THE 1st RULE OF FREEDOM :)

The less you want, the happier you are. If you let go of everything and you don't want anything at all and you don't know anything at all, you're completely happy :)

This isn't some BS, it is so, I swear :) How could it not be?

But wait! If you ask: "how do I do it? How do I not want anything?", it means you've already been played by the old trick of thought. You've already turned this into the old game of wanting something, of scoring goals, right?

So watch out how the mechanism of thought operates. It's a very interesting but imaginary false movement, the process of thought.

So the not wanting and not knowing is not another positive endeavour, not another project for the "me", my self, and I, another goal to pursue, in time. "Tomorrow I'll have that. I'll meditate a lot and polish the stone until I'll make a mirror out of it :)

* Btw, unfortunately it doesn't mean we can ditch our jobs and not pay the rent this month. :)

 NOT KNOWING IS MOST INTELLIGENT.

We can say this or that but Freedom from the human condition (fear, sorrow), is the Unknown, NOT knowing, which is the absence of the product of thought and the basic distortion in observation called Horizontal Conflict(subject - object) or "the self"/me/myself/I, which means the whole mechanism of the ego is "offline". Knowledge is perturbation so the whole mechanism of the ego must be offline for there to be no perturbation.

All that only happens in the Universal Perception, which is the perception not directed towards any object, not directed towards any goal. It is the perception of the flow of the unitary undivided movement of the transformation of energy-matter, the Reality, the Universe.

The Universe is looking through your eyes.

 BE PASSERSBY

Don't get caught up in anything, any thing, any goal, that is the Universal Perception. That is the perception of everything as it is, without any attempt to control the flow of the movement and no choice.

That is the unknown objectless/goalless perception which means, among other things, to stop seeking experiences and sensations.

Don't try to change anything (that would be violence, wouldn't it?). If the perception goes somewhere, let it go, so be it. If it doesn't go anywhere, it's equally fine. Perceiving everything means allowing everything to arise, pass by and dissolve. No control, no direction and no choice.

Anger, fear, desire, million dollars, elation are the same to that perception, this or that that arises/emerges, and disappears/dissolves.

One transforming movement of energy-matter without any division.

* When it's not possible because there's hypnosis/horizontal conflict, it's what often is called occupation/work/job (working for a goal) and it has a function but has to be balanced with the peace of Universal Perception.

If you meed the Buddha on the road, kill him! :)

WHERE IS THE FUTURE?

The highest intelligence means letting go of the illusion of the self in Unitary Unfocused Universal Perception, because the self is also the biggest burden, fear and sorrow.

Aside of that, as far as I can see there is no "spiritual growth" really, nothing! It's a hoax.

"Growth" is a better toilet and a more comfortable cars that we have now.

One of the most instructive ways to grasp reality may be when we're considering the nature of time. Time vs Space. Horizontal life vs Vertical Life. Clearly they are not complementary. When one is, the other is not.

In the true movement, the real life, there is no future. The false imaginary illusive movement of becoming/the self/thought is the future. And the future is imaginary fear and sorrow.

Where is the future? :)

 REALITY

Reality is a free-flowing undivided unlimited unitary movement of transformation of energy-matter, the void. There is no subject, I, me, the experiencer, duality, in It.

The duality , the "horizontal conflict" of subject-object is an imaginary, false, illusory distortion of perception produced by imagination, the process of thought. 

Any purpose, motive, effort, concentration (and so distraction), direction, choice, goal, any attempt to control the free-flowing movement in any way is already that "horizontal conflict", the illusion of the horizontal life with its innumerable imaginary problems.

When the movement of emerging thoughts and memories is closely observed (without holding them and engaging in them and not as a technique of control on purpose but simply with interest in the mechanism of thought) and thereby let move freely, the horizontal conflict with its emotional response is not produced.

 THE FREEDOM AND THE PURSUIT OF PLEASURE

The futility of the horizontal life in time must be thoroughly understood. The horizontal life with it's goals, pursuits of experience and pleasure, becoming, effort, direction. choice, control, the horizontal conflict (subject and object, "what is" and "what should be"), the self, must be completely abandoned, let go, suspended.

The space that is the freedom from the false movement and waste of energy is the vertical life, UP, yoga, dhjana, zen or whatever way you want to call it. In other words, the vertical life, UP starts itself, it's not that "I start it", that it's my decision. Where there is the self, the experiencer, freedom, the real unitary universal unlimited movement is not.

The self, the false movement, trying to flip the script and reach the real movement and call it "UP", yoga, or Zen is like polishing a piece of stone to make a mirror out out it, it's a subtle but monumental mistake, it can never happen.

The self trying "UP", "nirvana", "enlightenment", means pursuing an idol, an ultimate prize, which is still in the domain of pleasure and experience, so still the self/the horizontal conflict, so not the real movement.

 THE ABUSE OF INTELLIGENCE

I truly do not understand why Chinese government do not just say we stop exporting all weapon components from today. This would mechanically cause the end of all warring all over the globe pretty fast. Isn't it in their interest? They must simply not think clearly and straight, no? They should be interested in peace so that their export-oriented economy can prosper, no?

MOST OR ALL HUMAN "ACTION" IS REALLY THE RE-ACTION, WHICH MEANS THE SELF/ THE HORIZONTAL CONFLICT.

You see.. MOST of human action (or ALL action that humans know!) has the SELF in it, no!? Effort, goal, motive, purpose, time, choice, direction, horizontal conflict.. These are all attributes of the self, no?

The self cannot do anything to be in UP.

Obviously, I, my self, cannot do anything to be in UP. I am the problem!

The blockage, misunderstanding.

The self can only dissolve when there is the understanding of its mechanism, the mechanism of the META process of thought.

UP is not something that the I/my self, the limited, imaginary, false movement does, quite obviously.

