Beyond Words, Beyond Mind Written by Sailor Bob Adamson Investigating A reference point or center with any substance or independent nature cannot be found. Only emptiness, nothingness, not knowing itself as emptiness, knowingness, only emptiness itself suffused with knowingness, intelligence. Just as the sun suffused with light is self-shining, investigating. A reference point or center with any substance or independent nature cannot be found. Only emptiness, nothingness, not knowing itself as emptiness, knowingness. It is only emptiness itself suffused with knowingness, intelligence. Just as the sun suffused with light is self-shining. Keep seeing that there is no thing that sees. See that seeing of itself is happening naturally and the recognizing of the natural seeing will appear to last longer.
The realization will dawn that it is always and ever happening quite naturally, though seemingly clouded by thoughts. It is the base in which things appear and disappear and the base in which things disappear and disappear. There is nothing, though it Electronic you can see it. Vibration is not only seeing, you can see the plants that produce, grow, and grow. The presence of ourselves is the Math of not seeing, but of that medicine of beauty, Vibration as being not yet the seventh being of universe, of that nature. seemingly clouded by thoughts. It is the base in which things appear and disappear. Yet, it is nothing. In seeing that the reference point, self-center ego or idea me, is actually insubstantial, without any independent nature.
The actuality then is like basic space, emptiness, nothing. There is nowhere for a thought, feeling or an emotion to attach to or fixate on. So, with no point or reference, it is realized that the emptiness has the capacity to cognize or register what is, just as it is. In seeing that the reference point, self-center ego or idea me, is actually insubstantial, without any independent nature. The actuality, self-center ego or idea me, is actually insubstantial, without any independent nature. The actuality then is like basic space, emptiness, nothing. There is nowhere for a thought, feeling or an emotion to attach to or fixate on. So, with no point or reference, it is realized that the emptiness has the capacity to cognize or register what is, just as it is.
It is understood that what is being believed to be me a reference point or an ego is only recalled images, thoughts, etc. So thoughts fixate on thought. Thought being energy resists thought-energy. And through that conflict energy resists energy, there arise more thoughts and feelings, such as anxiety, fear, sadness, depression, etc. Living seems to be a struggle, rather than the effortless flowing of the natural state.

And through that conflict energy resists energy, there arise more thoughts and feelings, such as anxiety, fear, sadness, depression, etc.
Living seems to be a struggle, rather than the effortless flowing of the natural state. Thoughts and confusion subside naturally, if there is no point to attach themselves to. They arise in emptiness without a center, and dissolve in emptiness without a center. And just as the sun's rays focus on the sun, focused through a magnifying glass on a spot on the body, will burn, without the glass the warmth naturally spreads evenly over the whole body. Thoughts and confusion subside naturally, if there is no point to attach themselves to. They arise in emptiness without a center, and dissolve in emptiness without a center. And just as the sun's rays focus through a magnifying glass on a spot, focused through a magnifying glass on a spot on the body will burn.
Without the glass, the warmth naturally spreads evenly over the whole body. The moment of recognition that the emptiness, space-like, no shape, no form, no center, no circumference, is suffused with knowing, the capacity to cognize or register, is the release or freedom from the bondage of belief in the idea or concept of a separate entity, individual, a seeming person. That is pure knowing. Many names are put upon it. Godliness, oneliness, awareness, wakefulness, etc. I like to call it intelligence energy, the activity of knowing.

