Perceiving with the eyes of God


Magdi Badawy, 05-01-2024

Hello, everyone.
Lovely to be with you.

So welcome yourself
as this mysterious presence,
awareness.

Always available.

This borderless openness,
the mystery of being,
the reality of being,
not a story in time and space.

But this vast,
effortless presence.

Know yourself as that,
the reality which perceives,
the reality which is
beyond that which is perceived,
beyond thought,
beyond memory.

Not defined
by thought,
by belief.

Know yourself as
that formless presence,
which is aware,
aware that it is,
aware that it is aware.

Not a personal entity.
Not an object.
Not any particular form,
which is born.

So rise to your true Self,
to your high understanding.

Everything which appears,
the song of the birds,
gentle breath,
thoughts and memories,
bodily sensations arise to
this vastness,
this aware vastness,
which is you.

What is it to perceive
with the eyes of god?

With universal eyes,
impersonal eyes.

What is it to be the universe perceiving?
What is it to be undefined, perceiving?

There are no borders
to such a perceiving
because it’s not in time,
it’s in this eternal presence,
Being.

Without any separation,
because
God’s love is infinite.

Everything is loved equally.
Like the sunshine
shines onto all the moons equally.

It’s the same source,
the same light,
the same awareness.

The understanding that
everything is the self,
everything is consciousness,
everything is God,
everything is love.

And we are that.
The expression of that,
and we express that.

We feel
the love,
the compassion,
the understanding
that the other is myself.

The understanding that
separation is an old download,
a mind impression, which I identify with.

But it’s possible
to let go of this identification,
to recognize everything as myself,
because
there is no separation in our experience.

The fact that we use names,
and forms, and concepts
does not mean that there is separation.

It’s simply a functional way of speaking.

So we can sink deeper and deeper
into not-knowing,
not even knowing
what sinking deeper and deeper
in not-knowing is.

In truth, and
in love, and
in reality
we are one.

All is one.

And in this waking dream,
so many opportunities
to live,
to express, and
to manifest
this understanding.

Live it.

To invite yourself
for that understanding to live itself
and express itself
in your life,
in your thinking,
in your feeling,
in your acting,
in your perceiving.

So that you can live
according to God’s will.

You are that will.

The understanding that
you are
formless,
borderless,
edgeless
awareness.

This understanding is yours.
Not a passing thought,
but that is what you are,
formless reality.

And this body mind instrument
is your manifestation
to express and
to demonstrate this understanding.

Like the sunshine
demonstrates and
expresses
the light and the warmth,
by its very nature.
