Your
duty is to Be, and not to be this or that.- Ramana Maharshi
Be present
here and now be complete and perfect undivided by mental formations,
unfragmented by I, me, mine which are nothing but thoughts.
Just being is
the natural state of being, this is awareness, this is presence; sink into it,
and experience the vacant spaciousness, be patiently grounded there let the
mind settle and as presence becomes
transparent and clear watch thoughts appear and dissolve. Let all thoughts slow
down, let inner stillness arise and attention becomes focused fully rest in
this stillness. Just be and everything happens spontaneously and naturally
effortlessly; no need to push anything away or suppress anything, any doing or
effort would be an intervention just allow yourself -the ego-mind- to recede, all
will naturally work itself out. It is just being not doing that is required. When
dust settles, watch and contemplate the true nature of self. Being poised and
equanimous in the non-local vastness of natural state of being, unperturbed; it
is like the pointer of the scale at zero free, balanced, weightless. Similarly,
the self is free, peaceful just sitting in awareness. Now imagine weight placed
on scales causes jerky erratic movements of the pointer. Likewise, when
attention shifts from being to outward objects scrambling with identification,
grasping attachment to phenomenon of the mind, I awareness is now wobbly,
tilting towards the ego world of objects; I is burdened, teetering with excitement
or agitation and peace is disturbed. I am awareness is now I am agitated and
the space of presence is space of agitation.
Rooted steadily in presence, natural silence pervades the space,
observe the true nature -sense I am –that is suspended in openness immersed in
stillness, and observe the fading away of identification with body mind and
truth uncover spontaneously. Pass all assumptions drain out of being a person, idea
of a character, all data beliefs opinions of being a separate individual. Be
utterly vigilant because mind, it is still there, dormant, waiting to show up
and slip into to polarity; be circumspect for the subtle ego mind tricks to
take charge.
Do
nothing, just be. In being all happens naturally. Just be. Let your true nature
emerge. –Sri Nisargadutta Maharaj
Sit in aware presence do nothing, speak nothing, and think
nothing just watch as the truth about self unfold. This is spontaneous happening
beyond verbal description an occurrence to be experienced. The book of knowledge opens to those who trust
the process and just be; stillness speaks to those present who surrender to the
presence, just let go of doing just be and yield to grace.
🙏 May all
beings find success on the path to self-realization.
Thank you!!
