The light

10 posts in this topic

When your mind opens, it becomes the eye of reality. The self becomes the self of reality, since the self is only a structure within which observation takes place.

Reality has a self: you.

When the opening of perception is complete, what the self perceives is of total beauty. Reality lives, is life, is sacred, pure, is total. The unfiltered vision of reality overwhelms and fills the heart. It is the sacred source, the eternal Tao; it is brilliant, contains everything, is fullness. It is joy, it is the absolute glory of the totality, it is the light that blinds you. it is you.

You can never defile yourself again; you are no longer an animal seeking gratification, you are a servant seeking sacred duty. There is no reason for this except that it is what you want. 

Moments like this pass and are forgotten, but their effect endures. It doesn't mean you have to become a saint; you can be a ruthless in business, but change your vector . Change the source of your actions. Also changes the need, the lack. The impulse is to give more than take, to expand more than contract. It's subtle at first but the difference is total, it's a change of direction

Just a subjetive experience of course. 

What happens when all the closures your mind and emotional system impose fall away, and perception becomes (subjectively) limitless

Then you don't just see vastness, you see essence. This is like any perception, something subjective, but the feeling of certainty, of seeing your ultimate essence, is absolute. This doesn't prove it; nothing can. But it is what it is, and it causes your psyche to volatilize, to vaporize.

It leaves your emotional system completely aligned, vibrating perfectly and powerfully, and your mind open and clean.

Not for ever of course. things aren't definitive or easy. We are human; our reality is difficult, complex, much more so than it seems.

Any mystical experience is a representation of the mind, but the mind is a representation of reality, or better, it's the reality appearing as a mind.

This doesn't mean that reality is sacred, etc., but rather that if you remove all bias, everything your emotional system seeks, desires, and fears, what remains appears as the pure and radiant origin of reality. It's absolutely clear, more real than any other perception.

But isn't this a thought or a belief?

No, it's an experience. It's not just a subjective experience; there's a sensation of electricity flowing through your brain, and afterward, a strange feeling lingers for hours, both in your body and elsewhere. None of this is interpretive, and it's very difficult to recall even half an hour later.

I wrote it down right after it happened, and now I don't remember it exactly. What happens is that these kinds of experiences make your emotional and mental structure more plastic and open each time, which is the direction I'm aiming for. As I see it's essential due the emotional structure of humans nowadays, it's a trap of self reference that leads to very dark destiny. The only way is openess

Does the experience involve thought or words?

No, the experience is very simple and very brief. Suddenly, your entire conscious field is a brilliant white background, your emotional system is completely open. That's all, nothing more.

But the way you perceive it is as if you've seen the sacred source of reality; tears stream down your face, your hair seems stands on end, and your head feels like it's passing electricity. In that moment everything is absolutely obvious. After a while, it's impossible to remember. You can remember the idea, but not exactly the moment.

The bottom of your visual field begins to float like a curtain and you are dissapearing or are going to fly away. Then you fly away.

It feels beautiful.

You become totally detached from reality.
