Doubt and Confusion | How To Find God | Meditation: What Is It? | Learning About Self-Awareness

Here the matter is the matter of doubt, doubt and confusion. Why is this present in our lives? Why are our actions problematic actions, conflicting actions? Because we are basically stuck in a pattern of repetitive thought. We have a way of dealing with life based on the criteria of thought. Thus, our actions are directed by thought.

There is a quality of action that we are unaware of. It is action free from the model, from the structure of this internal conditioning, from this programmed way of dealing with situations that is based on the motive of thought. I am referring to this psychological thought. What is this psychological thought?

We have an action, in life, that is very simple, very natural; technical actions are actions like this. When you occupy yourself with a certain task, all the knowledge you have there, all the skill or technique you have there, is something present due to knowledge you bring, experience you bring; thus, you make use of thought, of the structure of technical knowledge, of specialization. This quality of action is simple. There is no confusion or emotional disorder in this quality of action; it is the action of knowledge and experience.

However, in our relationships, what we experience in our actions is the presence of confusion and doubt. Doubt and confusion are present in my relationship with you, in your relationship with him or her, in your relationship with situations in life. Thus, the presence of doubt and confusion constitutes a problem you cannot address, because you do not know how to look at it. To become aware of the problem is to attack the problem directly.

Our basic idea is to escape the problem, to run away from the problem, to free ourselves from the problem without the direct understanding of it. This produces even more doubts and more confusion, because when you try to escape a problem, you have present in that attempt to escape, in that movement of fleeing, the presence of fear. Thus, fear drives us to run away; running feeds fear and, thus, we remain in doubt and confusion.

What we lack in life is the awareness of this self-discovery, for a lucid, clear mind that deals with life without this model of repetitive thought. This thought that repeats is psychological thought; therefore, it is not that thought you make use of to deal with common intelligence in these technical matters. Here we need the presence of an Intelligence of another order-the Intelligence that allows us to deal with the present moment free from thought.

We do not need this background of psychological thought to deal with him or her, to deal with ourselves, to deal with matters in life. What is necessary here is the presence of Intelligence-and Intelligence is this clear, lucid mind that deals with the moment without the past. The mind we know is the mind trapped in a pattern of conditioning; in this conditioning, we have this movement of repetitive thought. This thought repeats because it has not completed itself; they are experiences that have not ended.

When you annoy me, offend me, hurt me, the element present here, this "me," this "I," becomes offended, becomes annoyed, becomes hurt, and we register this. When we meet each other again, there it is that quality of feeling in this relationship due to the presence of this thought, this idea that I have about you, about who you are to me. This is what we are calling thought that repeats, thought that continues. This is the psychological thought in this structure of the "I," in this structure of the "ego."

Thus, we have a quality of memory that deals with practical matters in life, and we have a quality of memory that deals with abstractions. This feeling of pain in the relationship, the presence of rejection, anguish, boredom, depression, stress, all this represents a quality of action in the behavior of each one of us, where this movement is present, which is the movement of the "I," of the "ego," this background of memories that are present unnecessarily in this body and mind. These thoughts haven't been concluded; they are present here, giving shape and foundation to this "I."

To examine this closely, to become aware of this whole process, requires understanding the truth about this, which represents looking directly. Learning about Self-awareness is to be open to this moment so that we may know directly the Reality that is present here beyond the known, which reveals itself when we discover the art of Meditation. There is something present in Life, and without this vision of what is present here, there is no Love, Beauty, Freedom.

What brings into your life the presence of Love, Happiness, Peace, this Beauty, is the presence of Meditation. Therefore, what is Meditation? Meditation, what is it? It is the presence of this Awareness of Being, something that reveals itself to you as being You in your Natural State of Being, free from this background of psychological memories, free from this "I," this structure of repetitive movement.

The presence of this mind conditioned for reactive responses, responses born of the past-the presence of this mind is the presence of the ego. The Truth of Meditation, which Blossoms when there is Self-awareness, allows this Life to reveal itself here and now, without the "I," without the "ego." This is the Truth of an encounter with God in this encounter with Life.

The question is: How to find God? For this question there is only one answer: The encounter with God is present when the "I," the "ego," is no longer present, when this structure of mental conditioning, of psychological conditioning, of psychological memory, is no longer present. Therefore, attending to this moment requires this Intelligence that frees you from the illusion of being someone here who is offended, hurt, sad, annoyed with him or her.

Your Natural State of Being is free of the "I" and therefore free of suffering. There is no doubt or confusion in this Being that is You. It is the presence of the egoic mind, in its movement of psychological disorder, feeding this separation between you and the other, between you and life, between you and God, that sustains problems and, naturally, conflicts and suffering.

When we know how to listen to this, when we learn to really listen to what is being addressed here, these matters become, for each one of us, of great relevance, of great importance, and, yes, it is something that deserves to be considered with depth-all these issues we address here with you, because they involve the Beauty of an encounter with transformation; with the transformation that is born of Self-awareness, of this learning about Self-awareness. This Reveals Life, this Reveals God.

And it is what we are investigating here with you, the possibility, in this life, of freeing ourselves from this center, this "I," this "ego," to go beyond this person who lives within this superficiality of life, this artificial life-offending, being offended, hurting, being hurt, annoying others and being annoyed, saddening the world and living the sadness of the world.

Therefore, is it possible for this transformation to occur so that we no longer cultivate this background of this model of psychological thought? This is something very, very radical; it is a complete rupture, a profound change, it is the end of memory, the end of thought. Thus, practical memory for technical matters continues, but the weight of psychological memory is no longer there, because now this Reality is present of this encounter with Life, with the Divine Reality, with the Truth of this Being.

Generally, in the process of transforming ourselves or seeking a transformation in life, we pursue this in a technical manner as well, making use of some level of technical knowledge as well, and here we are telling you that this is entirely unnecessary. Everything we need for this real transformation, for this real perception of Reality-what some call the Awakening of Consciousness-everything we need is to discover how to stop nurturing this psychological memory, this idea "I was this yesterday and I will be that tomorrow."

This "I will be" is the cultivation of memory, and every movement you make toward this cultivation of memory is still the continuation of this memory; it is the memory that continues-perhaps in another format, but the "I," the "ego," is there. For this reason, there is no real change, no real transformation in this center. Here it is about the detonation of this center, the end of this center, its disappearance.

We have insisted a lot on this here, because we need to hear this a lot, really a lot. This is why we are always returning to these matters. The angles are different, but we are looking in this direction. This quality of communication here is quite complicated, because, as people, we cannot listen, we cannot see the Beauty in this appreciation of these themes, because we are too involved in this life of the "I," this life of the ego.

If you are here and now, it is because something touched you internally to discover something beyond the mind, beyond the known, beyond this pattern, which is the pattern of a person, of someone in life. Yes, there is something present beyond all of this, and when we know how to listen correctly, something happens, something arises. The real invitation to Life is the invitation to Freedom, to Love, and Happiness. The Awareness of God is this; it is the Awareness of this Being; it is the Awareness about You. This is what we are working on here together.

