Clarity
Speaking in a relative sense, I have known many so-called ‘people’ who are obviously clear about ‘Non Duality’.
Some of these ‘individuals’, at first glance, the mind wants to dismiss them for one ‘reason’ or another.
I could go into particular descriptions but it would not help get across what I am getting at.
I also know many who believe that they are very clear on this Non Duality and it is quite obvious that the mind has merely learned the language. Even so the language can help rid the mind of erroneous beliefs. However, if the ‘me’ fortifies itself with ‘knowledge’ and the heart of it is vanity, the conceitedness leaks out of every ‘joint’.
Now, what I am getting at is this: Clarity is all-pervasive and it does not belong to any pattern, person or object.
Everything is clearly what it is, without thought translations. Clarity is what allows all things to be known, even a dream is known via clarity. A fog is known via clarity. Confusion in the mind is known via clarity.
The believed in ‘me’ is known via clarity.
The basic equation is this: Belief in NEVER the actual.
When belief is removed by clear insight, knowing can no longer flow into any belief and make it seem real.
There are no individuals that have acquired clarity. All the seekers, all the gurus and every ordinary being are an appearance in THAT which is Clarity Itself.
You can spend a small fortune attending the latest retreat with some teacher but it will do no good whatsoever. That particular teacher will not discourage you because it is his ‘living’. Secretly he smiles to himself at how foolish the seekers are. He tells stories about how someone at the last retreat ‘got it’, implying that you may be the lucky one at the next retreat. Sucked in.
There is no real-estate to this. No one HAS IT and no one can give it to you.
The mind must be understood. That is all. (This is totally FREE information)
Watch the mind as it makes its claims and KNOW that it is all conceptual. A parade of unfolding phenomena, unfolding in emptiness. It is always and ever what it is – this changeless beingness – without form or substance.
Yet it contains all forms and all apparent substance.
The Ancient Alchemist said: “One Substance – One Thing”.
Belief in NEVER the actual. You are the ACTUALITY – REALITY.
What the mind translates THAT as is only ever conceptualization.
The concept is not THAT.
THAT appears as concepts – it is never the other way around.
