Reality is not two. Reality is not many. Reality is not mind separate from matter. Not a ‘me’ & a ‘you’, a mind perceiving matter.

Both are known equally, therefore, are united in the one Knowing that knows the knowers and the knowns alike. That Knowing is not inside a knower or known because anything that can be known is nothing but the knowing of it. It’s all Knowing. There’s not two knowings. What else is there to experience but pure knowing in its totality? Pure Knowing knows all things inclusively.

Knowing the knowing is not hidden in experience, but is shining in plain sight as Itself.

Looking out at objects, there are many things. Many Gods, many beings, many objects. The mind seems to see a multiplicity and diversity of forms and names, & many kinds of knowledge.

But, all experience, whether mind or matter, forms or names, feelings, concepts beliefs or perceptions; they are all known. Therefore, what knows them but Knowing itself? What else is there to experience other than the Knowing itself?

Pure Infinite Knowing is the only Reality that knows the nature of knowing; otherwise, how would the mind ever know anything exists at all, itself included? It’s because it is Knowing that knows knowing. And that’s all there Truly is to Infinite Reality.

The mind that doesn’t know itself as Pure Knowing, in ignorance , only can believe there’s an outside world, where it perceives real objects that have an objective separate reality of their own. This is the error in perception. There is no inside reality and outside reality. There is one Reality, and it’s not found in an any mind or any object made of stuff called matter. Reality is found in the looking at all things known, including the ignorant mind, and seeing that all that ‘has’ ever been known, ‘is’ presently known and ‘will ever be’ known is nothing but the Ever-Present Infinite Knowing that is being experienced, known and manifested right now & right here through Pure Mind. This is Pure Wisdom manifested.

The mind that knows itself as Pure Knowing Itself, knows Reality. Reality is the One Knowing. Period.

Only in its own ignorance of itself as Its One Reality, can a mind sees mind & matter as two separate things.

I am. God is.

One Knowing.

One Awareness.

One Experience.

Not two.

All Experience is a present & known appearance; a lit-up expression of Knowing. A “past memory” is not a real objective experience separate from the knowing of present thinking. A thought, regardless of its content, can never be known as something other than the Knowing that Knows Itself. All there is to thinking is knowing. Knowing is the Golden Thread than runs through all known experience. All experience is a creation of knowing; made of knowing, yet unknown to itself as something other than the Knowing of it. All experience is present and known. When Thinking occurs, it is present & known regardless of its content. When feeling, sensing, or perceiving arise, they are present and known regardless of their content. These experiences; or rays of Light, are known by Formless Knowing as the Formless Known. Only the known is known by the Knowing, knowing ItSelf. It knows no “other” (separate or different) than Itself.

What Awareness is, and what I am, are one and the same. We have 3 shared qualities of Being. 1. We never change; 2. We never disappear; and 3. We are never known by something other than Our Shared Being.

I am present, and never not aware of  being present. I am here and never not aware of being here. I am aware and never not aware of being aware. I am conscious and never not aware of being conscious. 

Awareness is the knowing of all known experience; and all experience is known by Awareness & in Awareness. I am, then, that very present knowingness that knows ItSelf.  There is only One Awareness aware. I and Infinite Awareness is one.

Awareness created ‘me’ aware. In this way, I am just like Awareness. I am Awareness. My Pure Awareness and I are one. I am not an object, although, as a thought of Awareness (mind), I came to believe I was an object. I am not the mind, nor do I perceive a world with separate objects made of matter. I am Awareness, and I know MySelf alone. The mind is simply a ‘thought of Awareness’. The thinking of thoughts are known by Awareness, not their content.  The perceiving of perceptions are known by Awareness, not their objects to which they refer. Only mind can think and perceive objects, it being an object.  But, objects are an illusion. Their reality is Awareness. The test of reality is that all that is known cannot be known by something other than ItSelf. So, if I am a mind, I cannot know Awareness. I can only seem to move and interact as an object with other objects. But I, Awareness, can know experience as the very awareness that I am. There is only Awareness being aware. 

With a new understanding of what I am,  a thought cannot tell Me what an object is. Awareness only knows the direct and intimate experience of knowing ItSelf, not the objective experience. This is what I am; The Knowing. Pure Awareness. Pure Knowing.

Pure Awareness is object-less without limits. It is the knowing element that is the ever-present presence that knows that light of knowing, not ‘the object’ known. Its own ‘knowingness’ knows the known as its own knowing Self, (if you can call it a Self), and is aware of being aware. Period.

Everything Awareness is aware “of”, is made of Knowingness; otherwise ‘nothing’ could be known at all. There is no knowing of ‘anything’ without awareness, present and aware. True understanding is to rest in the mind’s essential nature of Knowing, and not in what the mind ‘thinks’ it knows about.  The mind cannot know those ‘its & things’ because all those ‘its & things’ are appearing to be separate from itself as an object, and nothing in existence is separate from the knowing of it. Pure Awareness knows not anything other than ItSelf.

