and fables ~
Q: Is it true that aboriginal people having only 44
chromosomes instead of having
46 like other people, that is what pseudo spiritual people pretending to be all knowing in
science claim to be a fact?
You must be referring to Drunvalo and his loony
followers. It is NOT true. That is a bunch of crap given to idiots to swallow, Australian
Aborigines have 44+2 for a total of 46 chromosomes. If they had 44 chromosomes they would
be retards like the spiritual Teachers making that stupid ignorant claim are or liars
pretending to speak fact or truth for a buck. Wake up.
The false cannot stand up to investigation. DNA mapping
has proven that Aborigines people originally came from modern humans in Africa 50,000
years ago or so and migrated toward new guinea and Australia etc. They are humans like all
of us. Same pattern and are classified under the modern human category.
Nothing new, different or special. Same species looking
different and yet very similar to their ancient African ancestors.
Q: Do thoughts create our Reality?
Thoughts will perhaps come up as the idea of building a
home but they will not build the home for you.
Thoughts do not create anything, they have no power to do or create anything, they
are just smoke.
Thoughts are just ideas that arise from consciousness and
translates them into thoughts.
Consciousness alone is what creates and governs all Life because it is Life itself.
Thoughts will come up as ideas, they are just the expression of Life or
consciousness.
Thoughts are just a natural product of Life. Thinking is only while being alive and
conscious.
Thoughts themselves are not the actuality or the Reality.
Look at thoughts as being translators and labelers or what you see and experience.
The thought I see, cannot see. The thought I hear cannot
hear. The thought I am aware is not
awareness. All a thought can do is to simply translate what is or symbolize and
communicate intelligence or ideas.
In Omni-presence all thoughts are also consciousness in
nature just like with water and ice,
it is all the exact same presence of existence expressing itself naturally. Nothing
wrong with thinking..
There is no individual doer or ego or personal thinker.
Consciousness is all there is present.
Thoughts are created by consciousness and experienced by consciousness itself.
Consciousness alone is the doer and the thinker present as oneself.
All thoughts arise from consciousness and disappear on consciousness.
Just like all waves that arise on the surface of the
Ocean are nothing other than Ocean in nature,
just like that movement of energy on the Ocean is natural, a movement of
consciousness on consciousness is what thinking simply is, we call it Life.
Thoughts are just the natural expression of Life itself.
You cannot stop thoughts or control them. They are what
is.
They do what they do, the come and they go. Transient. That is their nature.
To foolishly strive to change or alter thinking is the
only root cause of all psychological suffering.
Water must run. Human dis-ease is to strive to stop thinking. To stop
thoughts and seeking stillness
or to keep quiet mentally is to simply fight Life itself and guess what, you cannot
win.
Spiritual and religious people have been fighting
thoughts and themselves foolishly for millennia,
only because spirituality is pure ignorance camouflaged as wisdom and they have not
understood
that all thoughts are nothing other than the natural expression of Life.
Funny isn't it.
Why foolishly give credit and seemingly power to smoke?
Thoughts have no power.
They are just translating Life, consciousness or the
movement of pure intelligence to itself
and to able oneself to share and communicate ideas and language with others.
That is what thoughts do. Translate. Nothing
else.
Ignorant people like supersticious people fear thoughts because they do not
understand and therefore
foolishly give them power. It is all illusion. Understand that thoughts are the
natural expression
of Life itself. Nothing wrong with thinking.
Just like the passing clouds on the unchanging Sky. No thought is attached
to the Sky.
Let thoughts come and let thoughts go. Why not! Leave them be and do what
they do naturally.
Thinking is in the actuality of the present moment.
When else can you be involved with thought but always presently?
The actuality of being alive and thinking is always Now.
Even thinking of past or future is always Now.
There is no other time to think but the present. Life
is Now only.
The present moment is the only moment of existence and the only moment of thinking.
Thinking is always presently while one is alive. Dead people do not think. No brain,
no thoughts.
Thinking is being. What else would it be? Consciousness present is also
the natural activity of thinking.
Being conscious is the activity of being aware of all thoughts that arise on
consciousness.
Consciousness present is simply being alive and conscious and that present awareness
is also
synonymous with the natural activity of thinking. Present awareness is
when thoughts are shining
naturally. Unconscious or in a coma there are no thoughts arising and no self-shining
present awareness to cognize them.
