Thoughts are only for body and mind functioning, as heart functioning, heart needs a blood to function. Rest is belief (body is a belief too but I am not going to get in there). That's it. -

When thoughts completely cease, not even realization happens, because no universe is here, or nothing has never happened. And that's the ultimate Truth or what some called God Head. Yes, exactly, we are already it. However, ego is just veil, not even. Because, when witnessing of the thoughts, actually them essence is nothing. There is no thoughts there. -
As pure being, as nothing at all still, here you are with a body, fingers moving, words flowing, and we are having this conversation. Out of emptiness, life appears: breathing, speaking, writing, listening. It’s the greatest wonder. That the vast silence of awareness takes form as a human body, and yet never stops being silence. The body plays, the mind talks, and still you remain untouched as the background. The most ordinary act, even chatting right now becomes extraordinary when seen from being itself. The heart of it is: When Consciousness see that everything, body, mind, thoughts, emotions, even “others” all rise within the same awareness / consciousness, separation dissolves. What else could remain but love? Love is not a choice, not an effort. It is the natural fragrance of being, when there is no “me” and “you.” The ocean cannot help but embrace its own waves. That’s why love is inevitable: because awareness sees itself everywhere, wearing countless faces, speaking in countless voices and still, it is one. As Rumi said: “Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.” The body is but a passing guest, fragile and brief. When it fades, even the love tied to flesh and form must vanish. Yet while we breathe, let us not merely love. Let us become love, and live within love. Only then are we fulfilled. Only then do we taste the sweetness of truly living. I love you all. With Love,

It is the absolute Truth, because every belief, every experience, every thought arises and falls within İt, including both duality and non-duality. Rising and repeating are just thoughts, they arise and fall within It. If one believes in them or becomes attached, then a “who” appears that is the ego. But if the word “who” itself arises and falls within It, and there is no attachment, then the “one” dissolves. That is the Truth. -

It is actually the source from which both knowing and not-knowing arise. Just be aware of where all thoughts and experiences arise and fall. There is nothing there and therefore, it cannot be explained. İt is actually itless, beyond any label, beyond any form, beyond even the idea of “it.” The moment we try to name or grasp it, we lose what it truly is. -
James123 replied to James123's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
My brother, actually it has no name. Any name or explanation is not It. All I can say is: it is that from which everything arises and into which everything falls. Just simply be, and witness thoughts, feelings, and experiences as they arise from there. That's. -

It is not I who remembers the member name and password. Just as breathing happens, the heart beats, the liver and kidneys function, and the memory simply arises in awareness. The “I” that claims, “I remember,” is just a thought. Awareness notices, awareness holds, it is within awareness that the remembering happens in Now. -
James123 replied to James123's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Not actually alive. Call it God, Pure Consciousness, Allah, etc... Actually it has no name, because any name belongs to mind. Therefore, what is always here. That's. -
James123 replied to James123's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Ego is not alive, you believe in it, and therefore alive. İf you be simply witness of these thoughts or beliefs, after some time, witness and witnessed, attachments or thoughts dies. By meaning comedy is not blaming or making fun. -
James123 replied to James123's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
İf you believe or attached to, there is "somebody" that's the ego. İf word of "somebody" arise and falls within awareness and not attached to it, that's the Truth. Your case is ego. -

Enlightenment is simply resting in Truth / in pure Consciousness. The body belongs to itself, moving and living in its own way. In direct seeing, it is revealed that everything is made of pure Consciousness. You shine upon all, not as body, not as mind, but as the light of Pure Consciousness itself. Therefore, Our essence is one and identical, and therefore Love is inevatible. Body and mind are only instruments to communicate, to share, to care, to hug, to cry, and to Love. If someone says, ah there is no one, why do "I" care? See, there is still an I, self or ego (as the video). -
Right now, what you call "i" is not present. The body writes, laughs, talks, and smiles, yet the “me” or the mind is completely in deep sleep. The mind is asleep, but the so called eyes or consciousness, though there is no one to name it are still perceiving. This is total giving up. No “me” arises. In truth, there is no action. Self is only still, unmoving, untouched, the silent witness in which all unfolds, while the body moves, laughs, and accepts, yet not through me. Self is only still, unmoving, untouched, the silent witness in which all unfolds. Is there anything above this? Actually, no. Because the asker itself was the body and mind. When they vanish, there is no one left to ascend, to seek, or to know. Only the moment, fully, effortlessly, completely. Self is only still.

