Absolute mystery is what is here. We try through concepts to arrive at some conclusions about life, to make it seem tame, or to find some sort of fixed truth about ourselves or the world. We do this habitually to cover our fundamental insecurity and the fact that we have so very little control. But defending ourselves with ideas never works, does it?
But when we notice, through our direct experience, what presents itself right here right now, we are flung into That which cannot be described in any way whatsoever. We are smack in the middle of the Mystery that is beyond thought but is effortlessly experienced.
Meditation is just noticing what is here right now without expectations. In that sense meditation is identical to enlightenment.
see?
Ooooooooh....I like that one alot... it is soooooo simple and clear.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing.
Mentioning as well last weeks was delicious too for the graphically inclined.
Thanks for your comment. Glad that your found it simple and clear. That's what I strive for ... so much 'spiritual' writing can be ego food as the ego's favorite dish is complexity as it seemingly hides what is here.
