-Beyond Beliefs-
Sahaja yoga is just bliss
The inner joy,the one you miss
Sahaja yoga is above
The petty struggles..it's just love
It doesn't make you drink more beer
Your mind becomes so crispy clear
It is above the confrontation
It is about emancipation
It is your spirit shining though
Your heart,your eyes..your fingers too
It is with self a love affair
You breathe the joy ,not only air
You are a rainbow butterfly
You raise your wings..and go high..high..
You are alone and yet collective
Whatever you do..you're protected
You are reminded who you are
The God Almighty's sparkling star
My dear friend,the life is short
Don't let your soul become too old
Just feel the sunshine..it's not cold!!
Beyond beliefs..open your eyes
To inner kingdom's paradise!!!.(-added by danny-)
*note* I wrote a poem for all the swamis in the world..
.............
-The mind-forms-
Well the Swami he runs a mind-form
He runs it in his illusion realms
He makes a few of his people happy, oh
He don't care about the rest at all
But maybe kripto pressure can make the Swami see
How everybody could live as one
When he enjoys and just has fun
Swami's projections..when they're done
His kripto shines again like sun
He is inside,and yet apart
His wisdom muscle's getting smart
One thing,yet many is the point
The universe's amazing bliss
You're not aware what you miss
When this and that..and all are joined
So.. Swami!!. listen without clothes
To kripto's most amazing words
As long you keep the mind-forms fire
You'll never know what might transpire
Inside of you there is a kripto
It is all love ,and sweet demise
Let's die..my Swami..and shall rise
In kripto's beauty paradise!!!
Never believe this is the end..
And happy birthday,my good friend!
Do not confuse manifestation
With the true one..that's illusion
Do not confuse my true desire
Not separated..but a fusion
My wisdom muscle in on fire
Can't you find your true desire?
For the mind-forms are just cluster..
So I wish..live long and prosper!!

To nourish the vital energy, keep watch in silence;
In order to subdue the mind, act with non-action.
Of movement and stillness, be aware of their origin;
There is no work to do, much less someone to seek.
The true and constant must respond to phenomena;
Responding to phenomena, you must be unconfused.
When unconfused, the nature will stabilize by itself;
When the nature stabilizes, energy returns by itself.
When energy returns, the elixir crystallizes by itself;
Within the pot, the trigrams of kǎn and lí are joined.
Yīn and yáng arise, alternating over and over again;
Every transformation comes like a clap of thunder.
White clouds form and come to assemble at the peak;
The sweet nectar sprinkles down Mount Sumeru.
Swallow for yourself this wine of immortality;
You wander so freely—who is able to know you?
Sit and listen to the tune played without strings;
Clearly understand the mechanism of creation.

For your pains
But you are him
And everything you hate outside
You hate inside(but you don't know it)

Kissing you on the forehead

large archive of various texts,mostly from Theosophy..that's why they say THEOSOPHY Library(quote"Theosophy is a doctrine of religious philosophy and mysticism. Theosophy holds that all religions are attempts by the "Spiritual Hierarchy" to help humanity in evolving to greater perfection, and that each religion therefore has a portion of the truth. The founding members, Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831–1891), Henry Steel Olcott (1832–1907), and William Quan Judge (1851–1896), established the Theosophical Society in New York City in 1875."
MEMORIAL LIBRARY .. is a library of texts..that's all...worthy of reading,if you have time.I don't have much love for any Theosophist,really..I don't consider any one of them realized..however,I do consider some of what they speak of as true,since this is an interdependent universe...this means you are a resonant matrix of the whole...nothing is apart of you,see?..grasshoppers?
