How honest are You?

   

 

Enlightenment is about truth, your truth.

Telling the truth is an aspect of awakening.
Truth is of the highest standard.
Truth is not a plaything, neither is life.
Both are a gift, Grace.

To tell what is true within, is not to tell what
we think, it is not to tell our opinions, not to dump the rubbish in our mind on others.
Truth within is the willingness to be totally transparent and un-conditioned.

Anything else is illusion, distortion, and projection.
Belief systems are not truth, neither is conditioning.
Those are all simply programmed into you since you were a child.

Truth is much more simple.
Truth is a totality of life, of being and of divine knowledge. A total flow let's say.
Truth is not about telling the trut, it's a whole way of life, being out.

 

Your story, Your bondage, Your samsara

To speak on this level, you have to totally and absolutely un-protect yourself from your own illusion as well as the one that you project out.
You stand alone as much as we stand as one.
Your story of your life is your bondage, your samsara.
See it, let it go and be clear of it forever.

From an absolute viewpoint (Advaita Vedanta), nothing is happening.
From a relative viewpoint, everything is happening and contracted.
The invitation here is to be in the centre of both dimensions.
To see all as an illusion, the dance of life, and at the same moment, to see all as real, an actual happening.
Now to balance them up into a 'transcended life form' is the highest level of human wisdom or call it enlightenment (or so it appears that way).

Within that structure of wisdom/grace, you also have to take responsibility for your humanness. Think about that word, 'humanness', because the divine expresses itself through that form, your body and mind.
Whether transcended or not (everyone and everything is already enlightened) makes no difference. Therefore, even with the highest of knowledge and wisdom, still take responsibility for who you are and take care of those around you.
Evading life through spirituality misses the point completely and turns wise men into fools.

To finish off, 'right action' is part of the Buddhist path of wisdom.
Be aware of your actions.
Speak the truth, live with a clear conscience and keep a balanced point of view.
Total honesty within yourself will free you from any bondage of mind or ideas.

Have a wonderful month.

 

With much Love and Joy,
Namasté