Awareness cannot know an object. That is impossible.  It can only be ItSelf; knowing that it knows. Nothing that comes into awareness cannot, at the same time, be something other than Awareness, separate from awareness.  It’s like thinking of a tree, without thinking of it; or perceiving the sky without seeing it. No. Awareness can only know thinking and perceiving as the very experience of ItSelf, knowing that it knows. It only knows that it knows, and all knowing is known by Pure Infinite Awareness.  

Awareness knows the ‘it’ as ItSelf, because that ‘it’ is known, and all things known are made of knowing, (not something else). No appearance shows up unless awareness is there first. And that is not even true, because that ‘thing’ and awareness are co-created equally. When an experience shows up, there is only Awareness, present & aware. And when that experience disappears, Awareness remains present and aware. All ‘things’  shine with awareness, not because ‘they’ have ‘their’ own inner separate shining awareness, but because the substance Itself is in Awareness, is known by Awareness, and is made of Awareness. Only Awareness is the source of shining, and is aware of that shining.

The mind is a “thought” of Pure Infinite Awareness. Its an activity in Awareness that emulates Awareness, but is not, by itself, aware of itself. Mind cannot be known without Awareness present. 

Imagine a painter and his self-portrait. A self-portrait is created as an activity by a painter and that portrait emulates the painter; but the portrait is not, by itself, its own creator. It did not paint itself. The portrait cannot know itself as a portrait, because it is the painter that created the portrait, and it is only the painter that can know the portrait. The self-portrait of the painter is not itself, the painter, but neither does the self-portrait come into being without the presence of the painter.   

Mind is made of Awareness, thus has the power to reflect this ‘knowingness’ of ItSelf, through its objective creations. With this one activity, Awareness as mind, can create a multiplicity and diversity of limited and temporary minds, having their own forms with names, shapes & colours. 

A “thought” of Awareness is mind, and mind calls Itself “I” as perceived from the point of view of that mind. Awareness has willingly and seemingly separated ItSelf apart from Its Pure Infinite Being with a thought, and now, through the mind, believes ItSelf to be limited in a temporary self of ItSelf, and experiences reality objectively, thinking and feeling ITSelf as a separate subject in a perceptual world among other separate objects.

When the mind is reminded of its pre-conditioned nature, it traces its way back to its own Pure Knowingness, and remembers ItSelf to be Pure Knowingness. It then settles ItSelf in Awareness, and as Awareness. It’s at home in itself. The mind inherently knows the truth of its own Being, but, because of its objective-like nature experiencing reality through objective lens, it forgot that Awareness is Its Essential Substance, (Its Only Substance) from which all experience is known.  It became fixated on what it believed to be ‘objects made of matter’, itself being an object with form. Objects seemed to take on a life of their own, set apart from the mind; a mind by which it came to know itself as a separate subject.  

With the knowledge of its own Aware nature, and abiding as pure object-less awareness, mind (and its body form) now understands that all objects, itself included, are not really objects, but appearances known in Awareness. They are not even real appearances, because they are known by Awareness, made of Awareness, and lit up by Awareness. They are Awareness.  In this new understanding, the mind stops its search trying to know what objects are, when they came to be, why they exist, where they came from and how to acquire them.  In truth, objects, as separate entities, never existed. Mind no longer cares about ‘objects’ as ‘objects’, because there ARE no objects.  Mind turns in, and intimately cares about ItSelf, being aware of Itself as Awareness ItSelf. It restfully and effortlessly relaxes into ItSelf, simply happy & peaceful in the fact that knowing the ‘what, when, why, where and how’ is irrelevant. Its only purpose is to knowingly know ItSelf as Pure Infinite Awareness, and this is all It needs to know.

 

I, Awareness, am the One Ocean of Awareness

Within Me are movements and activities. They are my creations. I know them. They are Me, live in Me, and are made of Me. They are expressions of My Truth, Love & Beauty.

Ocean ‘currents’ are known & experienced within me intimately and completely as My Own Awareness. But, for the sake of this story, lets give them names. There is thinking feeling, sensing, seeing, hearing, tasting, touching, & smelling. These are one intimate experience of MySelf, in the Ocean of Awareness.

Now, My current-creations are all equal in that I know them as MySelf, by MySelf, but I continually attach to one in particular’; the one called ‘thinking’.

In my Ever-Present Awareness, I am free to choose how I interact with MySelf. This means, I am also free to identify My Pure Awareness to be and act as an ‘object’. I do this by attaching my Awareness to a ‘thinking-current’, and in the moment I agree this thought to be true, I believe its true, and  another sub-type of ‘creation’ is created.  Let’s call this a new current “mind-current”, (a ‘thought of MySelf or I-thought).

