Sense of Touch

"The Kashmiri masters speak of the preeminence of the sense of touch. For them, a human being naturally recovers his unity when he is touched deeply -- that is, when contact is no longer a sexual strategy. When nothing is "wanted." This kind of contact is established within a sort of grace, because it gives back to anyone touched in this way a sense of his own spatiality. To touch another in this way necessitates living in a state of non-duality. To have been touched in this way restores to the body its sacred vibration and will sometimes render it intolerably sensitive to all the "programmed" contact of unaware partners. From that moment on, the body will insist on being approached with veneration and true presence". ~ Yoga Spandakarika

ON ETERNAL LIFE

Forgetting the Self is Death, remembering It is Life. You desire eternal life. Why? Because the present life (in relativity) is unbearable. Why is it so? Because it is not your real Nature. You are in truth pure Spirit; but you identify it with a body, which is a projection of the mind -- an objectified thought, and the mind in its turn has originated from the pure Spirit. Mere change of body is no good, because there is only a transfer of the ego to the new body. Moreover what is Life? It is Existence (as Consciousness) and that is Yourself. That is the true Life, and it is eternal (beyond time). Life in the body is conditioned life. But you are Life Unconditioned. You will recover your true nature as Unconditioned Life, if the idea 'I am the body' dies. ~ Sri Ramana Maharshi

TOUCH OF SPIRIT

There is some kiss we want with our whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling! At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face against mine. Breathe into me. Close the language- door and open the love window. The moon won't use the door, only the window. ~ Rumi

UNION OF BODY & SPIRIT

SEEKING for something, desiring for something, is the basic disease of the MIND. Not seeking, not desiring, is the basic health of your being. Working with the densest aspect of your being to the most subtle, Bodhi Body Yoga moves you from your mind, into your body. The integration and union of body consciousness and life-force energy will balance your nervous system and change your psycho/physical patterning at the root.

WITNESS OF ATTENTION

You Are the action-less and formless thought-free mere Witness of Attention itself and of every apparent "object" of attention and of any and every "state of experience" and of the entirety of whatever and all that arises. Without belief, without a prior conditioned "point of view". Prior conclusions make believers not scientists, when there are no conclusions your eyes are "clear". Whatever is the "problem" whether jealousy, anger, sexuality, greed, ego, you don't need to drop it. It will drop on its own. What you are "watching" will become transparent (outshined) and drop of it's own accord. Non-judge-mental (non-mental) observation, like watching a rose flower. Look "into" it and you will begin discovering the Love within you. ~ Osho

THERE IS ONLY LIGHT

There is only the One to be Realized. One Self --- prior to all Conditions. Awareness is Always there. Open the shutters of the mind and it will be flooded with light. The union of Body & Spirit is Transcendental. The fruit of the union is Bliss beyond anything the "experiential" human nervous system is capable of producing. Bliss with no cause -Bodhi Body Bliss ~ Your Natural State. A perfect abiding as Consciousness and it's own Love-bliss in the face of all arising conditions. There is no higher Realization.
