The collected works of Blissmusic

[nac]

Subjective or objective, "true" self or fake, the phenomena arising before us are results of cause and effect. Rather than pointing to a default "ultimate source", it's best to look for the true source of each. Just my personal opinion.

[funkytortoise]

tao doesn't identify. it just is. it doesn't focus on form, but forms come out of it automatically.

 

i hope we all lose ego at some point so humanity can come together and end this nonsense. what i'm saying is, we are limiting ourselves by staying selfish. "i" think to move from the idea of "facts" (tangible matter and everyday reality) to the idea of "possibilities" (awareness) definitely has something to do with enlightenment.

"Even behind

your thoughts, emotions,

and physical experience,

there is still a sense of separation.

 

And this sense of separation hurts,

not in a physical sense but energetically.

 

It is uncomfortable.

 

But this sense of separation

is not a thing,

it is an action.

 

It is something you are doing.

 

You are avoiding this moment.

 

You are constantly avoiding

being present in this moment.

 

The irony is,

the moment you fully allow

yourself to rest in the moment,

the discomfort goes

and there is an explosion of energy.

 

You find that this infinite power

that you have been seeking for so long

has been right here the whole time.

 

But at the same time,

the moment you allow

yourself to be fully here,

the ego vanishes.

 

You still exist,

but not as an ego.

 

And so through all of your transformation,

you free yourself from emotions,

you free yourself from the mind,

 

and then you reach this core

experience of avoidance,

and you want to run the other direction.

 

For some reason,

it is too much

to surrender.

 

By instinct,

the ego wants to survive.

You do not want

to give up control.

 

So you seek more problems,

more solutions,

more teachings and knowledge.

 

Anything but surrendering

to this intensity

of this moment.

 

Just by being aware

of this constant urge

to avoid this moment,

half the battle is won.

 

Because once you see

that you are doing it,

you can stop doing it.

 

And the ultimate experience

is unconditional peace.

 

It is what you have been

looking for the whole time.

 

Blessings,

Hi Kip,

 

Thanks for sharing that.

 

Many concepts in that short piece of work!

 

Peace & Love!

[z00se]

Yeah thats great. Precisely. When you find an easy answer let me know

[z00se]

You cannot realize the Self

through the senses.

 

You cannot taste it, see it,

hear it, smell it

and you cannot touch it.

 

You have your eyes open.

You see and then label what you see.

'This is my body.'

'This is my computer.'

'I am using my hands

to type on the computer.'

 

But close your eyes and be still.

From this point of stillness

tell me about your hands.

 

If you can't see them,

then where and what are they?

 

You can say that you feel them

resting on your mouse or keyboard.

 

But what is that feeling?

What is the sensation

that you are calling your hands?

 

Forget the defining

that they are your hands

and actually experience

what is here beyond the words.

 

With your eyes closed

forget the defining of your body

and experience what you refer to

as your body.

 

Not a part of it

but the whole thing.

 

There is the sensation

that you are here,

but instead of defining it

as a body, as a name,

simply feel it.

 

Feel the sensation

of what is here.

 

Feeling without touching.

Feeling without using words.

 

Here you experience something

that you cannot define,

you cannot accurately describe.

 

Because what is here

does not have boundaries,

cannot be described by the senses.

 

But there is an experience of existing.

There is the awareness of existing.

 

Here, existing and awareness

are one and the same.

 

This is not something

that you can learn or understand.

 

You have to close your eyes,

let go of thinking

and experience it.

 

You will see

it is not a state

that comes and goes.

 

It is what is always here

whether you give it attention or not.

 

Blessings,

Kip"

I think your senses can describe it but words can't. A picture may be 1000 words, but an experience is undescribeable. I believe senses aren't to be put aside, they're to be embraced to the most possible. This is the perfect balance point. Living inside your mind is going too far. Thats not living, thats only being.

[宁]

i would say that the above is a good description of the basic practice... not something final, just the begining... you start there.

[Blissmusic]

"I have nothing against

self improvement.

 

But meditation

is not about self improvement.

 

Self improvement means

there is something here

that needs to be changed.

 

Something about yourself

that is wrong but can be fixed.

 

And if you work hard enough

if you try hard enough,

one day that wrong part of you

will be gone.

 

And then you will be happy.

 

But with meditation,

with awareness,

you accept yourself as you are immediately.

 

You accept everything as it is

in this moment.

Because if you do this,

you see you did not make yourself

to be how you are.

 

You simply are.

 

That you are scared of spiders

or you are forgetful,

or that you feel insecure around others

is not your choice.

 

You did not choose

to be these things in this moment.

 

They are simply here,

existing on their own,

a part of your experience

that you are aware of.

 

And because you are aware of it,

because you accept it fully,

it is perfect.

 

It is divine.

 

You can spend your whole life

telling me how you improved.

How you used to give

someone the finger

when they cut you off on the highway

and now you only think

about giving them the finger.