That is pure knowing. Many names are put upon it. Godliness, oneliness, wakefulness, etc. awareness, wakefulness, etc. I like to call it intelligence energy, the activity of knowing. The term knowing is not meant to imply a knower or the known. Neither does it mean what was known or what will be known. It means the actuality that is happening right now. The term knowing is not meant to imply a knower or the known. Neither does it mean what was known or what will be known. It means the actuality that is happening right now. Knowing implies intelligence, an activity taking place presently. An activity implies a movement, vibration of energy.
Hence, intelligence energy is the activity of knowing which is life. This living expressing, vibrating into the myriad energy patterns, which includes thoughts, feelings, etc. Knowing implies intelligence, an activity taking place presently. An activity implies a movement, vibration of energy. Hence, intelligence energy is the activity of knowing which is life. This living, expressing, vibrating into the myriad energy patterns, which includes thoughts, feelings, etc. This appearing and disappearing is the whole manifestation, yet in essence, ever-remaining pure, satcitananda, being knowing and loving to be, just this and nothing else. This appearing and disappearing, This appearing and disappearing, is the whole manifestation, yet in essence ever remaining pure, Sat Chit Ananda, being, knowing and loving to be, just this and nothing else.
The reference point or self-center can be likened to a reflection in a mirror. A reflection has no substance or independence apart from the mirror. It does not contaminate the mirror in any way. The reflection has no validity whatsoever apart from how it appears in the mirror. So it is with the self-center or reference point or ego. It is only a pattern, a thought image, appearing in the cognizing emptiness, and just like the sky writing from an airplane, it dissolves into emptiness. The energy of belief, more thought patterns, and the fixation on it, seemingly keeps the appearance there longer than it would naturally be there. The reference point or self-center can be likened to a reflection in a mirror.

The energy of belief, more thought patterns, and a fixation on it, seemingly keeps the appearance there longer than it would necessarily be there. seemingly keeps the appearance there longer than it would naturally be there. The naturally relaxed cognizing intelligence, knowingness, registers the fact that all appearances in emptiness can only in essence be emptiness, just as it is with or without appearances.
Left as it is without any support, it can only dissolve like the sky writing. Non-conceptual awareness, just this, nothing else, utterly open and wakeful.

Recognize this and you are immediately face to face with natural mind, non-conceptually aware, without any conceptual subject-object thinking taking place. Because of non-recognition of natural mind, the fixation on duality, subject-object, is taken to be real. Because this is continually happening, the natural unchanging mind-essence is missed or overlooked. Thought chases after thought like a dog chasing its tail.

No other can do anything for you, as there is no other and no you. But in hearing or reading this, the thought may arise, through the resonance or recognition, Hey, wait a moment, I see that the answer is not in the conceptual thinking, subject-object, for the pointing out is always about non-duality, pure subject. subjectivity, or self-knowing awareness. In that moment there is an empty awareness, the essence that registers or cognizes everything, just as it is, non-conceptually, including the concepts, thoughts, or activities, everything.

In that moment there is an empty awareness, the essence that registers, or cognizes, everything, just as it is, non-conceptually, including the concepts, thoughts, or activities, everything. Look, or as the ancient scriptures say, come face to face with your basic essence, bare livingness or awareness, or nothingness, emptiness, your original face, space-like awareness, clear and empty, nothing to do or get there, as there is no there.
And you know that no matter how many times you look at yourself, it is too often a reflection of your own. It may not just be a reflection, a reflection of your own self-prison, or a reflection of your own self-prison, but a reflection of it all. And that is only a reflection of the old self. Only the past is a reflection of the present, a reflection of the present. Nothingness, emptiness. Paul said that the moment someone sees anything, everything is going to be clear, and they don't need to be fully aware of it. Sir, when we say, see, Emptiness. Your original face. Space-like awareness. Clear and empty.
Nothing to do or get there, as there is no there. Concepts and seeming things appear in that original face, but its self-shiningness is never contaminated or corrupted by the appearances. Just like no reflections in the mirror contaminate the mirror. When the thought, I or mine or any other belief or concept is not taken to be the subject, then there can only be a subject-less, object-less awareness. When the subject-object thinking is happening, the basic emptiness is seemingly, and your original face, emptiness, is masked by an imagined one. When the thought, I or mine or any other belief or concept is not taken to be the subject, then there can only be a subject-less, object-less awareness.
When the subject-object thinking is happening, the basic emptiness, is seemingly obscured, and your original face, emptiness, is masked by an imagined one. Seeing, hearing, all the functioning is effortlessly happening. The thought, I see this or that, or I think this or that, etc. appears, and with that, the unquestioned subject-object duality, subject-I-see, object-that or whatever, which is the cause of all our problems. Subject-I-see, object-that or whatever, which is the cause of all our problems. Subject-I-see, object-that or whatever, which is the cause of all our problems.

