From Claiming to Vanishing

19 posts in this topic

To begin the day with “O Allah, everything and anything belongs to You” brings an unbelievable relaxation. Ownership is the heaviest burden a human can carry. When the first breath of morning is given back to Allah, the whole being rests.

The body relaxes, for it no longer carries the illusion of control.

The mind quiets, for it no longer needs to plan out of fear.

The heart softens, for it trusts fully that nothing is mine, everything flows through Allah.

This is why the relief is so deep, because the “I” that used to claim life is gone. Life belongs to Allah, always has, always will.

And here lies a crucial truth: do not claim to be God.

Why? Because the very act of claiming is ego.

God does not “claim.” God simply is.

The moment the mind says, “I am God,” it creates separation, a subtle ego, a self trying to take ownership of the Absolute.

In truth, what you are is already inseparable from Allah. But this is not a concept to grasp, nor an identity to wear. It is the natural state revealed when surrender is complete.

So the prayer is not to become God, nor to claim divinity. The prayer is to surrender all claims, all ownership, until only Allah remains. Then you realize, without words, without identity that you were never separate.

That is why the most direct path is to hand over everything, each morning, each breath:

“O Allah, everything and anything belongs to You.”

From that moment, the day unfolds in freedom, without burden, without chatter, without ego. Presence deepens, and love becomes inevitable.

With Love,

I literally feel like I’m going to burst wide open into infinite fragments that stretch out to infinity and beyond right now.

 

Be still my 💓 beating heart.

 

I love you.

@James123 How do we stop flip flopping? 
 

Who am I ? Am I God or is God I Am ? 🤔

My brother, You are God, yet as I said before, no one can claim it. Because, God is just Being (not even name of Being). Any thoughts, any experiences, life, universe, infinite etc... Arises and falls within You. "you" can not reach it. Because, it is what You truly are.

İs worshipping or putting all trust to god or being witness is more powerful for you to surrender?

Nothing. These questions arises out of nothing as nothing because there is nothing but deep sleep. There is no you to be anything. Deep sleep knows nothing. All there is is deep sleep. This sense of being a someone that seems to asks Who am I is nothing in the form of a question. You are not God because there simply is no you. 


What you know leaves what you don't know and what you don't know is all there is.

No. You are God, yet there is nothing there.

There is no you, there is no God, there is no there. It's all a construct of nothing/energy being. Even this empty conversation that means nothing.

No. Meaning (negative or positive way) comes expectations of ego.

Takes more than a mere saying to turn the ego off. Maybe one could turn that saying into a mantra and it might be more effective. Beautiful post nevertheless. 
 

I think the hardest ownership is carrying an identity, existing as limited form, maybe because it’s ultimately untrue so it almost never can be fully relaxed and effortless

İt is actually saying from core of the heart. Not just as a belief, but completely putting trust too.

Exactly. Therefore, fully relaxation and effortlessness dissolves the ego.

Most people who think like that probably do in a dualistic way, like religious people

Effortlessness can be paradoxical because I find thinking can be effortless but thinking tends to be tied to ego

This is the mantra.@Sugarcoat


Sometimes it's the journey itself that teaches/ A lot about the destination not aware of/No matter how far/
How you go/How long it may last/Venture life, burn your dread

@James123

There isn't a real burden.

The self attempting to become free from burden, IS THE BURDEN!

It's never satisfied.

There's no formula or awakening........it's just 👀 👀 👀 ing

Integral thinking is very important or necessary when seeking for the entrance to this nondual reality.

Claiming never vanishes. What appears to vanish- never vanished.