 

As though a day will come

when someone cuts you off

and you will have no interest

in giving them the finger

and only then you will be

worthy enough to experience divinity.

 

But you see,

the moment you want

to give them the finger

and you are aware of this experience,

then that experience is divinity.

 

I am not advising you

to give people the finger.

 

I am advising you to be aware

of how you are in this moment

without trying to change it.

 

You need not act it out.

Just inwardly experience what is there.

 

It is the path of surrender.

You are surrendering to what is.

 

And through surrender,

there is awareness

and through awareness

there is unconditional peace.

 

Not in the sense of saying

"I am perfectly fine

that guy cut me off on the highway."

 

But by being aware you feel angry about it,

accepting that there is anger there,

and experiencing the sensation

that you call anger.

 

If you do this

you will come to the experience

that everything is just energy.

 

Energy moving through energy.

 

This is bliss.

This is freedom.

This is divinity.

 

Blessings,

 

 

Kip"

I like this. One question: you say that it is good to allow myself to experience the anger I felt with the driver. How do I go from experiencing the anger to learning to give a more cordial response than the finger? Where does the motivation to improve myself come from if how I am right now is divine?

[jaclynrose]

i completely understand what you are saying but personally i cannot feel that same connection with a computer or a man-made object. When I go outside and close my eyes and embrace a tree, as silly as it may sound the connection feels so much greater and intense I would recommend hugging a at least one tree a day haha

[Blissmusic]

"Close your eyes

and notice your experience

of what is here beyond thought.

 

You are not to define it,

describe it

or use thoughts at all.

 

Simply feel what is here.

Experience the sensation

of what is here.

 

The sensation

of existing in this moment.

 

Don't think about it, just try it.

Close your eyes and do this now.

 

If you did this very simple exercise,

then you just experienced yourself

beyond the mind and body.

 

You experienced yourself as energy,

conscious energy,

the pure state of peace and freedom

completely transcendent

of who you think you are.

 

And if you experienced this,

then you no longer can play the victim.

 

You can no longer pretend

that you are this person,

stuck in situations

that cause you suffering.

 

You can no longer pretend

you are a prisoner

of a mind and body.

 

Because you just proved

that you can exist

completely free from the mind

and all of it's sufferings.

 

You can and do exist

in a state of formless

conscious peace.

 

Whether you choose to live

in the mind is a different story.

That is a choice you can make,

and if you are conscious

you made that choice,

then that is also blissful.

 

But to keep pretending

that you are a victim

of suffering is pointless.

 

You can be free of it in any moment.

It is your choice.

 

Blessings,

 

 

Kip"

You are not to define it,

describe it

or use thoughts at all.

 

 

 

I agree... no definition can set you free... When all is left undefined, without exeption, we can still find our self habitualy defining things at some uncounsious level. This is a prosess of letting go of our defining habit, or atatchment habit. including the definition of mind... or the defintion of thoughts...

 

Entering, that no relation ever had a begining...

 

There is still a story that makes me function in day to day life... But the story is not a source of definition or truth. More a source of amusment and practical.. Leting go of all knowlage I hold dear... Enter the mystery of here... No explenation will ever sufice, in this state of wonderus atention...

 

 

Simply enjoying the deepening without a floor... learning to simply be, ever more...

This is bliss.

This is freedom.

This is divinity.

"No matter which

spiritual techniques

you practice,

it all really comes down

to attention.

 

Whether you are

watching your breath

or repeating the name

of a Guru or God,

or are asking "who am I"

or witnessing

or surrendering,

 

they all require

your complete attention.

 

And it is through

the practice of attention

that you grow in awareness.

 

Understanding intellectually

only gets you on to the path.

 

Through practice

you experience

what the words point to.

 

And through experience,

that which you are seeking

becomes your reality.

 

But if you buy into the idea

that you do not need to practice,

then the mind remains in power.

 

You remain a slave

to all of the thoughts and emotions.

 

You remain at the mercy

of chasing one desire after another,

one worry after another

until so much time has passed

that you wonder where your life went.

 

Attention at first

does require discipline.

 

But the moment

you give your complete attention

to what is happening here,

rather then allowing the thinking

to control you,

there is extraordinary peace.

 

And you will fall in love with the peace,

you will fall in love with the practice.

 

In the same way

when you fall in love with someone

you want to spend

all of your time with them,

 

when you fall in love with attention

you will want to immerse yourself

in attention.

 

You will cherish it more than anything.

 

And because of that love for attention

you become attention itself.

 

Fall in love with bliss

and you become bliss.

 

You don't leave it

in the corner of a room,

 

you give it

your complete focus.

 

 

Blessings,

 

 

Kip"

"The delight in eating chocolate

is when you are so totally immersed

in the taste of the chocolate

that there is only that taste.

 

The delight in playing tennis

is when you are so immersed

in the action of playing tennis

there is only the action

of playing tennis.

