Timelessness of the Unconditioned

How does a person realize a consciousness that is unconditioned? What is the reality of the unconditioned? What do we mean by unconditioned? The unconditioned is not a state of existence that can be learned as knowledge. One cannot acquire it through practice or discipline. It is a realization of the moment that excludes the self as that which is seeking a conclusion or an opinion. It is not a cognitive accomplishment that becomes a part of ones effort. It is re-realized from moment to moment. It is the reality of the absolute moment that is not a movement of thought as the separative self. The timeless is action in the moment, the action of understanding that is no way connected to memory as experience. Memory is the formulated, the self that is seeking answers in what was. The unconditioned is the the unreferenced, that which is absent thought as the movement of time.

The unconditioned is timeless in the sense that it is not a referenced thought that is the result of ones experience. It is always new as that which has validity only in the absolute moment. It is neither a position nor a movement, so there is no definition either as a relativity or quantum adherence. It has nothing to do with the foolishness of quantum manifestation. All these are the tricks of a mind that is seeking answers to questions that are the result of ones conditioned consciousness. It is the mind that is seeking to know, the known that represents the self as the image of the illusion of what is. Science is the known which is seeking to make the unknown the known. Because of the limitations of thought as the self which is seeking, one can only know what is relative to ones perception. The truth of the unknown cannot be defined, it is infinite in the sense that it has neither beginning nor ending. It can be hinted at but never completely understood as either a paradox or an uncertainty. If there is understanding that is definition then it is the projection of the observer, the self which is seeking the image of self in that which is defined.

As humans we are extremely curious and anxious about knowing. We want to understand so that we can problem solve. We come up with all kinds of formulas and systems to facilitate that understanding, but somehow we can never grasp the a full understanding of the self that is doing the formulating and systematizing. We develop every kind of method that can be gleaned from both the ancient and the new age, from esoteric text to the science of quantum physics and string theory. All of it is totally meaningless if one cannot understand the conflict and violence that is within each of us. All these products of the mind do nothing to help realize the truth of who we actually are. They are only distractions that lead us further astray, that prevent us from remaining in the simplicity of the moment in which one can realize truth.

Challenge yourself to remain totally in the moment for a full day and realize your every thought along with its true motivations. Look at yourself as you actually are, not as you would like to think of yourself as. Do it choicelessly without a conclusion or a judgement. Just observe the moment and perhaps thought will realize its own movement. Truth may be revealed to you and you will realize a freedom that cannot be defined.
