Seaching for a Teacher

About seaching for a teacher, Francis Lucille, from my point of view, says something worth concider;

"Stick to the best available teaching. If you are seeking water, it is better to keep digging at the spot which seems the most suitable rather than to dig shallow little holes everywhere. We should find the teacher whose teaching we feel to be the best according to our heart and intelligence, and follow him/her for as long as we feel that way. We should choose our teacher for this reason alone, not for convenience such as proximity, access, gender, tradition, etc… We should honor the Truth buy seeking the best teacher. We cannot buy the Truth on sale."

Bhagavad-Gita Quotes

"It is indeed impossible for an embodied being to renounce action, but he who has renounced the fruits of his action is said to be truly non-attached."

"Bound by your own Karma born of your nature, you will do that very thing which your ignorance seeks to avoid."

"It is indeed impossible for an embodied being to renounce action, but he who has renounced the fruits of his action is said to be truly non-attached."

"No action will create any bondage for the individual who has the total understanding and acceptance that no individual can do any action (that every action can originate only in the source, according to a Cosmic Law)."

Eckhart TolleQuotes

-"It is not by resisting or running away from, but by that deep act of surrender that the divine is realized. And that amazingly does not take time. Surrender can only be now."

-"When 'my' and 'thy' merge, there is total surrender; your will is one with the totality."

-"If you have not found that which is timeless or formless in yourself, then nothing that you manifest will satisfy yourself."

-"The significance is hiding in the insignificant. Appreciate everything."

-"You get a stronger sense of who you are in your essence when you are not telling yourself who you are in your head."

-""The strange and beautiful thing about now is that it never leaves you and it doesn't change, the field of now. Because the essence of now is the unconditioned consciousness, the field in which all phenomena happen."

-- "Honor the now and any form that comes and goes with it. If you honor the now, whatever form this takes is also honored."

-"Remember, from time to time, to notice... that you are breathing."

-"Let go of who you think you are and you will realize who you are in your essence: the presence behind..."

Robert Powell: "All is intangible"

Consider this non dual quote from Robert Powell

"Ultimately all is intangible, that is, of the nature of thought or consciousness. And there is nothing more concrete or durable than that. We may therefore view experience as a movement in consciousness. As we shift into deeper levels of being, all differentiation disappears, and all that remains as existence is consciousness......once we have had a taste of this real freedom, this limitless realm of the Self, there can be no turning back to illusory entities that defile and threaten our true integrity and peace of being."

"The Mind is it's own Prison"

God never close a door without opening a window. He always give us some thing better when he takes something away.

Not in the words

A good idea before entering a dialog around Non-duality is to remember that the subject is not in the words. It cannot bespoken of in the deepest sense. Naturaly the question about the meaning of it all arises. Is it meaningful to have a such conversation? Maybe it is up to each one of us to answer that question. If you try to find out in the words what the conversation is all about, you go nuts. Frustration appears. Confusion. But then, remember again that it is not IN the words. And still...

We are not outside of it...it is just not In the words.

Happy New Year to you all out there.
