Window to the Heart

Oh Heart,
Sit with someone who knows the Heart.
Go under the tree which has fresh blossoms.
Rumi (13th Century poet who sat with Shams)
WHO YOU ARE

Who you ARE is the very ONE that is looking through your eyes. BE this ONE and BE free - it is as simple as this. YOU are the ONE that all things everwhere arise in or from. IT is what is looking through your eyes. IT is not a person - in fact, IT is very impersonal. IT is sheer "ISness isING." IT is immense - vastness itself. IT is solid like a rock. IT is absolute in ITs nothingness - even while containing all. IT is blackness ITself - giving space for light to be. IT is absolute in ITs freedom. Who you ARE is full of absolutes. IT is TOTAL. Timeless and spaceless. And yet IT IS. All "arisings" pulsate - no matter how "subtle" the arising. Just as all "arisings" are born and then die, they pulsate. There is a "gap" between each pulsation. YOU are this "gap" that is between every heartbeat, between every inbreath and outbreath. YOU are THAT which gives rise to consciousness. IT is looking through the eyes of the mindbody that you find yourself driving around in. While you perpetuate your belief in being something that was never true of you, you are not going to realise just who you ARE. To realise who you ARE you have to BE who you ARE. To BE who you ARE you have to let go of who you think you are. This you can do because you already ARE. Who you ARE is peering out through your eyes right now. IT is the "motion of seeing" happening through your eyes. - Elysha

The moment you realise just what IT IS that you already ARE you will be immediately at peace. Continue being this ONE that is who you ARE for a few moments together and you will drop like a stone into "the well of being," completely at rest and at peace with ALL that is. The moment you know who you ARE you will be afraid of nothing, totally at peace with all "arisings." To be free in the world you must die to the world, die to who you think you are. The causeless happiness of being absolutely free AS the ONE - who you ARE - is beyond description. - Elysha

Who you ARE is this "motion of seeing" that is flowing through your eyes right now. You bring your conscious attention to this "aliveness," this "seeing," and come to rest as this ONE. There is absolutely nothing more that you can do. You learn to return your conscious attention to this "motion of seeING" that is flowing through your eyes and to BE at rest AS this "aliveness." IT is who you ARE. The only reason you can BE this "motion of seeing" is because IT is YOU. You cannot BE what you are not. You cannot BE your mind - it is "your" mind. "Me" and "mine" are not YOU. Anything that you can perceive is not YOU. Anything that is "yours" is not YOU - who you ARE. You cannot "attain" who you ARE - you can only BE who you ARE. -Elysha
