non-duality

In the sleeping dream the character seems real, but what is going on in the dream is just happening.   Do you think it is in charge of the dream, or itself and what is going on there?  It is not in charge, but it will tell you it is. It all just happens. In the dream, the awake character disappears, its gone, and another one arises in the sleeping dream. Come to see what is actually going on.

Its already here, where else would it be?  There is only here, there is only now, all the time.  From that premise, we start to identify what we are not, instead of I am a person and now I am going to discover who I really am.  The only place duality arises, is in the mind of a human being, Outside of this, there is no such thing as duality. It is only the mind that says, “I am a person” Me is just a notion that arises in mind.

What’s  not just happening?  The aim of that particular pointer is to eliminate the seeming doer.  There is not a me that is trying to make stuff happen, or not make stuff happen, or trying to see that everything is just happening.  All that too, is just happening.

What Can A Mind Actually Experience?

A thought can’t be conscious of this, it cant experience this here now.  Mind can only see now as an increment, why, because mind works dualistically. 
Now cant be recognised or experienced  by a me.  Me is nothing but word, a concept.  A word is just a label,  all words, are just labels. Then what mind does, because of the way  mind works, dualistically, it takes the label to be the thing, and its just a label.
The word Me, is that not a label?

All there ever is, is now.  There is no such thing as the past, no such thing as a future. 

This now is recreating itself now, constantly. Everything is bursting into existence right now. 
Everything we think we know, is based on an assumption, not a fact, an assumption, or a belief.  If there is only now, what can you compare now with.  Direct experience is always just now.  Anything mind says is a story, not related to direct experience. Can the mind experience this present moment?

It feels like awareness is in the body, the truth is, its literally everywhere. This seeming personal me that you take yourself to be, must be seen to be an imposter.  When you are stuck in your me, that seems like a tall order because me absolutely feels like it here.   Its right there, that awareness and consciousness becomes finite. Do we really have any idea how profound conscious and awareness is?

How can a thought be conscious?  It's so easy to overlook the fact that thoughts aren't aware.  So what is thought basing its story on?  It's pure fabrication, like a dream at night.  The personal 'me' will never get this.  Don't go to the mind (thought) for answers. 
Just don't go there.  Full Stop!  - Terrence

Trust your Direct Experience, not mind. You don't need mind to know your Direct Experience.  As you observe Direct Experience you'll eventually lose interest in the mind and you'll become interested in 'This' - Awareness.  You are 'This'  - Terrence

The me becomes a seeker, trying to find your actual self. 
This awareness that we are all experiencing right here, right now, is not the me experiencing that.

What can you tell me about the immediacy of now? 
What can you possibly compare now to? 
Mind makes up a past and future, show me something from the past, or the future.
In the absolute now, the mind is in abeyance. Become aware of the mind that overlays a big story about now.

In this recording we look at the question “Who am I”  “What am I”  

There is an assumption that there is a me, a person here and we have never even investigated, we’ve never really looked.  What goes with the idea that I am a person, is that I have free will.  We look at thoughts and investigate how all seeming problems arise in the mind.