It is like when you find yourself in an extremely pleasant place; in that moment, your mind quiets down, the brain becomes silent, and a new, inner space arises within you, of deep relaxation, of deep contemplation of that instant, of that moment. And when this is present, the "I" is not present, the "ego" is not present. At certain moments in life we feel this way.

When we are listening to music or watching a sunset, or hearing the sound of the waves there, seated on a beach, in that moment there is a natural stillness. You did not silence the mind; it silenced itself. You did not make use of a technique or meditation practice. Therefore, the real sense of Meditation is this space that arises naturally when the sense of the "I" is not present. Here we have various videos working on this with you.

When you discover what it is to look at the present moment without the past, you do not draw conclusions, you do not make evaluations, you do not make choices, and this reveals this space of silence, of stillness, and something is present here beyond the mind. Our invitation here is toward a free Life, a Real Life, a Life in this true encounter with God, in this living this Being, in this living the Divine.

Thus, these meetings we have here on weekends. we have online meetings here on Saturday and Sunday. I want to extend this invitation to you, two days in an online format. Here, in the description of the video, you have our link to participate in these meetings. In addition to these online meetings, we have in-person meetings and also retreats. If what you have just heard is something that makes some sense to you, here is an invitation: Leave your "like", subscribe to the channel, and write here in the comments, "Yes, this makes sense." Ok? And we'll see each other. Thanks for the meeting, and see you next time!

Spiritual Awakening. How to find God? Meditation: What Is It? Learning about Self-awareness.

The real comprehension of Life requires a vision free from illusion. The way we experience, in thought, is invariably always like this, coming from a mistake of ideas, beliefs, conclusions, and evaluations. This is how this 'I,' this 'me,' this 'person' experiences life.

Here we are investigating with you the Truth of the Revelation of That which is present here and which shows itself beyond the 'I' and, therefore, beyond this format of dealing with life, of dealing with the moment, of dealing with experience. In general, our criterion comes from the experiencer. So, we have to investigate this.

What are our experiences? They are experiences that happen from an entity that sees itself as present; this entity is this 'person,' it is this 'me.' This is how our experiences are; in them we have the presence of this experiencer and the situation, the event, which is the experience. This brings us closer to life in duality. We have, on one side, the experience, and on the other side, the experiencer.

The experiencer is the person that I am, and the experience is what I am living. That is what we are investigating here, the fallacy of this, the illusion present in this posture, in this condition of contact with life. The presence of this experiencer in the experience is the illusion of an entity being present.

When you come and ask: 'What is Spiritual Awakening?' It is the awareness of Life without the experiencer, it is the understanding of Existence without the 'I,' it is the perception of Reality when there is no longer this illusion, this separation, this idea of someone within life. Your Natural State of Being is One with Life, which represents this Real encounter with God. When you ask the question 'How to find God?', here is the answer: by assuming the Reality of Being, that which is present here is the Divine Reality.

We were educated into the belief that God is there, somewhere, distant and separate from 'me': 'I am here and He is there. I need to have a meeting with Him.' Notice, once again we place the image of an experience to be attained in the future, an experience for this experiencer. Thus, we were taught, educated into this belief, into this model, into this pattern of intellectual affirmation of this idea: the idea is 'I' and the 'non-I,' 'I' and God.

Thus, we have devoted ourselves to all kinds of paths, spiritual practices, techniques, teachings, to discover how to have this meeting, how to attain this meeting, and the idea is, basically, tomorrow, in this future of the mind, which is the psychological future. It is thought that projects this meeting, imagines this meeting, idealizes this meeting as an experience. It is thought, in this format of the thinker, that imagines the future for itself, having this meeting with God.

Divine Reality is the awareness of this Being, and awareness of this Being is the awareness of Life, and this is not something that separates itself from That which is You in your Divine Nature, in your Real Nature. How can we become aware of this? Through Meditation! Therefore, what is Meditation? 'Tell us about Meditation.' Most of us expect a teaching, a technique, a path. Meditation is the Flowering of your Being. There is no path to Meditation, there is no technique for Meditation.

Your contact with Meditation is your contact with yourself, and this is not learned from someone; we become aware of this. Here, there is a way of approaching this. Yes, there is a way, but it is not as thought imagines. The way of approaching the awareness that reveals God, which is the presence of Meditation, is learning to look without someone, to listen without someone.

Have you ever noticed that when you are in a place like by the edge of a river, watching the waters flowing, and your eyes, at that moment, are looking at those waters. See, this looking, when the eyes meet the waters, that light upon the waters, those trees around there, this meeting, in this looking, is only the looking. Have you ever noticed that at this moment there is no one looking, there is only the looking?

This 'someone' arises when a thought about that arises. But when there is only the looking, this someone does not exist; we do not have the presence of this someone because we do not have a thought about that, to like or dislike, to say: 'How beautiful this is!' 'What a wonderful place!' When thoughts like these arise, at that moment you arise and the looking is lost; it is no longer there. At that moment, you are present absorbed in a psychological condition of idea, which is the presence of thought. But when there is only the looking, there is no thought, there is no idea, there is no image whatsoever about that. It is only the looking, and in that instant there is no 'I,' there is no psychological background to like or dislike, to appreciate or not appreciate.

There is a quality of Being present, and this Being is the Nature of Life, it is the Divine Nature. At this moment, for a few seconds, this state of mind changes: the mind quiets, your brain becomes silent, and in that instant there is an encounter with Meditation. This happens when you are before a sunset or a sunrise. For a few seconds, there is no one in this looking, in this perceiving, in this verifying.

Here, the presence of Meditation, in the same way that you did not learn how to look at that river, that sunset, here we do not need to learn how to look, it is just to look. To look at a thought that arises carrying a sensation, or a feeling that arises loaded with a quality of thoughts, just look, without interfering with it. In this looking, something reveals itself beyond this 'I,' so this thought does not sustain itself, this feeling and thought do not establish themselves.

Thus, the mind quiets, the brain becomes silent, and a new, inner space opens up; in this space, Meditation reveals itself. It is not someone meditating. It is the presence of the space of Silence itself, of stillness, of the absence of this 'I,' of the absence of this one to interfere, the very presence of Meditation. Therefore, learning about Self-awareness is becoming aware of these reactions when they arise, without interfering with them. Then, at this moment, the presence of Meditation reveals itself.

Therefore, what is Meditation? Meditation, what is it? It is the presence of this instant without the 'I.' And when we have this instant without the 'I,' we have the presence of Life. As there is no separation between Life as it is and the Reality of this Being, here we have the answer to the question 'How to find God?' It is present here. There is a Reality present; it is not the reality of someone, it is not the reality of something; it is the Truth of this Being, it is That which is here beyond everything, beyond names and forms.

Thus, the verification of the Truth of God consists in the Awareness of Being; this reveals this Natural State free from the 'I,' free from the 'ego.' This is the presence of Spiritual Awakening or Spiritual Awakening. Therefore, we need to discover, at this moment, what it is to have contact with this instant without the past. Without the past is without the idea of what this represents, it is without the interpretation that thought generally makes about life as it happens. Without the past, it is without choice, it is without liking and disliking. Without the past, it is without the image of what this represents.

