If “I” is a process and not an entity, then there is no “I” to possess!

So in the ultimate reality, there is no “I” to possess things either.

Ownership is really just an agreement we make.

What if everything was just a process in time?  Geology teaches us even rocks and the earth are.  Astronomers teach us such is true with the planets and the stars.  Our bodies certainly are.

Maybe we are stewards entrusted to care for all that inhabits this world, temporarily here to care for it the best we can.

Here, I am afraid, we have a lot to learn, hopefully before it is too late!

“I”–the ego–is merely a constellation of relationships in our mind, in our being, that are constantly in flux around our center.

This is a case of mistaken identity.

“I” is really the center amidst the forces of life.  “I” am that–the marvelous and mysterious cosmology of the life force which is bliss.

Meditate to know that.  Then you will discover, over time, who you really are….

When subject and object merge, there is unity, yoga.

We melt into the bliss of nothingness to become everything.

The awareness of thinking is not thinking.

That which is aware of thoughts is the witness.

Our attention needn’t be captivated by our thoughts.

You are not your thoughts, but the witness of the thoughts.

The life force, the kundalini shakti, comes to us in an infinite array of disguises.

Meditation and yoga can often unmask them to reveal their light.

Yoga and meditation are like a giant leaf blower clearing away what no longer serves us.

In the center, there is peace, love, joy, and bliss.

Here the Hippie-dream is fulfilled!

 

The rational mind likes to explain and give reasons and judge.

The witness is merely present–without explanations or reasons why or judgements.  It openly accepts what is.

The rational mind helps us in innumerable ways with the business of living our lives.

The witness helps us love life and be in awe.

We need both to lead a full life!

Our center is the witness–not evaluating or analyzing or judging–just present, being with what is.

As we practice meditation and yoga, we become more frequently and easily absorbed in our center.

Absorbed in this dynamic yet still center, we lose ourselves to find ourselves and our true nature.
