Which Direction Are You Orientated Toward?

2/21/2022

 
Being curious and acting on our curiosity is crucial 
for any seeker to discover what they are looking for.  
 
We can never discover our true nature by believing what others say – even a trusted teacher. Each one of us has to do our own investigation – there is really no way to get around this.
 
Seekers don’t believe – they discover.  
 
Discovering our true nature often begins with a sense of that true nature. Stillness, peace, joy, love, wholeness, freedom are all words that try and describe this sense.
 
The briefest of glimpses of this sense, when we trust it, can be powerful enough to orientate us in its direction.
 
The sense of our true nature, which is free of all suffering, orientates us in the direction of freedom.  Gradually, we come to distinguish between control and freedom, and the more we choose freedom the greater the orientation becomes in that direction.
 
We come to see in our own experience that whenever we try to control things  (our thoughts, feelings, experiences, others) we suffer. 
 
And when we allow everything its freedom – 
we don’t attach or identify with anything – 
we don't suffer at all. 
 
Freedom allows us to sense what is true.

an article I wrote which expands
on what is shared here:   
Do You Trust Others Over Yourself?


    It is all very simple. Instead of seeing things imagined, learn to see them as they are. When you can see everything as it is, you will also see yourself as you are. It is like cleansing a mirror. The same mirror that shows you the world as it is, will also show you your own face."
      Sri Nisargadatta     Maharaj

      Einstein said,
    "No problem can be solved 
      from the same
       level of consciousness
           that created it."
      
     

     
    To see new solutions
       we must see differently.
