self.  'I' exist or 'I' am is certain.
Present awareness or awareness of being present. No one can say there is no one present or 'I' am not.

The experience is here and now. One cannot deny one’s own self.
Existence is the same as happiness and happiness is the same as being.
Why should one seek it?

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

One's own existence is this consciousness itself.
There is nothing more to realize. Existence is being the Self.

If you have been Seeking this consciousness we call the Self for a long time when wisdom
points that consciousness is present here and now, then you have been looking for something else but that.
Consciousness is not found because it was never lost. Aren't aware right now? That is what the Self simply is.

There is nothing to practice. Nothing to worship or pray to. There are no spiritual goals to be reached.
You are that which you Seek to know. The Search for a spiritual Self or presence is a trap.

Thou art that. Consciousness is just another name for the plain ordinary 'you'.
Being oneself naturally is abiding as this consciousness itself.

There is no consciousness and you. You are IT.
Being oneself is being IT.

You cannot become what you already are. It is impossible.
To look for some fantasy or some spiritual presence to call the Reality alone is bondage.
The Self is simply being one's own self. It is what you already and have always been naturally your whole Life.

Look at yourself. You know that you are. You know that you exist and you like it.
No one can deny being or existing because that alone is the absolute Reality.
One's own existence is this presence of consciousness itself we call Life.

No one can deny being or 'I' am. One's own existence needs no proof.
That is what He, the Self or the Reality truly is, Life itself.

The natural state of being alive is abiding as that.

Call off the Search. Here and now you are that. To be is the Self.
To be alive and aware of being oneself is the natural state of being common to all.
There never has been a spiritual or religious Self or any special states to be reached or attained.

Life is what is truly happening here and now. The true Beloved.
You know that you are. That is the Reality. Being is the Self.
What are you waiting for when it is here and now?
Look at yourself and you have found it.

What have you to wait for when it is already here and now?
You have to only look & see. Look at yourself, at your own being.

You know that you are and you like it. Abandon all imagining, that is all.
Do not rely on time, time is death, who waits dies. Life is now only!

~ Nisargadatta Maharaj ~

Look for your chains. Striving to become liberated is paradoxically bondage.
Will the so called Realization bring up true Love, Peace, happiness and the end of suffering? Nope!

That is all wrong acquired knowledge only used by self-appointed Gurus as spiritual carrots.
Before Enlightenment I suffer. After Enlightenment I suffer. Same all, same all. Nothing changes.

If you are mislead to believe that to recognize one's true nature will take away suffering, that is a lie.

Life is just as it is.

As long as there is a body present then one must feel pain.
Unless you want to rent a gun and buy a bullet there is no escape from that.

What about psychological suffering? Same. The all range of emotion is expressed and experienced the same.
The only difference is that it is understood to simply be a movement of consciousness on consciousness, that is all.

Omni-presence. When all there is present is always consciousness itself, nothing is wrong anymore.
Remove ignorance. Forget about spiritual and religious beliefs or carrots used to entice Seekers.

Before chop wood and carry water. After chop wood and carry water. Same, same.
Nothing changes. Only ignorance is removed. That is all Freedom is simply all about.

Understanding what this consciousness simply is, is all that is required.
Of course spiritual Seekers and religious believers do not want no-thing.

They expect a reward at the end of their endless Seeking.
But the fact is that there is no reward. Zip, zero.

Just like they imagine there is bondage,
they only imagine that there is.

Seekers have been brainwashed to foolishly believe
that they will reached, attain or become something special or spiritual
if they meditate or do that practice or worship this dude or that Guru etc. Oops.

All one will truly gain for Freedom is understanding. That is all.
Wisdom is Freedom. Only the veil of ignorance is removed.

You are the One.

Some people are falsely told that there is no one or that they do not exist
when in fact they are the One and existence itself. Thou art that.

While ignorant people falsely believe that there is no one.
The wise will only say what I am saying now. You are the One.

'I' am is at once one's own existence and the Infinite Self.
'I' am is that. The 'I' is not different from the one-ness.

One's own self is the Infinite Self or the One Self.
Being oneself is being the Self or the Real-'I'-ty.

You are the One without two.
How can you kiss yourself.

