Who's Disclosure is Disclosure?

Sun Apr 14, 2019 2:16 am by Cyrellys

The narrative war is in full swing. When there's a 100 different competing narratives, how is it possible to discern a disclosure?

Is it akin to which truth is Truth?

    First topic message reminder :

    This is the continuation of the Immaterialism 6 thread.......

    The original topic reminder post https://openmindsforum.forumotion.com/t320-immaterialism
    should be substituted here......

    Please remember to confine you dialogue to matters that are pertinent to the topic of immaterialism/disclosure.

    Thank you.

    wow

    okay

    Joshu happens

    Joshu detests abstract concepts such as "the Way," "the
    Truth," or "Buddha." When still a young monk, he asks his master
    Nansen for "the Way." Nansen replies that "The moment you aim
    at anything, you have already missed it." Many years later, when a
    young monk came from far away to ask Joshu for his "teaching,"
    Joshu replies, "You have just entered the gate. Well then, let me
    spit in your face."

    If you run across Joshu and he spits in your face.....

    The natural state.

    Suspension of all judgment.

    Not liking or disliking anything.

    No names for any thing.

    There is nothing you are supposed to do.

    You just receive the buzz of life.

    A person of Tao unlearns every day.

    Until you arrive at non-doing.

    Rest in this awareness.

    It’s just about the most soft feeling.

    Floaty.

    Primordial.

    Like a warmness oozing over you.

    The words the words.

    The flow of things.

    No names here or prophets or visions.

    Just being.

    What use is this to the world?

    This is being with life.

    I didn’t learn anything.

    There is just nothing between you and the happening.

    Using models is poisonous to mind.

    That poison spills everywhere.

    Imagination can be terrible and innocent.

    The background of life is silence.

    But if you listen, you can hear that bell sound right below your perception.

    The always on ringing.

    Nothing is ever truly silent, just vibrating at different wavelengths.

    Your body is emitting photons right now in the infrared.

    I can’t say we will merge into nothing.

    I am surrounded by all things.

    But inside, underneath, I am groundless.

    Eeeeeek!

    What I do and what happens is part of the same process.

    From here it all flows.

    Like a spring erupting in a desert.

    You are not born, nor will you die.

    You happen.

    To have a point is to have a purpose, to be is the point, entanglement is the meaning.

    To entangle is to confuse.

    Look at how things are entangled then.

    Is it so depressing not have a point?

    Clinging to ideas and thoughts, to stories, isn’t the way.

    Eros will dissolve your connections.

    Not too much then, just enough.

    The ego is vicious and diabolical.

    I had to doubt all of it and even my self.

    We literally are made of serpents.

    We are the expression of our DNA.

    Call it what you want...

    Christ consciousness

    Buddha mind

    Atman

    There are probably a dozen more words or concepts or names for it

    It is simply what is

    You can't get outside of it to point to it

    Just go to work and eat your three meals

    The sun comes up without exception

    What could be said?

    The monad/The Powerful One within us has not been contaminated by the "poison" referred to earlier which is Narcissistic personality disorder as we would be devoid of consciousness if that were not the case.

    What could be said of the way?

    The way is everyday mind.

    What arises includes and transcends language

    Radical Zen is not for the crowds

    Who could know this spontaneous arising?

    What comes comes

    A UFO

    A Flower

    A Dan

    A smelly

    A 99

    what is the meaning of what arises?

    Who could know?

    And yet, what arises arises.

    The way to cut through being and non-bieng is radical Zen

    What is radical Zen?

    Ordinary beauty

    A flower

    A tree

    A face

    A rock

    A mountain

    The meaning is in the appearance

    You can charm the snakes with a flute or you can just smack them on the head

    You can kiss them too.



    I am going to die.

    Bam, hit me between the eyes too.

    I am still reeling from the shock of my death.

    What does it mean that death has come to me?

    Today I was lying in bed and I saw someone stoking ashes in a crematorium, they were my ashes.

    I saw the bones breaking down, I saw the red coals of my bones.

    I saw the iron pokers being used to separate the sections not burned right down.

    Imagining your cremation is very strange.

    It happened spontaneously.

    I looked at my ashes in the urn after and I thought, ah, my life reduced to nothing.

    It was very satisfying.

    Follow your bliss.

    Smile like you mean it.