The Universal energy, unlimited, unitary, undivided movement, is that what IS all ready, it's the actual.

When the illusion of the self dissolves with understanding of the whole mechanism, there is the realization that the Universal movement, the universal energy is already there, working in the brain, right? It is all ready in the brain!

What is the OCD? Obsessive compulsive disorder? The SELF, no?

The self, the imaginary life, is alti-life, anti true life. So HOW CAN IT FUNCTION at the same time with UP? Can it?

All that also means that UP is not "conscious" as in 'I am conscious of "that"' 😊 subject - object = the self).

When there is consciousness/ duality/ division/ horizontal conflict, the self, me, there is no UP.

There is only One unitary universal movement. It can be called the Universe. And only THAT really ACTS. The other is re-action.

There can't be action and re-action functioning at the same time..

That is misunderstanding or wishful thinking. 

I cannot go and do the assignments at work in time on time, with measurement, effort, choice, motive, goal, direction, against the others trying to have some fun, etc. and in that conflict (horizontal conflict be in UP? Come on!

Than what? The illusion of the self, the horizontal conflict, the blockage, that is produced by thought must end/ dissolve for UP to be, right?

The illusion must be understood and it's the end of time, effort, choice, motive, goal, direction, etc.

The self ends, dissolves. 

And THAT means UP. UP then happens, all of itself. Not consciously, on purpose, with a goal, direction, control, choice and effort.

Not the other way round, that I will "try to meditate now for 0.5h" or "try UP"! :)

Where there is the self, there is no UP.

For the self there is nothing to "do" to be in UP. The self cannot be in UP.

Than if I work in conflict at work and "try UP" at the same time, what does it mean? 

A conflict! It's not really UP, it's an idol only, an idea. it's still conflict!

ALL CONFLICT MUST END, it must be dropped.

"Trying UP" when there is (in "my life" at the moment)  the (horizontal) conflict, effort, direction, choice, control is still the conflict! No?

Only the purpose is interchanged. The purpose can be complete the assignment from my boss at work or it can be "to be in UP" :)

But it's still the old self re-acting.

There is no consciousness of UP. Consciousness is of something (so duality, the horizontal conflict, the self).

Consciousness is one of the attributes of the self.

To consciously set out to "try UP" is still the self (subject and object). So it's not like that. The self must  end for UP to start.

They don't function at the same time.

EVERYTHING (that can be thought of) must end, must be dropped, must be let go. That is the end of the self, which means space and silence in which UP, the Universal energy can work, and it does, gladly, as old friend Meister Eckhart would perhaps put :)

That everything that must be dropped includes the ideal, the idol of the "UP", but you know this. Ruben said so, when he said "Allow yourself to not know".

Therefore work in which there is the horizontal conflict, a lot of jobs done practically in this society must be BALANCED with rest in peace in UP. 

Those two functions don't operate at the same time, if one is serious, if one seriously investigates.

What goes by the name of action in this society has the self in it..

Or maybe in ANY society, there must be some self to function, some functional self.

But if there was more UP in the society, there would be not so much of work connected with the self.

All days, trading for profit, power and prestige.. All days hunting something, busy, business, killing, chaos..

The universal energy/the Universe is that what IS, the actual. 

C is NOT what IS.

C is always BECOMING only. In time. From that what is to what should be, towards the goal, the illusion.

 THE ENVIRONMENT vs the ARMS RACE. 

Clearly, the climate and the environmental chaos scientists predicted decades ago is here. Yet it seems like our grasp on the reality of the situation is getting fuzzier. Rather than clarifying the need to get a grip on emissions, some politicians and media outlets are responding to spiking temperatures by dismissing the need for climate action.

The scientific and practical need for climate action has not stalled - it is stronger then ever. But the pace of the action, it is badly stalled.

It's all about the narrative from the politicians who are always robbing the crowd why spinning some narrative why it's necessary to do what they're saying. The narrative used to be warming, so we had to go in debt and make an "EV for everyone"). Now it's much more serious, the narrative is war/rearmament so we have to go in debt and make weapons, so no money for the environment anymore. "Sorry bud! But if you don't do what we say we will put you to prison or shoot you". In the name of the country and peace or whatever. The country needs to process you in the meat grinder for the greater good :)

But the real solution is not about doing MORE and MORE of something that we're doing (like AI, greenwashing, arms race and higher GDP) but stopping the constant abuse of intelligence and doing LESS in a sustainable way. That, they simply cannot say or do, either because they are in hypnosis or unwilling to do, because they would have to give up their profits. 

Did you know that In 1950, the global human population was approximately 2.5 billion people?

The current population of Earth is approximately 8.3 billion people.

Maybe it sounds like high time for some "funny games" by our "leaders"?

 THE UNIVERSE IS ACTING WITHIN YOU

If you understand what it means that Unitary Perception (UP)/ Dhjana/ Zen/ Yoga is the perception not directed towards any object (unfocused), you're still, silent and well rested (not sleepy), and you suspend all occupation in anything, that state of UP that what happens.

It means that the Universe is acting/ working within you (in the brain), or in other words, the Universe, the Void, The movement of Emptiness, is acting in Itself.

This state of spacious freedom may be intermittent with occasional hypnosis by thought but it's not a problem, the hypnosis will end and the state of spacious freedom will be there again.

FREEDOM FROM THE HUMAN CONDITION

The little fragmentary energy of thought dissolves in contact with holomovement of the universal undivided energy in Unitary Perception.

When there is the perceptual contact with the universal energy which is constantly (right now) entering the brain, the products of thought like time, conflict and the self dissolve..

Reality is the undivided unitary movement/transformation of universal energy and matter and the function of the brain is to completely reflect the reality, the True Life in the "vertical" dimension, where the illusion of time is absent.

As fear and sorrow are essentially thought, concentration on work and language must be balanced with resting in Unitary Perception, in which fear and sorrow can dissolve.

