Just be open and empty right now

The Truth of anything valuable can never be known in the head, can never be known perceptually. That may lead to a misunderstanding someHmes, that the Sage is poinHng to like a withdrawal of aZenHon from percepHon. But that's not what the Masters are saying. What's really being said is that even if you openly perceive, what we call pure percepHon, what happens? Are you meeHng just the world? In pure percepHon, are you meeHng just the world, are you meeHng just percepHons? Please contemplate this quesHon. It may seem very simple, but can unlock our life. As you're just in pure percepHon, what do you noHce? You naturally noHce the world's play, the beauHful percepHon of the world with no opposiHon, you noHce that. Your Being is completely palpable, completely palpable. It's completely apparent. And that you are aware even of this Being is fully clear, is fully clear. This is what I mean by Open and Empty. And the only doorway to hell – because this is heaven, there is no other heaven – the only doorway to hell now is to take the rumblings of this mind and to give them value, that process that we call belief. Not even you don't have to discard your aZenHon from them. If you can do it, fine, do it. If you don't give them aZenHon, then nothing to believe or not believe anyway. So, that's fine, but most of us can't. So let aZenHon be on them unless you take them to be true, and you can do this, you can do this, and thanks to Dale for poinHng that out to everyone. Don't get into this sort of meekishness and sheepishness and say „Oh, it's too much, it's too big, I can't do it“. You then are not represenHng God. God can never be hostage to a single misery thought, not a thought as prisHnely designed as it may be that can grab the throat of God and say „You have to believe“. So, already the thought has grabbed you then saying that you are something limited, and it can then operate from that limited perspecHve saying „These thoughts are too big“. You must hand it over. And you know the thoughts which will seem aZracHve to you? The thoughts which will seem aZracHve to you are those that you value more than your Self. You may think that you value them for yourself. It is a lie. It is not for your true Self. The thought of the delusion that you value more than the Self are the thoughts which are aZracHve. So invesHgate the nature of those thoughts and find out who wants that or who doesn't want that, either desire or aversion, whose is that. And you can experiment with this. Just be open and empty right now. The world is clear? Without any understanding of it, it's apparent. No world knowledge is missing here. AcHons can happen, drinking water can happen, you don't have to get into any Yogi Baba pose to be open and empty. Just very natural, everything is fine. Your Being is apparent or not? See if it is apparent independent of even your aZenHon. SomeHmes what may happen is that when you say keep your aZenHon on the sense of Being, what are you actually doing? You cannot bring your aZenHon to the unlimited, your Being is unlimited. What you are actually doing, you are coming to the core of this light, the essence of this primordial vibraHon, and trying to bring your aZenHon to rest over there, which is beauHful in itself. But if you say that my aZenHon is resHng on the enHrety of my Being, that is not possible, because your aZenHon is limited, and everything is your Being. And this is apparent. So, it doesn't maZer whether aZenHon is outward, or aZenHon is so-called inward, you see. AZenHon is actually only outward. There is no inward as far as aZenHon is concerned. To go further inward now, you reach a stop with your aZenHon, you cannot do it. It's a roadblock. How do you go further inward? How do you see that your Being is unlimited? You know this, you know that your Being doesn't have a boundary. How do you know? Any quesHon which the Sages asked you, you can only answer intuiHvely. How do you know? I don't know with my aZenHon, because how will I check on the unlimited nature of my Being with my aZenHon? [Looks around searching] Wherever you send it, you can't check. So, does your Being have a limit? [You are with me, my dear?] Okay, so does your Being have a limit? No. Where do you know that? That is your Heart, that is intuiHon. Was your Being born? Were you born? Can this die? All these quesHons can only be answered from that. And the answer is [clicks fingers] instant. Not even instant, it's before the instant.
