“AS AWARENESS”

As we turn our attention inward, observing and inquiring deeply, starting from our own words and reactions and going down toward source of existence by fundamental questions—we begin to notice the various “unconscious assumptions” we have long held.

At that point, we step away from the mind’s (ego’s) surveillance, which disguises as observation through the awareness but actually needing to control everything with harsh criticism rooted in various values, and, for the first time, we are finally capable of observation and witnessing as the awareness that is free from all judgment and comparison.

The facts reveales then—seeing through exactly as they are—no longer trigger even a reflexive self-defensive reaction.

In this way, as the awareness naturally embraces facts exactly as they are through the openness of it, a quiet compassion also comes up.

Thus—not through effort, but naturally and surely—the constructed notion of “self” is dismantled and dissolved (let go, surrender) as its falseness and lack of foundation are clearly seen through.

Consequently, we no longer try to become someone, without any efforts to be “good people” or compassionate “doers,” but we simply embrace and compassion toward society and others as they are without any judgment or criticism in the same way, because there becomes no division between the self and others.

Moreover, in doing so, even resistance we unknowingly have toward reality as it is naturally fades away.

This is because the ego—which reflexively needs self-protection—is no longer present, even if it’s only a part of it.

At the same time, the inner stillness and serenity directly reveal to the awareness—with undeniable certainty—that this is the essence.

We as the awareness will come to realize that this pure sense of heart felt at the level of the soul, the sense of a revival of returning to spiritual home, transcending physical life and death, becomes increasingly clear and naturally illuminates the path ahead, only when we simply resting with inner stillness, not through the clamor of thoughts and emotions or by clinging to experiences as “mine” and without even struggling against that noise.

In time, we as the awareness will come to comprehend directly what “unconditional love” and “compassion” purely mean—immediately know it as genuinely, totally unconditional, far beyond the realm of mere intellectual or conceptual knowledge held by the mind.

This unconditional love and compassion arise spontaneously when we effortlessly rest in itself as the pure awareness, wholeness, completeness which is absolutely no division between self and others, as non-self—transcending differences of age, gender, race, nationality, religion, or even the boundaries between Earth and the cosmos.

It is an infinite profundity that the mind (ego, thoughts) can never achieve.

Yet, remaining in this awareness of openness and wholeness—simply existing as pure awareness—requires no effort whatsoever.

For this is the very essence— impersonal being, transcends individual—and it is ever-present, right here and now.

What is required is never on “doership”-such as how many spiritual teachings you know, how correctly you understand them, or how many years you have spent practicing. Instead, it is about completely stepping away from that sense of being the “doer.” It is required turn attention inward, clearly recognizing through the clarity of the innermost stillness as the awareness every minor misperception of your own—such as identifications, assumptions, or beliefs—and ultimately, seeing through the fundamental, major misperception of falseness and lack of foundation, such as the conviction that “this ego is who I am” without a single doubt or the blind belief that “separation is reality.” (OM 🙏)
