Enlightenment, special?

Enlightenment is the ultimate disappointment, if you are looking for something "special".

It's amazing what happens when thought is seen for what it is.

What is Enlightenment?

According to Ramesh's concept, Enlightenment or Self Realisation is the total realisation that no one is a doer.

The doorway to your being is whatever is in this moment....this moment...this moment.

The First Instant

The First Instant is this ever-present actuality - which is nothing other than the boundless being-ness of what you truly are. You cannot move away from this instant and you never have been anywhere other than right here 'in' and 'as' this one and only first instant.

This, as a concept, is considerably challenging even though the actuality of its obviousness is undeniable for anyone that really examines the present evidence of what is immediately appearing as the world and its nature.

From the individual perspective, one's whole life has been a never-ending appearance and disappearance of objects in and around one and this has never been anything other than this immediate living-ness, this first instant.

Open hand

Learn to live as an "open hand" instead of a "fist". The old mind know nothing about real trust - total nakedness. It only know hope and fear. The open hand is total unconditional trust.

Open hand.

Enlightenment is not some final product that "you can have".

Nukunu

Amen to that.

We are always on the right place to the right time.

“One night the king dreamt that he was going to die the next day precisely at 8 p.m. In despair he called together all his wise men and asked them what to do. They suggested that he should saddle the fastest horse in the kingdom and ride away as quickly as he could. He followed their advice and rode as fast as he could.

He rode and rode until the horse was ready to drop. When they reached a big forest, the horse couldn’t take one more step and the king jumped off relieved and freed of his fear. That very moment Death stepped out from the shadow of a tree and said, ”I was just about to get worried whether you would be in time!”

We are always on the right place to the right time. It just can’t be different.

"to be what is, as it is". In this simple understanding the mind stops fighting itself. In a moment of no fight, the truth reveals itself in its simplicity and purity. It is a wordless answer that silences the mind forever.