It is very common for your contact with people to be established in this format. You are always dealing with people based on ideas you have about them. These ideas are the images you have of him or her. These images are memories you keep in this contact with him or her. Thus, we are constantly reinforcing this experiencer, because in life we are having experiences all the time.

A real invitation to this state free from the 'ego,' free from the 'I,' is the invitation to an experiencing without the experiencer, to a perceiving without the perceiver, to a relation without this background that sustains relationships, which is the image, the memory, the recollection of him or her. That is, when we no longer have the presence of the past, we no longer have the importance, the specialism of an identity that sees itself as present to control the situation, seeing itself as the center of the experience. This is the 'I,' the 'ego,' the presence of the experiencer.

Thus, to look at the moment, to look at life without the observer, to listen to the moment without this element that listens, is to no longer feed this specialism of the 'I.' And, thus, we discover that Life happens when there is no longer this someone. This is a vision of the Totality of Life without this psychological background. Therefore, your real encounter with God is the verification that what is present here is not the 'I,' is not the ego.

Notice that we are talking to you here about something natural. It is not something that is achieved, that is attained through effort. Thus, the presence of Meditation does not happen through effort, the vision of Self-awareness does not arise through effort. When we discover what it is to simply look, listen, perceive, we have the Revelation of That which is present here when the 'I' is not, when the 'ego' is not. And, thus, it becomes clear, in this relation with the life around us, that we are before Love, before Peace, before Freedom. This is the Peace in each one of us, the Love present, something innate, it is the Truth of this Being in each one of us.

This entity that separates itself does not exist, this 'me' that makes itself present does not exist. The presence of this vision, the presence of this understanding is the presence of God. Therefore, we need to become aware of this in life. Therefore, when we become aware of that which is present here, this relation becomes clear, this relation with actions, with thoughts, as well as with feelings, without someone present in this contact, in this relation. This quality of action is no longer the action of someone; it is the action of the Unknown, of That which is indescribable.

Contact with the Divine Reality is the end for the mind as we know it, for all the patterns of adjustments within ideas, beliefs, concepts, as we know them. Something new is present, and this something new means this action that is not born from the 'I,' it is action that is born from this Intelligence, from this Freedom. This occurs when we free ourselves from this false action of the 'I,' when we free ourselves from this idea of someone being present, when we free ourselves from this 'me.' Then, That which is eternal reveals itself, That which is unnameable, indescribable.

The very awareness of God is the Truth about You and, naturally, about the other. A Life free from suffering, free from confusion, free from disorder is the only Real Life. It is no longer life as thought knows it and recognizes it from itself; it is Life as it truly is when there is no longer the illusion of the 'I.'

The 'I' has created in us the illusion of what should be. The vision of life shows us, clearly, that there is no such thing as 'what should be'; it is Life as it is. To comprehend the Truth is Wisdom, it is the presence of Intelligence and of response free from the past. That is what we are interested in here with you. Our meetings are weekend meetings; we are Saturday and Sunday together.

I want to leave an invitation here for you. It is two days in an online format for us to deepen this. You have here, in the video description, our WhatsApp link to participate in these online meetings on the weekends. In addition to these meetings, we have in-person meetings and also retreats. If this is something that makes any sense to you, here is the invitation. Leave your like, subscribe to the channel, and leave a comment here: 'Yes, this makes sense.' Ok? And we'll see each other. Thanks for the meeting, and until next time!"

Learning about Self-Awareness | How to find God? | How to find Happiness? | Kundalini

It's quite common for some to think that an experience called kundalini is necessary to achieve this encounter with God. Here, the expression is "how to find," in the phrase "how to find God," or "how to find happiness." For some, it's about going through an experience; we need to investigate this, this question of experience.

When do we have an experience? It's when we remember what happened. We can only speak of an experience as a memory, as something we went through. Therefore, every memory refers to something that has already been, that has already occurred, that has already happened; it necessarily requires the presence of an element speaking of that lived experience. The presence of this element is the experiencer.

There is no experience without the experiencer, and we are emphasizing this all the time, the need to have an encounter with an experience for an encounter with Truth, for an encounter with God or with happiness. However, who is this element present for this encounter if not the very presence of the experiencer? But who is this experiencer? It is the one who recorded in the past what they lived. Therefore, it is not a new experience called an encounter with God that we need.

We do need to become aware of the Reality of God; that is the true encounter, but that is not an experience. Every experience, because there is an experiencer in that experience, what is present is the account of the continuity of this experiencer. But Divine Reality, the Reality of Happiness, is not for the "I." What is the truth of this "I," since this "I" is the experiencer itself, it is the element that comes from the past?

When we are addressing this question of this encounter with God, we are directly stating the real need for the end of the past model, the end of the model of the experiencer, which is the "I." Therefore, the truth of the encounter with Happiness, of the encounter with God, resides in the comprehension of the truth about the "I," which is the experiencer. Therefore, this encounter does not reside in an experience. This encounter is something that is present when the experiencer is no longer there and, therefore, the experience is no longer present.

For most people, tired as they are of a tedious, repetitive, monotonous, problematic, unhappy life, they are projecting, idealizing an encounter with a profound, meaningful, rich experience that they call kundalini. The expression "kundalini" does indeed point to an experience for most people. However, the truth of this encounter with Supreme Reality is not an experience.

Therefore, the expression "kundalini," which refers to this Presence or this energy of Divine Consciousness, of Real Consciousness, is not for the experiencer. Therefore, it is not something like an experience, but something that reveals itself precisely when there is no longer the model of continuity of an identity that returns with its memory, its past, its recollection, its experience.

So, there's a great deal of confusion here when people use the expression "kundalini," because they identify it as an experience for someone, the experiencer, whereas Divine Reality, the Reality of God, which is this Supreme Presence or Energy, is the absence of the "I," the absence of any experience. That is kundalini.

What is present as the real presence of kundalini reveals itself in the absence of the "I," in the absence of the ego, in the absence of an experiencer. Then, an energy, which is this Divine Presence, occupies this space in this body and in this mind. So, it is in this sense that we have to comprehend what the answer to the question "how to find God" means, as well as "how to find happiness," as well as "how to find love."

We are talking about the Reality of this Being, which is God, which is this Presence. In this sense, the expression "kundalini," which points to this Divine Energy, this absence of that center, which is the "I," is the Reality of kundalini, it is the Reality of Being, it is the Reality of God.

See, we are dealing with different expressions pointing to a single Reality, which is present here when there is no longer illusion. However, no matter how broad, deep, and significant an experience may be for someone, that experience will still remain within that quality of experience for the experiencer, and that experiencer will retain that experience and will need new experiences, because no experience is definitive. What is present as real, is not an experience, it is not something that happens in time and repeats itself in time.

The truth, therefore, of Kundalini, the truth, therefore, of God, of Happiness, the truth, therefore, of this Being is something that is present here, but it is not what happens in time, it is something that reveals itself when there is no more time. The presence of time, notice, is the presence of the model of continuity. We never speak of time without continuity.

