Suddenly as if out of nowhere, the whole world appears to have become introspective, if not soul-searching. Such an awakening of conscience can’t be all bad. 🤔
~ Frank Johnson
Even trivial worldly happiness is joy of God, Brahman
आनन्दाभ्यासयोगाद्विकृतजगदानन्दजगतो
अतो हेतोर्धर्मो न भवति शिवः कारणपरः।
हिरण्यात्माssदित्येsक्षिणि उदेतीह भगवान्
नतेश्चाधाराणां श्रवणवचनैर्गोपितधियः।।
To the one who can ‘see’, even the trivial
worldly happiness appears as the joy of
Brahman. For such there is no prop and
standard other than Siva and Self, the
cause of the lofty and the petty alike.
The sun, the illuminator and energizer
of the worlds, appears dawning beyond
the yonder horizon, when in reality it
is in the eye [the figurative I]
of the Knower.
Attention to the spiritual aspirants:
Resist the temptation of re coursing
to loud, exhibitory and ‘clever’ exercises
to reach the all-impregnating Almighty
who is verily the embodiment of peace,
simplicity, unostentatious love and
sweet quiescence. Worship him with
noiseless prayer, quiet joy, guileless
affection, supreme peace and total
self-effacement and you shall
see Him losing to you
in all fullness.
The Ribhu Gita
[Shri Siva Rahasyam]
Do not be in conflict with yourself -RAdams
Do not be in conflict with yourself
Do not be in conflict with your thoughts and the self. When there is no conflict there are no thoughts. Thoughts only appear because there’s conflict. By conflict I mean, you’re worrying about getting rid of your thoughts, you’re doing sadhana, meditation, pranayamas, japa. All of these things cause conflict.
For aren’t you saying, ‘I’m doing these things to become liberated. I’m doing these things to become free.’ The reason there’s a the conflict is because you’re already free and liberated. Therefore when you give yourself the information that you have to do something to become liberated, there is immediately conflict.

YOU HAVE TO LEAVE YOUR PRINCIPLES AND FOLLOW ME. GO ON LIVING IN THIS WORLD OR DO YOU HAVE THE COURAGE TO CLEAR OUT ALL YOU THOUGHT TO BE TRUE? IT’S THAT SHARP A CLEAVAGE.
PRINCIPLES OF THE INFINITE WAY VS. SOLVING A PROBLEM.
WIPE OUT ALL THE OLD BOTTLES.
THAT’S WHAT SEPARATED ME FROM ALL TEACHINGS. I WASN’T INTERESTED IN TEACHINGS, I WAS INTERESTED IN THE PRINCIPLES OF LIFE.
Healings especially when sometimes there are and sometimes there are not don’t prove that there is a God because God is no respecter of persons. What I meant rested in finding God Who doesn’t change from day-to-day. And for that I realized I needed to go into a different realm, a dimension of life that doesn’t require physical might or mental power. This is why Jesus allowed himself to be crucified.
NO ONE INCLUDING THE DISCIPLES WAS WILLING TO GIVE UP THEIR HEBREW LAWS OF BAPTISM, CIRCUMCISION, DIETARY RESTRICTIONS. FINALLY YEARS LATER PETER DID.
YOUR BODY WHICH WAS GIVEN AS AN INSTRUMENT BY GOD WILL NOW BE GOVERNED BY YOU AND NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
You will take no thought and let God govern the universe including your body.
GOD GAVE YOU DOMINION. WHEN YOU ENTER THE SPIRITUAL PATH YOU TAKE THIS DOMINION. DON’T LET IT TELL YOU WHAT IT WANTS: YOU TELL IT.
THERE’S A PERIOD OF TRAINING. YOU NEED TO GIVE UP YOUR ABILITY TO JUDGE AND HATE PEOPLE: THEY’RE ONLY CONCEPTS. THE SAME IS TRUE RE. HEALING: YOU CAN’T SEE SICKNESS, SIN, LACK. YOU DON’T CHANGE THE PERSON OR MAKE THEM SEE DIFFERENTLY: YOU NEED TO SEE CORRECTLY YOURSELF. GIVE UP BELIEVING IN APPEARANCES.
To Whom Does This Thought Arise? Not my true Self. -RM
What is the means for constantly holding on to the thought ‘Who am I?’
When other thoughts arise, one should not pursue them, but should inquire:
‘To whom do they arise?’
It does not matter how many thoughts arise. As each thought arises, one should inquire with diligence,
“To whom has this thought arisen?”.
The answer that would emerge would be “To me”.
Thereupon if one inquires “Who am I?”,
the mind will go back to its source;
and the thought that arose will become quiescent.
With repeated practice in this manner, the mind will develop the skill to stay in its source.
When the mind that is subtle goes out through the brain and the sense-organs, the gross names and forms appear;
when it stays in the heart, the names and forms disappear.
Not letting the mind go out, but retaining it in the Heart is what is called “inwardness” (antar-mukha).
Letting the mind go out of the Heart is known as “externalisation” (bahir-mukha). Thus, when the mind stays in the Heart, the ‘I’ which is the source of all thoughts will go, and the Self which ever exists will shine.
Whatever one does, one should do without the egoity “I”. If one acts in that way, all will appear as of the nature of Siva (God).

End misery by ending false I -RM
Search for the source of
the ‘I’-thought. That is all one
has to do. The universe exists
on account of the ‘I’-thought.
If that ends, there is an end
to misery also. The false ‘I’
will end only when its
source is sought.

Do you believe that is God’s word? -JSG
“Now we come to that place of recognition. Do you believe that this was the word of God? Do you believe that this was true? Do you believe that this was the Word as it is given to us in scripture? Do you believe that this is the very message that our Master was giving on the shore of Galilee? Do you believe that he was saying at that time the same truth you are reading here that you have water within your own being that is greater than all the water that is in Jacob’s well?”
Joel Goldsmith, “Showing Forth The Presence of God,” Chapter 7, Section: “Do We Trust The Word of God.”
Everything I see is love -RAdams
“Everything I see is love. I see love everywhere. In the clouds in the sky, in the tree, in the birds, in people, in the animals. I am able to see this because I am that myself. Nothing and no one can hurt me any longer. For I have become unhurt-able. No one can show me any evil anywhere because evil is not a power. It has no validity. It is just wrong thinking.
All is well, all is right, all is good. If you truly wish to repent just sit in silent meditation and see that perfect reality within, for all manner of evil merely arise in erroneous thought and like the morning dew before the rising sun can completely be eliminated through the magnificent wisdom and light. You are that light. You are that wisdom. And all is well.”
~ Robert Adams (20th century American Advaita mystic)
There is Pure Awareness that is
with you all the time, just awaiting
your recognition, awaiting your
understanding that you are not a
body, that you are a spirit, called
the Atman, Brahman, Absolute
Reality. This is who you really
are. This is your real nature.