 THE ABUSE OF INTELLIGENCE AND FINANCIAL CRISIS OF THE META PROCESS OF THOUGHT

1) The governments make wasteful and corrupt decisions 

- wars

- misallocation of capital (rearmament/ military Keynsianism, arms race, space race, AI race, football competitions, etc.

- inequality/K-shaped economy 

https://www.visualcapitalist.com/countries-with-lower-gdp-than-elon-musk-net-worth-map/

2) Capital gets wasted abd misallocated by corporations and banks, misallocation of capital by the private credit firms and public stock markets.

3) Inflation increases, monetary authorities need to raise the cost of money/interest rates, the supply of cheap money dries up = FINANCIAL CRISIS

https://news.un.org/en/story/2026/06/1167658

THE ADAPTIVE SWARM

A new splendid military rearmament plan from the Polish "think tank" Strategy & Future: The ADAPTIVE SWARM. ARMY OF THE FUTURE. "The whole society and economy works for war as a living invisible shield. Everybody works for the war where he works.."

Isn't that a wonderful idea? Precisely what we need, no? A bit like a good old concentration camp for everyone? Splendid. It's always an option to fall back on reliable proven solutions! ;)

 UP = THE UNIVERSE

Yoga, Zen, Freedom, Unitary Perception, Universal Energy does not need to be sought. It cannot be lost! It is here already, all ready.

It is the true life in the vertical dimension of Being, instead of Concentration on some thing, doing something in the horizontal conflict produced by thought.

If we let go, suspend language and all illusions produced by thought, the I, me, mine, my will.. then what is left but THIS?

"How" means time already, the gap of misunderstanding, the mistake of hypnosis. Comparison, Measurement. Purpose/motive/goal.

Isn't it obvious? 

In the meantime, our richest genius with his trillions is planning a one way escape trip to MARS of all places! How's that for hypnosis, eh? :) After landing on Mars your heart will get crushed because of the difference in gravitation. If you stay on the surface you get cancer in a few weeks so dig a hole in the ground fast enough and install some gravitation counterbalancing mechanism. What a wonderful life, indeed! :)

Thanks Elon, enjoy the trip but I think I'll stay here for now, my friend! :)

And what's happening on the surface of the planet Earth? We keep on doing our delirious crazy dance. destroying it, our own habitable home. War, rearmament, conflict, politics, unsustainable economy, pollution.. How's that for hypnosis by thought?

FAITH VS REALITY

Do we need to live with belief, or with reality, that what actually is? What actually is happening is that people are violent and divisive. We destroy the planet. The majority of people love conflict, the arms race, huge waste of resources and constant bloody wars. Chaos. But we hope one day we will stop the rat race and the meat grinder.

That is our reality.

To live with faith is to live with an illusion, the ideal, "that what should be". I am violent buy I will be peaceful. I am a pawn controlled by the corrupt government and corporations but some day I will break free. I hope.

To pursue an ideal means to disperse energy, without breaking free from the domain of thought. 

Peace means resting in the Universal energy, not dispersing it in fight for a better "future". Give up the false horizontal life. Give the Caesar back what's his. It's not like we have a choice, right? 

When you seek anything, when you seek help it's already a mistake and a sign of confusion.

The limited false movement of the horizontal conflict, which is the essence of the subject, the ego, "me", my self, my will, the I, the noise, must come to a halt, not because I want to stop it or I want it to stop but because it is understood that it's an error, a useless illusion, imagination re-produced by thought.

Freedom lies in the extreme of detachment from that what should be, the imaginary life in time.

 DISTORTION

You're only making a mess by trying to put things straight. It's because "you" are just an imaginary invention of thought. Thought produces "you" by dividing/classifying reality into "you" (the subject) and "not you" (the objects), thereby inventing the fundamental horizontal conflict, the gap of time (from here to there), the distortion in perception.

Thought/memory can act rationally in the physical world (build a house, etc.) by dividing the reality into the subject and objects. However as it builds (in memory) an intricate imaginary me/ thinker/ ego/ controller it realizes that the me is burdened with vast and deep problems, like time (death), attachments, anxiety, pleasure, fear, sorrow, depression. Thought then erroneously/irrationally tries to act on the problems of the me as if the me was separate from thought. That frictional erroneous movement of thought obviously doesn't solve anything but it disperses energy to no avail and makes the problem even bigger.

The futility of this part of the META process must be thoroughly understood. There is no self help or self improvement, the evolution of the self. The self can only become silent and still which happens when it understands what happens and there is nothing rational for it to do.

 THE REALITY AND MEMORY

Unitary (Unfocused, Universal, Undivided) Perception (UP) is the realization that there is Universal energy operating in the brain. The energy is a reflection of the Universe. What sees is all there is.

Thought can describe what happens if it acts as a tool of the Universe. But the description, the memory of the fact and the perception of the Universal movement of energy in the brain cannot happen at the same time. There is either the perception of the fact, the reality, or thought, memory of it. The knowledge gathered by thought blocks the perception of reality.

Thought cannot function at the same time with the movement of the Unitary unfocused undivided energy because thought produces the division into the subject (the "me") and the object ("not me") - the horizontal conflict, which is a fundamental distortion of perception.

The perception of thought (the horizontal conflict) and the UP of Universal energy in the brain cannot function at the same time. Where there is the limited movement of thought with its horizontal conflict operating in the brain, the reality of the Universal unitary movement is blocked. The Universal movement is the Unknown, it's not correlated with knowledge.

The correct function of the brain is to reflect the constantly transforming reality. That function is realized by UP, not the mechanism of memory and its response, thought.

PLEASURE

A complete self denial, could that be wonderful? :)

If you want to indulge your self, think you need some regular or some special treat, deny it, negate all desires that rear their heads and see what happens.