Time, for all of us, is what was, what is, and what will be. It is here that the presence of time resides. But where is time situated when we no longer have thought? If no thought is present within you, in what time are you? Are you in the past, the present, or the future? When thought is not, how is it possible for the idea of ??the present to arise? See, the present is an idea that arises between what was and what will be, between the past and the future.

There is no time when there is no thought. There is no experience when there is no past. There is no past without time. There is no time without thought. Therefore, the reality of Kundalini is that which is outside of time and, therefore, outside of experience. And I repeat: If there is no experience, there is no experiencer.

This moment here is a moment of contact with what is. Yes, there is a quality of experiencing, but the experiencer does not exist in this quality of experiencing. There is nothing to say about what happened, about what is happening. So, there is no such thing as what happened, or what is happening, or what will happen when there are no records. These records are memories, recollections, experiences recorded for the experiencer.

So, the great truth of the Awakening of this Real Presence, this timeless Consciousness, is Kundalini, but it is not for someone. It is precisely when there is no longer this "me," this "someone," then we have That which is timeless, That which is outside of time, That which is not part of the model of continuity, which is recollection, memory, records in this brain.

The question is: How does this encounter with God, this Kundalini Awakening, become possible? Comprehend, this encounter with God, this Kundalini Awakening is not something in time. The idea of ??encountering is in time, the idea of ??awakening is in time, but notice how interesting all this is. When you are sleeping and you wake up, did this awakening occur in time? Awakening is something that happens, but there is not a relation between time and awakening. In awakening, the illusion of the continuity of sleep, of the continuity of the dream, becomes clear.

Therefore, the awareness of Awakening is the vision of That which is outside of continuity, outside of the known, something entirely different; we are before something radically new, unknown, unnamable, indescribable. This is the presence of this Awakening, this is the presence of this awareness of That which is timeless, of That which is not in the known, of That which is not in continuity, of That which puts an end to continuity, or the idea, or the thought of continuity.

So, the question is: How does this become possible? This becomes possible when we learn about ourselves. It is fundamental to have the awareness of how thought processes itself within each of us. When you discover what it is to look without interfering with thought, you realize that thought moves within this perspective of continuity, of permanence of time.

Learning about Self-awareness is discovering how to look at our reactions and clearly perceive that thought is the memory of what has already been. It is this thought that speaks to us of what is here, from its own perspective, and speaks to us of what will be, from the imagination it brings of itself. This is the continuity of the thought model. This is exactly how we function.

The idea of ??a person, of being someone present, is a thought that speaks to this "me," this "I," that came from the past and is here, now, moving towards the future. When we learn to look at this movement of thought, that is learning about ourselves. When we learn to listen to this movement, to perceive this movement without interfering with it, we approach this instant that reveals something outside the thought model and, therefore, something outside the model of continuity, which is the presence of time.

Therefore, when time ends, because thought has ended, we have the Revelation of That which is present here beyond the known; this is Real Consciousness, Divine Consciousness, God, Happiness, Kundalini, whatever name you want for That which is beyond an experience, an experiencer, an identity that moves in time, which is this person.

Therefore, speaking of this encounter with God, speaking of this encounter with happiness, for the person, is an illusion. The person will never be happy; they will experience moments of pleasure, moments of satisfaction, moments of fulfillment, but along with these moments, other moments will arise. So, the person has moments of peace, of what they understand as peace, moments of pleasure, of what they understand as pleasure, which when we investigate, when we look closely at this peace, it is not real peace; this pleasure is also laden with suspicion, dread, dependence, and fear.

So, the Truth of Happiness is not for the person; it is the nature of this Being, it is the nature of the Truth about You when Reality, which is Supreme Reality, is present here. That is the Reality of God. Therefore, to speak of kundalini as an experience is a misconception. Therefore, to speak of happiness as an experience is a deception. We are dealing with the still-present model of thought projecting what thought imagines to be God in this encounter, to be kundalini in this encounter, to be happiness, to be love in this encounter.

Thus, thought is always projecting this, and everything it projects, in reality, is within its known context. Anything it finds will still be part of it, will be within its own model. Thus, when people speak of experiences they have had, they are speaking of what they lived, but they remain there.

The Reality of this Being is not an experience for someone, it is the Revelation of That which is present here when someone, this "me," this "I," is no longer here. Therefore, Happiness is not a state for a person, just like Love, Freedom, Peace, the awareness of God, the awareness of this Being. That's what we're here with you, working on in these meetings.

We have online meetings on weekends, where we're together Saturday and Sunday - two days online. I want to extend an invitation to you. You can find our link to participate in these online weekend meetings in the video description. In addition to these meetings, we also have in-person meetings and retreats. If this makes sense to you, consider this an invitation. "Like" the video, subscribe to the channel, and comment: "Yes, this makes sense." Okay? See you soon. Thanks for the meeting and until next time!

Learning about Self-Awareness | How to Find God? | How to Find Happiness? | Karma

It is quite interesting when people use expressions like 'so-and-so does not have good karma' or 'I think I do not have good karma.' This is an expression that we borrowed from Sanskrit. So, in India, the expression is common.

The word 'karma' means action. Generally, people use the expression 'karma' in the sense of a response that is coming from the past. So, they are receiving, according to their beliefs, the beliefs that they have, the result of their bad actions when something bad is happening. But, notice, we are dealing here with ideas.

What we have done together here, what we are doing together in all these meetings is investigating the truth about illusion. This is why here we are investigating with you these aspects of the mind. The mind as we know it, is the mind trapped in a model of concepts, of beliefs, suggestions, ideas.

The mind that we know is a mind that was educated, taught, oriented in this direction. We have a mind that is trapped in models of cultural, social, religious, philosophical, political thoughts. We have a conditioned mind, loaded, full of these models.

We need to discover life happening in this instant, exactly as life is, and not as thought tells us it is, and not as thought tells us it should be or what it is being because of this, that or the other thing.

We live making these connections between cause and effect, we speak of action and reaction, we speak of results that are coming from the past to 'me.' However, who is this 'me'? Who is this 'I'? Who am I?

In the search for God, where the question 'how to find God' comes in, our idea is of a project also from an evolution, from a growth, from a change of behavior and, therefore, of actions to obtain this result, which is this encounter with God, something that we will do, that we will attain, in the future. However, what we are seeing here with you is: What is the truth about all of this? That is the question, it is what we are seeing here with you.

What is this that, in thought, we imagine to be God? In the belief that we received, which is the thought that we have today, we carry this image that it is there to be found by 'me.' What is the truth about this 'me'? What are, in fact, our actions and also our reactions?

Comprehending ourselves, learning about ourselves, learning the truth about oneself, learning about Self-Awareness is what brings us close to a real vision of the Truth of Life, without these ideas. We love ideas, we love conclusions, we love beliefs, we love affirming that which was given to us as knowledge, and that today we have as something that we have acquired and we keep making affirmations of this kind, about cause and effect, karma, no karma, about God, about life, about the "why" of things.