How many thoughts can one be aware of, if they are
unconscious or in a coma?
One must be conscious first and foremost. Present awareness.
Awareness present is being conscious.
All thoughts arise on consciousness and are only cognized by consciousness.
Anyone that tell you there is something wrong with
thinking is lying.
It is all the same. Forget about spiritual and religious mambo jambo.
Spirituality and all religions are always against what is purely natural. They
are products of stupidity.
A paradox. There is no peace to be found by stopping or seeking mental stillness.
It works in reverse.
The natural intelligence shining naturally as the natural state of being alive
and sentient is also present and shining as thinking. Understand that thoughts are
not the enemy or something to get rid of. They are simply the natural expression of
being.
It is natural for any kind of thoughts to arise when you
are sentient or aware. It is all part of Life.
If you foolishly adopt a religion and become spiritual and start a battle with all
thoughts that arise
and thinking in general, seeking peace, you will become miserable for the rest of
your natural life.
Depression and psychological suffering will plague you
like a disease. That is guarantee.
Resistance to any thoughts meaning the good, the bad and the ugly or thinking in
general
is the only disease plaguing man kind.
Ignorant spiritual and religious people always strive and
want to change or alter their thoughts
only because they fear and foolishly give superstitious imaginary powers to their
passing
or transient thoughts. They picked that spiritual crap up from spiritual
books
or from others pretending to be spiritual, religious and holy.
So if you ever hear someone loony aka spiritual telling
you that an ego or demonic self is manipulating
your thoughts like being possessed by the Devil, you are only buying into an stupid
religious idiot
and into their spiritual ignorance and delusion. There is no ego present
or any other
independent power and thinker. All there is ever-present is consciousness.
The One without two. Consciousness is the Oneness Omni-present and that alone is what
is expressing
itself as Life and governing all your thoughts, they are and always have been just
another part
of being alive. Thinking is natural, spiritual crap is the trap.
All spiritual and religious concepts people have acquired
from spiritual
and religious books and others about thoughts are the poison, not the cure.
Spiritual and religious acquired knowledge is
paradoxically the greatest ignorance.
Q: Where does the false notion of separation originate from?
The false notion of separation and duality truly
originates
from spiritual and religious conditioning and social programming.
In fact main stream religions take hold of children at a
very young age.
That is where the programming and false notion of 'God and me' is
infused and is for most people religiously cultivated until they die.
In reality there is no religious God and no spiritual
Self or presence.
All religions and spirituality are only cultivating illusion and fantasy.
See the false as false. All that anyone has ever acquired
from spiritual or religious people
and books have become their personal set of beliefs and reference point to
what is real.
Attachments to religious concepts or beliefs are very
strong
for spiritual and religious followers, worshippers and believers.
If everyone 'believes' in God and you say, God is not. They will go up in arms when
they hear
the simple Truth because it goes against their acquired religious beliefs they hold
on to so dearly.
Yet no one is born religious or spiritual, that is only
an acquired set of
beliefs or psychological conditioning which is acquired from parents, religious books
and others.
Take for example a very young child that is born of a Jewish family and is right away
adopted by a practicing Muslim family, over time that child 'believes' to be or have
become
a practicing, worshipping devoted Muslim.
Religions are illusion. Man made. Religions are just man
creation of rules to control
and subdue populations and has nothing whatsoever to do with Reality.
In fact, if you investigate, it will clearly be revealed
that religious and spiritual people
are paradoxically less than truthful to their followers, for they do not share the
simple Truth
because they are really motivated by gratification and especially monetary gain or
spiritual greed.
Religious followers have for millennia become veiled with extra-ordinary stories,
myths and religious
conditioning and their culture or social programming strongly
reflect this.
Nowadays all nations are undeniably influenced
by their Religious beliefs.
For example if you look at any world politics and also with some countries at
their money,
they reflect that their religion is undeniably present in mainstream social cultures
and politics.
That is how children are shaped to become blind
followers, worshippers and believers. Yet man is just
an Ape or Homo-Sapiens, just another animal or living organism that has created a God
or Gods
to believe in, to pray and worship out of fear and ignorance.
