Hello, everybody. I’m getting emails that some people can’t get to the new Prime Post. At my house I can see it on the Posts page via Chrome, Apple ios, and Safari. I can’t see it on either Firefox or Edge. It must be a glitch with the new theme update. It’s not the first […]
My late afternoon appointment the other day was with a very nice guy, around my age, who was stuck in the Bubble of Self-reflection. It’s where nearly all veteran seekers are stuck: same place, different fixes tailored to where the student/client is when they get to me. The Bubble of Self-reflection is when we […]
Let your love be stronger than your hate or anger. Learn the wisdom of compromise, for it is better to bend a little than to break. H. G. Wells English Author, 1886-1946 Thanks to Betsy.
Fascinating piece by a leading physicist in Mach magazine. Is the Universe Conscious?
Hi Fred, Nice to meet “you”! I heard of the “Fred Unit” while doing the current Finder´s Course Direct Inquiry week. Some fellow students recommended your book, Awaken NOW, which this unit found key to shift my state to, “I” want to say, “Awakened Awareness.” Somehow this unit “feels” finally “at the other side” and […]
stargirl 5 hours ago Fred, I had been seeking enlightenment when I came across your book, Awaken NOW. I finished reading it just now. Reading the book, I had my awakening. If I’m being honest, it was almost anticlimactic?? I wasn’t hit by a fit of hysterical laughter. It was nothing spectacular. It was just […]
In non-duality circles, one may hear that awakening is a purely random, accidental event: Because it is not the character who awakens, there is nothing the individual can do to cultivate or attain the awakened state. The truth is ever present, and it will simply manifest or not, independent of causes or conditions. But the […]
I have an analytical mind. It wants to know how things work, why they work, the logic behind the process. Understanding the how and why of things provides a sense of security and guidance in decisions and actions. But when searching for truth, it can take us only so far. Thought is a simulator of […]
The audio on this video is not great; I don’t know what was going on with my microphone. Nonetheless, it’s probably worth your time to watch it. The Myth of Nondual Liberation
A friend of mine told me about this short film today, and I knew I had to see it. I loved it. That’s all I’m telling you. The animation is lovely, if you like that sort of thing, as I do. If you’ve got a spare 20 minutes, click the link and give it a […]
Goodness and love mould the form into their own image, and cause the joy and beauty of love to shine forth from every part of the face. Emanuel Swedenborg 1688-1772
Have you ever felt that your life was like a cheap novel? Like a Nancy Drew book, where, after one story was told and you thought that was the end of it, you find the author has just spit out another one, and as soon as you finish that one, a new story comes along. […]
At one time or another, we all have known or perhaps been that person who has fallen into the trap of living vicariously. In the relative world, this is not a healthy dynamic. Most commonly it happens with a parent through a child, to the detriment of both: The child feels an undue burden of […]
My ego desperately wants to be enlightened. I want to crow from the rooftops that I made it—I have arrived! I watch this need to be special, to reassure myself that all this searching has fulfilled my dreams of awakening: fame, adoration, a perfect life. But for the most part, I seem to have been […]
Claiming Your Awakening VIDEO PODCAST
There is an identity, but no entity. There is a personality, but no person. The nondual teacher Rupert Spira once explained that the nature of objects is that they can be set apart from one another. We can distinguish the smell of coffee from the warm rays of the sun touching our skin. We know […]
Thanks to Mike.
There is a Danish saying that a dear child has many names. So it is with language, which we cherish as essential to our humanity. Thoughts, concepts, labels, ideas, theories, descriptions, definitions, judgments, strategies, interpretations, stories—all of these express and reinforce our love of abstraction. One of the great teachers of non-duality, the 9th-century Chinese […]
How can anyone convey to you that the journey you’re about to embark upon cannot be conceptualized? You have spent your entire adult life living in thought and concept, but are now called to a place entirely beyond this habitual frame of reference. How on earth will you reach it? How will you not look […]
