DRIFTING BOAT

Image
When we are identified with our thoughts, since this identification hides the access to BEING in us, we are no more vertically rooted into Reality's essence and we feel lost. This is why as to reassure ourself we seek an horizontal anchor into society which, made of people as disconnected as we are, allows us seeing our insanity as normality. The more we are the truer our fabricat ed vision seems. This generalized co-dependency starts very early in the child's life who innocently believes, and needs de believe, the adults know what they do and where they are going. Since we are drifting en masse we don't realize that our collective wander and ramble just goes nowhere. Driven by the hidden current of our inner pulsions which ask always for more symbolic satisfactions, we condemn the rules which we declared right yesterday, without asking if our today's rules will be declared wrong tomorrow ? As to evade this disturbing question we have a word whi

PAIN IS KEY

Image
Nothing else can expell us from Reality than pain when it is too big to be consciously encountered. When a pain remains unresolved, because too big to be encountered, it represents the one psychological disease which resurgence may manifest itself through a vast variety of symptoms, both physical and psychological, and this according to the context. Psychologists are hypnotized by the symptoms which they endlessly study, analyse, name and classify into different categories, forgetting their common source: pain. When pains, too big to be consciously felt and faced, intrude our nevrax, our organism expells us from the field in us they have contaminated and this, even before their lethal impact with consciousness. When we lose access to our wounded Real self, we find shelter in a cognitive and fake self, made of thoughts with which we identify. This identification implies that we are unconsciously disconnected from Reality's essence in us. As long as this th

JOY

JOY. WHEN YOU SUCCEED RETURNING TO BEING IN YOU - WHICH IS MET AT THE ALWAYS RENEWED TIP OF THE PRESENT INSTANT - SINCE BEING IS INTRINSICALLY JOY, THEN YOU ARE IN JOY IN YOURSELF. SAID DIFFERENTLY YOU ARE ENJOYING YOURSELF. Patrick Ali @amiableSingh

SPIRITUAL PRACTICE.

Thoughts are not the right tool for grasping Reality's essence or BEING in us. We ARE Reality. We experience Reality as our own BEING. We cannot "think" Reality, it is just impossible. So, the first step is to learn how to stop thinking. This allows us to dis-cover BEING, or Reality in us, directly, and not camouflaged with our thoughts. Now, the only spot where we meet with Reality is the Present Instant. The Present Instant's tip is so constantly renewed that it is too short for thoughts to be generated and they stop altogether. This tip is in fact so short that its duration reaches ZERO, or INFINITY's doorway. There, we experience Reality's INFINITE essence as who we ARE .. and we witness it all around us, expressing itself through everything and everyone. Therefore, remaining at the tip of the Present Instant is necessary and sufficient as a full spiritual practice. The rest is the different techniques, as many as they are, through t

DISTRACTING FROM WHAT ?

Our CO2 emissions are rising every year and have already reached 400 ppm. Yet, while we do not find the financing for a change of energy, which is crucial for Humankind, and there's no time left, we spend every year thousands and thousands of billion dollars for our amusements and distrations of all kinds, including sport, tourism, music, movies, DVDs, computergames and te chnological gadgets, but also products that disconnect us from Reality like alcohol, drugs, antidepressants, etc., etc. The question is: from what do we need to distract ourselves so much that we jeopardize Humankind's survival for that ? The answer is, there are pains too big to be consciously encountered mostly by the fetus, the new born baby and the young child. These pains remain hidden in us, unresolved, and disconnect us from our inner Reality they have contaminated. Since then on we find refuge into a fake self, made of thoughts with which we identify. Yet, doing so, we lose access

DISCONNECTION FROM REALITY.

DISCONNECTION FROM REALITY.  We know Global Warming and Climate Change are climbing to dangerous levels notably with CO2 emissions reaching 400 ppm, we know two Earth will be necessary to feed Humankind by 2030, yet nobody cares and our CO2 emissions continue rising year after year in a generalized indifference. Humankind is only interested in football, tennis, porn, the new Transformers and the Iphone 6. The planetary neurosis is in full swing. Patrick Ali @amiableSingh