What happens if someone changes their 'beliefs'. They
find something new or someone else
to pray to, worship and idolize. Nothing changes really, just the object, concepts
and target of
worship is changed. Some Jews become Christians, some Chirstians become Budhists etc,
etc, etc.
Many humans have been using a false concept of 'God' for
gratification, power, control and greed.
But man is just a monkey in a suit that believes itself to be so special. Just a
false notion or belief.
What is more greedy and self-destructive on Earth other than the animal species
called man?
In the human world, money is God.
The concept of a holy presence or God is just a carrot
used to entice people to buy a product based on fear and faith.
If you take a closer look at Sects, Cults with spiritual
Gurus etc, and all their spiritual concepts,
they simply have made up a spiritual Teaching which is nothing other than just
another branch
that has sprouted out from either Eastern or Western Religions that so many spiritual
people have tweaked for their own self-serving ways.
So the false notion of separation and bondage is only
because of spiritual and religious
brainwashing and social conditioning from a very early age in life.
People take on a spiritual or religious veil and do not
know any better, rarely does someone dare
to question their acquired religious and spiritual beliefs. Have a look at the
Spanish inquisition.
No one is rewarded by society if one takes the lonely
road
and chooses not to follow the flock like all others or blind sheep.
Freedom is to break Free from the hold that spirituality
and religions with all their fears, rules and
concepts have on someone psychologically and see the simple Truth for what it really
is.
Life is the only Reality. Nothing else. That
is the real Oneness.
No God or spiritual presence ever existed.
Being alive is the real experience itself.
One's own existence is abiding as the Reality. Life
itself is that Reality. Shining as ones' own being.
Life is the Oneness present in all. One Life expressing itself naturally as all
living things.
Consciousness shines as pure existence. It is the true
power present
we all know so well and undeniably like to be.
You are alive and therefore present as Life.
Like with water and ice, no Life, no you.
Here and now you are shining as that.

Q: Who wants Spiritual Liberation?
The three stooges!!! The fool, the blind and the
ignorant. Who else?
When there is no spiritual bondage, who needs spiritual liberation? No one.
Bondage is simply a psychological belief created by
acquiring spiritual and religious knowledge.
There is no other spiritual or religious bondage, chains, cage or prison other than
religious words.
As long as someone believes and cultivates any religious or spiritual concepts and
ideology,
they are paradoxically only bound to them. Bound to their spiritual beliefs only.
Nothing else.
Like a fish in the water crying that he is thirsty.
Everyone alive is already abiding as their true nature and are already ever-Free.
They do not know it. No one told them the simple Truth about spirituality and
religions.
Who told you that you are bound and why do you foolishly
believe it? After all, what binds you?
Bondage and liberation are simply a product of false imagination, deception, lies and
illusion.
There is no such thing as spiritual bondage and there is absolutely no spiritual
liberation.
Spiritual bondage and liberation are only found inside
religious organizations
and inside spiritual books. Used to entice simple Seekers to foolishly
believe
in their religious stories of spiritual salvation and spiritual made up cause.
The fact is that spiritual bondage and of course,
spiritual liberation never existed.
Just a religious hoax. God and the Devil and everything in between are only
fictitious, superstitious, imaginary and absolute illusion.
Foolish man created a God and his opposite or duality to
have something to fear,
something to worship, something to pray to, at one time offered sacrifices
and something to turn to, to ask for something better.
The bottom line is that in reality there is no such thing
as spiritual bondage or spiritual liberation.
Both are false acquired religious concepts or wrong acquired religious knowledge due
to people's ignorance of what true consciousness simply is.
Know the Truth! There is no God.
God is only made up religious crap and B.S.
Like Santa Claus and the Tooth fairy, God is illusory.
If you look for God or wait for God, you gonna be waiting for a long time.
All religious concepts ever written about a religious God
and spiritual Self are pure idiocy and ignorance only. Not true.
Religions are fiction and point away from the simple Truth. None of it real.
Consciousness is not something mystical, spiritual or
religious.
Reality is Life. Existence is consciousness present and naturally self-shining. Not
spiritual but natural.
Consciousness is Life itself. Life living itself naturally is all there is to
experience and enjoy presently.
That alone is the only Reality. Nothing else. There is no hell or heaven, no past or
future lives.
The absolute Reality is that, right here and now you are alive and aware of being.
