FOR MANY YEARS ONE MAN THOUGHT OF HIS AIM IN ALL OF THIS AS BEING TO BRING HIS NORMALLY, OUT-OF-CONTROL THOUGHTS — UNDER CONTROL;
AND THEN ONE DAY IT SUDDENLY HIT HIM THAT HIS THOUGHTS ARE NOT OUT-OF-CONTROL, BUT ARE CLEARLY UNDER CONTROL — UNDER THEIR OWN CONTROL.
HE THEN WONDERED HOW HE CAME TO EVER THINK OF HIS THOUGHTS AS BEING”HIS” WHEN THEY ARE. OBVIOUSLY A SELF-SUPERVISED ACTIVITY.
ON THE PATH BETWEEN “HERE-&-THERE”
A MAN MUST EVENTUALLY REALIZE 1 THAT THE “PATH” CONSISTS PRIMARILY OF A WILD DOG YAPPING ON ABOUT HOW THAT WILD DOG MUST BE BROUGHT UNDER CONTROL.

THERE IS NO “CONSCIOUSNESS” — THERE IS JUST THOUGHTS: THERE IS NO!’ “BEING ASLEEP” — THERE IS JUST THOUGHTS: THERE IS NO “BEING AWAKE” — THERE IS JUST THOUGHTS:
THERE IS NO “SECRET” — THERE IS JUST THOUGHTS;
NO MATTER WHAT DREAMS, OPINIONS, THEORIES, CONVICTIONS, KNOWLEDGE AND CERTAINTY YOU HAVE — THEY’RE ALL JUST — THOUGHTS.
YOU HAVE YOUR STOMACH, AND IT IS OF AWAKENED, “STOMACH-MIND”;
YOU HAVE YOUR LUNGS AND THEY ARE OF ENLIGHTENED, “LUNG-MIND”!
YOUR BRAIN IN GENERAL IS OF LIBERATED, “BRAIN-MIND”
ONLY THE THOUGHT AREA OF THE BRAIN IS NOT NATURALLY AWAKE & ENLIGHTENED,
AND IT IS ONLY NOT SO BY VIRTUE OF IT BEING ABLE TO THINK ABOUT WHETHER:I-1*AS —
COMBINED WITH A LACK OF.NATURAL INCLINATION TO REALIZE THIS.SIMPLE FACT.
YOU CAN’T SEE YOUR FEET WHILE STANDING ON THEM — (EVERYONE KNOWS THIS)
AND YOUR EYEBALL CAN’T TURN AROUND AND LOOK AT ITSELF, (EVERYONE KNOWS THIS ALSO) BUT WHAT ONLY A FEW EVER REALIZE IS THAT THOUGHTS CAN’T THINK ABOUT THEMSELF IN ANY WAY — FROM ANY ANGLE — WITHOUT WHAT THEY DO STILL BEING
NOTHING BUT THOUGHTS NOTHING BUT THEMSELF;
WHEN THOUGHTS THINK ABOUT BEING “ENLIGHTENED” RATHER THAN BEING “ASLEEP” THEY HAVE MERELY REPLACED ONE THOUGHT WITH ANOTHER THOUGHT OF THE SAME VALUE AND SIGNIFICANCE.
JUMP OUT OF A PLANE OVER THE MIDDLE OF AN OCEAN AND YOU’LL”WAKE UP”–(THAT IS): YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT BEING AWAKE OR ASLEEP WILL CEASE TO TROUBLE YOU.
CLEARLY SUCH A TACK SEEMS TOO SEVERE, SO HERE IS ANOTHER APPROACH:
You CATCH YOUR DOG RUNNING WILD AGAIN — HOLLER OUT ENCOURAGEMENT FOR HIM TO DO SO,
DO NOT CONCERN YOURSELF AT ALL WITH TRYING TO RESTRAIN HIM, FORGET EVEN THAT YOU EVER TRIED. THEN WHEN YOU’VE BECOME SOMEWHAT EXPERIENCED IN THIS, CULTIVATE AN ATTITUDE OF TOTAL, (AND MAY I SAY, “GOOD NATURED”) INDIFFERENCE TOWARD WHATEVER
HE DOES AS PER HIS OWN NATURE.