One cannot deny one's own self.
The 'I' cannot see itself nor can it be denied.

One's own self and plain ordinary existence is itself the Divine.
Being alive and aware of being oneself is at once being oneself and the One Self.

What does one get from that realization? Nothing. Just ending the Search for the Self that was never lost.
You already are at the destination you have never left, you simply did not know it. Ignorance is the only culprit.

Instead of looking for something new, simply get to know you!
Only because you already are what you Seek to know. That is the Open Secret.

Like a fish in the water foolishly crying that he is thirsty. Nothing was ever lost or missing.
You are already whole. You simply do not realize it. Only a false notion of separation is bondage.

Understanding what this consciousness some call the Self simply is,
is the end of the Search for wholeness and Freedom from all bondage.

When you understand what this consciousness truly is, the false notion of bondage and
that of liberation dissolves. Freedom is simply when you finally get that there is nothing new to get.

Consciousness or the Infinite Self is paradoxically nothing new or spiritual but the natural state of being.
That is what the Oneness truly is, Life, existence, consciousness, being. It is that 'I' am you know so well already.

Know the Truth about 'you' and that alone sets your Free.
Ignorance is the only obstacle to be removed with understanding.

That is all that needs to be done.

After all, this consciousness is not a mystical spiritual state to be reached or something new
to be freshly acquired but simply the natural state of being common to everybody.
Everyone alive is always the Self. He or that consciousness is simply Life itself.

Get to know your real self.

Forget the dying body and recognize that you are the living-ness or conscious-ness shining within the body.

Just like a finger pointing at the moon or a sign on the road that is pointing toward a final destination,
all I can do for anyone earnest to know their true nature or real self is simply
point to sentience or ordinary consciousness to be one's true nature.

That is what was simply pointed out to me as my true nature and now I am pointing it out to you.
I am just a pointer. That is all. Nothing else. I cannot give you anything which you do not have already.

The false notion and wrong knowledge that the Self or this presence of consciousness 
is in anyway something new, something special or spiritual is the only obstacle.

That false notion is called ignorance.

Acquired spiritual and religious knowledge is paradoxically the greatest ignorance.

The wise will only say what I am saying now.

Any spiritual or religious concepts acquired from spiritual and religious people and books
about the Self or God are all false. Consciousness is God. Life is God. Being alive is abiding as that.

What spiritual and religious people 'believe' to be true is in fact illusion. A paradox. The Reality or God is you are.
Consciousness is one's true nature and this consciousness is nothing different but simple changeless being.

Simple changeless being is one's true nature.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

So common to everyone alive.

Consciousness is the natural state of being. It is 'I' am.
To be conscious, to be aware, to be sentient is to be the Self. That is IT.
Consciousness is at once the cognizing presence and the knowing that you are.

You are that. You are He. You are the Self. Realize that there is no you and consciousness.
You are consciousness itself. It is your real nature. There is no separation from one's true nature.

How can you kiss yourself on your own lips?

You cannot become consciousness or the Self because you are already it this very moment.
People overlook the most plain and ordinary while they are busing looking for the fresh and new.

Consciousness is always present. Waking, sleeping, dreaming and after the death of the body,
consciousness remains the same eternally. It is the imperishable Self, ever-present.

Consciousness is the Creator and governor of all things that exist.

Just like a light bulb cannot shine of itself or without the Power.
Consciousness is the undeniable Living-ness or Power
that is present within the body that we call Life.

That is the Open Secret.

Spiritual and religious people will talk and write books about some concept of God.
Yet they paradoxically have no clue whatsoever what God or the Reality truly is.

What is the Reality the word 'God' truly represent?

Consciousness, Life, existence.

Life is this presence of consciousness itself that we call God or the Infinite Self.
Therefore to realize that being alive is abiding as this consciousness itself is knowing the Truth.
Understanding that Life or consciousness is in fact one's true nature is all that is necessary to remove ignorance.

That which is eternal is not known to be so because of ignorance. Ignorance is the obstruction.
Get over this ignorance and all will be well.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

There is no becoming the Self.
Being oneself naturally is always being the Self. That is all.
Life is just another name for consciousness. The Self is just another name for Life.

