Not dumb. Just unaware.

Hold the thought "who am I" before bed, upon awakening. Try this for a while, days, weeks see what you see feel what you feel. Experience it for yourself.

WEI WU WEI

When you give a shilling to a beggar
- do you realise that you are giving it to yourself?

When you help a lame dog over a stile
- do you realise that you yourself are being helped?

When you kick a man when he is down
- do you realise that you are kicking yourself?

Give him another kick - if you deserve it!


Reality alone exists - and that we are. All the rest is only a dream, a dream of the One Mind, which is our mind without the 'our'. Is it so hard to accept? Is it so difficult to assimilate and to live?


We have only to eliminate the ego-notion by succeeding in the difficult task of understanding that it does not exist except as a notion.


Why are you unhappy?
Because 99.9 per cent
Of everything you think,
And of everything you do,
Is for yourself -
And there isn't one.
