“WE ARE NOTHING, AND YET AT THE SAME TIME, WE ARE EVERYTHING.”

When all illusions are collapsed, and yet those creation and disappear as impermanence unchangeably continues to occur, such as thoughts appear and disappear, emotions come and go, and experiences arise and subside, just as before. However, by continually seeing through all the illusions as untruth that are the root of all suffering—identification with them—such as the mind’s (ego’s) claims of ownership of experiences or thoughts, the attachment keep borning out of fear of losing them based on memories, or the escape from the fear of experiencing suffering that created by repeated stories in the head—we surrender all resistance of reality such as seeking permanence in mere impermanence.

This is due to utter stillness and clarity, and it means always being as that stillness in the present moment. With this clarity, we as the awareness continue to witness everything, surrendering all the “I-self” and yet, remaining a raw being.

It means continually seeing through the fact without rest that we don’t need to become anything, and also that there is no need to change anything, either inside or outside.

The truth is, in fact, raw life itself, at its simplest and most profoundest.

That is why the truth can never be seen or touched by the mind (ego) (which is nothing more than mere thoughts).

On the other hand, the moment the awareness realizes the truth, we will be struck by how simple the truth is, and at the same time, stonished to realize that until then, contrary to self-awareness that we have been seeing reality, we had not seen a single thing of truth.

This is because it realizes that all the interpretations and definitions of “I,” “you,” or “that person” that we had believed in, fear of losing something, or efforts by the “I” as a doer, or etc. were all illusions, and that there was no need to do anything.

At the same time, it also realizes that everything we see is the “I-self” (the mind’s projection), in fact, another manifestation of The Self through another form, as another part of indivisible wholeness, completeness.

In other words, it realize that all the time we had been fighting against mere phantoms (thoughts that are definitions, interpretations such as “I,” “you,” or “that person”).

There was no substance there.

No one we thought there were existed anywhere, and also whatever thoughts there were we cling with the mind (ego), they too were not true, but merely another thought.

Moreover, it realizes, even without doing anything we have stubbornly believed we needed, that the awareness that is pure existence itself has always been The Self, that very thing.

At that moment, all illusions collapse.

And then, as the next stage of awakening, when we as the awareness continue to fully surrender claim of ownership over experiences, including even such spiritual experiences, and also continue to completely detach the awareness from unconscious identification with the illusions, that is, when we continue to stop being taken prisoner by mere thoughts and emotions that appear and disappear one after another, all that remains is absolute reality of what is, stillness, serenity.

This is the very “non-self/pure existence, consciousness” that always exists far, far within the “I-self” that we think of as “I.”

And you are always That. (OM 🙏)