THE UNIVERSE redefines itself in a self-conscious mood continuously ...end of seeking?..TALK TO GOD ABOUT THAT,and ASK HIM why he created this pattern...and IF YOU TELL me you know it all ,or YOU are god...and at the ,,end of seeking,,..I say take an aspirin ...the whole purpose is to NOT know..otherwise,there'd be no advances in consciousness,no knowing,no mystery and no universe itself..really..no individuality ,no galaxies,no flowers and no butterflies..and no kriptos like me,indeed...and let those whom have ears hear my wisdom..and let those whom think they KNOW God do whatever they want...the cemeteries are full of men and women like them...because you are god,but you don't know it,or refuse to accept it...even though everything is GOD,yet you refuse to accept that you could be god also...it's too much pain to accept that all those pains you've suffered came from yourself,isn't it?..better to blame others...(including gods..none are spared of blaming,humans or gods..insanity indeed)
The Universe is worked and guided from within outwards. As above so it is below, as in heaven so on earth; and man – the microcosm and miniature copy of the macrocosm – is the living witness to this Universal Law and to the mode of its action. We see that every external motion, act, gesture, whether voluntary or mechanical, organic or mental, is produced and preceded by internal feeling or emotion, will or volition, and thought or mind. As no outward motion or change, when normal, in man’s external body can take place unless provoked by an inward impulse, given through one of the three functions named, so with the external or manifested Universe. The whole Kosmos is guided, controlled, and animated by almost endless series of Hierarchies of sentient Beings, each having a mission to perform, and who – whether we give to them one name or another, and call them Dhyan Chohans or Angels – are "messengers" in the sense only that they are the agents of Karmic and Cosmic Laws. They vary infinitely in their respective degrees of consciousness and intelligence; and to call them all pure Spirits without any of the earthly alloy "which time is wont to prey upon" is only to indulge in poetical fancy. For each of these Beings either was, or prepares to become, a man, if not in the present, then in a past or a coming cycle (Manvantara). They are perfected, when not incipient, men.
The human kingdom is but one hierarchy. Humanity on earth is surrounded by minerals, vegetables and animals, and like man himself, these have their respective invisible counterparts; but these form only one part of the vast invisible. There are other constituents. Nature is septenary:
"the spiritual or divine; the psychic or semi-divine the intellectual; the passional; the instinctual, or cognitional; the semi-corporeal and the purely material and physical natures." Just as our own mind is nearer to our own body than is the body of another, so also some of these invisible intelligences are nearer neighbours than our friends living in our street. We have cosmic neighbours, and we owe to these proper recognition and duties, just as we have and should assume civic and national responsibility.
ps..I am was actually trying to post about Tung-Shan (http://theosophytrust.org/tlodocs/articlesTeacher.php?d=Tung-shan.htm&p=134) quote"Liang-chieh of Tung-shan (807–869), often referred to simply as Tung-Shan or Dongshan Liangjie (Ch. 洞山良价), was a Ch'an (Zen) master of 9th century China. Along with his pupil Ts'ao-shan Pen-chi, he is best known for founding the Ts'ao-tung, or later Sōtō, school of Ch'an. However, his contributions also include extensive expansion and analysis of Buddhist doctrine, such as the poetic Verses of the Five Ranks, as well as stimulation of Buddhist popularity during an era of vulnerability for the religion
The Five Ranks, by Chinese Soto (Caodong) master Tung-shan, are fundamental to Sōtō and Rinzai Zen teaching, expressing the fundamental non-dualism of Buddhist teaching, which rejects the duality of dualism and non-dualism. The ranks are based on a translation of five stanzas from a poem attributed to Tung-shan, who may have received it from his master before him:
The Apparent within the Real/The Actual within the Ideal
The Real within the Apparent/The Ideal within the Actual
The Coming from within the Real
The Arrival at Mutual Integration
Unity Attained
end quote" (added by danny)
Because of his conviction that language traps the user more often than it frees him, Tung-shan did not believe that discourses or even philosophical conversation in itself could be very helpful in efforts to draw closer to enlightenment. When the monk who had been asked about his real self raised a question on how one could see one's subjectivity without making it objective, Tung-shan answered, "To talk about it in this way is easy, but to continue our talking makes it impossible to reach the truth." As his enigmatic answers and poetic responses suggest, Tung-shan freely used the language of the Taoist philosophers, often quoting from Chuang-tzu to make a point. He never uttered a plain absurdity, however, nor was he known to have ever used the shout or the stick. He preferred to unsettle and dislodge consciousness from its inertia rather than to shock or shatter it. Because he thought of enlightenment in terms of gradual stages of dawning insight, he was more concerned with what was transmitted from mind to mind than with the totalistic process of transmission itself. If Lin-chi could be thought of as focussing on the instantaneous nature of a complete transmission, Tung-shan carefully considered its content. Like Chuang-tzu, he believed that language is the net whereby one catches the fish, but once caught, the fisherman of meditation has to haul in the catch.
