the way of non-differentiation

rick spitzer

 

When the level of concentration

on the void is gradually attained, one will feel

that he is free from delusion. Although he keeps himself

pure and rejects the impure, his mind is not yet

completely pure —  it is as a sword that

has cut through mud and

remains uncleaned.

 

…When one reaches jen-wei, or

the level of absolute freedom, he is truly free.

His mind and body are non-attached to anything.

There is absolutely no gain and no loss. This mystery

is the way of non-differentiation.  If one tried

to say even one word about it, he

would miss the point.

knowing what is enough is freedom

Which

is more precious,

fame or health? Which is more

valuable, health or wealth?

Which is more harmful,

winning or

losing?

 

The more

excessive your love,

the greater your suffering.

The longer you hoard,

the heavier your

losses.

 

Knowing

what is enough is freedom.

Knowing when to stop is safety.

Practice these, and

you’ll endure.

Buddhism

advises you not to implant

feelings that you don’t really have or avoid

feelings that you do have. If you are miserable you

are miserable; that is the reality, that is what is happening,

so confront that. Look it square in the eye without flinching.

When you are having a bad time, examine that experience,

observe it mindfully, study the phenomenon and learn

its mechanics. The way out of a trap is to study the

trap itself, learn how it is built. You do this by

taking the thing apart piece by piece.

The trap can’t trap you if it has

been taken to pieces.

The result is

freedom.

decide now to be free

Perry Bible Fellowship

 

You

have to decide

right now to be free

once and for all. Everyone who

has found freedom in this lifetime has

had to make this decision. Now is the time

to have a direct introduction to this moment.

This moment is free of time, of mind, of any notions.

When one abides as the Self, some divine power

takes charge of one’s life. All actions then take

place spontaneously, and are performed

very efficiently, without any

mental effort or

activity.

the perfect means of achieving freedom

just breathe

 

Without thought, 

without mind, without self, 

there is only freedom. The direct, 

reliable, and perfect means of 

achieving this is to become 

wholly absorbed in 

the breath.