 

This is meditation.

 

Meditation is when

you are so totally immersed

in this moment

that there is only this moment.

 

There is no you meditating.

There is only meditation.

 

As long as you are trying

to get something out of it,

or figure it out or do it right,

you will miss it.

 

You have to lose yourself in it.

 

It does not matter

what technique you use.

 

When you practice

with such totality

that only the practice remains,

then that is bliss.

 

When you lose yourself

in this moment

you are free.

 

Blessings,

"Make no mistake about it.

Everything affects you.

 

From the music you listen to,

to the person sitting next to you,

the words you read,

the food you eat,

the sounds you hear.

 

Everything

is affecting your experience.

 

So you listen to music

of some famous musician

who eventually committed suicide

and suddenly you feel depressed

and you don't know why.

 

At one level of consciousness

you become aware of the energetic

of everything around you

and begin to choose an environment

that supports peace, bliss and love.

 

At another level of consciousness

you welcome everything.

 

You allow everything

to move through you,

because there are no longer

boundaries between you

and everything else.

 

It is all one.

 

You experience everything

as the same energy,

the same consciousness

and the very nature of that energy

is ecstasy.

 

That's the state

where you are just as happy

to live your life

next to an overflowing trash can

as you would be by a beautiful ocean.

 

You experience

the ecstasy of garbage.

 

You don't just accept the garbage,

you are madly in love with garbage.

You experience garbage as bliss.

 

No fooling!

 

But that is a very high state

and most who experience it

have to come down from it

and eventually you move away

from the garbage.

 

Maybe you do

maybe you don't.

 

Who knows.

 

All possibilities

are delightful.

 

Blessings,

 

 

Kip"

"The very essence of thought

is no-thought.

 

The very essence of mind

is no-mind.

 

If you try and get rid of thought,

then you make thoughts stronger.

 

If you identify with thought,

then you make thoughts stronger

.

So the way to samadhi

is through thought itself.

 

By allowing a thought

to be completely as it is

and being fully aware of it

you come to the essence of thought.

 

You experience

the very nature of thought

which is silence itself.

 

If you separate the two.

 

If you make thought

something separate from silence,

then you will end up

in a never ending struggle

to get one over the other.

 

But if you fully allow a thought

to be as it is,

then you reach the essence.

 

You realize

the formless in form.

 

Samadhi is not actually

the absence of thought.

 

It is transcendent

of both thought

and the absence of thought.

 

It is a state of silence

that has no opposite.

 

It is unconditional bliss.

 

Blessings,

 

 

Kip"

The difference is like trying to sit in the middle of a highway as opposed to the chair on the side of the highway allowing you to just sit and watch the traffic go by.

[Blissmusic]

"It is often said

that if you are present

then you are blissful.

 

But that is not the full truth.

 

If you are present

yes, most likely at first

there will be bliss,

there will be peace.

 

But if you remain present,

if you remain surrendered to

this moment and aware,

then awareness expands,

the Shakti expands.

It starts to push out

everything that is incongruent

with bliss.

 

It widens your energy channels

so that even more energy

can move through.

 

And the experience

cannot really be called bliss.

 

It is excruciating.

 

Not in a sense of pain

but intensity.

 

The ego wants it to stop

because it is pushing your awareness

beyond the boundaries of ego,

beyond what is comfortable.

And so the conflict between the ego

and the shakti creates intensity.

 

Like trying to stick your head

out of the window of a jet

going the speed of sound.

 

Many people learn

that if they surrender a little,

then they get blissful

and then they can contract back into ego.

 

A little expansion

a little contraction.

 

Nothing wrong with this.

 

But the longer you can

remain in the expansion,

the more expansion increases.

 

And this expansion

burns away the separateness.

 

Burns away

that which separates you

from unconditional peace and bliss.

 

The action of identification,

the core stress of

'me' and 'mine'

that separates you from life

gets burned away in this shakti

until you realize

that this fiery consciousness

is what you are.

 

And that is freedom.

 

I say this because many people

reach a certain intensity of awareness

and then back off.

 

Because they heard a teacher

say that if they are present

they will be blissful.

 

And so they were present

but instead of bliss

there was this intensity

so they think something must be wrong.

 

But there is nothing wrong.

That is the process.

 

What is happening

here and now

is exactly as it is supposed to be.

Being present

does not guarantee

a certain experience.

 

But it is the doorway

to unconditional peace and bliss.

And you feel that opening immediately.

 

 

Blessings,

 

 

Kip"

"Try this meditation technique:

Keep your attention fixed

on that which precedes thinking.

 

Normally,

your attention

is lost in thinking

and ignoring what is here

behind the thinking.

 

So try the opposite.

 

Ignore the thinking

and keep your attention

fixed on that which

is behind thought.

 

If you give this technique

your complete focus,

you can very quickly

enter into a whole new

level of awareness.
