I've come to realize that for Human Beings thinking is the "less desirable path" because it is not true, it is always colored by our past memories, experiences and our beliefs. Inquiry and sincere questioning of "what is" in every moment (especially the toughest ones!) keeps us in a much more "true condition" and much more open to clarity in any moment. Human Being-ness is tough, but tough primarily because we, for some odd reason, completely stop BEING, begin Believing and then acting as if those Beliefs are true. What would happen if Human Beings allowed themselves to Be? Just Be?
Miracles perhaps?
So in this spirit I ask:
WHO and WHAT are You?
When you/I create…or we request.... Who/What is asking? Who/What is hearing? Who/What is "granting" the request? Who/What is receiving?
What/Who exists really?
Who is Here? Right now, reading these words?
Who thinks? Who sleeps? Who breathes?
Do you know? Really know? Are you sure or do you have a "thought" about who is here? A belief?
Might it be that you really don’t know? Could it be that which you think you are is a concept, a mental construct based upon your personal beliefs and memories and the beliefs and memories of the mass consciousness?
What if you accepted that you might not know, and that WHO you think you are might be only a minute fraction of WHAT and WHO you really are? Maybe the “you” reading this right now is a projected thought of a larger consciousness in conjunction with beliefs and thoughts and projected by “your” smaller consciousness.
How many layers deep might these projections go?
What would happen if you tried this on for a moment? You as you know you (a concept) might completely vanish… then what would be left?
Maybe what is left would not be limited by that which you accepted yourself limited by previously? Not limited by conditions, time, space, physicality, beliefs, concepts or thought?
If so, it leads back to the question - Who/What are you?
