Seeing

Silent Seeing

Silent Seeing is the transparency of Awareness that looks without judgement. It sees the games of the small mind which wants to feel superior through separation.

Silent Seeing is the full Emptiness, sometimes called Buddha Mind or Christ Consciousness. It is before time the timeless one Light of Now in which all names and forms dissolve. 

Welcome Home to the Unknown ~ Mooji

This is perhaps a spontaneous poem by Mooji, set to music by Omkara, followed at the end by a few, powerful words from Mooji. Lyrics below.

Editors note: things I do not know

- this may have been a spontaneous poem by Mooji

"Is the urge there to look?" (Mooji) This video contains, perhaps, the first words I heard Mooji speak on a YouTube video, when I began to see the 'fascinations of this world' as illusory (seemingly designed to put 'me' in another body through attachments) and I turned toward Truth.

 Each time I listen to this video, and other previously posted videos, I hear the invitation and opportunity in the words, and the energy of the words is new, fresh, alive; not 'repeats'. Perhaps this is what is meant by 'living truth'.

Living the Love Affair With Life!

"It wasn't until the doorway was opened and I fell into the abyss of unknowing, met my undoing, faced the root fear of non-being, and slowly emerged from this profound process of awakening, that I recognized what I had sensed and had been expressing in my life all along: We are already That for which we seek....

"There is a portal to remembering Who we really are, and it is always forever available here, now. All we need do is attune our hearing to its subtle voice, and fall into the Love Affair of Life."

-- ronda larue 2001

"People often say to me: 'I have no artistic ability'. To which I always reply: 'Nonsense' (or worse!) 'You are at the very deepest core of your being, first and foremost, an artist. You are the brush and the canvass and the color and the hand - and that which conspires to bring these together into creative relationship and expression!'

We are not who we seem. We are not what we seem. We are the living Creative Moment. We are Creation engaged in the evolving awareness of Being. Or, to put it another way: We are God's realization of Creative Potential -- arising out of nothing, and with-in us finding expression - and thus seeing.

From a conversation with Kit Baker:

We're so used to being identified with our various roles in life, not to mention every thought and feeling that arises, it's hardly surprising that this habit continues with the only aspect of experience we don't have to identify with (because we already are That). So even when we See who we really are, the mind might say "Oh, right -- that's who I am". It's not wrong in a way, it's just good to be alert so as not to be distracted too much by the fascinating stories the mind can then start to spin, based on this nugget of "truth". The stories of identity are not a problem per se as long as there is also Seeing -- ie being aware as well of the Awake Space in which they are arising.

Some teachings give the impression that somehow all the mind's story-telling ceases forever when we see Who we really are. My experience is that the thought/feeling generator has a lot of momentum. Wanting it to stop is just another story but Seeing in Whom the thoughts and feelings are happening is tremendously liberating and transformative, while the Seeing lasts. We're then experiencing it all from a Place where nothing ever happens and nothing needs fixing, identifying or dis-identifying with.

The Experiments of the Headless Way are a perfect compliment to the wonderful words of all the great non-dualist teachers on this site. They provide a marvelous way to encounter the Awake Emptiness often invoked as the basis and source of all true spirituality.

Actually doing the Experiments (at least a couple of them) is crucial though. Just reading or hearing about them and imagining what they'de be like to perform is like going to the beach and reading a book about surfing without waxing up and getting wet. It also risks giving the thinking mind an opportunity to erect subtle barriers to really Seeing. The invitation is to use the Experiments to do a "perceptual end run" around the mind, not to provide it with more food for thought.

This site provides a dazzling array of wise teachers and Seers, but as the Buddha said: "Be a light unto yourself". In other words, become a Seer and verify for yourself what is being pointed to here.

The Experiments of the Headless Way provide a profoundly direct and simple way to do just that: http://www.headless.org/experiments.htm
