About a month back I was driving home and suddenly I realized I had no idea what on earth was going on.
The cars in front of me don’t exist, so what is happening?
Distance doesn’t exist, so where am I going?
I don’t exist, so who is driving?
It wasn’t some sort of philosophic concept that these things don’t exist, but a spontaneous realization that just appeared within consciousness, as if one just saw through the smoke and mirrors, seeing nothing on the other side.
It feels like the mind itself is unraveling.
This physical world doesn’t seem to make any sense. Only silence does.
Memory is starting to not function very well, and I used to have a great memory. It’s like a return to purity without a lifetime’s worth of collected baggage. What’s necessary in the moment is always provided. Always. The past isn’t necessary and so the fact that it’s falling away is really of no concern.
Illusion is being stripped away. There’s still some mental capacity happening, but much of what’s left of it is just this state of confusion and desire to figure things out.
However, it’s nothing to figure out and all that can be done is to let go.
Let go of knowing, of trying to know, of desiring to know in the first place.
Abide in the silence of not knowing, of purely beingness itself.
One of the main aspects of spiritual growth is the realization that you actually ARE the reality you previously thought you lived IN.
For example, at first, we feel that we find love by getting it from other people. When we feel loved by others, that is when we experience love.
Then we can move to a state where we are literally “in love” with someone. It’s literally like you and I are bathing within the warm glow of love itself.
And then we find that this Love can actually be experienced with everyone and everything. This Love then becomes unconditional. We become “in love” with it All!
Yet once we start inquiring as to where this Love actually comes from in the first place, we realize that it’s not coming from outside of us at all! It’s actually coming from within. The Source of Love is within.
Dive down even further and you’ll realize that not only is the Source within you, but you actually ARE this Source. You ARE Love itself. Everything you say, everything you do, and everything you are is simply a physical expression of the Love that you are.
Ascension is realizing that you actually ARE the reality you previously thought you lived IN.
You don’t exist in physical reality. Physical reality exists WITHIN YOU! You ARE physical reality!
The outer world is TOTALLY an illusion. It’s not real. What’s real is the EXPERIENCE you’re having and the experience you have in physical reality is directly related to your thoughts, beliefs, and frequency of vibration.
There is no physical reality outside of you.
There is no physical reality outside of you.
THERE IS NO PHYSICAL REALITY OUTSIDE OF YOU.
Let this sink in. There is no physical reality outside of you!
At all!!
What you are seeing outside of you is a projection of your vibrational state, a reflection of your deepest thoughts and beliefs.
What happens out in the world DOES NOT MATTER. That is, it does not determine who you are, nor does it control your state of being. In fact, the reverse is true. It is your vibrational state, determined by your thoughts and beliefs, which determines how you experience physical reality. It is your state of being that determines what matters, what materializes for you in physical reality.
What does Non-duality mean in the first place? It means that there are “not two” different things. Really it is all One, even two seemingly separate and different things. In essence they are truly One. Completely. Totally.
In the Buddhist tradition, Nirvana is basically the state of enlightenment, heaven, oneness with God. It is karmic completion to where you no longer need to embody here on earth.
Samsara is the unenlightened state of consciousness whereby you continue to reincarnate and play here on earth to realize who you truly are.
Nirvana and Samsara are the same, but only identically the same.
-Zen Koan
Of course they’re the same. There IS nothing else!
Becoming One
We start by living in a world of separation in this lifetime and seek, through various religious or spiritual practices, to attain a true sense of Oneness with God.
There are numerous ways of doing this. The path I personally advocate is through withdrawing attention from the illusion (thought and the external world) and surrendering it all away to God, as discussed previously. Negate the validity of the mind and focus on the Self, for what you focus on expands.
Realize the Self with a capital S. This is called Self-realization.
The world is then recognized to be totally an illusion and unreal. This physical world feels limited and finite due to the limitations of the mind, yet beyond the illusory dream of physical reality lies the Infinite, the boundless and unlimited Reality which is the Truth of your being. In Hinduism, this infinite reality is called Brahman.
There is a perfect saying which I’m going to paraphrase, which really gets to the heart of non-duality.
The world is illusion.
Brahman alone is real.
The world is Brahman.
It sounds paradoxical, and it is, yet this is how existence is structured.
So appreciate everything in the Universe for every one and every thing you see actually IS God. Not just an aspect of Divinity or a part of Divinity, but literally the same infinite Love of Creation itself. Everything you see is God, appearing to express itself as this or that.
