Be here NOW

[lightbeing]

To the ego,
the present moment hardly exists.
Only past and future are considered important.
This total reversal of the truth accounts for the fact
that in the ego mode the mind is so dysfunctional.
It is always concerned with keeping the past alive,
because without it - who are you?


- Eckhart Tolle

Rejoicing in nothing and knowing nothing...
are the true rejoicing and the true knowledge.

Do not seek fame. Do not make plans.
Do not be absorbed by activities.
Do not think that you know.
Be aware of all that is and dwell in the infinite.
Wander where there is no path.
Be all that heaven gave you,
but act as though you have received nothing.
Be empty, that is all.


- Chuang Tzu

People say "I want peace."
If you remove I (ego), and your
want (desire),
you are left with PEACE.

Life is a continuity always and always .
There is no final destination.. it is going towards.
just the pilgrimage ,just the journey in itself is life
not reaching to some point , no goal -just dancing and
being in pilgimage , moving joyously, without bothering
about eny destination .
What will you do by getting to a destination ?who has asked this! because everybody is trying to have some destination in life . But the implications.....
if you realy reach the destination of life , then what ..
no where to go ..
(from osho zen tarot ...( card the journey )

At the time the image was taken, Earth was 142 million kilometers (88 million miles) away.

We need quiet time to examine
our lives openly and honestly. . .
spending quiet time
alone gives your mind an opportunity
to renew itself and create order.

Card for the day (ordinaryness )osho zen tarot )

Ordinaryness
----------------
Somtimes it happens that you become one ,

in some rare moment .Watch the ocean, the tremendous

wildness of it - and suddenly you forget yor split ,your

schizophrenia you relax . Or moving in the himalayas , seeing the virgin snow

on the himalayan peaks, suddenly a coolness surrounds you and you need not

be false because there is no other human being to be false to. You fall together

whenever and whatsoever situation , you become one , a peace a happiness

a bliss surrounds you , arises in you , you feel fulfilled....

__________________________________________________ ______

im realy understanding this simpleness

the what is as it is ... the simplicity that my guru

talked to me of ... when he said its just to simple for you ...
the wonder of it all ... ( ordinaryness )...

[lightbeing]

People who take the time to be alone usually have depth,
originality, and quiet reserve.

This is for my deaR friend ....
but i thought it may be of interest (be without preference and ressistance )
to others ....

TOTALITY
-----------
Every moment
there is a possibility to be total
Whatsoever you are doing
be absorbed in it so utterly
that the mind thinks nothing
is just there , is just a presence
And more and more totality will
be coming .And the taste of totality
will make you more and more capable of being total.
And try to see where you are not total.
those are the moments which have to be dropped .
slowely slowely .when you are not total. whenevar you are in your head
thinking brooding calculating - you are not total
slowely slowely slip out of these moments . its just an old habit .
Habits dire hard . But they certainley die - if one persists ,they die .

for you my dear friend ...
also from osho Zen tarot ...card (totality )

[mudra]

WOW of course !
Total and undivided is when you are HERE NOW
Be one with what comes in front of you . Embrace it . Don't resist..
You then become the flow rather than the stumbling block
Spirit rather than matter .
One rather than two.

Thank you dear
Love from me

i am reading a book from osho right now called "Life, Love, Laughter - Celebrating Your Existence"

this poem is inspired from what i read today:



Don't look for the forest
There are only trees

Don't look for the hive
There are only bees

Don't look for love
Just share your heart

Don't look for beauty
Make life your art

Don't look for the truth
Just know that you are

Don't look for the light
Just shine like a star

Don't look for the one
God resides in each form

Don't look to be special
Be happy with the norm

Don't look for respect
Just follow the golden rule

Don't look for wisdom
Take chances like a fool

Don't look for answers
There is only mystery

Don't look to the past
Abide with no history

Don't look for money
Be the power you crave

Don't look to the future
It only leads to the grave

Don't look for guidance
Just plant a helpful seed

Don't look beyond the now
Awareness is all you need

peace,
mikey

[rhythm]

With practice of
present moment
awareness ,

the sence of stillness and peace will deepen
In fact there is no end to its depth. You will
also feel a subtle emanation of joy arising
from deep within
the joy of
being ...

(Tolle )

[lightbeing]

Focus attention on the feeling inside you.
Know that it is the pain-body.
Accept that it is there.
Don't think about it - don't let the feeling turn into thinking.
Don't judge or analyze.
Don't make an identity for yourself out of it.
Stay present, and continue to be the observer of what is happening inside you.
Become aware not only of the emotional pain but also of "the one who observes," the silent watcher.
This is the power of the Now, the power of your own conscious presence.
Then see what happens.


- Eckhart Tolle

When compulsive striving)

away from the now ceases

the joy of being

flows into everything you do.

The instant your attention

turns to the now

you feel a presence

a stillness, a peace .....

To be identified with your mind
is to be trapped in time:
the compulsion to live almost
exclusively through memory and anticipation.

When you surrender to what is

and become so fully present , the past ceases to have eny power .

You do not need it enymore .

presence is the key

the Now is the key ...

( lock n key ).....Tolle...

[bushycat]

Come out of the circle of time
And into the circle of love.
-Rumi

[rhythm]

Eny external conditions that are being resisted

tend to dissolve quickly thru surrender .

It is a powerfull transformer of situations and people.

If conditions do not shift immediatley, your acceptance of the now enables you

to rise above them . Either way , you are free ...

(Tolle...)

[lightbeing]

Women are special custodians of all that is pure and religious in life.

A woman’s intuition has often proved truer than man’s arrogant assumption of superior knowledge.

There is no occasion for women to consider themselves subordinate or inferior to men.

If by strength is meant moral power, then woman is immeasurably man’s superior.

If nonviolence is the law of our being, the future is with woman.

To call women the weaker sex is a libel; it is man’s injustice to woman.

- Ghandi

The way is not difficult

preferences ....