Awareness of being present or existing is the Reality itself a.k.a. consciousness
shining as I am.
In other words, to be alive is to abide as one's true
nature. Life is another name for consciousness.
Call off the Search for Freedom and voila! You have arrived at the destination you
have never left.
Simply because there is no bondage to overcome, the only people that cultivate a
false notion of
spiritual bondage are psychologically disturb people. Religious or spiritual teachers
and believers.
If you believe you are bound. Realize that you are simply
bound to that false notion or belief itself.
Some people made a career to perpetuate the false notion of bondage and that of
liberation.
Take for example Gurus, Sages, Buddhas, Yogis or Jnanis
etc, these are just example of people
that exploit other people's ignorance and their religious conditioning.
Just this and nothing else.
Have a look at some of these self-appointed spiritual
Gurus and religious Teachers alike.
One day they were sex addicts, pedophiles, cheaters, liars, drunks, alcoholics, drug
addicts, etc, etc, etc.
And the next day they found redemption, salvation or Freedom and self-appointed
themselves as Saints,
Sages, Gurus and Jnanis, how laughable is that? Following psychologically disturbed
Sages and Saints.
Any spiritual Guru or Teacher is only someone that is
Seeking self-gratification or a fee
and that is only selling fiction and fantasy. Spirituality and religions are
illusion.
Kill the Buddha you see on the road because it is only a fraud. Nothing else.
Common to all of them, the blind and psychologically
disturbed person will be
leading the blind and psychologically disturbed followers. These are nut cases
leading spiritual groups as spiritual Gurus and religious Cults.
All are just disturbed people that become spiritual Teachers and religious Leaders to
their kin.
Misery likes company. They will band together.
Now if you are psychologically disturbed and are
suffering, you should get yourself a therapist
to listen to your problems and to why you are so unhappy. If drugs or
alcohol is plaguing you,
get some help through rehab, etc. Get yourself some professional advise
and professional help.
On the other end, if you ever come across some delusional
loony that has gone through
a twelve steps program and claims to have found God or became spiritual enlightened
and is now cured from psychological suffering and addictions, you better run.
Bound to substance addictions and depression, there are
no religious demons to combat.
For many people life is not unfolding the way they dreamed or expected it to be and
therefore
become delusional and out of touch with reality, for some they eventually fall deeper
into depression.
Spirituality and religions are only taking advantage of people's psychological
suffering and
unhappiness with the irresistible enticing offer of false promises of spiritual
liberation or salvation.
Offering the new best 'cure' or carrot for unhappy people
to live in peace and happiness. Spirituality
is just like any other money making scheme that is only targeting
vulnerable and desperate people
that are psychologically suffering. Lost and confused to what is Life truly all
about,
they only fall into a trap.
Spiritual goals are all false and are only illusory. None of it is true
but only a trap of enticing illusion.
No one can ever become spiritually liberated. How could it be so, when there is no
spiritual bondage?
Beware of all self-appointed spiritual Teachers and religious Leaders for they are
poison, not the cure.
Spiritual people are scammers and liars that are in fact
only selling water by the river to the veiled.
Realize that any spiritual or religious concept of bondage and liberation is all
false and only a lie.
Spirituality and all religions are just in the business of selling fantasy to the
ignorant believer.
It is all a scam! Spiritual bondage is only a false concept or religious belief. A
fictitious carrot.
There is no such thing. The only so called 'Freedom' is to remove the
false idea of being bound.
That is all there is to be done...
************************
Don't mind me. 7/05/10
Q: What is mind?
Illusion.
Any concept of mind present anywhere is only cultivated
by the veiled or the ignorant until the simple Truth is revealed.
Take for example someone telling others, "that the answer is not found in the mind,
consciousness expresses through the mind or the mind is trying to grasp this or do
that",
that is only wrong knowledge cultivated by the ignorant as false wisdom. It is not
true at all.
That is only feeding crap or illusion to the ignorant
Seekers for self-gratification or a fee.
A mental trap, so to speak. To subtly perpetuate through ignorance a false notion
of duality by cultivating wrong knowledge, therefore Seekers will
falsely believe that they are bound to the imaginary.
If one is feed crap long enough, they will eventually believe it.
Looking for help, they will turn to someone pretending
to be holy, when in fact they are already free.