We are trapped because we love theories, we love this knowledge that is acquired, but we do not appreciate the investigation of Truth about ourselves. We are only accumulating information, acquiring more and more knowledge about things, as if this could give us a comprehension of life for a quality of action real and free, real in Love, real in Freedom.

Therefore, when we also speak of this encounter with God, or of this encounter with Happiness, the idea is the idea of an action that makes this possible for us, that frees us from this so-called 'bad karma.' We need to have an encounter with God, we need to have an encounter with Happiness, we need to have an encounter with Truth, but we stay in this idea, in this theory.

This learning about oneself is not something that fascinates, it is not something that enchants us. While, in fact, what we need in life is not more theories, philosophies, beliefs, concepts or ideas. What we, in fact, need in life is to have an approach of ourselves for a direct comprehension of the truth about who we are. Then, yes, we come across our reactions.

Observe that actions are not actions that are only producing consequences. Observe that our actions are actions that are oriented by the model of thought; naturally, they are actions that are born from the past. Yes, they are reactive actions. Thus, we are not before free actions that are attending to this moment in an intelligent way. When you say: 'I do not have good karma,' what exactly does this mean? Who is this 'I'? Just as what is this karma to which you refer?

The word that we borrowed from some language has, for each one of us, a certain meaning, and we use the word with this freedom of that we in fact comprehend the meaning of that. But what is the meaning of the word 'karma'? The idea of action, the concept of action is a model of thought that we have about that. What is the reality, what is the truth of this expression, of this word?

The other question here is: Who is this 'I'? Who is this in the action? Who is this that has such a thing as good karma or bad karma? Who am I? When we affirm the presence of the person that we are, we are affirming a suggestion given by thought. It is thought that tells us who we are.

But what is the truth about you when thought has nothing to say about this? What is the Reality of this Being that is You when the word, the pronoun 'I,' is not present? Who are you? If we do not know the truth about this 'I,' how can we make affirmations about the action of this 'I'? Let us investigate with you here a bit this question of action.

Our actions are actions that, in fact, happen, but they have as a model the premeditation of thought. When you take an action, this action from this 'I' is an action that is born from thought. So, first we have the thought and then the action. The foundation of the order is thought, the plan and the execution. This is what we call action. What we have present in this action is something that comes from the past as a thought in expression.

Thus, our actions are not free actions, they are reactive actions that are born from a reaction of memory, from a model of thought. We are constantly interacting with each other from reactions. When I am dealing with you, it is from the idea about who I am in this action that I believe I need it to interact with you.

Our actions in this format are actions that do not correspond to the Reality of the moment, because they adjust themselves to a model of thought that comes from the past; thus, they are personal actions, particular, centered in this 'I,' in this model of thought that we bring from the past. Thus, our actions are egocentric actions.

When, for example, we speak of having an encounter with God, we still believe that it will be from models of actions established by us in practices so-called spiritual to attain this, that is, they are still actions that are born from a plan predetermined by the model of thought. But can thought have an approach to Divine Reality? Can the action that is born from this 'I' bring us close to that which is beyond thought, beyond reactive actions, beyond this 'I'?

Divine Reality is not within this context of possible encounter. When we address the Reality of God, we are pointing to something beyond the mind and, therefore, beyond thought, beyond our reactions and beyond this suggestion of image that we have about who we are, which is this 'I.'

Therefore, what is this finding God in the question 'How to find God'? This finding God is coming across the Reality of Life without the 'I,' without the mind, without the model of reaction or of action that comes from the past, which is the fruit of thought. This is what we need to comprehend.

You cannot have an encounter with God. Divine Reality can, yes, reveal itself, and in fact it does reveal itself when we discover that which is present here beyond thought, beyond our reactions, beyond this image established in us, which is the image of this 'I.'

So, the true encounter with Happiness, in the question 'how to find Happiness,' the true encounter with God, in the question 'how to find God,' this requires the discarding of illusion, this requires the discarding of the model of thought, because thought is the establishment of the illusion of an identity that sees itself present, which is the 'I,' taking actions that, in truth, are reactions because they are born from thought itself.

As thought in us is the structure of an image or of an imagination that thought itself establishes as being real, we are dealing with something false. The Reality of the moment is the Reality of Life. There is no other Reality present in this moment that is not the Supreme Truth, the Divine Truth.

Therefore, it is not something for the future, it is not something that you find, it is Something that reveals itself when we have the foundation for this. And what is that which gives us the foundation for the Truth of this encounter with God, of this encounter with Happiness? The foundation is to know oneself. The truth about the 'I' is the comprehension of an image that thought has established in you about who you are.

When I ask your name, you tell me your name; when I ask your address, you give me your address; when I ask you about your history, you describe events. Notice, all of this is the past. Your address is knowledge, which is the past, your name also, and your history also, but this is not you. What is the Reality about you? You do not have it based on thought. You will never have the truth about you in thought.

Therefore, comprehending Reality is going beyond thought. It is when you have the Truth about Life. It, the Truth about Life, is the Truth about You. There is no separation between you and Life, but between your history and Life we have a distance; this distance, established in time, is established in thought.

Thought is in time, it is the portrait of the past, it is the portrait of images established in memory, and memory in your brain is remembrance, it is what has already been, while the Reality here and now is the Truth of Life, and the Truth of Life is Real Happiness, it is the true encounter with God.

God is the Reality of the moment when illusion is not, and illusion is a model of the past, it is a model of thought, it is a model of memory seeking to establish itself now as being real. So, what we have as an illusion is the past seeking to establish itself in this instant as being true, while there is no such thing as a past here, what we have here is only a recollection, a remembrance.

Notice that this is how we are guiding our lives, positioning the person that 'I am,' speaking of a possibility, which is the possibility of having an encounter with God; but this 'person,' which is the 'I,' is a fiction, it is an imagination, it is an idea established here, by thought, it is a construct in this brain.

It is the brain that establishes memory, and in this set of remembrances, thought places an imaginary entity, which is the 'I.' What we have present in this moment is Life. Life is what happens; what happens is action. Here, the word 'karma' for the person is the idea of someone in action. While, in life, what we have is the presence of what occurs, it is the presence of what happens, but there is no someone.

There is no entity present in life as it happens, but thought has established in us the idea of someone who sees themselves present. I say it again: This someone is a set of memories, of remembrances, of reactions responses from the past, which are these recollections. This is your name, this is your history, this is your age, this is your body, but the question continues: Who are you?

When do you become aware of the body? When do you become aware of the name, of the address and of the history? Isn't it when thought arises? When there is no thought, we do not have the presence of the body nor of history, nor of name, nor of age. When we do not have the presence of thought, we do not have the presence of memory. Without memory, there is no age, there is no history, there is no past, there is no body, there is no mind, there is no world.

It is thought that makes you remember that you have two hands, a pair of eyes. Observe that before this utterance, when we used here the expression 'a pair of eyes,' you had no idea of eyes. The idea arises when thought arises, then you become aware that you have a pair of eyes, that you have a pair of hands, that you have a body.

