I would like to share a half-hour meditation by Adyashanti that I feel is really good, I’ve been doing this one on a regular basis lately.

A re-post of an older post of mine that I ran into again and is a good reminder.

I would like to share an older but important post on the website of Fred Davis.
It explains what you can do to wake up and – more importantly- clear up.

Have a look and I hope it will be of benefit to you.

Be Well 🌺

I highly recommend to do this short, simple but effective meditation. I’ve added it to my shortlist of favourite meditations.

I found that one of the difficult things to get comfortable with is the contrast between the viewpoint of the Absolute and the viewpoint of the Relative.
All kinds of drama can be going on in Life but how does that relate to the also present viewpoint of the Absolute? When I have a big problem I could say ‘There’s no Dennis so to whom is this happening?’.
This is dismissive of life and it doesn’t feel right, even though I know that it’s the truth.
The key is to accept that both viewpoints are valuable in their own way and they co-exist , even when they feel conflicting. The mind doesn’t like these paradoxes but it’s still possible to get comfortable with it.

Fred Davis always says that things in life count, but ultimately they don’t matter.

Be well 🌺

In the private session I just had with Fred Davis I addressed with him a list of words that sometimes confuse me. I asked Fred to validate this list because I can get confused during Satsang about their exact meaning.
The words within each list don’t exactly mean the same but they can be logically grouped together and are definitely NOT the same as the words in the other list – that’s what’s important here.

List 1: True Nature
the Absolute
Awakeness
No-thing
Void
Witnessing (as a process, so without an actual witness)
God (tricky one…)

List 2: the Dream
Relativity
Consciousness
Lifing
Universe
Arisings
Oneness
Tao
I Am
Manifestation

May you be well.
May you be happy.
May you know Truth.

This video is a recording of a free Satsang session Fred Davis held recently. In the first ~30 minutes Fred has a dialog with a woman that is nothing short of an awakening session, I highly recommend listening to the exchange between Fred and Margaret.