Show me your chains!
Like a rope falsely believed to be a snake. Mind is only
a false assumption.
So my advice to you is to 'beware' of any self-appointed spiritual Guru or Teacher,
that talk about any 'mind' present, for they are only talking about the false or
illusion,
like if it was Reality. Can you show me your mind? Have a look and see, if you can
find it.
There is no mind present apart from consciousness.
Consciousness is all there is present with oneself as oneself.
Therefore consciousness is itself the thinker and the
thought.
There is no other thinker present apart from consciousness itself.
Consciousness is the only presence. The only Reality.
No mind ever existed.
Could someone foolishly call the 'mind', just changing or
transient 'thoughts' only?
Of course not! That is rubbish! Consciousness as the true cognitive presence
is what people mistakenly call the 'mind', nothing else.
Wrong acquired dualistic knowledge and therefore false
identification due to ignorance.
The only trouble is to label one's true nature aka consciousness 'mind'. That is the
mistake.
When some asks you, what good and bad thoughts were going through your 'mind' that day?
Are we talking about the subject present or the changing thoughts, as the illusory concept
of 'mind'.
Awareness present of course is referred to as 'mind' itself in that case. The thoughts
themselves
are not what is referred erroneously as 'mind', they were just the changing content of
that day.
Realize that no thought have ever gone through your
'mind'.
Because you do not have one. You only believe that you do.
Just like ego, the false notion of 'mind' is just a
mistake.
Awareness is the only subject or the only witness.
How else would someone know what was going through?
Awareness is iself the activity of knowing or cognizing what ever is.
The Reality is that there is no duality. Being oneself is
consciousness.
There never was a 'mind' present to go beyond. Everyone is already whole.
Consciousness alone is ever present as the subject,
witness or knower of all thoughts.
All thoughts are just appearing on consciousness. The content that is cognized.
Some are paid attention to and some are not, they just come and they just go.
True consciousness is the witnessing presence or that which is aware of any thoughts.
Present awareness. Who is present and aware of thoughts? I am aware of them.
Consciousness is that I am-ness you know so well already as yourself.
Consciousness present is the true cognitive presence itself.
Some erroneously label consciousness and call it 'mind'.
There is nothing other than consciousness ever present as
oneself.
That is the bottom line. No duality. The I present in I am
represent that presence of consciousness itself.
Awareness of being is always primary.
Before anyone can say I am, consciousness must be there.
Books and others may talk erroneously about mind this or
ego that.
Seemingly dividing consciousness into this or that illusion.
That mistake is only due to ignorance.
To not know one's true nature and therefore oneself.
Upon self-inquiry or self-investigation the false notion of mind disappears.
To know the Reality. Discern between true consciousness
which is the real you
and transient consciousness which are the changing thoughts that appear and disappear.
How to do that? Easy, pause thoughts or be still and true
consciousness
is self-revealed as your thoughtless Reality. The you that does not come or go anywhere
like thoughts do. They will come, they will go like they are supposed to, but you always
remain.
All transient or changing thoughts that appear and disappear on consciousness aka,
what people erroneously call 'mind' are also consciousness in nature of course
and can only be cognized by consciousness itself.
Consciousness is the Reality. There is no other witness
or knower present.
Only consciousness is present and nothing else. You are that presence itself.
To be conscious is to abide as consciousness. Also called
sentience or awareness.
You know it so well already as your own being. It is what you are naturally.
To be conscious is consciousness itself. To be conscious is to be aware of thoughts.
Thinking! That is just the natural activity of being alive and aware. What else would it
be?
There is nothing wrong with thinking, it is a natural
activity of existence. Just misunderstood.
Realize that all there is ever present is always consciousness. It is Omni-presence.
Nothing else.
Therefore what can be wrong with thinking? When it is just the natural expression of Life
itself.
To fight thoughts is to fight Life, can you win?
Just understand that thoughts come and thoughts go, that is what they do.
Let them do what they do, water must run. Leave them be
as they are.
While you are alive and aware of being, thoughts will be there
as the natural activity of consciousness present or Life.
The only mistake is to erroneously label consciousness as
something apart, that some call 'mind'
when in fact, there is no mind present now and there never was a mind present at anytime.
It just does not exist, like a mirage. It is only a false notion or illusion.