There is a Reality here present and this Reality is the Reality of this Being, this is the Truth of God, this Truth of Happiness, this is the Truth of Life. This reveals itself when you learn about yourself. Learning about yourself is discarding the illusion of this 'me' in this comprehension of the Reality of the moment, without the past, without memory, without thought. This is learning about Self-Awareness.

In this learning about oneself, it becomes clear that when we direct ourselves toward the investigation of the 'I,' of the nature of ourselves, something reveals itself beyond this 'me,' beyond this 'I.' When you go toward the answer to the question 'Who am I?,' it becomes clear that this 'I' is not. There is Something revealing itself beyond this set of memories, of remembrances, of recollections, beyond this 'I,' which is an image that thought has established there as being you.

We have this revelation when the awareness of Meditation becomes present. Meditation is this encounter with Life without someone. There is no one for Meditation, there is Meditation, which is the investigation of the nature of this someone. The investigation of the nature of this someone is the discarding of this 'I.' So, life as it is shows itself, and in it there is no 'person,' the 'me.'

There is not this someone for actions or reactions. There is not this someone for this idea of action, as, in general, people use the expression 'karma' for good or bad actions. What we have present is the action of Life, and in it is this divine action. How to have this encounter with God? By becoming aware of the reality of the 'not I,' of the 'not person,' of this 'not me.'

The Truth present is Life. Life present is Happiness, and Happiness is God. It is not happiness for the 'I.' When we use the expression 'happiness' we identify this expression with external achievements, of fulfillment, of completeness, of satisfaction, of personal fulfillment. Happiness, as Life or Truth, is not personal. Reality is not for the person; God is the Reality, and That is present when there is no more illusion.

Therefore, to know yourself, to comprehend yourself is to assume the Truth of That Which You are, not of that which thought says you are, when people believe that you are, who they believe you are for them. It is the Reality that You are, not in their belief, not in the belief that you have about yourself, since all belief is the presence of thought, it is a suggestion given by memory, by the past, by remembrances of experiences through which he went through with you, she went through with you, or you had with yourself, but this is only thought. It is not the portrait of Reality about You; it is what thought tells you about what you lived, it is what thought says to these people about who you are.

There is a Reality present; it is not in the field of ideas, of recollections, of remembrances, of memories. Learning about yourself is having the Revelation of Life, it is having the Awareness of your Being, this is Happiness, this is the comprehension of God. To comprehend God is to Be. Being is God. This is Love, this is Peace, Freedom, Happiness.

Discovering the truth about yourself, assuming the Reality of Life is assuming non-duality, non-separation, the Truth that is present here when thought is no longer. Thought in us is the element that separates, that divides; therefore, it is the element that sustains and feeds conflicts, problems. All kinds of disorder and confusion in your life is in the particular life, where what is predominating is the presence of the past, which is memory.

You do not have any problem with regard to what will be; your problem, in thought, is with regard to what may happen for this 'I,' for this 'me.' When we do not have the presence of this 'I,' of this 'me,' thought loses its relevance; and if it loses relevance, there is no past, present and future.

We are not dealing with problems in the future, we are dealing with the model of thought that carries problems. As these thoughts come from the past, they can project themselves into the future, but to a future that is within the very model of thought. We do not have any awareness of the future; however, thought projects tomorrow and we are living in this pattern of model of thought, which is thought that establishes us in a pattern of time created by it. So, we are living either in the past or in the future.

This past and future is the past of thought itself. Free from thought, we are free from time. There is no such thing as the future when time is no longer present. There is no such thing as the past when time is no longer present, and time disappears when thought is not. Then, Happiness reveals itself here and now, in this Natural State of Being. This is the Real encounter with God. But, observe: There is no one having this encounter with God; this encounter with God is the Revelation of God to this body and this mind.

When the mind is free from the past, it is free from thought, because it is free from time, then God reveals itself. When God reveals Himself, the Reality that is You is Divine Reality, it is the Reality of Happiness. This Presence of Being is Meditation. Therefore, what we have as a foundation for a true approach to life is not an identity that directs itself toward the future, but it is the end of the illusion of an identity that is showing itself here in the moment because it is coming from the past.

Therefore, the comprehension of oneself is the end of this 'me.' When there is this comprehension, God is present. God is the Reality present assuming this space that is His in this instant, in this moment, in this body, in this mind. This is what we are here with you investigating, exploring.

Therefore, forget this idea of good karma or bad karma, forget this idea of past and future, of a past from which you have to free yourself and of a future that you need to reach. Reality is present here when we learn to look at this instant. The quality of this looking discards this background, which is the past, discards this future, which is imagination. The end of this past is the end of this future, it is the Awareness of Life, it is the Awareness of God.

Working this directly requires discovering how to look, how to listen, how to perceive our reactions, discarding the importance and value that we have given to this pattern, to this format, to this model of thought, of conditioned mind that we have. Then, the end of the past is the end of the future, it is the end of the idea of someone to get there, to obtain, to reach. Then, the Totality of the moment is the Truth of this instant, it is the Beauty of Love, it is the Beauty of God.

This is what we are together here, with you, working on, in these weekends. It is two days together: Saturday and Sunday. I want to leave an invitation here for you to work on this. It is two days in an online format. You have here, in the video description, our WhatsApp link for these online meetings. Besides these meetings, we have in-person meetings and also retreats. Therefore, if this is something that makes some sense to you, then here is an invitation. Go ahead and leave your "like", subscribe to the channel and put a comment here: 'Yes, this makes sense.' Okay? And we will see each other. Thanks for the meeting and until next time!

Learning About Self-awareness | The Awakening of Wisdom | What Is Thought? | Anxiety

The element that establishes us in this model, which is the model of becoming or ceasing to be, is the presence of thought. We cannot exhaust this subject; it is very vast. Paradoxically, it always starts from the same base, always points to the same principle and, nevertheless, it is something very extensive, requiring on our part this careful, investigative, exploratory, adventurous approach of looking, and looking, and looking once more, and continuing to look.

This learning about ourselves is not a thing for, after a few hours, you to say: "I know." It is a learning in which this verb is always here, without any change. It is not a verb that has a change; it has no verb tenses. It is a verb that, curiously, is not or is not located, is not for the person, is not located for the person. Learning, learning, learning... learning about oneself, learning about thought, the thought in you, how it happens, how it processes, how it acts, how it moves.

So, we are facing something that is fascinating. There is no adventure in life more extraordinary than this self-discovery. Look at people who go climbing, who bungee jump, or do hang gliding flights, or skydive, or involve themselves with extreme sports; they do not have the slightest idea of the adventure that it is to dive into this new dimension, to scale these heights, as well as to descend to these depths of the truth about oneself. This requires this learning about ourselves. As the entire base of the person, since the person is constituted of thoughts, investigating the nature of thought, the movement of thought within you, is the greatest of all adventures.

Look at your head: it is thought that says who you are and made you be who you are. So, who you are, is who thought shaped. You were shaped by thought. The person that you are, is just thought. What you feel, what you do, what you speak, what you do not do, what you do not feel, all of this has a hand in it, the approval, the presence of thought. Your future, your past, your present is thought. See, everything in the idea is within the model of thought. The comprehension of the truth about the "I", about the person, about you, reveals to you something beyond thought. Beyond thought, we no longer have this "you" with your life, with your history, with your memory, with your model of being someone. This is the great Discovery, this is the great Revelation, this is the great Awareness of the Unknown.

