Looking but not Seeing
Looking but not seeing is the result of a mind that is consumed with its programed activity of knowing. To look with a fresh mind means that you are aware that you are programed. The mere fact that you think at all requires some measure of programing. It is important to realize that the programing is not a separate activity of thought, but is in fact part of thought. To realize this is to realize thoughts illusion of duality. When you are aware in the absolute moment, then it is possible for thought to realize its own movement as an illusion of what is programed. One may see that this movement in reality has no validity in the absolute moment. That is, its validity is solely a function of the mind that is caught in its own projected and desired result. It is not true reality. True reality is without the known as thoughts duality of a projected self. In true reality there is no movement. It is understanding that realizes how the mind works and that it exist as an attachment to a defined image. An image that thought creates a duality around.
Seeing that there is a duality of consciousness in the mechanism of thinker and thought, one can through an awareness that is not seeking or accomplishing, realize the non-dual or unconditioned. A person can only have this realization when the mind is quiet, but not the self seeking activity of a "practiced meditation". It is the unassuming transparency of a consciousness that is free of any ideal or image. One should allow the moment to be what it is. The simplicity of thoughts non-interference in the reality of what is. Even though thought may continue its movement, one needs only to observe without the duality of the one who is referencing and comparing. One is not assigning a numerically judgemental significance to thoughts movement. If a person has the passion to realize such a state of existence, then one will eventually see without an origin.
