What Is Right Here and Now Automatically

Reading quesHon from the chat: Why does the seeing, [meditaHon] not seep in automaHcally? How much do we need to live with the personhood?

Okay, so let’s explore this noHon, whether this is true: What is here automaHcally? Personhood is here automaHcally? Right now, automaHcally, what is here? – using your term ‘automaHcally’. Only the truth is here, automaHcally. For the rest you have to put effort; for the faults, you have to work. If you just stayed with what is here naturally – let’s change the word to ‘naturally’- if you just stayed with what just is, there is no struggle, there is no trouble, you are a Sage then. [Silence] So if you are open right now, to remaining open and empty – that’s it. All the effort that we spoke about previously was just to make you open enough to be open [Chuckle]. If you feel like you are open enough to be open now, everything, the highest poinHng can be dropped. There is nothing you have to do. But what will trap you? What will trap you is your idea about what you think must happen: “What should happen? Once I become open and I come to this true realizaHon, will I have a life full of love, peace and joy? Will I have a halo? Will I have devotees? [Chuckle]. Will every word I say sound like satsang?” So this need for a parHcular outcome from our just simple being is what traps us. Because even if it is not so serious, it at least makes a report card in your head, saying: “See this is not happening for you, therefore you must not be open enough yet”.

But I don’t remember saying it subsides. I remember saying, you will not come to its subsiding if you keep thinking about it subsiding. And this is exactly what you’re doing. Lose concern about its subsiding and see what happens. Lose concern about that which you think you are. Let go of all its plans, including even the highest plan and see for yourself what is true right here and now automaHcally. Are you sHll here? What does that one look like?