Do not allow yourself to have any pleasure and observe what happens. Is it possible? Why do I need pleasure at all? Maybe constantly needing and planning pleasures means an unnecessary dispersion of energy to no avail at all?

How about being still and silent instead? No direction to go, no running back and forth in chaos. Just being watchful without any effort, without any purpose or goal.

 THE AGE OF GRIFT

Does it mean that I have a chip on my shoulder if I tell you I don't understand how 2+2=3?

Our so called governments invest in killer drones, electronic mines and submarines, stuff like that, instead of new homes when one has to audition to rent a room in a big city. That it doesn't make sense to me is an understatement. When 2+2=3 I simply don't get it.

No, kill me but I simply don't get it when all the suits on TV agree that using the program SAFE to fund the the arms race is actually making us all more safe.

Why are there countless football competitions all the time and no money for modern healthcare for everyone, I don't get it.

When Sam Altman and Elon Musk tell me that I need data centres in space and occupy Mars and are subsidized by the government with public money, I don't get it. I don't get it when some guy advertising his company tells me I need to manufacture quantum computers on the Moon.

 THE HORIZONTAL CONFLICT OF FEAR AND WASTE OF ENERGY

Living all days in the imaginary horizontal conflict produced by thought (the division of thought into the subject and the object) means living in fear. Thought has to plan for everything so that we don't lose too much of pleasures. Also thought has to plan for cancer and the like. Ultimately you have to prepare for the eventuality of your unfathomable end. So you have to save for your funeral too :)

So what is your boss hates you and wants to save on you? Or if the stock market crashes and your retirement pension goes puff in the bubble? Turns out it was all just printed toilet paper and electronic impulses somewhere nobody knows where. Oh, and don't you worry, the generals and ministers have spent your pension on the arms race and wars anyway :)

This is the content of the brain in the fragmentary perception of thought. Fear, sorrow, anger. Analysis, paralysis, planning. Some of it may be functional but most of it is just worrying and unnecessary dispersion of energy.

 THE VOID

A good writer wrote a great joke once. They take a guy in a rocket to the outer space and tell him: "Get out!" And he says: "Fine!", and he gets out. :) 

Void to void.

There exists an irrational form of thought process and it's essence is the perceptual distortion of reality, the horizontal conflict (the division of the thought process into the "subject" and "object"). 

But in reality what sees is all there is, what we are looking at is what looks! That is the undistorted (by thought) perception of reality.

There is only one undivided unitary movement of reality (the Universe). There is nothing that is separate, no "self". The self/the ego is an illusion produced by thought.

What are we clinging to then? What is there to be attached to? What is there to desire in the Void?

Do not try to avoid the Void, it's futile, impossible.

 I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING.

I don't know anything. If that is really so, that I don't know anything at all about anything, then what happens?

I don't know anything about anything, any definition, how anything happens or how it's possible. I don't know who I am, I don't have any goals, motives, preferences, choices, direction, no control, no effort, I don't know what I should or shouldn't do.

I don't know what to do at all. Then what happens? I can't do anything. I can't move. I stop. I'm in complete stillness and silence. That means watching, listening intently (the Universal energy working in the brain) without the observer in the observation, without the controller, the "me", which is all the knowledge.

Doing, pushing, exercising my will, involves time and the "me" (I do "it", subject -object). Purpose, goal, direction, definition..

Being happens all by itself. 

Just open your eyes and ears.

SILENCE

What is the silence? It's the absence of the product of thought that's called the I, the "me". What I want or what I don't want, my plans, my sorrows, frustrations and preferences, pleasures and fears, my knowledge, motives, effort, choices, control or time.

UP (Unitary Perception/ Universal Perception/ Unfocused Perception) is the realization that the Universal energy is all ready in the brain and working. Nothing else is required but this realization. 

At the instant of the realization, which is always "at the beginning" and never "at the end" that can be sought and reached, thought ceases producing the horizontal conflict (the split into the subject - object). 

You (thought) cannot sustain UP, you don't start it or make it constant. There is so little or no UP because there is so much "you". Occupation, work, pleasures and fears, hypnotic movies, TV, radio, music, "meditation", self-help, life coaching. All the false non-functional re-actions of thought, all the noise and chaos, must be dropped.

Just realize that the Universal energy is already in the brain. You don't have to make any effort or choice. It does not require control, effort or purpose. Let everything go, suspend all occupation, and listen in silence and stillness. Only the limited false illusory movement can leave you :) That's what's real is always all ready here. The only problem is the META Process (of thought), which re-acts as a blockage, always  something to "do", a new plan of re-action, effort, choice, control, motive, goal, purpose, time.

66 millions years later nature/evolution has done much better with the central banksters/politicians and billionaires scraping natural resources/metals off the earth, building rockets and ejaculating them into outer space (small penis syndrome*? ;) I won't mention of "heroic" ppl throwing bombs seemingly for some sick pleasure that is hard to fully grasp :) We have also been busy poisoning the rivers, seas, soil and air. 

What an abuse of intelligence and waste. But oh, we now have so called Artificial Intelligence telling us what to do, so no problemo! :)

* Small penis syndrome (SPS), also referred to as penile dysmorphic disorder, is a psychological condition. It is characterized by an obsessive preoccupation and extreme anxiety that one's penis is too small, even though it falls well within the normal, healthy size range.

 COMPLETE SECURITY IN NOTHINGNESS

The imaginary product of the META Process, the "thinker", the ego thinks (really it's thought of course) along these lines: "I live from the cradle to the grave, I will pop off at some point in the "future", I will get sick, I will lose everything." Thought (which produces this illusion of the "me"/the thinker) means a struggle, striving towards some lasting satisfaction (always in futility), duality, confusion, conflict, fear, sorrow, anger, choice, effort, control, purposes, goals, directions. Non-functional thought (thought that is not needed for survival of the organism is chaos, noise and unnecessary dispersion of energy.