Mind, for Tung-shan, is a unity in itself and in relation to the world. Although it is frequently convenient to speak of states or levels of consciousness, mind is one, and though distinctions between internal and external can be useful, especially for nurturing a sense of moral agency, there is only Mind-Reality. Meditation aims to discover experientially the metaphysical truth that unity and multiplicity themselves are resolved in a coincidentia oppositorum, a transcendental Oneness which can be called Enlightenment or shunyata, the Void. When one thinks, "The sky is blue", one has produced neither an objective description of Nature nor a subjective impression of some psychological state. Rather, it is an instantaneous expression of Reality in the context of multiplicity. As such, "The sky is blue" is not a proposition which means something: it just is itself, not different from Reality, yet not Reality as a whole.
Meditation is not an attempt to escape from one consciousness into another, for consciousness is one. More accurately, it is movement along a continuum from the end which exhibits a high degree of multiplicity towards the end which exhibits greater unity. Soto Zen came to prefer the analogy of the ocean: tempest-tossed on its surface, where wind and temperature produce ceaseless movement and agitation; calmer in its depths, where persistent currents steadily circulate; and still in its deepest parts, where change has no locus. Although meditation is a way the mind can be used all the time, sitting in meditation, zazen, is useful in cultivating the ability to move the focus of consciousness into the depths. When that focalization is deep enough, there is no object of focus, and mind comes to behold itself as it really is, the Unity which is Reality. In spirit, Tung-shan's teachings on meditation are closer to Patanjali's Yoga Sutras than to the melodrama of popular Zen.
Since the Unity manifests in multiplicity, the Absolute appears in the relative, or the Real is one with the phenomenal. Tung-shan grounded his teachings on the doctrine that there are five distinguishable relations between universal and particular, which represent five progressive stages of enlightenment. As outlined by his disciple Ts'ao-shan, Tung-shan called the first state "the universal within the particular", where Unity or the Absolute is obscured by the ignorant preoccupation of human beings with appearances. Yet because the universal is within the particular, it is possible to become aware that the world of appearances has no intrinsic reality as a multiplicity, but is only as real as the senses make it. Discovering this, an individual can pass on to the second stage, called "the particular within the universal". Here the meditator comes to see that objective reality is necessarily perceived through his subjective apparatus, and that the Absolute is approached through the relative, for particulars exemplify the universal. This stage permits the realization – invariably misunderstood at the first stage – that good and evil are part of the same unity. In one sense, this can be called enlightenment.
The third stage is reached when the individual can approach the Absolute through universality, focussing consciousness with out any props at all – neither image nor language nor specific thought. The fourth stage is achieved when one can experience total unity in the experience of particulars, so that any particular reveals the Absolute. In this stage one can meaningfully say, "After Zen, mountains are mountains and rivers are rivers." The fifth stage is the supreme discovery of shunyata, wherein no approach is possible since it is beyond speech and silence. Neither object nor concept is helpful, for the Void contains all concepts and objects whilst transcending them. This stage of "wordless insight" is the experience of consciousness abiding in its own nature as the Mind-Reality. Here, where naught else exists – much less avails – one can say that action and inaction are the same. In his typically enigmatic way, Tung-shan pointed to this supreme Enlightenment in a verse:

*note*Papaji talks about fear..lovely ...quote"Sri H.W.L. Poonja, lovingly referred to as Papaji, was born on October 13, 1910, in a part of the Punjab that is now in Pakistan.He had his first direct experience of the Self at the age of nine.
He met his Master, Sri Ramana Maharshi, in 1944. Shortly afterwords he realized the Self in the presence of his Master. Being a householder, he continued to work and support the many members of his extended family until his retirement in 1966. After extensive travel Papaji settled down in Lucknow, India, where he received visitors from around the world. He left the body on September 6, 1997."
