To Find Without Seeking

When one is totally free psychologically, then a new person may be realized. This person does not accept the authority of individuals or organizations. As an entity that does not exist as a defined individuality, one is free to realize the truth of each moment as it arises. To live as one who is not identified with any belief or system of thought, means that you accept the diversity of life and are not destructive of its existence. One lives a life of anarchistic simplicity. There is no attempt by the self to alter the truth of the moment. There is no entity that seeks to quantify or compare "what is" with the ideal of self. When one is totally free there is no intervening self as an entity that is seeking or concluding. Such a mind is meditative in that there is an awareness that transcends time/space. The outcome of this awareness is a consciousness that is unconditioned. A consciousness that can only exist in total freedom.

It is difficult for most people to comprehend such a state of consciousness because they are all wrapped up and concerned with their own problems and issues. Just to get past the idea of the self as the center of "being" seems insurmountable. Meditation can give a person a measure of peace. But it is only a temporary respite from a mind that is in constant conflict. A transcendent consciousness that is not at the mercy of the self requires one to see into the nature and source of all division. Even if one has a realization that brings to light the true self, it is difficult to maintain because the mind is in a constant state of becoming. Realization of a consciousness that is unconditioned is a dynamic process that involves a constant in the moment understanding of the self that is seeking the idealization of its image as what is. This dynamic process is the activity of a "Meditative Mind". It is the unfolding of an awareness that is a transcendence of the illusion of minds propensity to define and thus conclude. The mind moves through time/space creating its own reality which is the result of its beliefs and experience. It is not enough to realize the illusion of this movement. One must observe in the absolute moment, which means without self as observer and observed, the true reality of minds intent. To see the materialization of thought as movement through time/space as the illusion of duality. Duality which is the conflict of the me and not me, the separative activity of a mind that is creating its own conflict.

The mind moves away from the reality of the moment because it is seeking and desiring an intervening source that will provide answers i.e. God, Krishna, Mohammed, Buddha or Spiritualism as the other. One cannot stay with the self because the self is the source of the conflict. So we escape into the self created fantasy of other worldliness. One must stay with the illusion of self, see how that it arises and creates conflict. Within that seeing, that realization is the freedom of the true self. That realization cannot become idealized otherwise it is just another "spiritual tenet" that becomes a path or goal. It is a dynamic experiencing that is only in the moment, it is the new and totally without comparison from moment to moment. Do not "spiritualize" a realization into a goal or aspiration for the gratification of the self. Live in the desolation of the absolute moment, that is absent all save the reality and truth of the unconditioned.