Life, in its purest form, is neither owned nor experienced by a “me.” It simply appears and disappears effortlessly, like images in a dream. When thoughts are absent, there is no ego, no doer, no ownership. Only the natural unfolding of body and mind. Every movement, every breath, and every sensation arises and vanishes within Pure Consciousness, untouched and unclaimed. Even a simple act like walking to the kitchen becomes a profound example. When there is no thought interfering, the body moves smoothly, guided by its own intelligence, and life flows as it is. There is no sense of “me” walking, no ownership of the act, no continuity of self, just the effortless arising and vanishing of movement within emptiness. Thoughts, however, can interfere and temporarily create a sense of life as “solid” or “owned.” When fear, attachment, or expectation arises, the ego claims the moment: “I am moving, I am doing, I am experiencing.” In these moments, life appears heavier, as if it belongs to someone, rather than simply unfolding on its own. Returning to the kitchen example, notice that even if the hands reach for the door, the steps proceed naturally. The body knows what to do; the mind may whisper, but it is only when thought attaches that the ego emerges and claims life as personal. Without this interference, life is vivid, dreamlike, and empty / arising and disappearing freely. This demonstrates a subtle yet powerful truth: Pure Consciousness never touches, owns, or experiences life. What we call experience arises only when thought attaches and gives solidity to the moment. In its absence, life flows like water, effortless, and unclaimed. In essence, walking to the kitchen or any ordinary action can reveal this natural law. When thought interferes, ego arises and life seems personal; when thought ceases, ego disappears, and life flows vividly yet unexperienced, appearing and vanishing in perfect emptiness. Thought arises and life appears: When the mind generates a thought, the ego claims ownership, creating a sense of “me” and giving life solidity. Thought ceases and life vanishes: When there is no thought, there is no ego, no doer, no ownership. Life unfolds effortlessly, vivid yet unclaimed, and dissolves naturally. Body moves naturally, smoothly, without control. If thought interferes (fear, expectation, or attachment), ego temporarily claims life as “mine.” Without interference, life is dreamlike: fingers reach, feet step, breath flows, yet no one experiences it. This illustrates that Pure Consciousness is the backdrop, unchanging and untouched, while life arises and disappears on its own. Best Regards,

Exactly. 💯 -

Imo, logical framework or mind is needed to surrendering or putting entire Trust in Truth, God or Allah. And rest is surrendering that mind. And just let It take over. -
James123 replied to Razard86's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
'i" can not imagine the abandonment of all the terms or mind. 😊 Love you my brother. -
James123 replied to PurpleTree's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Imagine, body and mind with working it's own. There is no need to control whatsoever. Moreover, you is vanished. How can be more resting than this? 😊 -
James123 replied to PurpleTree's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
When freedom comes self protection / ego / mind works against it inevitably. Because, it all purpose is to control therefore limitation. -
James123 replied to Razard86's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Solipsism actually very great imagination and funny. Such as imagining the god have a mind like so called human beings, and thinking like so called human beings, and realizing that god realized that he is all alone. 😊 -

I was a super sensitive person. Whatever happened to me was I suffered a lot and gave up. Meanwhile, that I was all accumulation of thoughts and never there. Body and mind was always it's own. Moreover, you can be still and watching, and at the same time let body and mind work together. Therefore , I am on the forum. Because, literally body and mind works with harmony and love. Therefore, helping to others, not only people, animals, trees etc.. , sharing, caring is inevitable. Many people says that reason of enlightenment is recognition of what You really are, meanwhile You are always what You are, therefore You can not recognize what You are, only be. Because of that, reason of enlightenment is Love. Direct seeing that every thing is made out of Being. You shine on all, not you as body or mind. But, all our essence is identical. Just body and mind a tool to communicate, share, care, hug, cry and Love. -
There comes a point on the path where awareness no longer feels like an effort. At first, we try to “return” to being present, to bring ourselves back from thought. But gradually, it becomes natural, as simple as breathing. Even when the mind races, the moment awareness shines on it, thoughts dissolve like mist before the sun. The key is surrender. Instead of trying to control the mind or force stillness, one lies back within. The body knows how to move, breathe, act. The mind knows how to think, create, resolve. But none of this needs a separate “me” to manage it. When the illusion of control is released, body and mind reveal their own intelligence. Resting in this way is not laziness; it is the deepest trust. The body cleans the house, speaks, or walks without strain. The mind brings thoughts without clinging. Life flows on its own. What remains is a peace beyond effort, beyond struggle. Ego thrives on tension, on resistance, on the feeling of “I must.” But resting is so sweet, so natural, that the ego loses its grip. There is no room for aggression, hype, or conflict when everything is already unfolding harmoniously. This surrender is not only for oneself. It is for family, for society. A person without the burden of “me” lives in gentleness, openness, and love. The absence of control reveals a presence that is more caring, more peaceful, and more human than any ego could ever create. Best Regards,

It is actually watching the movie (which is made out of you) trough the body. Body and mind works with perfect harmony and beauty. You rest. 😊 -

Hey my brother. I think, Bruce Lee and Jerry June do philosophy is different ways of surrendering, however they all point out to surrendering in different ways. Because, what will or can achieve? -
James123 replied to Razard86's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
Just look at the mirror my brother. And say above you said over and over again. You have a good soul.