Ignorance is the only obstacle.
That is all there is to be removed with understanding for Freedom.
Ignorant people do not realize that being alive is being the Self. That is what the Self is.

What you Seek to find is paradoxically what you already are. Nothing is lost or missing.
There is no becoming some spiritual presence or achieving some religious state of consciousness.

Simply understanding what this consciousness truly is, is all that is required for Freedom from all bondage.
Hidden in plain Sight! Consciousness is Life. Paradoxically Life itself is the eternal Self. Nothing new or spiritual.

Life or consciousness does not know death.

Just like a mirror it is never touched by appearances.
The essence of Life remains the same. Patterns will form and must
eventually disappear but pure consciousness itself always remains untouched.

Just like all waves rise, move and collapse back into the Ocean, the essence of the wave is never touched.

That is basically what Freedom from all bondage is all about. Knowing that Life or consciousness is the immortal self.
Knowing this only. All that so called Self-Realization brings up to light is that simple understanding. That is all.
You lost nothing and you gain nothing new or spiritual. You simply remove ignorance with Wisdom.

Only remove ignorance.
That is all there is to be done.

~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Consciousness is what we all are naturally. It is our very nature. It is not to be reached, attained or cultivated.
We can only recognize our true nature present during the waking state or sentient state or aware state.
That it is recognized or not, we are always abiding as that consciousness itself no matter what.

To look for consciousness as something new or special is foolishness and ignorance.

Paradoxically it is wise to recognize that which always is present with oneself naturally as being
one's true nature instead of wasting one's life foolishly Seeking to acquire something new.

Whatever can be freshly acquired will eventually be lost.
Therefore why should anyone Seek the impermanent?

So near and so dear. Consciousness is already here. Call off the Search.
It is not something new to be freshly acquired or achieved.
It is just overlooked until it is pointed to directly.

To be or not to be.

Everyone alive always abides as consciousness.
No one can ever be apart from their own existence.
Being and consciousness are synonymous with the Reality.

Reality is at once being and consciousness.
~ Ramana Maharshi ~

Remove the veil of ignorance camouflaging that plain, common and ordinary
affectionate presence of consciousness some call the Self, He or the Reality and that others call God.
It is surprisingly very easy to understand what is being pointed to. After all, consciousness is one's true nature.

What is consciousness? Simply the presence of awareness that we all experience directly as ordinary wakeful-ness.
To be wakeful, conscious or aware is to abide as one's true nature. Awareness is the natural activity of Life
or the undeniably presence of consciousness itself. 'I' am is that presence of consciousness and being.

The natural state of being.
One's true nature is in fact very ordinary and natural.
No one alive is ever apart from consciousness. No one alive can deny being.

Self-awareness is consciousness itself. Awareness of being oneself is at once consciousness and the 'I'.
Being oneself is always abiding as this consciousness itself. There is nothing more to be realized.

The Secret to Freedom is that to be alive and conscious or aware of being is to abide as the Self, He, the Reality.
To understand this simple Truth is to know oneself to be this present awareness or consciousness that we call Life.

Like water and ice. There is no Life without consciousness present.
Consciousness is the core of one's being or one's existence.

Existence and consciousness are One and the same.

While some will call this consciousness God, Self or that.
I like to call it what it simply is, it is Life itself.

For whoever seeks God in some special way, will gain the way and lose God who is hidden in the way.
But whoever seeks God without any special way, finds Him as He really is...
He is Life itself.

~ Meister Eckhart ~

Why Seek the special and the extra-ordinary
when the Reality is the most plain, common and ordinary?

It is all a contradiction or a paradox.
When you look for it you are only looking away from it.

So called Self-Realization is to recognize that being oneself is being the Self.
Consciousness is the very nature of Life or existence. The substratum or the un-manifest.
To understand what this consciousness is, is very easy. Yet most Seekers do not want it to be easy.

It is just another strange paradox.

If you are open to simplicity, you will be surprised to discover that the Self or the Reality is nothing new,
but in fact simply what you already are and have always been your whole life naturally.

No one wise ever said that Freedom was the acquisition of anything new or special.
Freedom is simply removing the veil of ignorance with understanding.

That is what so called Realization is truly all about. Just this.

Understanding is Realizing.
