Dorothy Hunt’s splendid poem (which, imho, is as perfect and pithy a teaching as you will find), and the magnificent enso have been reblogged from the Science and Nonduality website.
Boundless gratitude!
Continuous awakening belongs to only
THIS! that is already continuously awake.
It will never belong to anything
that conceives of itself as separate.
No thought can touch it
No concept can describe it
No practices can produce it
No belief can create it
And memory cannot sustain it.
Whatever you can gain, you can lose.
You are not an experience that comes and goes.
The mind that lives in time can neither
experience the timeless, nor hold on to Spirit.
THIS is not an identity to attain.
Its revelation comes in the shedding of identities.
Whatever you may realize, avoid hiding in
a new identity, no matter what words your mind may use.
THIS cannot be limited; all concepts are only pointers.
Stop trying
Stop imagining
Stop waiting
Stop postponing
Stop fixing a self that you are not.
Stop pretending to be what you are not.
Stop, simply STOP.
Notice what silently remains.
THIS is here before seeking
THIS is here before awakening
THIS is here after awakening
THIS is here without words
THIS is here with words.
Only THIS that is awake, aware,
pure, naked, unstained, indivisible,
and perfectly Whole

Exhilarating. Raw. Roar.
Perfect response H! We roar as one. ❤
Potent reminders, Thank you! ❤
Thanks for reading, dear Bob – and commenting. Potent and pithy are the words that came to me. I love Dorothy’s poetic expression, it leaves nothing dangling for the intellect to swing on… 🙂
‘simply STOP’. Yes, rather than a truth or an injunction, it is the outcome of the experience-knowledge that is realization. But there is another, provisional, but usually necessary, truth: ‘Truth, reality, cannot be found by seeking, but only those who seek may find’.
It’s so true Alberto – Truth incessantly reaches out for Itself… disguised as “those who seek”. 🙂
Very well seen. Truth is comprehensive (if I know what I am saying) as well as paradoxical.
Wonderful poem, dear Miriam ..thank you for sharing it.
Right here, right now. *smiles*
