So, notice
the aware presence
transparent
awareness
which effortlessly perceives
this perception
without in itself
being a perception
notice the silence
The Silence of Presence
within which
and out of which
this experience
arises
and is perceived
there is nothing which precedes
this silence
which is alive
which is aware
and yet completely still
with infinite potential
it is within this silence
that if thought appears
like a cloud appearing in the sky
it is in vain
that a thought
attempts to comprehend
the silence
but it is in the Stillness of thinking
when the Stillness of movement
that first silence can be
revealed
Which is Consciousness without objects
this silence is not the Silence of thought
Silence of the Mind
it is the silence
within which the Mind appears
4:55
within which the mind is based
initially the silence is apperceived as the space between two
thoughts the gap between thoughts
which is your presence
the point at which
an inhalation comes to an end
and an exhalation starts
so you can and gently inhale
and notice that there comes a point
of Stillness
at the end of the inhalation
at which point the exhalation starts
in fact this silence
is always
present
as the background of all experience
as the reality of all experience
and the experience of this silence is peace
which knows no opposite
it is in the Silence of presence
that we recognize ourself
10:11
there are no borders and no limits to this
silent presence
everything you need to know
is revealed
in this silence
as this silence
which is peace
and happiness
what you are looking for is between the words
not in the words
but in the silence that permeates the words
this silent aware presence is your reality
you are not defined by the movement which appears
to you
whichever form and shape
your mind takes
does not define you
you don’t need to get too preoccupied
with fixing your mind and fixing your experience
simply allow awareness to recognize itself
as you
as you reality
there is no need to imagine
somebody that is standing in the way
of this simple yet profound recognition
you can
let go of the past and the future
15:05
and allow yourself to be this
Timeless presence which you are
not in time
worries and concerns refer to time
me in the past
me in the future
while all around
you are just this
borderless presence
The Eternity of now
the body
the world
the mind
appeared the way
they appeared to you
they’re always pointing you
towards yourself
yourself being that
which perceives right now
which is not the body
not a male or female
perceiver
so you can tend to the body
tend to the mind
and situations that appear to you
from this place of freedom
appropriate response
depending on the situation
without imagining that there is something at stake
for somebody
you will find that shoe fits much better
18:46
than imagining yourself to be a limited personal self
