When we are talking about enlightenment we are talking about a fundamental shift within attention. It’s a form of non-attention within attention that is causing all the problems with regards to whether you know consciousness or not. The easiest way to snap out of that problem is to first of all feel the wave of consciousness strike you. Enjoy the wave of Bliss that happens in and around the Self, the Absolute Being. In that first wave the possibility for flooding enters, that is being flooded or overcome with that same Bliss.
When that saturation of deep flooding occurs there’s then a development within attention that restructures the point of view of the perceiver, whereby the perceiver is not resting any longer in a state of duality. The foundation of perception becomes restructured. That’s what awakening is. That’s what happens in awakening so that you come to see from a different place, not see a different thing but see from a different place. So, just the mere abiding in Bliss will itself structure that permanent and ongoing realization of the Self.
You’ll be shocked to see what it is. It can be quite dramatic to in the initial stages live in that newfound perspective, which is not a perspective it’s the truth. That’s what makes it so shocking is that it’s not the development out of some other sequence of understanding. It is a penetration right into the root of understanding itself. It’s very powerful, and because it’s so powerful you can’t really miss it. It’s not an event that can possibly be missed.

David: The sun loves you. The sun loves you. The moon adores you, only as long as you’re here to experience it. This is not a rejection scheme. I’m not suggesting that you’re unloved in the Universe, precisely the opposite. You can’t live ...
Namaste. Once you find a living connection with the Divine Consciousness or the Pristine Nothingness that exists within, then your spiritual path will extend along the following lines. First one will enjoy absorption or various forms of ...
Even as we’re talking about fear, love is happening. Love is actually birthing itself into the room. As your sense of independent and separated consciousness, as that melts in the presence of the Shakti you begin to feel more diffuse, and that ...
David: So, if you want to see what it’s all about you transcend hesitancy and doubt and fear. You can’t say positively what that is that you will see. It’s simply what is always been there minus the overlay of doubt and fear and self-worry, ...
It’s just the flow of wisdom as it is emerging out of your own Self, and it has devastating impact. The way it distinguishes itself from ordinary knowledge is that it carries what I would call the power to cause you to interface back onto your ...
You should begin to start feeling good all over as the Shakti, the energy within the Absolute begins to impinge on your body-mind. The Absolute is not happy just to stay in the void. It wants to start spraying up in devotional waves so you ...
There are two kinds of knowing, inner knowing and outer knowing. This may sound elementary, but it’s actually very profound. Outer knowing is when there is a felt distance between the knower and that which is known, you could say a spacial ...
