Seeking the Truth


The idea of ‘seeking the Truth’ is itself illusory because it implies ‘somebody’ seeking ‘something’ separate from itself or in itself. And thus teachers and schools emerge giving practices, paths and goals to achieve. Can you achieve your Self? You ARE your Self! It’s only when the wrong ideas of finding or achieving something fall away that the Reality remains uncovered from the illusions. Until our attention is absorbed in ideas, concepts, forms and feeling, it won’t go ‘back’ or ‘merge back’ in the unspeakable, still Absolute which is the essence behind all.

Until it is intuitionally realised that the world including the subject or the individual who perceives it together with the perception of the world and thoughts, appear and disappear all together in consciousness at the presence of the Absolute, there will still be a sense of duality or subject-object. Until all concept about who we are and about the world are investigated fully and realised as perceptions hold together in memory and thus not independently existent apart from who perceives them, the awareness of the absolute from the absolute will not happen. Even the latter will be in consciousness; behind it there are no concepts or experiences. When the attention ‘stops’ in this awareness then the Absolute ‘sees’ itself on the mirror of consciousnesses as presence or existence.