This post is about his wisdom expressed in his talk ,,When fear comes,kiss its face!,..This guy knew the truth,but of course...he could never transmit it....this is the issue here.Due to the resonance factor,a Master can always induce his energy in anybody...but the problem is not that,trust me..the idea is to teach people to find the kripto inside them...see what I mean?..if spirituality would have been so simple,Gods would have made the world perfect long ago...stop looking outside,and look inside,says the mahayogi..the kripto is there..grab it,and never let go of it...use those wisdom muscles,please...because you are the beauty of the creation, and you don't know it.

............ Satsang with Papaji(When Fear Comes, Kiss Its Face!) Om. Let there be Peace and Love Among All Beings of the Universe. Let there be Peace,Let there be Peace, Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti. Namaskar. Q: When I'm quiet - just feeling this love - it is so beautiful. Then this feeling of fear comes; as if the love will go away. I don't want that fear to come. I just want to stay in the beauty of the feeling of love.
I can only suggest to you that when the fear comes that is what is happening, so let it come. Hug this fear, don't reject it. Hug it and kiss it. If fear comes when you are happy it is a past habit that has been showing up, a dormant tendency of the mind. All that is dormant will have to rise up now; otherwise these tendencies would have given you much trouble again and again. You would have had to live out those things which were buried deep in the subconscious mind.
Now because the sense of an individual doer is no longer there these tendencies are no longer rising in the present and you don't need to do anything any more. (ps..be careful that Papaji here talks about those very advanced whom know there is no such thing as individual sense of self...this wisdom doesn't apply to the beginners,or those on the middle levels...and of course even those advanced while they have no illusions about their own true nature,they still have illusions about the world.Because they still react to the outside world,not realizing yet the emptiness and interdependence of the 5 elements outside of them..they realize it only inside...-added by danny-) When the concept of the future is discarded and in the present you have no desire; past tendencies are free to rise up. So don't try to bury them now. Before they could wait for another incarnation if they were not fulfilled now, but now they can no longer wait - this is the time for them to leave. So keep quiet and simply watch. They will not trouble you. Do not stop them. Do not say, "I do not want them." Invite them. Tell them, "Come! Please come now; this is the time." Do not resist any more. Allow whatever may arise to arise on its own. Be prepared. Do not stop them, do not run away, let them arise. Previously you were always busy with day to day desires, with future hopes and expectations. You were so engaged so these dormant tendencies were waiting, saying to themselves, "We will be fulfilled next time." Now the time is here because there is no more expectation, no more hope, no more desire. This is the time for the dormant tendencies buried in the unconscious mind to appear and to leave this place. So do not resist. Let them arise, okay? Good.

Qīng Jìng Jīng) is an important and central text in the Daoist religion. It builds upon the Lǎozǐ and uses the literary style of the Prajñāpāramitā Hṛdaya Sūtra to explain the method of attaining the Dào in systematic, cascading logic with few adornments. The text has been commented upon extensively, is universally praised, and is commonly recited to this day."
-added my danny-
..... The Classic of Purity and Stillness Qīng Jìng Jīng Lord Lao said: The great Dào has no form, yet it gives birth to Heaven and Earth. The great Dào has no desire, yet it moves the sun and moon along their orbits. The great Dào has no name, yet it constantly nurtures the myriad phenomena. I do not know its name, yet I attempt to speak of it as the Dào. The dào of human beings is pure and impure; it has action and it has stillness. Heaven is pure and Earth is impure; Heaven acts and the Earth is still. Masculine is pure and feminine is impure;
masculine acts and the feminine is still. Descending from the origin and flowing to the tips, the myriad phenomena are born. Purity is the source of impurity, and movement is the basis of stillness.
If people can be constantly pure and still, Heaven and Earth will certainly revert to them. The human spirit is fond of purity, but the mind disturbs it; the human mind is fond of stillness, but desires lead it along. If the mind can be constant without desires, then the mind will become still; when the mind has settled, then the spirit will be pure. Naturally the Six Desires will not be born and the Three Poisons will perish. Those who cannot accomplish this have minds not yet settled, and are not yet rid of desires.
For one who has dispatched desires, when he observes his mind, there is no mind. When he observes his outer form, there is no such form. When he observes external phenomena, there are no such things. He realizes that these three are fundamentally empty, and he only sees emptiness. He observes that this emptiness is also empty, yet the emptiness has nothing which is empty.
