“INNERMOST SILENCE (STILLNESS), CLARITY”

Innermost silence (stillness), clarity is always present within us.

It asserts nothing, truly nothing.

It says neither “that’s what I should do” nor “that’s what I shouldn’t do.”

Or, it never says, “This is me” or “This is my.”

Or, it never says like “I have achieved XX” or “I can’t do XX.”

Despite any linguistic communication and known knowledge not being there at all, but with its clarity, it always and imideately reveals truth and fact to the awareness.

This is the essence, what Nisargadatta Maharaj called “I AM.” That is, the transcendental “I” that is always immutable, immediate present as openness or wholeness, but never the personal “I.”

It is something formless—not body, any thoughts, certainly not emotions, nor the experiencer, the thinker, or even the mind (ego).

This is the absolute stillness (ocean) as consciousness, where infinite possibilities manifest. And the awareness (waves) that is the same stillness as that consciousness, that can notice, sense, and witness the various things that manifest in that consciousness.

This stillness is Absolute Reality, The Self, the completeness, or omnipresent consciousness, and it ever has nothing to add or subtract.

What we do or who we are doesn’t matter.

What we identify with “I” makes the difference.

There are two groups: One is that it constantly does create various separations and problems, and so being confused, comparing, judging, desperately trying to be someone, trying to be good, but after all, trying to conquer, or competing or fighting, due to fear.

While the other is that by the clarity of the innermost stillness that sees through facts and truth, dismantling and dissolving the root of problems (illusions), yet, while always remaining within stillness and being with the joy or happiness of beingness of present.

The former is the personal “I” that is associated with, unconscious identification with illusions such as the mind (ego, thoughts), body, or memories, and the resulting attachment to the illusions, that result from them. The latter is immutable, immediate, and absolute reality.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

First, find innermost stillness.

Then, be with that innermost stillness.

When you realize that you have strayed from that innermost stillness, return to it.

Again and again.

Each time you do this, it will become more natural, and before you know it, being with that innermost stillness will become more natural than anything else.

But never try to attain it.

Striving that trying to achieve that state, or thinking that “I” must always be in that state, is always undoubtedly by the mind (the ego, the illusory “I”) and such doership will only become an obstacle that is not only the innermost stillness, but increasingly obscures the truth.

Give up all of them.

Surrender everything that belongs to that personal “I,” including that “I” itself.

Furthermore, give up even the act of giving up.

In other words, instead of directing attention outward, turn inward, when the awareness is simply, purely observing everything as unknown, including the self, as what is, without judgement, it will naturally detach the awareness from the mind (ego) into inner no-self.

However, at that time, even though the awareness will inevitably be in that stillness, but usually without realizing, or recognizing, or perceiving about it. How the awareness is will be recognized only when the pure question arises spontanously, and not otherwise.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

Innermost stillness, or clarity will never disappear, nor will they ever be lost.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

There is nothing to acheive, and no one anywhere will acheive anything.

In other words, we never become anyone.

Only the awareness merely becomes aware that purely and directly, without any known knowledge or experience, it has always been as non-dual “The formless Self itself,” and that it is never lost, nor ever will be lost. (OM 🙏)
