“THE CHANGING AND THE UNCHANGING”

The world you inhabit is an accurate reflection of the concepts you hold—whether consciously or unconsciously.

This implies that if your concepts change, your world changes simultaneously.

So, what about you?

Is the “I” that you identify as “myself” not also undergoing change?

To be the “I” that shifts according to conditions means being perpetually swayed by ever-changing circumstances.

Does this not naturally lead to a state of suffering—fearing the unknown and worrying about the future?

Can such a state truly be called “pure presence”—something that transcends the narrative of “I,” thoughts?

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

Instead of thinking in search of answers or striving to become someone, please continue to inquire, observe, and examine the “I” (and into the source which is far beyond it)—all while asking profound questions, yet without making any judgments.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

The innermost stillness (peace, unconditional love, openness)—the pure presence—is not a silence in the brain at all that is made by stopping thoughts.

It is the vast space itself, where all changes (phenomena, environments, conditions, emotions, thoughts, experiences, memories, the narrative of “I”, etc.) arise. Thus, while it can recognize all of these impermanences, that innermost stillness remains undisturbed by any noise—whether external or internal (within the brain).

In other words, due to its completeness, pure presence never demands that people or the world live peacefully like the mind (the “I,” thought, the ego) claims, nor does it expect the love the mind (the “I,” thought, the ego) imagines; it passes no judgment whatsoever on any phenomenon.

Furthermore, this stillness is neither something the “I” acquires nor chooses. On the contrary, the “I” completely subsides into this stillness.

Just as relative dualities like “good and evil” (always requires a choice) and non-duality (wholeness, choicelessness, unconditionality) do not exist on the same plane, the silence in the brain and the innermost stillness cannot exist on the same dimension.

In other words, the “I” can never comprehend it.

In fact, everything that can be perceived is subject to change as impermanence—the so-called mundane world known to the “mind” (the “I,” thoughts, the ego)—whereas that which can never be perceived by this “I” is precisely the ever-present, omnipresent, which only awareness can directly and immediately know.

࿓࿓࿓࿓࿓

The moment awareness sees through the voice of the mind—the “I,” thought, the ego—claiming “I understand” (or “I know”) as nothing more than mere thought, the unconscious flow of identification (confusion) with the narrative of the “I” ceases.

In that instant, awareness will recognize that even sense of the self—which was previously confined within the narrative of the “I”—is instantly liberated and shifts into a vast, open space.

That innermost stillness is the true you—impersonal pure presence—the “I Am” that is divinity, far behind the narrative of the “I.”

Abide there.

It is not something the “I” achieves or acquires; nor is it any specific individual, or someone superior to some separate person.

It is the vast ocean itself, where there is no division and no separation; it is the emptiness itself as wisdom. (OM 🙏)
