Loving Beingness Loves Itself and Opens Minds Naturally.
As ever-present and unchanging, loving beingness rests as itself,
Free of mentally imposed definition, limitation, and belief of any kind, through the mind humbly opening to its own not-knowing,
There is clarity that beingness is recognising itself, and not that a person is recognising beingness.
There is discernment that ever-present, unchanging beingness is different from the experiences of mind and body, which are constantly changing.
There is clarity that any thought arising from the belief that beingness is the mind and therefore personal and limited cannot be known to be true, and such thoughts will no longer create confusion or hold influence.
There is clarity that any feeling arising from the belief that beingness is the body and therefore personal and limited cannot be known to be true, and such feelings will likewise lose their power and cease to confuse.
There is increasingly a ceasing of being mistaking itself for experience, getting lost in experience, and therefore remaining rooted in freedom from experience.
As loving beingness, it is clear that all transient experiences appear from and disappear back to beingness — spontaneously, causelessly, without any person controlling anything — and that this has always been the case, despite what the mind may have believed.
As loving beingness, all experiences can be welcomed as part of the natural flow of being’s loving nature, and not resisted as the mind once did defensively. For as beingness, the mind comes to realise it is always safe, always has been safe, and always will be safe.
The mind naturally becomes re-educated by loving beingness being itself knowingly, accepting that it is not the master of living. Its tense, controlling nature was based on an illusion — the belief that beingness is but a fragment trying to survive. But now, realising this is not so, it can rest and declutter itself of unnecessary neurotic thoughts, like a fearful adolescent being reassured by a loving parent.
The discernment of beingness by itself is always the case in reality. It is never not the case. It was the mind that was hiding this ever-present truth, obscured by the sheer volume of experiences — unable to see the wood for the trees.
Though the mind may think it is clever — that it has discovered some method, practice, or teacher — and imagines that the discernment of beingness arose from circumstance, method, or good fortune, this is a misunderstanding.
Methods and processes are servants to the greater unfolding of loving beingness recognising the light of itself. When such teachings are heard, it is always beingness hearing them — not a person trying to be beingness.
From the perspective of the mind, this may seem like a great leap. But from the perspective of beingness, it is entirely natural and immediate.
These teachings have arisen from beingness to shine light on the mind and declutter it from neuroticism — not for beingness to find itself, for it has never been lost. Only the mind has been mistaken. In essence, these are simply mind-opening tools guiding the mind gently home, like a child returning to the embrace of a loving parent.
As soon as these teachings are heard, the starting point is always the reminder to the mind that its essential nature is already the peace which it seeks. The rest of the methods and processes are follow-ups and supportive reflections on this central pointing to truth — and this is not to diminish their value. For this reason the reminders are often lovingly ceaseless as the child still may forget it is not the parent.
Then, understanding (wisdom) is knowing we are no-thing — pure beingness. Love is knowing that this beingness we are includes all things. Beauty is knowing we are appearing as form within formless beingness.
In the ever-present, never-changing, safe ocean of wisdom, love, and beauty, our children — the mind and body — live their life.
With Love,
