the seeker that comes to the master
is to be open in heart and mind
he is to be ready to receive like an empty vessel
he is like a one that does not know
and does not look to understand by mental calculations
or comparing what he *thinks* is right
to what is being spoken as truth
if he wants to know what God (the pure soul) is directly
and what it is not...
and what it is not...
he can only know this by imbibing the non-dual knowledge
of a one that rests in this light
he cannot know what is real by any other means
for to say one knows, implies that the journey has been traversed
in full and mind is still and resting in beautitude, and glory of the
non-dual
the mind cannot know it or even begin to hear it ...
what takes in the blessing of truth is the heart that is open
it receives as pure intelligence that is not tainted by the story of
me ...
this is grace which has it's own nature that is not to be seen
by a persona ...
the man that comes to the master lays down his pretense
of being *someone* in the world
that is a certain way in mind and body and opens
to hear the living truth that flows
from the lips of one that cannot be otherwise --
for this one is freed of shackles of worldly attachments and thoughts
he does not know anything but truth and yet knows
the mind in and out due to traversing every aspect of it
and coming out the other end shorn clean of this energy
that manifests as thoughts and concepts ...
so the man that is seeking is not to put himself above or below in mind
as this is completely false ... but to be without barriers and internal
judgements ...
then the truth can penetrate which is what will break down the
structure of mind ...
the man that seeks is to make himself available to truth
by his honest character...
this is very important as it shakes out the deception that lurks in the mind
the shadows cannot be justified so easily within honesty...
which means keeping one's own counsel as well as being
up front in action, word and deed...
not hypocritical or confused and labile (or back and forth)...
steady in clean living inside and out.. ....
the master will bring forward what needs to be said --
but the most powerful work is thru pure silence of mind in which
the master lives and breathes...
this is incomparable in terms of breaking down the illusion that is
at the forefront for the seeker ...
the silence of mind that comes to a one that has completed the journey
is the same unto all when the coverings fall --
there is nothing beyond this to know or live ...
at this point, the journey is done, finished, over and completed
there cannot be anything beyond pure stillness that carries no drop
of *other* within it ...
this is what remains in the heart when all else that is disturbing
as thought falls and dies away...
then the truth is revealed and this is *one without a second*
this pure consciousness that remains
is the most glorious and the most beautiful...
is the most glorious and the most beautiful...
the most rich and the most auspicious
the most compassionate and the most clear
all of it --
yet there is no way to describe it --
yet there is no way to describe it --
this freedom is not anything to take casually...
but to make efforts and move forward *into*...
until this richness that is the SELF of all is known and lived ...