The thought I see this or that or I think this or that etc. appears and with that the unquestioned subject-object duality subject I see, object that or whatever which is the cause of all our problems.
Seeing has seemingly been divided into seer and seen, thinker and thought, etc., on being pointed out that there is really no division, that the seeing, thinking is all there is, in which the thought, I see, appears, the seeming subject and the thought, I see the chair, the table, or whatever is being objectified by thought, both seer and the seen appear in the seeing, it is known without a doubt that the seeing cannot be divided into seer and seen. Understanding from this that there is no subject or any object with any substance or independent nature that can stand on its own, apart from the awareness consciousness, it is realized that it is the emptiness itself that is cognizing as seeing, hearing, thinking, etc.
There is no center, core or reference point to be fixated on or attached to from the erroneous belief in an imagined me, based on past events and experiences.

All that ever is, is the cognizing emptiness displaying the capacity to cognize in all its diversity. Appearance, disappearance, like the ocean, water, is ever displaying its capacity to appear as waves, ripples, spray, etc. Ever changing, never changing, still only water.
Elements, H2O, emptiness. All that ever is, is the cognizing emptiness displaying the capacity to cognize in all its diversity. Appearance, disappearance, like the ocean, water, is ever displaying its capacity to appear as waves, ripples, spray, etc. Ever-changing, never-changing, still only water, elements, H2O, emptiness. The original state, emptiness, is like the sky. The cognizing capacity, intelligence-knowing, is like the sun, naturally radiating energy. Just like the sky and the sun are never separate from each other, the cognizing emptiness and whatever appears is not too. The original state, emptiness, is like the sky.

An emotion is a movement of mind, not knowing itself. We get lost in the expression, like someone saying, I was out in the sun all day. You were not in the sun, you were in the expression of the sunlight. So we get lost in the experience, event, or conditioning, believing it to be the cognizing emptiness itself. So it is that in understanding that whatever appears is only an expression, an appearance of the pure intelligence energy, that is done by the laws of the 3-D universe, it is a state, a state that is seen and a state that is not seen. An emotion is a movement of mind, not knowing itself.

The difference is obviously seen. Recognize that spontaneous presence appears with no self-nature. It is beyond any substantiality or independent entity whatsoever.

A thought is an expression of knowing, awareness. A translation into words, ideas, images are seeming forms appearing in the emptiness, unmanifested intelligence energy.
Recognizing the essence, intelligence energy, emptiness knowing, the expression dissolves into emptiness. Like a ripple on water subsides into water, the emptiness remains just as it is.

We have been fixated on duality. Unfixated awareness is the answer. We have been fixated on duality. Unfixated awareness is the answer. One taste means nothing is possible. There is no act of fixating. The oneness is objectless, traceless. We may pretend that we have let go of dualistic fixation, but we may still believe in the concept of a state of non-duality. In order to be truly objectless, it is necessary to let go of those ideas. One taste means nothing is held. There is no act of fixating. The oneness is the act of fixating.

Anger is a feeling of aversion translated as avoiding, overcoming, getting rid of, resisting, not wanting, etc. Recognize the identity of that which thinks I. In the non-dual, how can there be the duality of realization or enlightenment or its lack? In the moment of seeing that the mind essence is no thing to see, in that very instant, you no longer need the duality of something seen and or someone that sees.

Non-dual, one without a second. Presence awareness, primordial purity, intelligence energy. All these labels are pointers to non-duality, which means exactly that. Non-duality, nothing other.

Unborn mind or unmade, present wakefulness, consciousness, awareness, cognizing awareness, I am-ness, etc., is simply the experiencing right now. For example, there is hearing of sound. That is because of the present wakefulness in the body. There is that knowing essence animating the body right now, enabling the hearing to take place. Without that living essence, the body is a corpse, and there is no consciousness that hears, no cognizing. The body does not experience. It is that knowingness.

Recognize self-existing, empty cognizance. It does not have to be made or created. It is not something new. It is an original state that is never lost. It merely needs to be known, the knowing itself, to be empty and cognizant. It is not something new. It is an original state that is never lost.

There is no true existence of subject and object. The mistake of duality comes about through not recognizing our natural, non-dual state. There is no true existence. of subject and object.
However, because of fixating on that which is experienced as object and that which is experienced as the subject, seeming duality of subject and object occur and is reinforced repeatedly, over and over, until it seems solid and real.