So, to investigate the nature of the "I", to investigate thought in each one of us, to investigate thought within you. You have no way to find this in psychology books, in religious books, in philosophy books. There is no book, no specialist who has ever written about you psychologically. Having the comprehension of oneself is to come across this vision, this adventure, the adventure of this learning about ourselves, of this learning about Self-awareness.

What importance does this have? All. In fact, in life, the only thing that matters is the Truth, and there is no Truth in the person, there is no Truth in this life of this someone, of this "me". There is no Truth. You are not the Truth as a person; you are a fraud, you are a fiction, you are an imagination established by thought for itself. It is in this relation that you are with the other; you are a fiction, an imagination, an idea established in oneself in this relation with him or her. But he or she is in the same condition as you. So, there is nothing more important in life than the very Awareness of Being. This is Real. Because this is the Awareness of Life, this is the end of this fiction, of this imagination, of this structure, which is the structure of the "I", of the ego, of the person.

So, we are not forcing this, it is not a forcing of statement to say that there is nothing in life more important than the adventure. It is not rock climbing, it is not mountaineering, it is nothing like that. The Real adventure is the Awakening of Truth, it is the Awakening of Wisdom, it is the Awakening of this Divine Intelligence to deal with life as it happens and not as thought says it is happening. You are someone very intelligent, you have already been awarded, you are seen there in some circles of well-understood, intelligent people, specialized in some areas. You are seen there as someone of prominence. Okay, that is commendable, it is beautiful, it is enviable.

That is how people look at one another, based on models, of reference; this raises in them envy, which we think is very natural. This model of being someone comparing oneself, but leaving that aside - because that is completely stupid. But these are our rules of coexistence in society, in the world, in this model. We admire the most admirable, we envy those who are enviable, we want prestige, applause, recognition. Perhaps a beautiful car like that one, or a beautiful house like that one, or a handsome boyfriend like that one. So, we appreciate this very much. This is the model that we have in life to be someone. But this person who is seen like this, there, in that context, because she does not know herself, because she does not comprehend herself, when she arrives home, in the closest relation she has, with the people she says she loves or feels she loves or that she loves them - at least that is how she believes -, she does not know how to be happy there, because she does not know herself.

So, it does not matter if you studied a lot, if you achieved a lot, if you are very intelligent; but if you do not know the truth about yourself, nothing replaces this Silence, this Peace, this Freedom, this Real Intelligence to deal with the husband, with the children, with the family, with the world around you. You are very intelligent, but you are zero in Intelligence. Your intelligence is specialized; that is why you are awarded. But you, girl, know nothing of yourself. It is the search for happiness, where? In external realizations. So it has been our life, the life of the person.

Therefore, learning about oneself, learning how the mind works, this is the most important thing. Never again depending on medicines to control these internal states, no longer depending on consulting someone to help you understand your anger, your fear, your despair, this affliction. The freedom of looking at life without the past, of dealing with him or her without the illusion of what he represents to you, once you are free from the image you sustain about who you are, and do not depend now on his or her image. You do not want anyone to adjust anymore, nor do you need to adjust to you anymore. Not only that: you want nothing, expect nothing, seek nothing, look for nothing - in people. There is no person for you; only him or her, human beings. This occurs when you discover the truth about you, which requires the comprehension of the truth about thought.

What is thought? We return to the beginning of the talk. What is this learning about thought? Look at your head. Do you not think, or is thinking in you the thinker occupying himself with his thoughts? Are your thoughts the repetition, the continuity of a restless, chatterbox, repetitive, mechanical - I would say stupid - model of chattering, of thought processing within you?

These days, someone wrote in one of the comments - it is there, one of the last comments on the channel: "Why am I here ruminating? I stay ruminating all day." The person wrote exactly this: "I have the addiction of ruminating." Do you know what ruminating is? Do you know this expression, this verb? Ruminating is what cows do. Ruminating is this, it is what cows do. We are doing what cows do. When the cow eats during the day, that is ruminating. Animals do this. They eat the grass; you go to sleep; if you get up at dawn, you hear the cow ruminating. She is sleeping, but she is not sleeping. She is receiving back the bolus in her mouth, chewing again and swallowing. This is called ruminating, for your information. Ruminating is this: it is to keep bringing back what was swallowed and chewing and swallowing again. It is this, ruminating is this. Cows do this. And this young man wrote and said: "I stay ruminating thoughts." What he wants to communicate to me is this: it is that I do not know what to do with this that I am swallowing, which every time comes back.

See, that is how the mind works. That is why it is useless for you to achieve what you wish to achieve without first comprehending who you are. Because you are going to be just someone, like a good cow, ruminating stories, memories of the past, living in the past, living off the past, off what was already swallowed. Do you comprehend now the importance of learning about this? Of learning how your mind works, so as to no longer live in the past, off the past, so as to no longer live off thought? You do not deal with the husband, with the wife, with the family, with life as it happens when the past is present. Who is dealing with the present moment from the past is not the Reality of this Being. It is only this "me", this "I", this "you", who, like that "good beautiful cow", is ruminating the past. Psychologically, we need to get rid of thought. That is what we are saying here. Get rid of thought, get rid of the past, get rid of this movement of ruminating.

So, the person who wrote is here on the channel; later you can read it. He said: "I have the addiction of ruminating, I spend the entire day ruminating." Because he heard one of the talks and said: "Wow, what is this that he is talking about? I stay here ruminating exactly what you are saying, I stay ruminating." He used this term; suddenly, it is someone who deals with a farm, with cattle. So, "I stay here ruminating." I found the verb interesting. "I stay here ruminating." So, in the mind, that is how we function. Because we do not comprehend what thought is.

What is thought? Thought in you is the experience that is coming back. The experience that is coming back is thought. Every memory that you have - listen to this -, every memory that you have is "something coming back from the stomach." It is something coming back again. It is something repeating itself. Do you remember on that day that someone said that to you? Of course you remember, because it is coming back, and it is only coming back because "it is coming from the stomach again." And you are there ruminating: "Why did she talk like this with me? I never did anything to her. She pays me, but she does I don't know what..." That is how, psychologically, the mind works in all of us.

Why is someone's problem disturbing you? Because you bought the problem. You swallowed it; it is coming back. Did you perceive? If you had not swallowed it, would it be coming back? If it were not this background of memory, if it were not this background of memory, if it had completed itself at the moment you listened, would it be coming back? Why is it coming back? Because you listened. You listened and particularized it for yourself. You became an accomplice to a psychological condition that has nothing to do with you. No, now it has everything to do with you. In fact, the person already told you because she knows that you are great, great for complicity, of this quality of "happiness" that she communicates when she tells you problems.

