Liberation is not something that happens to you.
Liberation already
is.
But for the individual who seeks
liberation
and/or
enlightenment
it is
believed
that
it
isn't.
The seeker thinks
and
believes
that
liberation
is an event that happens
in
time.
Liberation is
not
an event that happens in
time.
How could it be
when
Liberation already
when
Liberation already
is?
Liberation
is
Being.
Being
is
Liberation.
Being
is all there
is.
The
seeker
is
individuality.
The
seeker
is
separation.
When there is no longer a
seeker
all that remains is
being.
The
seeker
is
simply
seeking
what it already
is.
You
. . . are . . .
Liberation.
Aha!
. . . that's right, now stop chasing your tail!

Hah!
ReplyDeleteThat's 'aha' turned inside out! Which is what you do to our thinking!!! Great post.
too simple. I'm trying The Bible.
ReplyDeleteShinzen, thanks, but I simply find myself doing what was done to me.
ReplyDeleteIs it too simple as implied by our friend Ta Wan, tongue in cheek or not? The truth is too simple for the complicated 'individual' to understand; it is beyond understanding, but not beyond realization ;-)
Thanks Ta Wan, when 'trying' the bible be sure to 'try' hard, it'll probably get you nowhere, but maybe the eventual realization that you're still chasing your tail will bring you to a point of no longer 'trying'!
ReplyDeleteHey, just having a little tongue in cheek banter, ha, ha ;-)
I tried the Bible once...and other great religious books. I discovered they make great door stops!
ReplyDeleteDid you have a good attorney at the trie-all?
ReplyDelete;-)
Hahahaha1 I was going to make an good attorney joke but realized there aren't any.
ReplyDelete. . well that would account for the poor quality of my comment then!
ReplyDeleteLOL. I love the comments as much as the post!
ReplyDeleteDoug, a great post as always. I can relate. Looking at my life as a whole, everything combined has led me to my current perspective. It was not one single event that 'happened' to me. It is then easy to realize that I've always been the way I am but it takes the experience and attention to understand how.
Hi C. Om, thanks for passing through here once more, it's always great to have you meandering this way, ha, ha . .
ReplyDeleteNo events have happened to me, how could they have, there is NO me? Just nothing being everything, being nothing being everyt... ;-)
