Striving for this realization will never bring it; striving creates more fragmentation, and you can never catch up.
When you truly see the oneness in all things, you realize the infinite expanse of your own awareness. This is not an intellectual recognition. It is a spiritual realization that comes in a very different way. It comes by allowing. If you focus your eyes on the night sky to see the stars, they fade into the darkness. If you let the light of the stars fill your eyes, you will see the light. |
Can you teach me how to "not analyze" the ego death/awakening(I am buddhist but just recently hard core) experience because that is my problem I think, the experience comes at me and I try to analyze it...my brain tries to make sense of it, not only that my heart races and every cell on my body feels afire and it scares me badly, once I pull myself out of the experience I am cold, shaking and afraid of bodily death(damn you ego!)