No MATTER HOW SINCERE OR INTELLIGENT:
A MAN TRYING TO “WAKE UP” IS A VOICE CALLING OUT TO A DESIRED PARTY NOT REALIZING THAT IT IS THE PARTY DESIRED.
….(THIS IN PART IS WHAT DRIVES MEN TO SEEK-OUT AND LISTEN-TO THE VOICES OF OTHER MEN REGARDING THE SUBJECT OF “AWAKENING”:
As LONG AS YOU DON’T REALIZE THAT YOUR VOICE IS IN SEARCH OF ITSELF
YOU WILL CONTINUE TO BELIEVE THAT THE VOICE YOU DESIRE IS SOMEWHERE OUTSIDE OF YOU
THE THOUGHTS OF THE BRAIN CAN LOOK AT OTHER ACTIVITIES OF THE BODY
ALMOST AS THOUGH AN OUTSIDE OBSERVER, (WHICH IS DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR
MAN’S INCREASING GOOD HEALTH AND LONGEVITY),
BUT WHEN THOUGHTS TRY TO TURN THEIR. ATTENTION TO THEMSELF THEY INSTANTLY,
AND UNWITTINGLY FALL INTO A DELUSION —
— IN WHICH THEY DO- SEEM TO BE LOOKING AT THEMSELF)
) THE DELUSION CONSISTS IN THOUGHTS NOW CREATING AND ACCEPTING THE IMPRESSION
THAT THERE IS “SOME ONE” OR SOME THING OTHER THAN THEMSELF IN THE HEAD
DOING THE OBSERVING OF THEM.
WHEN YOU FIRST SEE THIS YOU’RE TEMPTED TO SAY TO YOURSELF: “You CAN’T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS!”,
EXCEPT WHEN YOU SAY THAT YOU ARE RIGHT THEN HAVING IT BOTH WAYS.

QUESTION: WHAT IS IT THAT ALL MEN LIVE BY YET THEY DON’T KNOW WHAT IT IS? — THEIR “SELF”,
EVERYONE LIVES AS DIRECTED BY THEIR SELF, BUT WHEN ASKED WHAT IT IS, NO ONE CAN SAY.
IT IS THROUGH THE MEDIUM OF THE SELF THAT EACH PERSON’S ACTIONS, REACTIONS, THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS ARE DETERMINED, BUT IF YOU UNDERTAKE TO FIND AND IDENTIFY IT
YOU COME.UP WITH A HANDFUL OF SMOKE &REFLECTIONS.
EVEN AN ENLIGHTENED MAN CANNOT LOCATE HIS “SELF”;
ISN’T THIS SUGGESTIVE OF SOMETHING NORMALLY NEVER CONSIDERED?
DON’T SEND CINDERELLA IN SEARCH OF SANTA CLAUS

EVERYONE KNOWS THE TRUTH ABOUT LIFE —
THE ONLY TIME THEY MOMENTARILY DON’T IS WHENEVER THEY’RE THINKING OR TALKING ABOUT IT.
2034-.8
HERE IS THE “MYSTIC’S MIGRAINE”:
ONCE YOU REALIZE WHATI”BEING AWAKE AND BEING ASLEEP” IS
THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN TOLERATE NOT BEING AWAKE IS TO BE DEEP ASLEEP,
TRY A QUICK, UNEXPECTED PEEK AT IT:
WHAT IS “BEING ASLEEP” OTHER THAN YOUR THOUGHTS BEING SO TOTALLY IMMERSED IN THEMSELF THAT THERE IS NOT EVEN THE MOMENTARILY IMPRESSION OF A “YOU” THAT IS HAVING THEM,
THEY ARE CLEARLY — “HAVING THEMSELF” SAME AS THEY ALWAYS DO,
IT’S ONLY WHEN YOU SUDDENLY THINK ABOUT “BEING AWAKE OR ASLEEP”
THAT THERE IS SUDDENLY A SENSATION LN YOUR THOUGHTS OF THERE BEING A “YOU” SEPARATE FROM THE THOUGHTS THAT IS EITHER HAVING THEM, OR AT LEAST OBSERVING THEN
WHAT CAN POSSIBLY BE ENLIGHTENMENT” OTHER THAN YOUR PERMANENT RECOGNITION OF THE SIMPLE, OBVIOUS FACT THAT THOUGHTS ARE NOTHING BUT THOUGHTS NO MATTER WHAT THEY MAY THINK ABOUT, (SUCH AS, “BEING ENLIGHTENED”,)
2034-9
A STOMACH IS — “RIGHT NOW”,
LUNGS ARE — “THIS VERY ‘INSTANT”, 1)
AND NEURONS ARE — “THIS EXACT MOMENT”, THAT IS,
EXCEPT FOR THOSE INVOLVED. IN THE PRODUCTION OF THOUGHTS,
…(AT LEAST THAT’S WHAT THE NATURE OF THEIR PRODUCT WOULD INDICATE))
AN EYEBALL THAT CAN LOOK AT ITSELF IS ENLIGHTENED,
AND A FOOT THAT CAN.JUMP HIGHER THAN ITSELF IS AWAKE
AND THOUGHTS ARE LIBERATED WHEN THEY REALIZE THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN
THINK ABOUT THEMSELF WITHOUT INSTANTLY TURNING INTO THE THOUGHTS,.
AND JUST AS INSTANTLY, FORGETTING THAT THEY HAVE JUST DONE SO.
THOUGHTS ARE THE ONLY THING THAT CAN’T LOOK AT THEMSELF WITHOUT TURNING INTO WHAT THEY’RE LOOKING AT WHILE TOTALLY UNAWARE OF WHAT JUST HAPPENED.
REALIZING FOR YOURSELF,.ON ANYTHING EVEN APPROACHING A STEADFAST BASIS,
WHAT “BEING AWAKE 8.ASLEEP” IS ACTUALLY ALL ABOUT
IS BOTH THE MOST COMPLEX THING A HUMAN MIND CAN EVER ACCOMPLISH — AND ALSO THE HEIGHT OF ABSURD SIMPLICITY, (ONCE YOU HAVE ACCOMPLISHED IT, OF COURSE.)