This physical world, just like the human ego that we all have, is not something to be escaped from, nor something to be destroyed, but something to simply disidentify with.
The Process
We first learn to disassociate from everything that is not us including thoughts, ideas, our body, our history, and so on, only to ultimately loop back around and realize that it is all “you”. It’s not that you are either this OR that, but rather this AND that. There is nothing ‘else’ in existence but you for it is all One. There can not be anything other than you. This is the essence of non-duality.
To be honest, this whole site is starting to seem like a humorous joke, just like everything else in duality, as well as all other beliefs.
The content of this post is not anything to be believed in or not believed in. It’s just a hint of what’s to come if you choose to drop all beliefs entirely. ALL beliefs.
Rest in the mystery of the unknown, the silence, the infinite nothingness beyond name and form.
A Personal Note
I don’t expect anyone to believe this, nor do I actually want anyone to. I’m sitting here laughing at the absurdity of duality.
Without giving attention or thought to the outside world, it feels like everything is starting to fade once again from physicality to oneness. Everything that’s looked at is the One. Separateness is Oneness. It’s true non-duality. This is starting to come up BECAUSE the beliefs are all being let go of, as well as all attachment and clinging. It’s pretty wild…
Words feel like they’re of no use, no value. It’s more like resting back in a silent bliss.
Imagine you were an actor who really wanted to get into a part. You put on a mask, a costume, a new voice, even a new personality, and walk onto stage completely transformed on the outside, acting like a completely new person. Let’s say, for the sake of simplicity, that you put on this peapod costume and rolled out onto the stage.
The actor within is obscured in favor of this temporary persona, this image that the actor is pretending to be.
Now imagine that you, as this actor, were always up on stage and every role you played was just another costume, another persona. None of the personas or emotions you act out have anything to do with you. They’re just something you’re putting on, acting out, and displaying to the audience.
Let’s call this actor your True Self, your True Nature. Now, this Self just is what it is. It’s not one of the roles that’s played. It’s not a costume at all.
You already are what you are at your core, yet for whatever reason, you’d like to temporarily become something else in order to play a particular part and see what it’s like to be something you’re not. A little variety is nice sometimes, y’know?
What do you do if you want to make these new qualities really seem like who you truly are? What do you do if you want to forget your True Nature and completely BECOME your new personality, as if you were living another life altogether?
You’d have to assign a certain sense of ownership to the various external attributes and you make them your own. “This is now who I am. It is who I am. I am this. It defines me.”Read More …
Lately there’s been intuitive inner guidance to study higher dimensions of reality, beyond the 3 dimensions we live in.
A number of my wonderful friends have provided me with videos and information regarding higher dimensions. I’ve been jumping into that head first and allowing “myself” to be guided to wherever this takes me. For some reason, the idea of higher dimensions is extraordinarily exciting to me.
Now, I’ve never been particularly excited about geometry, but studying these shapes have been monumentally exciting so I’m going with it. I trust the excitement like a compass needle showing me where to go.
We all live in all dimensions, but we’ve forgotten about this and forgotten how to access higher dimensions. It’s nothing special. It’s just remembering. Same thing as remembering who we really are.
Here’s a quick lesson, much of which was sparked by my recent explorations and then interwoven with my own understandings. It may start off seeming relatively innocuous, but the spiritual ramifications it leads to are profound! So with no further ado… Read More …
Let’s round off this variety pack of topics, concluding Part 1 and Part 2 of this series.
Fears
“So do you have any fear? Are you totally free?”
Fear, yes. Is it believed or taken seriously? No.
The mind and the ego still exists, but it’s not taken seriously, just the same.
Enlightenment Fixing Life’s Problems
The funny thing is that it was always thought that this would always be the end-all-be-all solution to all problems. Life would be perfect. Everything would magically fix itself. All “problems” would fix themselves..
You know… “Yeah, I’ll just go get enlightened and my problems will all magically be solved.”
NOT TRUE
What happens is that One realizes the true silliness of all that was thought to be a problem, and it’s no longer a problem anymore because it’s not actually real.
Nothing changes on the outside, no one magically appears, including any angels descending from the heavens. Only the Self says “Hello, here I am. I’ve always been here. It’s good to see myself again. I’ve been pretending I’ve been someone else. It took a lot of energy to do it. It’s good to be home.”
Nothing changes externally.
It is an internal shift from illusion to Reality. That’s ALL.

I feel like a proud new father seeing his first YouTube video baby going up online. 
It feels like the mind itself is unraveling.