In the Universe there is nothing that does not change, everything is a transformation and there IS only that one unitary undivided movement of transformation of matter and energy.

Only in contact with that holomovement, which is Unitary Perception is there true rest and freedom from the human condition. There is a complete security in nothingness - the void of the Universe.

 YOU ARE THAT.

"You are That" does not mean that the "you" (thought/ the thinker/ my self, I, me my "consciousness", the ego, the superego, etc :) that thinks it's somehow separate from everything "else", That - the Universe.. That's absurd!

It means that there IS only the unitary movement of the Universe, that it's a transformation of matter-energy, and it includes the brain and thought. Thought is also a little energy in the brain, that is not separate from the whole movement of the Universe. 

There is no "you" that is separate from the unitary undivided movement.

What sees is all there is, the Universe.

MADNESS

In this world of the human society the question is what is the level of "madness" that people exhibit. It can be higher or lower but it's always there (it can be hidden as a potential to erupt). To throw bombs on each other in hypnosis by thought (so called hatred) can be viewed as a pretty highly injurious level of madness, obviously :)

Moreover, most people do not even know WHY the world is (going) crazy. In fact there's evidence that people have been always going crazy, in the year -1000 they were fighting with some sticks probably :) and in the year +1000 they were killing themselves with metal swords (crazy! :) Now they've grown very "sophisticated" and they are shooting rockets and drones at each other from afar! :)

All the supposedly wise guys in suits on TV do not ever say why it is so that we must shoot rockets at each other. What a peculiar racket it all is! :) Who, what has producing, who is causing all this madness? How does it happen? Nobody asks! They only say (it is imperative) that we do MORE if it. All the serious noble eggheads seem to agree. Isn't it crazy? Like pretty high on the scale of crazy, no? :)

AM I DOING IT RIGHT?

"Before the donkey has left, the horse has already arrived."

If you're worrying if you are "doing it right" according to the "definition", "perceiving everything perceivable" or if it's "100FM", don't! It may be a mistake. In fact, the only problem may be you (thought) "trying" anything at all. "You" constantly making a problem out of something. Let go of everything. Allow yourself to not know. 

Just be still and silent, forget about everything, and the world will take care of itself. If you let go of  everything, the definitions, the goals, choice, control and effort, the world will find peace without any problem at all. The world is always exactly where is should be, which is where it is. And it will find itself, because it's never really lost.

 For the poor baboons being at the bottom of the baboon society means being depressed.

For the human monkey it doesn't have to be so! 

In fact for the human monkey it's best to be so far down in the society psychologically that one is completely out of it, so far out that nothing is left of him anywhere :) 

"I am what I am" simply means that what IS, that what is happening (vs "that what should be", what thought imagines should be happening, what I'm counting on in the future, what I want, what I choose and prefer to be).

 HOW DOES IT HAPPEN?

People say that Unitary Perception (UP)/ Zazen/ Yoga/ Dhjana, etc means doing this or that.. But what is it actually? How does it happen? Who does it?

UP is defined as the perception that is not directed towards any object (produced by thought), so without a motive (by thought), direction - concentration or hypnosis - (by thought), and effort (by thought).

Obviously, the "I" cannot "do" UP, because the I is an illusion produced by thought in the fragmentary perception, the distorted perception with the imaginary the horizontal conflict (the imaginary split into the subject - object).

So does thought do UP? Obviously not. Can thought "silence" itself? Obviously not. Thought can only understand that all it can do is to produce illusions and chaos (by thinking). Perhaps we could say that thought becoming silent is UP but it does not happen by thought. If it happened by thought, it would mean only more thought.

It is the unitary undivided movement that can be called the Universe that is in UP/ Zazen/ Dhjana. The Universe is in UP in the brain and at the same time (that is when) thought becomes silent.

That is what thought must understand. When it becomes silent in UP. It is important to understand because UP is not a mechanical activity, i.e. what happens in the horizontal conflict produced by thought. Thought reaching UP is just another action of thought, so an illusion, with a motive, direction, effort, control, direction, time, choice, knowledge, which is all thought. So this will never happen. Thought does not "DO" anything, it never does anything actually, it can only plan doing something. The only thing thought can DO is to become silent (by UP). It's a mistake, a misunderstanding (to think) that thought can DO anything. It cannot! 

Thought obviously cannot really say "I am the Universe" either, it's absurd. When thought becomes silent in UP, the Universe (and the perception of It) IS. When thought is operating in the fragmentary perception, as the "me", I, my self - with the illusion of the horizontal conflict (the duality of subject - object) - purpose, goal, motive, choice, control, effort, expectation, time, the perception of the Universe, the Universal Perception gets blocked.

But thought can perhaps be a tool of the Universe when it correctly reflects (by description) the Reality, i.e. That what is happening. Also it is useful and functional in the technical realm, to design a bridge, build a car, a house, organize healthcare and proper education, etc.

UP = the Universe. UP IS the one unitary movement of the Universe. UP is at the beginning (without time), and not at the end. The energy of the Universe (light - the electromagnetic energy, sound, gravitation) is already all ready in the brain (in the posterior brain).

So when you see you "slipped back" to hypnosis there is no "gently moving ban to perceiving.. whatever" - that is still thought, effort, duality, choice, motive, right? UP, the Reality, the Universe, the Void happens all at once by Itself (by the Universe), without effort, choice,motive, knowledge, definition(!) when there is the realization that there has been hypnosis (by thought)! It's waking up  (Second Awakening after sleep) or "awake"! Definition is not required for UP, in fact it is what's blocking it too (although UP can be correctly defined and described by thought). But in UP, in the actuality, its definition gets transcended. One LETS oneself to NOT KNOW.

In stillness and silence, hypnosis happens by itself and UP happens by itself. The Universe does it all, because in fact there is nothing else but the Universe. The best thought can do is to LET IT happen, complete letting go. This is the best thought can "do" - nothing. Stillness and silence without a motive, control, choice and time. 

