Looking Back
It’s fine to look backwards sometimes but who wants to spend their days stewing on what was? The time is now, life is now. All possibilities exist in the great unknown yawning out before us. But looking back I don’t think I was ever a great listener. I was always too occupied by my own… Continue reading

Grace and Practice
Enlightenment is a function of Grace. But then so is practice. Some might say there’s a qualitative difference between the (seemingly) personal activities or practices like ‘letting go’ or ‘noticing and returning’ and the actions of Grace. But these are as much the spontaneous display of consciousness as the final dissolution of the (illusory) egoic… Continue reading

There’s no force… Continue reading

Peace Through Truth: Embracing the Nature of Reality
Is there a way to find peace and freedom from affliction? Does truth have a bearing on this? Let’s see… Phenomena are spontaneously arising and naturally self-liberating. We have no control over said phenomena because we don’t exist as any kind of being that could exercise control. Therefore bringing clarity to the actual state of… Continue reading

Nihil Extra Conscientiam
You can't find anything that exists outside of mind/consciousness. That's a different claim than there *is* nothing outside of mind. But there's zero evidence for anything *extra conscientiam* and the hypothesis there's an *objective* world is unprovable. https://t.co/2b1TbrWjT2 — Martyn… (@martynwebber) March 28, 2024 Continue reading
