Most people look to get something.
To seek happiness, pleasure.
To acquire knowledge.

But it is this very wanting and seeking
that causes you suffering.

The very desire for life to be different than it is
causes you suffering.

To try and change your thoughts and say
“I am happy how it is now”
does nothing.

For it is not the thought
it is not even the desire,
it is the one that desires,
that claims the thoughts
that is the entire problem.

This you that separates yourself
from everything else.

To be free,
you must simply be aware
of what is here.

To notice what is here
in this moment.

There are thoughts arising,
there are sensations arising,
there is this experience of now.

To accept this moment as it is,
to allow yourself to experience it completely,
to be aware of the thoughts arising rather
than becoming the thoughts,
then this “you” is no more.

The moment you are completely present,
completely allowing of yourself to be as you are,
you are no more.

Because this “you” exists
only as a resistance to this moment.
It exists to control the moment,
change the moment,
judge the moment.

But as soon as you
are in complete acceptance
of what is here.

The resistance is gone,
you as you know yourself to be is gone,
and there simple is.

Life is as it is,
awareness and is-ness
is the same.

No separation,
no resistance,
no mind.

You are freedom itself
awareness itself
being, consciousness, love.

You cannot know this with the mind.
It must be awakened in you.
