The journey ends right where it begins. This is it.

An amazing share below as well:

 

There is nothing that you have to become or be.

Think of all the people running around looking for liberation, looking for realization. Who wants to be liberated? The ego. There is no ego. There is no one to be liberated, but you continue doing it. You continue carrying on your deeds, you continue believing that you exist. Remember, never put lion's milk in a clay pot.

So why are you here? You want a teaching. You want a lesson. You want a mantra. You're looking for a way out. All this keeps you back. Your searching, your seeking keeps you back. It doesn't make you fulfilled. It doesn't do anything for you.

Awakening is a joke.

Liberation is a joke.

My sitting here talking to you is a joke,

for you think you have to find something, you think you have to achieve something, you think you have to become something. This is what the scriptures mean by attachment. You're attached to your mind, and its false beliefs. The so-called mind tells you that something is this way and something is that way, this is good and this is bad, this is right and this is wrong, and you react to it, bringing more problems into your so called existence. But, wouldn't it be beautiful if you could just awaken one morning and realize you don't exist, that you never existed, and no one exists, there's no existence whatsoever? Then where would you be? Who knows? But as long as you believe that you exist, you're going to stick up for your rights, you're going to fight for survival, you're going to seek wisdom. It is all very funny to me.

Even when I tell you to wake up,

there's really no one to wake up,

for no one's ever gone to sleep.

To wake up you have to be asleep.

Who sleeps?

You may say, "The body, the mind sleeps,"

but there is no body,

there is no mind.

There never was. [!]

.

All the teachings you've been through are a waste of time, the struggling, running all over the world looking for Masters and teachers, reading all these scriptures in detail, to what avail? Why do you think you need these things? All you really have to do is understand what I am talking about. Ponder what I say. And then forget it.

Do not hold on

to thoughts,

to words,

to messages.

The reason the bird sings beautifully, and exists so beautifully, is because it doesn't know it's a bird. It doesn't know it's anything. It has no idea what it is. We give it a name, bird. We could have given it the name cow. We call a bird a bird and we call a cow a cow. We give names to all these things, but these things just are. They aren't here, they aren't there. They aren't good, they aren't bad. They just are, and the same with you. You are not this and you are not that, you just are.

There is nothing you have to do,

absolutely nothing you have to do. [!]

Think of all the years you've spent studying. Where's it all going to lead? What will become of it? You may have altruistic attitudes, believe that you're doing good for the world, for the future of this world, but this world has no future. It never did, it never will. As I mentioned in the beginning, we have had millions of civilizations on this earth, they've come and they've gone. Civilizations that surpassed where we are now. It's all gone. What I'm trying to say is you can't do any good for anybody. Everything is right just the way it is. Nothing in this world needs improvement. The improvement idea comes into your own mind. You believe you are a person, you believe you think, then the ideas come to you, what you can do to improve the world, and you try, and you try, and you try, to no avail.

You must know yourself as no thing.

Do not look at yourself as something.

Always bear in mind,

there is absolutely nothing you have to do.

This is how you become happy, peaceful, joyous, for when there is nothing in the mind, happiness itself becomes prevalent.

.

Awaken from this mortal dream. [!]

When I say this ask yourself,

"Who has to awaken?"

"Who is there who has to awaken?"

The way you make progress‚ if there's any progress to be made, is by contradicting everything I say. Again, when I say,

"Wake up,"

ask yourself,

"who is there to wake up?"

When I say,

"Drop everything,"

inquire,

"who's to drop everything?"

In other words, what you're doing is you're saying there never was anybody or anything that has to wake up or to drop. Nothing like that exists. There's no one who exists like that. Can't you see now why there is nothing to say, really? Can you see all the words are redundant, superfluous? We can play all sorts of games if we want to, do all sorts of mantras, tantric techniques. We can do all of these things, but for what, to what avail? You just have to know that

you are nobody,

there's absolutely nothing to do,

and no one exists. [!]

This relieves you of everything, doesn't it? It relieves you of all responsibility to yourself and to the world. Again, what I'm telling you will not turn you into a vegetable, where you just sit on a log and contemplate your navel. If you're listening to me correctly, you will do whatever you're doing now but you'll be happier than you've ever been in your life, because you'll realize that it doesn't matter. You'll know there's nobody really doing anything. Yet you will be doing the work that you usually do, if you want to do that. You will appear to be living a human existence, but you will know there's nobody left to do anything.

The doer is gone.

There's no doer.

The doer has been completely wiped out. [!]

.

Some of you still believe that if you become this way you'll become so sarcastic and belligerent, you will not care, you will not be loving and kind, but this is not true. On the contrary,

as you drop everything,

as you let go of all your preconceived ideas,

your dogmas,

as you forget all of your rituals

and all the things you've been doing all your life,

what we call LOVE begins to function as you. What we call COMPASSION begins to function as you. LOVING KINDNESS, PEACE, these attributes will automatically take over, for you have lost all fear. When you have lost all fear for existence, LOVE automatically takes over. But as long as you fear existence and you think something's wrong somewhere, then the mind blows up all kinds of pictures, and you have to go out and defend yourself and do things, for your own self aggrandizement.

(pause)

Never put goat's milk in a wooden pot.

@Mikael89 sorry if no cigar...

this is just bubbling out of a deep experience i had yesterday

i finally found myself

in the pauses between the thoughts or no thoughts altogether

but not only that, i remain during the thoughts as well

 

you signature says, who or what is the see-er?

the see-er IS and is seen by THAT

and THAT is all there is

@SoonHei Indeed.

That which is sought is not to be found within the timeline. Only here and now.

The journey is the goal. The journey is the finish line. Yet, it often takes a lot of seeking for that truth to be revealed in direct experience.

With that awareness, can you sink deeper into pure BE-ingness?

We can never become That, IT, we can only awaken and realize that we have always been it. But the One is disguised in illusions like form and the ego, in duality and multiplicity, although being those simultaneously or a manifestation of those illusions. So God plays hides and seek. Enlightenment is when God gets caught, most importantly as one's self. Or rather, God catches itself (ego) and awakens to itself.