Since the emptiness is empty, that which is not empty is also empty. Since what is not empty is empty, there is clarity and constant tranquility. Since this tranquility has nothing which is tranquil, what can give birth to desires? Since desires are not born, this is itself true stillness, true constant response to phenomena, true constant attainment and abiding. With constant response and constant stillness, this is indeed constant purity and stillness.
With such purity and stillness, one gradually enters the true Dào. Because one has entered the true Dào, it is deemed “attaining the Dào.” Although it is called “attaining the Dào,” in fact there is nothing acquired. For the purpose of transforming living beings, it is called “attaining the Dào.” Those who can awaken to this can transmit the sagely Dào.
Lord Lao said: High warriors do not fight, while low warriors are fond of fighting. High virtue is no virtue, while low virtue grasps after virtue. Those who grasp at such things do not understand the virtue of the Dào.
Therefore it is impossible for living beings to attain the true Dào with deluded minds. Since they have deluded minds, their spirits are frightened; because their spirits are frightened, they are attached to the myriad phenomena. Because they are attached to the myriad phenomena, they give birth to greedy seeking; due to the birth of this greedy seeking, they they encounter confusion and anger. With these afflictions and delusions, they concern themselves with the pains of the body and mind. Since they easily encounter impurity and disgrace, they wander aimlessly in birth and death, constantly submerged in the sea of suffering, and perpetually missing the true Dào.
If one awakens to the constant true Dào, he will attain it. One who attains and awakens to the Dào has constant purity and stillness indeed.
(but the kripto sage Dao quotes "Lyrics:
It's not her fault that she's so irresistible
But all the damage she's caused isn't fixable
Every twenty seconds you repeat her name
But when it comes to me you don't care
If I'm alive or dead, so
[Chorus:]
Objection
I don't want to be the exception
To get a bit of your attention
I love you for free,
And i'm not your mother
But you don't even bother
Objection
I'm tired of this triangle
Got dizzy dancing tango
I'm falling apart in your hands again
No way
I've got to get away
Next to her cheap silicone I look minimal
That's why in front of your eyes I'm invisible
But you've got to know small things also count
Better put your feet on the ground
And see what it's about, so
[Chorus (with a slight change)]
?- The angles of this triangle ?-
I wish there was a chance for
You and me
I wish you couldn't find a place
to be away from me
This is pathetic
And sardonic
And sadistic
And psychotic
Tango is not for three
Was never meant to be
But you can try it
Rehearse it
Or train like a horse
But don't you count on me
Don't you count on me boy

To nourish the vital energy, keep watch in silence;
In order to subdue the mind, act with non-action.
Of movement and stillness, be aware of their origin;
There is no work to do, much less someone to seek.
The true and constant must respond to phenomena;
Responding to phenomena, you must be unconfused.
When unconfused, the nature will stabilize by itself;
When the nature stabilizes, energy returns by itself.
When energy returns, the elixir crystallizes by itself;
Within the pot, the trigrams of kǎn and lí are joined.
Yīn and yáng arise, alternating over and over again;
Every transformation comes like a clap of thunder.
White clouds form and come to assemble at the peak;
The sweet nectar sprinkles down Mount Sumeru.
Swallow for yourself this wine of immortality;
You wander so freely—who is able to know you?
Sit and listen to the tune played without strings;
Clearly understand the mechanism of creation.
It comes entirely from these twenty lines;
A true ladder going straight to Heaven.-Daoist text -
To us all towns are one, all men our kin. Life's good comes not from others' gift, nor ill. Man's pains and pains' relief are from within. Thus have we seen in visions of the wise !." - Tamil Poem-

Indeed,these are the resonance factors of the TRUE ONE inside you..never confuse this appearance with manifestation of the Witness..All the masters talked about this(including the mighty humble kripto the great) but nobody listens..
They try to find eternity in the manifestation,while not for a second there is any purpose,way,or something you must do other then find your true nature,and understand the beauty of your true being(and feel it) ...and apply it,once you found it.
