Listen, trust and learn from yourself. Ultimately we are our own best teachers.

I have nothing to say and I am saying it and that is poetry as I need it.

John Cage

Shifting out of our world of images and stories about ourselves and the world is simple but hard, because there are no images or stories of being without an image or story.

If we are anything we may say we are fields of potentiality.

We can discover everything we need to know about ourselves by observing how we behave when no one is looking.

The universe includes us but isn’t about us.

Others suffer because we suffer.

Everything minus the ego.

The non dual condition is fundamentally paradoxical. As quantum phenomena are real but make no sense, the non dual perspective confounds its own actuality. It is formless yet revealed by and as form. It is empty yet abundantly full. There is no there there yet it’s actuality is apparent by it’s absence.
It defies all meaning as there is nothing to hang anything onto. It asserts itself by denying itself.
Nothing to see yet everything revealed.

‘Awareness’ is a word that points to the seeing that is never divided into seer and seen.

Joan Tollifson

Walking into each moment without history or expectation.

The only way one really gets any of the most important benefits of meditation practice is by giving up on the notion that there are any benefits to meditation practice.

Brad Warner

Enlightenment is the end of the one who cares about being enlightened or unenlightened.

What is beyond doubt takes no effort to maintain.

“The entirety of practical spirituality consists of distinguishing fantasy from actuality.

Spirituality is the art of distinguishing fantasy from actuality

The entirety of practical spirituality consists of distinguishing fantasy from actuality. The spiritual problem consists of not being able to distinguish fantasy from actuality… It’s not that fantasy is bad, it’s not that fantasy is wrong, and it’s not that imagination needs to be squelched or repressed. It just needs to be seen as it is for what it is.

Peter Brown

This. This, that is utterly inconceivable and yet totally obvious and impossible to avoid.

Joan Tollifson

Thoughts are stories. Emotions are energy. Connect the two and cling to either or both creates suffering. To see through them and show their essential transient nature reveals the pristine neutral clarity of open empty awareness which precedes all experience.