So, what is thought in us? Thought is a response of memory, like a reaction comes back and stays there knocking on your head, saying: "Do something, solve this." So, what is thought? Thought is this. Now, what is the thinker? The thinker is this one for whom thought comes back. Let us see if we comprehend well. What is thought? Thought is this memory, okay? But for whom is this memory coming back? For the thinker. When memory arrives, it finds you, who are the thinker, to stay like this: "Hum... what do I do? What can I do? But I cannot do anything." It is the thinker. Do you comprehend? So, we have thought and we have the thinker. We think they are two separate and distinct things; they are not. When thought arises, it already brings the thinker, because who kept this experience, and it did not complete itself, was exactly the thinker.

So, thought in you is the presence of the thinker. If there were no such thinker to occupy himself with thought, thought would not be coming back. If there were no such registration, it would not be coming back. And we do not know how to deal with this. When you are worried, when you are sad, when you are angry, when you are afraid, realize: it is only the presence of thought that found someone, who is the thinker. So, what is the thinker? The thinker is this one who occupies himself. And what is thought? It is memory.

What would internal life in you be if you did not have the weight of this psychological occupation, of this thinker occupying himself with little stories of other people's lives or with this little story of one's own dissatisfied, disoriented, disturbed life in this relation with the husband, with the child, with the boss? What would your life be free from thought, without the past? You know that the moments of peace that you have are moments without thought. Is it not like this? Why is peace present when thought is not? Because the thinker is not. The person is not. We do not have the presence of thoughts without the presence of someone occupying himself with them. Listen carefully to this.

Here, we have a key to liberate ourselves from thought, which either places us in the past or in the future - and that is problem all the time. In the future of desires, of what I need to achieve and so on - which is desire, which is affliction -, or in the past: "What do I do to solve that, that, that?" So, we live in the field of the mind, in the field of ideas. This is the model of the mind programmed to be like this; this is our conditioned mind. So, studying thought is to become aware of the thinker involving himself with it.

Perhaps you say: "And what do I do with thought?" This idea of doing something belongs to the thinker. That is why it has not worked out. You do not get rid of thoughts wanting to get rid of them. Because who is it that wants to get rid? The one who is occupying himself with thought. What do we need? We need to discover what, in fact, we need. We need to discover how the mind works, how thought works, for a life free from thoughts, for a life free from someone thinking. Is this possible? Yes. Yes. It is just that nobody ever told us this. Because everyone lives as a person thinking all the time, psychologically occupied with the past or with the future. They do not recognize the beauty of the moment, the beauty of this instant.

The encounter with this moment is an encounter with Intelligence to deal with him or her, to deal with oneself, to deal with thoughts, with feelings, with emotions, without placing a present identity there, which is the thinker, which is the one who experienced, the one who sees himself responsible. All of this is part of the illusion of the person, of this "I". In this learning about oneself, the end to all of this occurs.

So, yes, this is Real. The presence of Intelligence is the Freedom to Be One with Life, one with the present moment, without this model of thought that comes back. "Ah, but what about functional thought?" That is none of your business. That is a matter of technical memory in your brain. Free from this pattern of egoic thought, which is the thought that I call psychological thought, which is psychological memory, at the base of all the problems of your life, functional thought continues.

If you know how to speak a language, you continue knowing, free from psychological memory, because that is not psychological memory; it is technical memory. If you know how to fix something, you will continue knowing. If you know how to cook, you will continue. If you won an award there in the academy, if you won an award in the university, if you have a specialty, how wonderful! That is beautiful, it is wonderful. That will continue. But, for sure, you will no longer suffer with thought in the relation with the world around you. Because the thought that makes you suffer is the thought of being someone, of the person, which is the past, which has problems, which has to solve problems, which has things to take care of, things to protect. We do not know how to deal with life as it happens.

If you are a mother or a father, the children, what is the problem? Attend, take care, but do only what is real, not what is imaginary in this relation. If you come to me and ask: "What do I do in this marriage?" Be only the husband or the wife. Without the idea of being husband or wife, everything becomes light. With the idea of being husband or wife, the "I" enters, the ego enters. Violence arises, fear arises, emotional dependence arises, affective neediness arises; every type of confusion arises when the image you have about who you are, about how you deserve to be treated, or how you should treat the other, is present. See how simple it is: it is just getting rid of the ego. "What are you saying? Is it simple?" No, let me correct: perhaps it is not simple, but this is a matter of yours. You are in life to solve this. So, solve this. Live a life free from the ego.

So, there is no problem in being there as the husband, or the wife, or as the child, or having children, or taking care of business, or taking care of whatever you have to take care of. If there is illusion of someone, this requires a work in oneself, which nobody will do in your place. To become aware of this model of thought that does not complete itself and that positions you as someone to occupy yourself with matters that are not yours, like, for example, taking care of his or her future. His or her future is not in your hands. But when the mother thinks she has the future of her children in her hand, she places herself as mistress of the universe, as God Himself. How we love this: being a person all the time, in the relation with people all the time.

So, the idea of being someone - can we let go of this for contact with life, as life happens, without someone present? In this intelligent relation with the moment, without the past? Without this model which is the model of thought? You do not need thought that does not complete itself. The only thought you need is functional, practical thought; this one is present. When you are seated, you are seated in a posture of memory of this body. This has nothing to do with the presence of someone seated; it is only the body.

Thus, dealing with thoughts is something simple when the thinker is not. But when the thinker is, when the experiencer is, when the "I" is, when the ego is, dealing with thoughts is complicated. You will be dealing with the thought of the past, with something that did not complete itself and that is coming back and placing you in this context of illusion of someone present in time, someone who lived that or someone who will have to live that other thing.

I know that all of this sounds very strange, because our idea - because it is all that we know of life - is that life is going to happen; and life has already happened. And here we are saying that life is what happens; it is only what happens. Outside of what happens, thought in you creates the idea of someone, imagining what was or what will be. And, in this that was or what will be, there is this image that we build about who we are, within our relations with the other, with ourselves, and with life.

A person in a frame of anxiety is only the image she established about who she is, in the context of what she needs, of what she deserves, of what she does not deserve. It is the self-image, it is the image of the "I", it is the image of the ego. But what goes for anxiety goes for all frames of disorder, of mental pathology, of issues of the mind. So, there is no mental health, there is no health in the mind, when thought is not comprehended and finished, and finished when the psychological model of being someone does not end.

So, what is the Awakening of this Intelligence? What is the Awakening of this Awareness? What is the Awakening of this vision of Truth? Here, Awareness is not the awareness of the person. I refer to timeless Awareness. What is Awakening? It is not that awakening that pulled you out of bed this morning. I am talking about the Awakening of Truth about you, which includes the discarding of the illusion about who you are, for the comprehension of something beyond this, which is there, beyond the known, beyond the known. All right?

Thus, the great adventure, the great adventure, our great climb, the summit of the highest mountain, that great jump, the descent to these unreachable, unattainable depths, is Something present here, when Life is here, in this Silence, when the mind quiets down, this new Space opens up, this Reality reveals itself and, in it, is the Awareness of Supreme Intelligence, the Intelligence of God. In it, Truth is present, in it, Wisdom is present, in it, That which has no name is present.
