Identity

 If I see a particular thing in isolation then it appears something, if I see as a relationship, it appears something else; if I see as vibrations, I see as cyclic phenomenon; if I become consciousness, and I do not see anything! Whether I see a thing as an object or a relation or as vibration or consciousness - what is the absolute reality?!

All forms and forces are only apparent – they do not have any real identity. Rather the identity or the existence of any form or force depends on our perception. I can perceive something as a phenomenon or purely consciousness. A thing or a situation appears to us in the same way that we wish to perceive it; else there is nothing in it. A form does not exist without perception and vice versa. So these are only degrees of perception – mind and body. At a human level, there are layers of perception because of vibrations, force, mind and body (and past lives). This makes our perception and not the direct thing as I see it “right now”.

This changing perception is to be worked on to finally take us to consciousness. Worrying is not required, control of change is also not the issue, fear is unnecessary, fluctuations are not necessary. Trust is the basis of all things; to know that the source of all things is consciousness; and nothing alters Its presence or beginning or end and It does not move anywhere and is not transformed by anything and does not take any character or form since It does not vibrate.

Identity of motion is an illusion – a wave and apparent and changing. This is not who I wish to be seen or evaluated. This is just motion that we ride with as we consider ourselves different from the rest. What the sun is or the moon or the ant or the grass or the sky or me or you or the sea – is just one and the same seen as “name and form”. Minus all the attributes and what remains or becomes is consciousness. We are not even aware of this potential of subtracting motion. We can practice it and become consciousness.

We are consciousness. Let us realize this experience.

Hari Om.
