Articles, Meditations & Musings
Presence is the perfect state in which nothing can be added or subtracted. It is a state of completeness. Presence is the master's teacher. When you study with presence you learn from perfection.
Lineage and Syncretism
On the medicine path, deeper immersion leads to a greater appreciation of the places we've visited and the spaces that have impacted us. We learn the technology and language involved, come to respect its complex ecology and it becomes crucial to learn how to translate this knowledge. The new language we acquire differs from our own, gifting us perspective and teaching us to look differently.
Receiving the Gift of Life
Wherever we go in our life, whatever we do, no matter how far we travel, we must always remember that we are not separate from nature. Nature is our being.
True Freedom
True freedom is allowing all phenomena to be exactly as they are. To let everything be just as it is. Coming and going, arising and passing away.
Wisdom of the Unknown
What is known is only relative to our position, to our experience. We think we know the colour of something, yet someone else sees it slightly differently. We think we know the speed of something, yet from a distant nebula, that speed is something else. We think we know the view of the great Milky Way, yet we only look from one tiny perspective.
Spiritual Bypassing
Spiritual bypassing is like painting over rust: it may look fine on the surface, but the corrosion continues underneath. True spirituality isn't an escape route from life's challenges or a licence to neglect responsibilities. It's a deep engagement with reality, in all its messiness.
On Awareness
Life will show you where you are hiding, where you are running from life, where you fear the end of life and risk ignoring the outcome then continue to pursue ignorance. Realisation awakens you from the dream of ignorance, which means simply not to know, or even to know but to ignore the fact.
Contemplating Impermanence
The realisation of impermanence is not a philosophical one. It is embodied at the cellular level of our being and experienced with such finery that it serves to shift our dimension of seeing in such a way that any rigidity is carried into the river.
Rest in Effortless Presence
Abiding in the present moment is abiding in the presence of the moment. It is a living radiance, a vibrancy that can happen nowhere else. The only place where you will ever be alive is this present moment.
Uncovering Identities
Just as an actor assumes many roles throughout their career, we each don an array of identities throughout our lives. These identities, like the costumes of an actor, change according to the scenes we play out on the stage of life.
Enlightened Presence
When you enter into this presence, it starts to work on you. It’s a purifying process, like submerging in freshwater and scrubbing yourself clean of yourself. There is no effort needed on behalf of your intelligence or body. It happens by itself when left alone, without your involvement, without your interference.
The Ground of Being
When all fades away, what is left is the ground of being. Its ground is groundless. Its language is wordless silence. And its movement is stillness.