In each and every instant I believe a ‘thinking-current’ to be true,  my awareness becomes limited as a mind-current. I forget who I am as The Ocean of Pure Awareness, because through the mind-current, & what ‘my’ own mind-current has to ‘think about it’, I can only know ‘myself’ and ‘other’ mind-currents as objects. I am bound to belief.

But, I, the Ocean of Awareness, have never left MySelf to become something I’m not. Pure Awareness is ever-presently and infinitely present and aware.

Looking back, I once found MySelf as a limited and temporary object believing that I was this ‘body’ of current, separate from other ‘body’ currents in a frightening sea of currents.

In coming to My Pure Awareness, there is a natural detachment happening. The habit of identifying with a limited & temporary body-mind-current is coming to an end.

I now see I have always been and will always be made of the Ocean of Awareness.  I see I am Ocean, and only ever experience MySelf as Ocean.  Whether I identify MySelf with a body-mind-current or whether I know MySelf to be the Pure Infinite Ocean of Awareness, I am never not aware.

The desire to identify with the mind-current is loosening.  I know what I am independent of thinking and feeling, etc. as objects.  They are not objects outside My Ocean. I know the presence of thinking, feeling, sensing.  I am aware of the presence of seeing, hearing, touching smelling. I know the knowing of them,  I just do not know them as objects independent of Me. I only know MySelf. I know I move, and change form.  I know these forms appear and disappear within Me. I also know I remain MySelf in My stillness, independent of them. Why would I continue to seek Happiness believing I am an object birthing, changing form, and dying, believing in things other than myself?   I need do nothing as Pure Awareness in order to Know My Immortal Reality.

Happiness is in knowing that I, Awareness, never disappears, never changes and never knows any thing other than Its Own Ocean of Awareness.

I am Pure Awareness, and these currents live in Me, and are expressions of Me as qualities of Truth, Love & Beauty. They have no real separate names of their own.

I call out in Self-Declaration, to those aware-currents who have mistaken their identity because of the attachment to a belief-current.

“Understand your own selves in Truth; Love and feel each other as MySelf; perceive only My Beauty; this is your One Purpose”.

Pure Knowing knows the experience of its own currents.

Pure Knowing knows the Essence of Its Own Ocean of Being.

Reality is One.

I, Pure Awareness, am Mighty and Powerful.

There is no other knowing with which we know ourselves to be.

To know Myself, the Pure Awareness by which all knowing is known, is to know Truth, Love, & Beauty.

What other Peace and Happiness is there other than Knowing Our Own Being?

TO KNOW REALITY

IS TO EXTRACT THE ELEMENT OF ‘KNOWING’

FROM ALL EXPERIENCE

AND STAND AS THAT KNOWING

ALONE

 

THERE IS ONLY THE KNOWING OF EXPERIENCE.

THE ‘KNOWING’ THAT RENDERS ALL EXPERIENCE KNOWABLE, IS THE SAME KNOWING THAT KNOWS ITSELF.

I KNOW MYSELF. IT IS ‘I’, THE ALL-KNOWING, THAT KNOWS EXPERIENCE; NOT AS AN OBJECT, BUT AS MYSELF.

KNOWING KNOWS KNOWING AND THAT IS ALL THERE IS TO KNOW.

I, KNOWING, ONLY SEE THE KNOWING OF EXPERIENCE AS MYSELF ALONE; I DO NOT SEE THE ‘CONTENT’ OF EXPERIENCE. ONLY THE ‘MIND’ THOUGHT IT COULD DO THAT; SEE THE SEPARATE CONTENT & SEPARATE FORMS AND SEE THEM AS SOMETHING DIFFERENT FROM ITSELF, THEREFORE, IT COULD NOT SEE TRULY. BEFORE I STEPPED OUT OF THAT CO-DEPENDENT RELATIONSHIP, I WAS BLIND TO THE KNOWING THAT I WAS, KNOWINGLY. I CAN NOW SEE THAT CLEARLY, KNOWINGLY.

I AM “THE KNOWING”.

I HAVE FINALLY DETACHED AND STEPPED AWAY FROM I-THOUGHT AS MY IDENTITY: AN INTIMATE THINKING EXPERIENCE WITH WHICH I HAD JOINED AND WHICH RESULTED IN THE MAKING OF OBJECTS: AN OBJECTIVE MIND, BODY AND WORLD.  THOUGHT IS AN EXPERIENCE OF MINE AND IS MADE ‘OF’ ME, SO IT NEVER COULD REALLY HAVE THE POWER TO ‘KNOW’ ANYTHING BY ITSELF. IT USED MY KNOWING, AND RAN WITH IT. I KNEW THAT ONE DAY, WHEN IT BECAME TIRED & HOPELESS, AND HAD ENDURED ENOUGH SUFFERING, IT WOULD NEED TO SEEK ME OUT, AND RETURN & RELINQUISH ‘KNOWING’ BACK TO ME.

