Beyond the Named and Identified
The living, thinking being that is the exertion of self is not true reality. The accumulated experience that is the consciousness of existence is the illusion of the self created. What you may think that you are is not what you actually are. Life is lived as that which is seeking an end to a means. One lives in the bondage of the projected reality of the illusion of self. Samsara is living in the conflict and violence of the perception of the separated. One is divided within and one projects that division as conclusion, judgement, and discrimination. Psychologically one is disconnected and without a sense of integration. This is the life that one leads, that everyone leads. It is the human condition, conditioning, which is the result of the desire to become, to be identified. The named, the separated, the one who seeks advantage for the promotion of self interest. Can one in this very moment, have a profound realization, can one see through all the justification and look at the truth of what one actually is? It is possible to have a direct realization of that which is beyond thought. To be aware of the moment and the movement of thought that attempts to pre-empt the true self, ones Buddha Nature. Awareness is all that is needed, a timeless state of not knowing, in which the mind is quiet. In that stillness is the reflection of true reality, the realization of that which is beyond all comprehension.
So you are not who you think you are. You are not the dreamt of, or the sought after. You are not a collection of experiences that formulate an individuality. All this is the superficial, that which has no real meaning. True reality is not the defined, it is devoid of definition. Definition is the expressed limitation of thought. When mind is quiet, there is no limitation. The consciousness of the unconditioned is the realization of understanding that has no origin. It is without a beginning or an end. It is without movement or direction. It is the absolute moment which reveals the truth of what is. As long as one is obsessed with the self, with illusion, one will not see the actuality of the moment. All is veiled by the self that is seeking resolution in what was. Freedom, which is without the endless chattering of vague definition and assumptive projection.
If one can come to a place which is not of time and find through negation, a freedom that is not of the known, then it is possible to live a life that is without the conflict and confusion of the self absorbed. To have an understanding that is devoid of reference and repetition. Understanding that is of the moment and that is without attachment. To live that quality of anonymity that is the total understanding and convergence of existence.
