If you are lucky you’ll begin to realize you are always living in That. Always, not sometimes. You’ll get rid of this idea of always and sometimes and then what’s left over is always. Always does not mean sometimes extended in time; lots of sometimes all adding together, so you have enough sometimes that then you say “it’s all the time”, no. That means no always, no sometime – always. So you have to learn this freakish kind of logic. That way both sides of your brain will get it. I remember I took a hike a few weeks ago down at Phoenix Lake and we went around. You know it’s just so unbelievable. I don’t know who to tell these things to. There was just That the whole time. I mean there was nothing. It was like I didn’t even touch the ground the whole time. What is that? But it’s so intimate and so natural that I won’t even think of making any notation further beyond that noticing. That’s it, I could care less if it ever came again like that. So I’m already set to leave it alone. Even if everything, every treasure of every realization was dumped at my feet, I’d get up and walk away. Because whatever ends up being shown to you is not it in the end. It’s only a perception. But if it’s ongoing you’ll have a perception. You’ll know it’s the living reality and then you enjoy it. You just enjoy it. You realize that you are always That for ever and ever, for all time, eternity. But eternity doesn’t mean indefinitely into the future. We have to create a new freakish vocabulary where you understand what eternity means. This is all about redefining knowledge, reinventing concepts too. It’s not just about getting some abstract transcendental experience. It’s about reconstructing the pathways of knowledge and to do that you have to go in with your hands, your bear naked hands and rewire things in the way that only you can do. I’ll help you but you have to actually do it. You have to be the doer of your own realization. Believe me, I’ll do like 98%. There might be only a couple of things you need to do in the end. There’s so much grace. So much happens through grace. Grace is so important.

For one who knows the Self, Being has presenced. It has come into presencing or self-presencing and engages in self-revelation. Not revelation to another. Not to the experience of a someone but from within its own nature It begins to shine. That ...

I rely on the native power within Being, and not any kind of yoga that I’ve mastered, any kind of spiritual approach, any kind of teaching. It’s not because I don’t value approaches or I look down upon them. They’re just not appropriate for what ...
David: The most important thing is that you experience something, that something in you begins to enlarge and you begin to sense your own global self, not your little limited body-mind that does things around the house ; it shops vegetables and ...
Participant: David, what I noticed when I very first met you a number of years ago, is that I saw you as a certain person or a certain being, and then I would go away and I’d come back and you’d be totally different. And then gradually I saw ...
You’re all equal to me. Everyone’s equal. It’s just your approach. Whatever your approach is.... I don’t favor anyone, but I’m just as much on you completely, individually, as I am on her. I’m "on you." Even if I’m looking here a lot and I don’t ...
Moderator: A viewer in Australia comments, "I thought I knew what the body-mind is; now I realize it's as much of an unknown as the Absolute." David: Correct. It is the Absolute. It is the Absolute. It can be nothing else. All the understandings ...
Participant: I have this experience over last few days, every time I feel like I’m going deeper and deeper, there is a resistance that rises and blocks it. It deviates completely. So it just doesn’t allow me to experience. David: Find out what ...
That knot of separation is a core of fear. It’s a kind of revulsion toward everything. A sense of not being at peace, of not feeling relaxed beyond your knowing process, relaxed beyond action. Right? Weird things start to happen when you get ...
You’ll find that the enlightened form does become beautiful, not through exclusory separation though, not through some kind of agenda that it thinks it’s great. It’s at this point when you begin to detect that the energy of the universe is in ...
