There is no entity that has any power or an independant nature - Bob Adamson

Simple as that. And that's the simplicity of this, what we point to. Single and simple. Seemingly too simple for the mind. And we say it can't be this easy, and we get involved with another story. Or people have been searching for 10, 20, 30 years doing all sorts of meditation and things like that. Or no, they'll have a vested interest in this search. No, what about my 30 years of meditating? What am I going to do with that? Rather than drop into search, being what they are, they'll carry on for another 20 or 30 years trying to find it. But it doesn't happen. And they wonder why so few people seemingly get it, or what we call get it.

We say here off the start that everybody already is that. There's nobody who can get it. There's no person around to teach that needs to get it or can get it. We say start from that fact that you are already that. If you are that omnipresence, omnipotence, omnivisience, how can you be anything else other than that? We do point you towards that and see that's what you are that already and always have been. You'll never find the answer in a concept. That's just about it. That should do you anyway for a while. It's everybody right. Everybody is that already. Everybody is that already. And it's much easier to see today because we've got all this way of communicating through good translations of ancient texts which weren't translated the way they are today.

With computers and everything like that where there'd be only one or two in a small village isolated somewhere. And only be able to pass it on to a few around because they have no means of communicating with one another. So very few would hear about it. And of those few, not everybody would be able to hear about it. And nobody would be attracted by it. And so that's where they got the idea that it's only for the very few. But today with all the things we've got, the computers and everything, texts and people that understand pointing to it, it's quite easy to see, quite easy to be grabbed and realise that you are that.

You know, you get the idea that a lot of us do, oh I couldn't possibly be that. They're far greater than what I am. It's a lot of crap. But no one better or worse than what you are. Because you are in essence that. No matter how you're patting, experiencing, or shaping and forming. Everybody can contribute to the show. So get into it. Any doubts, any questions, any arguments? Well Bob, the other night it came up that this idea, and it's not an isolated idea. I think you'll find most people have the idea. That there is, oh, I should be doing better in life. Or there are places I should be getting to.

And it was sort of briefly brushed over. But I would have thought if we listen to what you say, there cannot be any, that can only be a mental projection from a self. In other words, to have a belief, there has to be a believer. To have a goal, there has to be somebody created to have that goal. To work towards it. And it can only exist in the linear part of the mind that creates time. So no believer can't be a belief. So where would the goal cling onto? You've got to have a look. You've got to realise, you've got to perceive that there is no entity that has any power or any independent nature.

And we'll point that out again. We'll go through it and point it in. Everybody is seeing right now, isn't that a fact? Everybody is hearing right now. Ask yourself this, does my eye tell me I see? And does my ear tell me I hear? Mine doesn't, does yours? If the thought comes up and translates I see, the thought comes up and translates I hear. The thought, then ask yourself, can the thought I see, can it actually see? Can the thought I hear, can it actually hear? Can it? No. The thought can't see, the thought can't hear. So the thought I'm aware can't be your awareness.

The thought I choose can't be the choice maker. The thought has got no power to do anything whatsoever. When you realise that, that there is no entity there, you know, that thought has got no power to do anything. And it has got no independent nature. It's not something that can stand on its own. You can't have a single thought unless that life essence is there. You've got a body. There's a brain and everything. How many thoughts can you have without that life essence? So you see the thought, which we believe in ourselves to be this imagined thought, has got no power to do any of these things.

So it never did have any power. If that's understood and you function from that point, then the idea that comes up that I've got goals or I need goals, who's having that idea? It's not the entity. That's what comes up in my question along. But why do you believe you're an entity? Yes, you're in duality. You're causing problems to yourself. The thoughts will come up the same as they did before. They can never be attributed to an entity if you see those clearly and know that there's no. Disciplines come up in this mind here. Something might come up, chat about that. It might come up as a false thought.

That thought will come up. There's no thinking of it. Just thinking. Well, don't go there. That's just a concept. There's no argument about it. Is this coming from a me or not me? That's what goes on when people first look at this. Oh, was that my me talking or not? And you see that the me never had any power at all. Never had any independent notion. It was a total fiction. How can it ever come from a me? That's it. But while we're in ignorance, what they call ignorance, we ignore our true nature and believe in their appearance. While we're in that ignorance, ignoring our true nature and believing there is a me there that is functioning, we get caught in all these traps.
