  1. I am sorry to give this example so often, But just go in front of the mirror and think over and over again. What do you see in your head?
  2. It is actually crazy. When one analyze the thoughts, the origin is something like emptiness or nameless. Because, giving any name arises within it. And when one looks closely thoughts are empty, there is nothing there. Therefore, even one or looker and looked vanishes too.
  3. Oh sorry, I thought you were asking me why do they do that. They just believe there is a past and within that past suffering happened. Meanwhile it is just a thought attachment that arises in now. Therefore, past, pain and person imagined within the thought.
  4. Actually, That's the thoughts about past as imagining past, meanwhile all thoughts arises and falls in now. I don't know why people go, maybe to heal?
  5. There is no higher self nor lower self. Attachment to thinking as I is so called ego. When the thoughts arises and falls within, it is Truth.
  6. Actually, not forcing the thinking. Letting the mind chattering connects with body which only takes place when it is necessary. And You rest as always.
  7. Because, dream still continues, yet sometimes "me" completely disseappears, therefore life, body or universe.
  8. That's the veil, actually not even. When "you" "see", let me know. Peace my brother.
  9. where is it? Just think this over and over again in front of the mirror, and see is there anything there?
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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,

  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
  21. 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).
  22. 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.
  23. 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,