UP means doing nothing, just not avoiding the Void (by thought).

 X: Why are you doing this?

Y: Because the best way to learn is to teach (your self). The best way to teach is to learn.

And I like it.

Sorri not sorri :) 

 Who am I?

Who am I, the thinker, a product of thought which seeks experiences, sensations and pleasures and tries to avert what it deems unpleasant? That product of thought that gathers the things it likes into the "me" and "mine" and wants to fix and control his domain closely so that  nothing ever changes unless it wants something to change :) 

 It imagines that it's divided from everything else (the "environment", the objects), lives in time, from here to there, from birth to death, from the cradle to the grave :) But in the meantime has these very important plans and extremely important attachments, that cannot be abandoned.

When it loses a part of its domain (action of "the world"/"what's not me" vs the "me" :), it suffers a nervous tantrum, a bout of sorrow or a so called "depression" Boo hoo :) - it is the sorrow and depression itself in fact. It clings to all its possessions for its shoddy dear life at all cost. 

It is that limited movement that is constantly (always only in imagination) striving away from that what is by hypnosis ("involuntary") or concentration ("voluntary"). A very funny invention of thought, tragicomical in fact. A perfect script of a jester's tear ;)

"Or can I hear the echo from the days of '39?"

Yeah, only back then we didn't have nukes.. 

Some folks just looove having a BLAST, so to speak..

 THOUGHTS AND CONSCIOUSNESS

X: There are thoughts that trouble me..

Y: Thoughts can trouble or torture you because you (thought) have divided yourself from them (thoughts) as the so called "subject"/controller/the "I"/the self, which is the horizontal conflict (subject - object), a basic distortion in observation, produced by you (thought). And now you're trying to control thoughts, overcome them, escape them, do something with them.

But that's an impossibility, you can only escape, grab a drink, but  they will return, for they are you. You don't realize that you are actually not divided from the supposed "your" thoughts.

Once you understand that consciousness is its content, i.e. there is no consciousness/"I", my self without the content ("my" thoughts), not intellectually but for a fact, that there are only thoughts and consciousness is a myth, the problem ends.

In the factual, undistorted perception of reality, the perception of what really is happening, there may (or not) be thoughts (together with the whole movement of reality) but there is no consciousness/me/I/my self.

That's the only solution. Otherwise you can get addicted to alcohol or drugs, go to a war, commit a suicide, pray, meditate or start to energetically tidy up the room every time :) Knock yourself out.

 CONSCIOUSNESS AND DEATH

To you who lies in bed at night, thinking about something, e.g. dying, etc. :)

Some say you should divert your attention somewhere "else" like.. to escape the 

fear.

But I'd like to ask: who are you that says he/she is afraid and why do you feel 

you have to escape the fear?

Maybe you should investigate what death is and who you are.. Who is afraid of 

death? It's the imaginary product of the brain called the "I" that is afraid, or 

in sorrow and it is itself fear and sorrow.

So you cannot escape fear, you are it, you are just sweeping the problem under the 

rug, but it will rear its ugly head again and again, and you will try to fight it 

in vain.

What you can do is to understand the whole issue. The product of thought called 

"you" does not really exist. That is a fact. There is no consciousness per se. 

Consciousness is produced by thought.

So why is there fear? Because this imaginary product of though persists and 

produces its imaginary projections and attachments.

When the content of consciousness, all of the attachments and illusions disappear 

in silence, there is no problem.

Only the silence through everything goes unobstructed is a solution, the silence 

is understanding of the problem, not an escape.

For fear to disappear you have to die ("psychologically"), without any effort, choice, control or self-pity. And it happens all of itself in stillness and silence when you have understood that what is, which means you are not attached to anything, which means you are nothing.

 THE HUMAN CONDITION

There seem to be two distinct approaches to freedom from the "human condition".

1) Attempt it, try to find it, do something to reach it ("the other shore"). 

But then there will be "freedom"/"my will", which I want AND that what I don't want (not my will), which is.. that what is (fear, sorrow, anger). So isn't it a conflict? The illusion of the horizontal conflict produced by thought (subject-object)?

2) Why do "you" even have look for "freedom"? Who are you, the seeker? Aren't "you" the self, your will, so the fear, the problem itself? 

You are looking for freedom because you cling to something, aren't you? You are attached to something that is transient, something in the world that you would like to be fixed, and it makes up your "self", what you want and what you don't want is what your self is, it is what you are.. But the world is a constant transformation, so it's constantly sleeping through your fingers.. You know you're losing (everything you hold will and must be lost, and you know it). 

So you are afraid, or to put it more simply, YOU are FEAR, sorrow and anger, because you don't want to let go, you don't want, or you want, does not matter, it's the same. Therefore the world is testing you, you are petrified whenever there is some sort of crisis in "your life", you live in fear.

But unfortunately or fortunately you can't be attached to anything in the world that is constantly changing. This cannot be done. It's a fact. You can "try" but it's just an illusion produced by thought. It can work for a short while (maybe!), until the next crisis. But that what's real, the truth, is always at the back of your head.

So for those monks who seek freedom from fear, is there a different solution then to be indifferent? Let go of everything that you love ("my will"), give it up without any self-pity. And don't mind that what you hate happening ("the will of the Universe")?

Do not cling to anything, do not be attached to anything, do not choose anything, do not have preferences. Completely negate the imaginary movement forward produced by thought, that is called "time" or the "future". If possible, be silent and still.

Fortunately or unfortunately there is no other way, and if you don't let everything go, you will always live in fear.

If you bump off yourself it's ok, same when you go help children in Africa. Problem is that peeps are doing the same thing when they strive to become presidents to escape from yourself, go to fight in a jungle somewhere, bombing cities, killing millions of civilians. It's all the same, an escape because you cannot bear your self.