IT’S ALL RIGHT TO THINK:
“I DON’T LIKE THE VIEW FROM HERE.”)
AS LONG AS YOU EVENTUALLY REALIZE THAT:
HERE IS YOU AND THE VIEW IS YOUR I.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN. A REGULAR MYSTIC AND A “REAL MYSTIC”
IS THAT A REGULAR MYSTIC IS SATISFIED EXPERIENCING AWAKENING WHILE A REAL MYSTIC IS NEVER COMPLETELY SATISFIED.
2034–12
THERE IS ONLY ONE PROFITABLE WAY TO THINK ABOUT THIS ACTIVITY THAT IS
NOT METAPHORICAL,
AND STICKING TO ONLY THAT ONE WILL MOST DEFINITELY —
— CLEAR YOUR HEAD — CALM THE VOICE, AND
REVEAL THE SECRET

-ONLY HE TELLS THE TRUTH ABOUT LIFE
:2 WHO NEVER SPEAKS ABOUT LIFE.
2034-15
IN THE BEGINNING IT IS ONLY PROPER THAT YOU THINK, THINK, THINK ABOUT
THE MATTER OF “BEING ASLEEP AND WAKING UP”,
BUT THE TIME COMES WHEN YOU SHOULD THINK ONLY ON THE MATTER OF YOUR THINKING ABOUT THE MATTER OF BEING ASLEEP OR AWAKE,
IT IS ALL JUST A TRICK TO GET THOUGHTS TO REALIZE WHAT THEY’RE INVOLVED IN WHEN THEY GET INVOLVED IN
TRYING TO REALIZE WHAT THEY’RE INVOLVED IN,
2034-14
FOR THE FEW, INDEED: KNOWING THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE,
BUT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT BEING FREE EQUALS BEING SATISFIED,
WHEN ORDINARY PEOPLE ARE DISSATISFIED THEY FEEL IT IS BECAUSE THEIR
LIFE IS OUT OF THEIR CONTROL;
WHEN THOSE SEEKING THE TRUTH ARE DISSATISFIED THEY BELIEVE IT IS BECAUSE THEIR
MIND IS OUT OF THEIR CONTROL,
BUT AS A SEEKER APPROACHES THE SECRET HE BEGINS TO REALIZE THAT HIS MIND IS
NOT OF OF CONTROL, THE FACT IS THAT HIS MIND SAYS THAT IT IS NOT UNDER
HIS CONTROL, HAVING VERBALLY CHANGED ITSELF FROM ITSELF
INTO A SENSATION OF HIS SELF,
A MAN’S THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS ARE ALWAYS UNDER CONTROL — UNDER THEIR OWN CONTROl …UNDER LIFE’S CONTROL, AND IF YOU DON’T CARE FOR EITHER OF THOSE, THEN -UNDER SOMETHING’S CONTROL,
A MAN WHO EXPERIENCES THE REALITY OF THIS DISCOVERS FOR HIMSELF THAT
EVEN THOUGH.”KNOWING THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE”, IT STILL DOES NOT
GUARANTEE A STATE OF PERMANENT.SATISFACTION —
BUT IT DOES GIVE HIM A PERMANENT AND SECRET UNDERSTANDING AS TO THE NATURE OF
‘SATISFACTION”
TO A MAN ARMED WITH SUCH UNDERSTANDING THERE IS A DISTINCTION BETWEEN –
BEING “SATISFIED” AND BEING “CONTENT”, (A FORM OF “-ENLIGHTENED INDIFFERENCE”): HIS PRIVATE UNDERSTANDING OF LIFE-IS NOW SUCH THAT
HE IS-CONTENT EVEN WITH BEING DISSATISFIED,
THE NATURE OF THE MIND IS NOT THE NATURE OF THE STOMACH,
AND THAT REALIZATION ALONE WILL RESULT IN AN ASTOUNDING UNSHAKLING OF YOUR MIND.
