To undertake this inquiry, as we’ve already noted, is to go nowhere. There isn’t a thing to learn, a truth to uncover, a secret to unearth. It doesn’t work like that, not at all. This inquiry works on an entirely different axis. It is more akin to dismantling or unlearning… no I’m not going to use that word, forget unlearning. It’s more like a demolition of the foundations on which the world, your world and it’s most important inhabitant, you, rests. The subsequent collapse is all down to nature, as life works it’s magic and pulls your world apart.
Andrew WhiteIn saying YES to the maximum of your capacity in any moment, what unfolds before you offers the potential for deep intimacy. The courage to get right up close to what is, turns you inside out so you become a naked lover of life.
Amoda Maa Awareness is that which is reading these words right now, whatever “that” is. You know without a doubt that there is something reading these words right now, and awareness is precisely what that is. This has to be your true self. You are this awake intelligence that is aware of every idea, every emotion, and every event.
Enza VitaThe invitation here in Satya Satsang is: Recognise first your True Nature. This recognition is always Immediate, never mediated. Realisation never occurs via 'means' , knows no 'becoming' , 'expansion' , 'growth' or 'transforming'. Allow your attention, then, to be determined by what you've recognized.
Randolph. Awareness is something that is absolute, without degrees. It is not a relative concept.
My experience is that sometimes it seems as if I am in a deeper state of awareness at one time or another, for example when I am by myself, and there is just this absolute vastness, absolutely no separation, because I don’t have to exteriorize myself in order to relate to another. But this is only from the relative viewpoint of the body-mind.
Enza VitaThe practice of presence is an opening, a relaxing of your focus (while maintaining alertness) and letting everything come to you, instead of you chasing after something (even though the reality is that awareness doesn’t “come” to us because we already are that). The words “relaxing into it while maintaining alertness” seem to point to a mind-made effort, but what I’m talking about is to leave the mind as it is, without giving it anything to do.

never comes into being.”

RichiBeing Awareness be interested in Awareness alone and nothing else. Than you remain Aware as Awareness itself
