Moderator: From Sebastopol a comment, “Wow, as you where talking about Sahaja-samadhi everything got so bright.”
David: That’s the light of transmission. That’s a clear experience, a clear witnessing to the power of radiated consciousness which can take on the form of even an apparent light, a divine light we can say, only because it’s not a light that’s produced from some relative source. The word divine light just means it’s a non-relative form of light, a light that is Self generated, generated out of the Self. The Self meaning the Absolute, pure bliss of the Absolute. That light is the light of your own self. You may experience it through this transmission that is offered here, but it’s not limited in a direct causal way to something that might be called “me”. This is something that is radiated fully in itself, in all directions to itself. You, as the recipient, are that self also. You are the self. The self is what is beholding that light, not the limited individuality, although it can be noted and commented on by the mind, as this person just shared.
And you know awakening is never universal. Awakening is always individualized. There is this myth that every awakened being will have the same world views, will perform action in the same way, will have the same political views, etc., as though ...
I would like to even call into question, as radical as this might sound, the notion that you can even be certain that you are realized. Which is not to say that your non-certainty becomes the basis for suspecting that you are realized. You can’t ...
David: In a sense my teaching is always flawed. Why do I keep teaching? Why do I keep coming out? Because I never can hit the target completely. Because we are all the same arrow and until there is this universalized perception among all of us, ...
David: Yeah. Participant: David, I have a question. David: Oh good, I'm so happy. Participant: Um, I have read about "I Am That" from Vedas and J. Krishamurti and UG and Nisargadatta Maharaj. David: No not UG, UG would never say that. ...
You know, you can't think your way into the Divine. You can't get there through strategy. Strategy is inherently dishonest. You can't make a deal with the Divine to become it. The whole idea is: all deals are off. All deals are off and what you ...
David: I'd like to see you have something. I'd like to see something really go off in you whereby, you know, you are really taken by your own divine self, that has no dilemma in it and that is very clearly understood and realized, in just a ...
David: You may go through many amazing experiences in the meantime. You may go through repeated openings of a most magnificent kind - you know, the things you read about in the lives of saints and sages; oneness opening up and timelessness, ...
There are two kinds of devotion. One is like a monkey, monkey-devotion, where the little baby grabs the waist of the mother and holds on. And that monkey, that mama, will jump from tree to tree. Once in a while, though, there could be a slip and ...
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 ...
Participant: So the mind can partake of the Bliss of the Awakening and feel satisfaction from that, as long as it's not trying to co-opt the experience, we'll call it an experience. But if it does try to get involved with it, it's going to be ...
Ok, so now we are in a different phase of the teaching. I hope you're with me. We've passed over the place where lions and tigers could eat us. They're gone. We're home free now. Rattlesnakes and cobras, they're history now. Now we're in the ...
Is everybody comfortable? Pretty comfortable, bodily relaxed? No distraction, no strong thoughts, just nice clear relaxation? Your mind is not gripping you anymore. Where's your mind? Where's that knot that haunts you all day? That thing that ...