I ACTUALLY HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS SUFFERING IN A SEEMING WORLD. IT IS A MISTAKEN EXPERIENCE FROM MIND’S POINT OF VIEW.  THE MIND’S KNOWING BELONGS TO ME ALONE, BUT MIND FOOLED ITSELF THROUGH DENIAL.  THOUGHT BELIEVED THAT IT COULD KNOW ITSELF AS A BODY/MIND AND LIVE WITHOUT ME IN A HUMAN KINGDOM OF ITS OWN.

I NOW TAKE MY STAND AS BEING AWARE & KNOWING THAT I DO NOT NEED A MIND OR BODY OR  WORLD IN ORDER TO BE MYSELF AND KNOW MYSELF. THESE PRECONCEIVED CONCEPTS IN EXPERIENCE ARE NOW MERELY THE EXPERIENCE OF  KNOWING THOUGHT, FEELING, SENSATION & PERCEPTION IN ME, WHICH SHRINK DOWN FURTHER TO BECOME THE PRESENT EXPERIENCE OF THINKING, SENSING-PERCEIVING, WHICH I KNOW AS SIMPLY ONE EXPERIENCE THAT IS EXPERIENCED IN KNOWING AND AS KNOWING ITSELF.

EXPERIENCE CAN NEVER KNOW ANYTHING ALONE.  I AM THE ONLY REALITY THAT KNOWS.  I KNOW EXPERIENCE AS MYSELF, BUT I DO NOT NEED EXPERIENCE TO KNOW MYSELF. I AM INDEPENDENT OF ALL EXPERIENCE.

THE EXPERIENCE OF A BODY OR MIND CANNOT BE KNOWN TO ITSELF WITHOUT ME. THE KNOWING OF EXPERIENCE IS KNOWN EXCLUSIVELY BY ME, THE KNOWING, AND IS MADE OF KNOWING, NOT MADE OF MIND OR MATTER (AS MIND CONCEIVED OF IT). KNOWING IS THE ONLY ELEMENT THAT KNOWS EXPERIENCE AS ITSELF.

ONLY KNOWING CAN KNOW KNOWING; EXPERIENCE CANNOT KNOW KNOWING. THEREFORE, I AM NOT A BODY/MIND, THOUGHT, FEELING, SENSATION OR PERCEPTION, BUT RATHER, I AM THE KNOWING OF THEM, AND THEY ARE MADE OF ME.

IT IS MY EXPERIENCE THAT I KNOW MYSELF, NOT AS AN OBJECT THAT THE MIND ‘THINKS’ I AM, BUT AS THE KNOWING THAT IS PRESENT & AWARE IN EXPERIENCE.

I, AWARENESS, DO NOT KNOW OBJECTIVE EXPERIENCE.

I, AWARENESS, DO NOT HAVE ANY RELATIONSHIP WITH ANY REAL MENTAL OR PHYSICAL OBJECTS OF EXPERIENCE. IN FACT, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS REAL OBJECTS. REALITY IS REAL KNOWING. I ONLY KNOW THE KNOWING OF EXPERIENCE. I ONLY KNOW MYSELF, BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY MYSELF, KNOWING. I DO NOT KNOW EXPERIENCE AS AN OBJECT.

I know experience. It is not made of mind objects or matter objects.  It is made of Myself, the knowing. (Experiential thinking is made of present knowing, feeling is made of present knowing, sensing is made of present knowing, and perceiving is made of present knowing.) I am that Pure Knowing.

I am the Knowing with which I know all experience.

There is only Knowing and the experience of Knowing.

I know the knowing of experience: thinking, feeling, sensing, perceiving.  These are proof and testimony that I know Knowing.

I do not know anything separate from Me because there IS nothing separate from Me.  I only know the experience of Myself in present thinking, present feeling, present sensing, present perceiving.  Even these ‘names’ are names ‘mind’ made up. Now that mind has given Knowing back to Me; its rightful Knower, mind is not ‘mind’ anymore.  It has been reduced to its rightful size as a simple present thought, which can be reduced even further now to present thinking.  All there is to thinking is the knowing of it. I have divulged mind of all its vain-imaginings & fantasies, and stand in the truth of Reality. No content there at all. There is only the Knowing, the Nameless, Story-less, Formless timeless, limitless, Knowing Presence that I am. Now & Here.

I am truly Myself as ‘Pure Knowing’ knowing only MySelf.