Experience is FUTILE unless you become the WITNESSING ..THUS SPOKENTH THE MAHAYOGI!!.for the grasshoppers whom have ears ,might hear this marvelous wisdom at midnight,while they try to figure whom they are,and WHY are they here...and how to escape suffering...but first they must know suffering..have you suffered enough,grasshoppers?..or more pain is for breakfast?

UNDERSTANDING THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE(from William Samuel)
TRANSCENDING DUALISM
HUMAN EXPERIENCE IS RETROSPECTIVE CONFIRMATION The human experience is not IT, but is the confirmation of IT. The human experience is the linear unfoldment, running backward in time so to speak, confirming the Real. The world experience is present as CONFIRMATION of Ineffability, searched for, expected, perceived and understood. Not the ship, but the wake of the ship. Or, as so many in history have put it, the tangible experience is the shadow of the real.
That shadow is overspread with many shadows, infinite possibilities happening simultaneously, but each unfolding is forward moving in time. The central figure among the shadows is this one we call ourself, enshrouded in self-centeredness, selfishness and ignorance. Its obligation is to become a passerby and walk gently through the many shades of meaning, discerning the Real Confirmation of Godhead and resting therein, content that Godhead is indeed the All of all. Because Godhead is Already, our physical discernment is actually retrospective and appears sequentially-forward going and progressive in space and time.
As everyone who has perceived this remarkable simplicity knows full well, it is nearly impossible to express it in writing. Why? How can one speak fully of multidimensional Allness while using words which are, after all, mere symbols of symbols, man-made, sequential and locked into the habitual mode of thought that regards one's struggle to be from ignorance at the bottom to light at the top, while believing time and space to be the final dimension?
Surely a first step in discerning the Real is the perception that all the shadow events are appearing within one's own head, so to speak. This inner nature of comprehension is central to everything. Lo, subjectivism is born. Subjectivism is the second plateau along the apparent climb upward, the intellectual, self-centered time, the arrogant and superior time. Remember, Identity exists already, so the "climb," the "progress" and "pathway," and all things else in time and space, are retrospective to and from the true Nature of Being.
The "pathway" from ignorance to Light (as it seems) is like one daydreaming aboard a Ship, looking at the wake in the far distance, then following that wake backwards toward the ship where one is; thence, "finally" in time, awakening to the Presence of Ship whereon one sits and learns of the qualities and attributes of Ship. Aboard the Ship, one looks back at the wake and sees everything there CONFIRMING the Fact of Ship, his experience seeming like a long swim to reach the knowledge that Identity is perfectly birthed-and berthed-within the Ineffable.
This analogy is not precise in all ways, but we will straighten every imprecise point before many more pages. Remember, reader with whirling head, we are moving through the thickets of cosmology and theology quickly, there is a breakout into a remarkable comprehension along the way. Be patient just a little longer. After all, time and space have puzzled thinkers for ten thousand years-and we are soon to understand them both!
The pathway from the trailing edges of the wake back to the ship is often likened to climbing a mountain. At the peak one discovers the true nature of Identity which Life (awareness) has been all the while. The human experience is all mountain climb-none of it real, but all of it necessary retrospective confirmation of the Real.
It is important that the reader understand these metaphysical points if he is to get his intellectual itch scratched. This inverse order of events is seldom understood in metaphysical teaching and few who call themselves students of Truth have their subjectivism straight. But hear this: In Truth, it makes no difference whether anyone understands Godhead or not. Godhead is SELF-UNDERSTANDING, happening in timelessness. Life is that "happening" in progress. But to UNDERSTAND God's allness is to be able to make it through this repeating human experience and FIND the Child-Identity made in the Image of God. It is also to learn the grand Equation, live it, and assist our own subjective view of "others" in making the climb successfully and "returning" to Source. "We" came from that timelessness and we are going there again, to paraphrase the words of Jesus.
The author doesn't claim to have reached the final peak of understanding, not knowing how many other mountains may remain to climb, but I have been shown the Equation which is the pearl, the Key to overcoming in "this world." To say that another way, I am not at all times consciously aboard the ship, but I am holding the boarding ladder, reaching out for "others" swimming my way. I stand atop Da Shan, one arm reaching up, holding the One; one arm reaching down to assist those on the slopes of the world. The true Identity of the reader is in exactly the same place.
