The Pseudomorph... 1Yogi2Many is just another Changling; he's morphed into the unfolding . . .

     I'd like to bring to your attention the unfolding of another blog: The Unfolding. I've only just got this going, it's still in first gear, put together for the new year (have a happy one people), so I'd love some help getting it through the gears and into fifth - please!

Here is my latest blog post on The Unfolding:

***

Seek-A-Smile!

     In our last post we were talking about Ramana Maharshi's statement, "You are already what you seek", but the question I'm asking now is, is that true?

Well now, first of all are you a seeker? You may well be a new seeker for all I know, or an old seeker, or no seeker at all - hey, first up - what is a Seeker?

A seeker, as far as we are concerned here on this particular blogpost, is someone whoseeks to know and understand the truth of life; they're generally perceived to be seekers of enlightenment or liberation etc. (and that'll do as far as I'm concerned).

It has been said that we are all seeking enlightenment, even those of us whom think we are not, because in our quest for personal pleasure, love and success some teachers have implied that what we are really, or truly, looking for is a deeper reality, which is said to be enlightenment/liberation. So, in that sense we are all said to be seeking.

I used to be one, a seeker. In the early days I started out as a new seeker, but with time I got older and became a slightly older seeker, these days I no longer seek; I'm an Old Non-Seeker! Why?

Why am I no longer seeking to become enlightened, is it because I am now enlightened? No - no, not at all, well not on a personal level - that's for sure ha, ha, and that's because there's no such thing as personal enlightenment! If there's such a thing as enlightenment it is discovered beyond the person and the personal . . .

I would say that I am self-realised, but what does that mean? Self-realisation is simply a light-bulb moment when the real 'I' is real-i-sed! The twist of irony here is that the real 'I' is NO I at all! In fact, this moment of real-I-isation is the end of all I think I am, and thus the end of that which seeks anything outside of what I already am . . . which is?

Good question! What one is, when one realises what one really is, is pretty close to nothingness, for want of a better label. Another label, you want another label? Okay, how about Being, any good to you? Or Oneness maybe? Fact is, well, words don't really fit here - not perfectly anyway, and that's because what one is, is in fact beyond labels and labelling. It is what is left when the need to label everything has dissipated from within you.

All of this can sound very confusing - explaining it is so simple (smirk); maybe you need to know that all there is, in reality (which is real-I-ty) is what is unfolding as this present moment. And this present moment is all there is, ahemmm . . .

. . . hopefully you're Smiling now!

I'm Not Buying It . . .

Whatever 

You Buy Into 

Totally...  

...That's 

What You 

Get!

. . . I'll have a slice of Jesus Cake please . . .

Would I Lie To You? Trust me, I Wouldn't . . .

Every 

Time you lie, 

You make yourself 

Less wonderful than you really 

Are!

Never Trust someone who starts off by saying,
"Trust me . . ."

1Lie2Many

Fears Death Knell

Seeking only finds

Something that is not what is,

For what is cannot be looked for

It is already here...

The end of distortion

The death of fear,

Clarity of perception

Oh so clear!

There Is No Path

When you

Merge

with the 

Path, 

The Path 

Vanishes

and

All that's left

is

This!

1Path2Find

 The Obstacle is the path. 

- Zen Proverb.

. . . what path? Exactly . . .

Who Am I?

The Real 

'I' 

Real-'i'-sed 

is 

No 

'I' 

at all.

0Yogi-at-all!

Sweet Felicity of Life...

Oh sweet felicity

Abiding here in me,

Bliss beyond compare

For this life

Without a care,

Ensconced within

This vibrational electricity

A willingness to share,

Free-flowing Serendipity.

Wisdom?

"Those whom think themselves wise . . .

. . . are unwise to do so."

The Indifferent Moment

Once conceived

What's focused on

Can be achieved;

Positive or negative

Are simply opposite positions,

Don't be deceived,

Where your attention is

Doesn't even have to be

Joyously Believed! 

What's acknowledged

Becomes reality

Emotional attachment

Like a hook of intent

Makes Conception an inevitability . . .

. . and so,

The Moment Unfolds

Indifferently.

1IndifferentMoment2Many 

Okey, be warned . . the truth may hurt, but the moment is totally indifferent, it simply unfolds accordingly; meaning? Well, what one has in one's life, right now, is what one has acknowledged to oneself that one is truly worthy of.

You can't fool consciousness (The Moment), it simply unfolds according to what you 'believe' or 'acknowledge' to be real or true for you. It will unfold as your greatest fears (regardless of all your protestations to the contrary), if those fears are greater than your greatest desires; therefore your fears will manifest!

"What you acknowledge is what you get!" 

. . . There's no escape clause here . . . 

Think About It!

The 

Secret 

is 

Not 

To 

Negate Thought, 

but to 

be 

Totally Aware

of all 

Aspects 

of 

Thought.

1Thought2Many?

Bear Judgement

If 

you stop 

Judging others 

. . . maybe . . . 

you'll find the time 

to 

take a close look 

at 

Yourself.

Not that I'm judging anyone here!

1JudgementalYogi2Judge?

Don't judge this Yogi's dancing

too quickly, after all, 

he's got Bear feet!