 WU WEI

Ruben Feldman Gonzalez: The Unknown means, among other things, to stop seeking experiences and sensations.

The superproduct of thought called the "I" is always in search for some more futile entertainment :) and as man is probably just a natural fool ;), it may take a lot of "soul searching" to find out that you just don't know. I cannot know. All trying to find is in vain to find nothing.

Freedom cannot be sought. Why? Because "you" are the process (the META Process of thought) that is the denial it it. So freedom is where you are not.
"I am the Universe" - when thought is saying this, it's not actually true. Who is really saying this? You, me, my self and I :) The Universe does not say it's Universe. It's a game of language, a game of hope, delusion, more entertainment.

"You" are the disturbance (the horizontal conflict). All you striving has to be understood both in the "material" world and in the so called "spiritual" world. Not wanting anything means understanding what wanting is.

If there is a definition of freedom in the brain (that has to be adhered to) or any purpose to strive to, it's not actually freedom. Any control, effort or choice is the illusive horizontal conflict produced by thought (subject - object), the source of all distortion of perception.

Striving to be somewhere else means to lose peace and freedom. If you try to control too much you may not even be able to sleep at night. Let it go. Don't try to interfere in the flow, it doesn't need you, it flows all by itself.

It does not matter if "you" have a problem with that what is or try to intervene in what is (in vain) or not. All that can ever be is what is.

 HOW TO REST FROM TOO MUCH KNOWLEDGE :)

“Let us not call defense a rearmament that increases tensions and insecurity, deprives investment in education and health, undermines trust in diplomacy, and enriches elites who care nothing for the common good.” 🎯
- The guy called "Pope".

To know anything is a more subtle or more crude disturbance of the brain, an imbalance, a burden.
To know something can be functional for work but we are frequently occupied with non-functional knowledge, unnecessary burden which often touches on the Thymic level of the META Process of thought (triggering emotions of fear, sorrow, anger).

How to not know one could ask.. How can I take some rest from all the circus? First of all one can temporarily suspend all the noise, cut off the contact with the media, TV, radio, music, books, language, chatter, the Internet..

Then one can suspend all DOING. In the state of silence and stillness all the disturbance caused by thought may naturally decrease as thought has to react to less stimuli, it doesn't need to DO anything.

Don't do anything. Don't go in any direction. Let everything go as it wants to, whatever happens, do not interfere, do not try to choose or control the flow, do not make any effort on any purpose.

Though in spite of that thought may keep returning and hypnotizing you, it's OK, don't worry about that either. Why should you be afraid of any memories coming back? Let everything go without fighting it, without trying to change it. You are nothing.

You will keep waking up from the hypnosis too (the second awakening after night sleep), do not choose this over that. Just be silent and still. Let everything come and go through you, for you are really nothing, simply pure emptiness.

 DON'T MIND

Not knowing anything (The Unknown) is pretty good! :)

But what may be even better ;) is not minding anything, not being bothered by anything, not having any preferences, not choosing anything, not going in any direction, not trying to control anything, making no effort, having no purpose, not exercising any will, not wanting anything at all (I want, I don't want).

Once there was a guy who was worried that he would have nothing to do anymore. "Man! All that time and nothing to do? How is it possible to take THAT predicament?" :) Sooo depreeessing, so saaad.. Unbearable. Boohoo.. :)

But really he must have been clearly a fool.. Well.. well! Nothing to do! How about THAT!? :) Thanks for everything! I don't have any complaints whatsoever. :)

Nothing do do
On a cold rainy day
The passing cars sound almost like the sea
Doves cry
Drills the rocks.

Thanks Basho.

 PUSHING WITH EFFORT

In the physical world "pushing it" may be sensible, sometimes we need to use force, of the muscles, persistence, build tools, machines to build a dam or a bridge, transform the "environment" ("me"/subject vs the "objects).

BUT in the psychological world (the "internal" world of the subject/ "me"/the "I") pushing it is absurd, because there is nothing to transform, as the "me" is a fictitious product of thought!

Today's "I" has nothing to do with yesterday's "I", there is no "I" continuing through time, from a moment ago till now, this mysterious entity is simply a product of thinking and it probably evolved a long time ago to perform action on the "outside" world, using the functional horizontal conflict, the illusion of the split between the subject and object, produced by thought, like "We have to store some food for "tomorrow".

Really that was IS is only and always the full undivided unitary flow of the Universe and that is our direct experience and perception (Unitary Perception), which thought denies by inventing the horizontal conflict, with the subject/the centre of experience/ the Self/the "I".

But thought cannot really deny that what is real. Only that what is unreal, the illusory products of thought like the Self can be negated. All thought can do is to TRY to negate the truth, again and again, with effort, purpose, control, choice, etc., imagining the "me" by producing the split of the horizontal conflict.

It's easiest to be free of the illusion (all illusions) in stillness and silence, without any purpose as then the horizontal conflict is not required to be produced by thought to perform any action (on purpose).

That means not doing anything at all, letting everything go, not worrying about anything, no wanting anything, not trying to control anything or make any choice. not knowing anything, not trying to be anything. Where you are, it is not. If you are not, it is here.

 TIME

What is time, not the time on the clock but the psychological time? Is it time when a memory from 10 years ago appears when w're walking in a forest awoke? No, then the memory is just in the flow of the whole energy, there is no problem, it comes and goes away very fast.

For time to appear there must be a purpose, so the horizontal conflict (what is vs "what should be"/the ideal). I live in Berlin but I love Paris and want to move there, maybe I will be able to do that in 10 years when I save enough money (usually never happens of course). The gap from here to there is time. What's in between this conflict is effort, sorrow, fear, choice, control, expectation, etc. Another name for that is I, me, my will, my self, the ego.