Metaphysics suggests that a knowledge of images leads to a knowledge of What stands behind images. This has been precisely true in my experience. Specifically, a knowledge of the electromagnetic energies called "light" have led me straight to a greater knowledge of Light, for which the limited light of the world is an image. My use of the term "photon" as a particle of light in some of the essays following does not cover the whole range of science's meanings for light, but it suffices to explain a most meaningful parallel in our rediscovery of Identity. Just as light appears to behave in two ways, so we appear to have two identities-one of them limited and finite, the other quite infinite; one of them located as a point in time and space, the other virtually omnipresent, existing on both sides of time.
WHY THE DUAL APPEARING OF IDENTITY?
Why does Identity appear dual in nature? That is, why the "real" Identity and the facsimile who struggles with ego and the like? Why the Real and the one in the world that fools us so? Why the one atop Da Shan and the other on the slopes? If God is All in all and omnipotent, why not one identity to start with, pure, perfect, made in the image of God? Why the second man, made of the elements of the earth? Religion stopped trying to answer this question in the first century of Christianity. Metaphysics has given no practical answer whatever. The body of this book will answer that ancient enigma to the satisfaction of scientist and philosopher alike.
First, understand that the Genuine Identity, the Soul of us, the Child of us, is that one atop the Mountain, unbound by time and space, residing in the heart of Godhead beyond Name and, simultaneously, everywhere on Da Shan-not unlike the simple photon which, moving at the speed of light, is virtually everywhere in space nearly simultaneously. That is the genuine (and only) Identity (Image of God-Self) as God made it.
Our time on Da Shan, perhaps many linear lifetimes-certainly nearly eleven thousand years in the present experience-is our "descent into matter" or "into hell" as it is spoken of theologically. That is, it is the time of learning via contradistinction. It is the accumulation of conscious knowledge wherein the experiences on Da Shan allow one to comprehend and fully appreciate the wonders of Ineffability and the rediscovery of the Original Identity.
This embodied, human struggler is the "second" identity, the one apparently bound to time and space, destined to measure tangibility to its limits in his quest for the Original. The second identity, arising after the mist, is man's tendency to forget his birthright, moving away from God toward selfness-into ego and multiplicity. As the Tree of Life prepares to bloom and seed, there will be a universal reversal of this tendency. We find the Child still alive and untouched within us. We begin the conscious return to the Father's house, Light beyond light.
Our difficult times on Da Shan bring our appeals to Ineffability, God, for deliverance and salvation. Who doesn't turn to God when he's starving or when his life is threatened? The Entity, the "angel" nearest us-beside the Ineffable Itself-always present, ever listening to us and knowing our condition and thoughts, is the Original Child of Us, awaiting that call, eager to answer, capable of taking us through the monstrous metaphysical mazes of our own making.
Our experiences on Da Shan are exactly what is necessary to bring us Knowledge, thence to exchange the personal sense, the climber's role, for the Child. Every step we make consciously up the mountain, we are less the climber and more the Child, until, atop Da Shan with the world under our feet, we have consciously "returned" to the Child of God, this time KNOWING our heritage.
There, which is right here where the struggler reads these words, we encompass all the world at once (subjectively) and become the NO-PLACE, NO-THING where the Ineffable flows through to tangibilty and becomes our new, subjective world; and where the world's tangible essences return to Ineffability. We become the NO-Place, NO-Thing, Way, the DOOR between Ineffability and the world. This is what Pure Life has always been, the exchange point, the midpoint between Above and Below, Outside and Inside, First and Last, Male and Female, Spirit and Matter.
It is metaphysical folly to lay claim to Identity who isn't a climber without making the paradoxical climb in linear time.

No one I think is in my tree, I mean it must be high or low.
That is you can't you know tune in but it's all right.
That is I think it's not too bad.
Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.
Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see.
It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out.
It doesn't matter much to me.
Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.
Always know sometimes think it's me, but you know I know and it's a dream.
I think I know of thee, ah yes, but it's all wrong.
That is I think I disagree.
Let me take you down, 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields.
Nothing is real and nothing to get hung about.
Strawberry Fields forever.
Strawberry Fields forever.
Strawberry Fields forever.