Investigate what is real. Try to find a mind present
anywhere and see.
What mind? There is no mind to be found simply because it never existed at all.
Ignorance alone camouflages this simple fact. These are
things one must have a look at,
to remove all camouflage. Nothing else. Then consciousness is revealed as Omni-presence.
Consciousness and you are One, you are that and nothing
else.
Same exact presence of existence you know so well as your own being.
There never was a mind to go beyond or to give any credit for doing anything.
Get to know yourself and you know consciousness to be you.
Same exact presence of being, that one falsely identify
as
being a separate independent entity is in fact the Reality.
The Self that was never lost.
No one is ever apart from consciousness,
because it is everyone's true nature and Reality.
Nothing to be freshly acquired or to be changed about oneself for consciousness to be.
That is all there is ever present as oneself naturally.
You know it so well as you. Consciousness is another name for you.
************************
What's for dinner? Brain and
consciousness 6/28/10
Q: If there is no mind present, what about the brain?
The brain is only an organ just like the heart.
Can you have a heart beat without consciousness?
Life or Consciousness present within the body is the living power
and cognitive intelligence governing, expressing and experiencing itself through the
brain.
You could say that consciousness is at once the 'thinker'
and the 'knower' of the thoughts.
Same with all other natural activities cognized by the brain through the five senses.
Seeing is cognized by the presence of consciousness
inside the brain.
Hearing is cognized by the presence of consciousness inside the brain.
Feeling is cognized by the presence of consciousness inside the brain.
Thinking is cognized by the presence in consciousness inside the brain.
Consciousness present within the brain is the true
'knower'.
Any organ of itself cannot do anything without consciousness present.
Consciousness is the unseen power present within the
body.
The Reality within your own dwelling. You are that presence itself.
So when you know that you are present and shining as this
consciousness itself,
that awareness of being yourself can be translated by a thought and expressed with the
words 'I' am.
All rises first within the brain as the activity of
thinking which is the natural activity of consciousness.
Just like all rising waves on the Ocean are nothing but the expression and essence of the
Ocean itself.
All thoughts created within the brain can only rise from
and be cognized by consciousness itself
and then all thoughts disappear back into that exact same presence of consciousness.
Mind does not exist. Consciousness is the true 'thinker' and also the only 'knower'
present as oneself.
All there is present as oneself is and always has been the presence of consciousness.
Consciousness is the true 'thinker', effortlessly self-shining within the brain as the
natural activity
of being awake, sentient or cognizant it produces thoughts all day long and also registers
or
witnesses them passing by or coming and going all day long as well, one could say that
Life
or consciousness is only playing with or entertaining itself.
Consciousness present is all inclusive.
Just like with water and ice. There is no ice present without water.
There are no thoughts present without consciousness present.
Dead people don't think.
Thinking is simply the natural expression of being alive.
That is all is.
The true essence of any thought is nothing but consciousness also.
When consciousness leaves the form or the object, it is all over for the organism we call
the body.
Even though they have the organ or a brain present. Dead people or corps are still and
silent,
they do not feel or think anything because there is no consciousness present to produce
any thoughts and be aware of them or any feelings that arise.
Life must be present for the body to be created and be naturally governed by consciousness
and for consciousness to express and experience itself individually it needs an organism
or body.
Can anyone see, hear, feel, and think without a brain?
Can the brain see, hear, feel and think by itself without consciousness present?
Consciopusness present is at once the activity of being
and knowing.
It is abiding as oneself, it is 'I' am. Consciousness shines as wakeful-ness.
Can anyone be aware of anything without consciousness present first as the 'I'?
Look at what happens when you are unconscious during surgery, do you go ouch
it hurts or think about taking a vacation at the beach or paying your bills? Of course
not!
Understand that there is nothing wrong with thinking. It
is natural.
Consciousness is the self-shining presence of existence we all like to be.
Consciousness is not still or silent. Life is an
activity. It is lively and buoyant.
Don't a fooled by seeking states like silence and stillness that appear on the stateless.
Just like someone playing a musical instrument.
The brain is just a tool of expression for consciousness, nothing else.
Funny how Oneness is. Consciousness is the cognitive
presence that at once both
creates and watches thoughts. The creator or Thinker and the Knower or witness of all
thoughts.
It is the One without two.