So time is the ideal vs that what is. And time can also be something we call spiritual, something we strive for, make effort for, try to control like the idea of "God", "Yoga", "Unitary Perception", "Meditation". We want to reach the ideal, which is our own projection, so again it's in the domain of the self, it's actually pretty silly :) It's like the dog chasing its own tail.

Zen, the unitary movement of the Universe, UP, Yoga, the Void, etc. cannot be controlled, it is flowing or not. When we try to control it, we disrupt the flow and disperse energy in futility, no? So when hypnosis by thought happens do we have a choice? No. It just happens, perhaps because we work a lot, thought has a lot to think about, a lot of purposes, expectations, a lot to analyse, which is the hypnosis by the META Process of thought.

When we wake up from the hypnosis (the Second Awakening), it happens spontaneously too, it's not something that "I've done.", it's just how the Universe works, without any control. It's one Flow, one unitary movement, without a problem, if we/thought does not make problem out of it.

 THE FREEDOM

Freedom from the human condition (fear, sorrow, anguish, conflict, etc.) is the state of the brain in which there is no illusion of the Horizontal Conflict (subject-object), which is produced by thought.
The freedom is "That what is" (Sunya, the Universe, Void, UP, Dhjana, etc) without "That what should be". Ppl mostly spend their days in the state of striving towards "That what should be" ("concentration", "occupation", running after something, control, effort, my will, purpose, choice etc) and again, it is an illusion produced by thought.

Without that state of the brain, the human endeavours carried with lots of effort, like politics, fighting for democracy, activism, reforms, etc. are futile. They will never work. Nothing will ever work but the Freedom, which is the end of illusions and all psychological suffering.

We are quite urgently in need of coming to the realization there is not me, myself, my will or I, that is divided from the stream of "environment" or the one flow of everything, the Universe.
Otherwise we will go mad. We're going to commit suicide, "individually" by shooting ourselves, consuming poison, dying from anger in the rat race abusing our intelligence, or collectively courtesy of the nuclear bomb.

 

LET GO OR STOP IT.

Should one "let the mind go where it wants", which implies no control or choice, as Jiddu Krishnamurti suggests or should one "withdraw from "running into the multiplicity of things", which implies some control and choice, and which Meister Eckhart suggests?

This is the ultimate "spiritual fork in the road." At first glance, Jiddu
Krishnamurti and Meister Eckhart seem to be giving you opposite directions: one tells you to take your hands off the steering wheel, while the other tells you to put the car in the garage.

However, if we look closer, they are describing the same process from two different angles. They both want you to reach the same destination: a state where the "Self" (the "Me") is no longer the master of the house.

1. The Krishnamurti Way: "Let the Mind Run":

When JK says to let the mind go where it wants, he isn't advocating for "daydreaming" or "indulgence." He is advocating for Choiceless Awareness.

If you try to control your mind, who is the "controller"? It is just another fragment of your thought. You end up with one part of your brain trying to boss around another part, which creates conflict, friction and noise.

By letting the mind go where it wants while watching it intently, you see the "nature of the beast." You see that your thoughts are just mechanical reactions to the past. When you truly perceive that your thoughts are just repetitive noise, the mind naturally slows down and becomes silent. Not because it is forced, but because it sees its futility.

2. The Meister Eckhart Way: "Withdraw from Multiplicity":

Eckhart’s Abgeschiedenheit (Detachment or Disinterest) sounds like an act of will, but it’s actually a form of Negation.

Our minds are usually scattered among a thousand things (the "multiplicity"). We are worried about money, work, our social status, relive our memories or plan special experiences in the "future" ("that what should be"). This process (the META Process of thought acting in the fragmentary perception) prevents freedom, peace or the "Ground" from being present.

"Withdrawal" isn't about hiding in a cave or seeking special experiences and sensations, it's about not being attached to the transient images and forms in the world of Void. It’s refusing to let the circumstances effect the freedom and peace of being Nothingness.

By withdrawing from the many, you return to the one movement of the Universe. You become idle, creating an empty space where energy, space and freedom of that what IS, the Universe, can enter.

3. Reconciling the Two: The "Invisible Choice":

The conflict between "No Control" (JK) and "Withdrawal" (Eckhart) is largely a matter of semantics. They both describe letting go of the ego. You "withdraw" (Eckhart) from the world of transient illusions and objects produced by thought by "watching" (JK) how your mind tries to run toward it.

If you "let the mind go" but you aren't aware, you're just a leaf in the wind. If you "withdraw" by force, you're just a prisoner in a cell. The "sweet spot" is Choiceless Awareness (Unitary Percepiton) without effort or control.

4. 2026 Application:

The Krishnamurti approach would be to watch yourself scrolling through the news and noticing the exact moment a headline triggers fear, sorrow or greed. Now ask yourself: why does it happen? Why do I feel fear or sorrow? - It's because I want something, I am attached to something, something "that should be" instead of "that what is" (something that's already here!), right? That's clearly a conflict, which can never be resolved as long as I'm attached to something. By watching it all, the whole movement produced by the META Process in the psychological realm, the "spell" of the algorithm is broken.

The Eckhart approach would be to realize that running to the "multiplicity" of the transient world is a waste of energy that keeps you from the "Ground." You withdraw not out of "discipline" but out of a realization that the noise is valueless.

It’s like a browser with 100 tabs open. Krishnamurti says: "Look at all the tabs and realize they are all nonsense." Eckhart says: "Close the browser." Both leave you with a clean desktop.

You should let the mind go (JK) only to see that its "running into multiplicity" (Eckhart) is an exercise in futility. The "control" isn't a muscular effort to stop thoughts, it's the Intelligence that realizes that there is thought but there is no thinker and that what actually sees is the one unitary movement called the Universe.

Do you feel like your mind is "running" right now because it's looking for an answer, or can it sit idle with the fact that both teachers are essentially pointing at the same Stillness and Silence?
