I am not the enlightened, I am not the unenlightened,

I am not the stupid, I am not the smart,

I am not the good, I am not the evil,

I am not the pleasure, I am not the pain,

I am not human, I am not God,

I am not the ordinary, I am not the extraordinary,

I am not the one who writes this post, I am not the one who reads this post

Who am I?

I am the knowing of all those separate ones. I am the glue that sticks those together into oneness now. 

The observer

Infinitely fresh.

I am what even Gods bow to.

I am the eternal empty fire, now and always now.

 

 

Yes I am

Breath is the universe's deepest wish and it is enjoying it through us.

And we are the universe.

I feel gloriously empty!

Do you have some favorite simple oneliners you could share that bring enlightenment?

 

"To awaken, it does not matter what you do...it matters what you cease doing."

"Upon awakening, you clearly realize that all of that time you spent in the process of freeing yourself from bondage was the delusion of bondage itself."

"The secret is to simply enjoy what is happening."

"You can't practice to become what you already are."

"Happiness is something you are, when you are not making yourself miserable."

"People never attain enlightenment…enlightenment happens to them."

"Nothing is ever gained with enlightenment…it is only a loss."

If one thinks that they understand spirituality without actually researching let alone practicing it, chances are that they don't understand anything at all.

All our energies go to our body-mind. There are many
people who at the first sign of a bellyache are ready
to rush to the doctor; they take it that seriously. But
the suffering due to ignorance of the Self is going on
for lifetimes and nobody takes that so seriously.
And this we call life. Isn’t it funny?

Truth is gained, delusion is lost.

But I have to add that a lot of people would prefer illusion over truth.

Stop fucking seeking for a fucking experience.

Pretty sure there is people who realize themselves without any spiritual knowledge.

Enlightenement is just being present by stopping the identification with the mind, there is no need to practice a meditation or to read scriptures/books about it.

The truth is ever present...and not gained.  You simply lost the delusion.

It is like looking for your wedding ring.  Searching the couch, the bed, the car, the garage, and the various places you have been.  Then to notice that you are wearing it.  What was gained...nothing at all.

[Dodo]

Every life experience is God's gift to God. The gift itself is also God.

The present moment is absolutely infinite and every Ego at the root is that infinity.

Ego and everything else is a fruit of this underlying infinity.

An integrated ego is a sweet edible ripe fruit.

A non-integrated ego is a poisonous fruit. Not bad in the eyes of God, but bad from the human consciousness perspective.

God doesn't care whether a fruit is poisonous or not, it is still God's creation.

Would be more acurate to say then - the REALIZATION of truth is gained...like, after having searched all places in the house, you realize the ring was on your finger the whole time.

Sure that linguistic game can be played (because loss and gain are opposing dualistic words and so there are no losses without relatedly worded gains), but then you miss the point of the one-liner.

Say yes to the moment and then you might even enjoy it.

And say no to the previous moment and say fuck off to the future one.

If you're aware, the experience is real - even if it's in a dream.

If you go for enlightenment, you don't go for enlightenment. 

You can only go for enlightenment, by not going for it!
