Terror Terror everywhere...!! Error Error everywhere...?? No......not at all....... Although....strange witnessing happening......Now & Here... Tremendous compassion arising...for the victims instruments...and also for the one responsible..for it.... There is a grief ......and also the compassion..for the either instruments.... No hatred....atall......the scenes are unfolding....... Who is to be hated........in a Dream.......which looks profoundly real..!!! The Dream...in which "I" am playing all the roles.....of the killed ...and ...also the killer....... What is THAT .....which does not want to be distroyed.....be it, the Killed or the Killer.............. The recognition.......of THAT........is HERE & NOW...... The time to recognise the "Timeless"..that is what you and me all are....... lots of love

and yet very very
persistant....one...which got caught..... :-)
Ha ha Ha Ha Ha...........
How stupid...& funny

i(me) always 'thought'
that the beloved osho....Nisargadatta.....were
talking to "me"...
teaching "me"..........whereas that "me"..... itself is....& was always...just a "Thought"..... ;-)

The shadow dissolved......
in its....
own Substance..........

'f'A'n'WARENESS

'f'A'n'WARENESS
Its amazing
to recognise
that
the Background of the Ceiling Fan
ever remains
unaffected...unchanged...
no matter....
it throws cool or hot air
how fast or slow...
..with changing RPm's ...it rotates....&
the span of time.. it rotates.......................................
And there are TALKS.....
on increasing the speed...
trying different methods....
changing the brands....
verying positions.....
Ha ha ha ha......;-)
Its Amazing to SEE.....
that
The Background
is
neither Createdddddddd
becuase of the presence of the Fan....
nor
Dependentttttt on presence of the Fan..... ;-)

Birth.........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today morning a thorn found on my palm... a pain began.... A thorn pricked .. & the first time Hand knew that it existed... Where was the pain..few moments earlier... not only pain was absent... But even the pleasure of having hand was absent...
Birth...Birth....Birth....this is IT I did not even know that I existed..... and suddenly the thorn of "knowingness" bit.... and started the game of pain & pleasures.... the game of "me' and "mine"...... There was neither pain no pleasure, prior to biting of this thorn of "knowingness".... That's EXACTLY the Birth.....happening of "Birth".... But who is born really......not ME....Certainly not "I". The knowingness has surely Appeared..... from somewhere....from somew"here"........

DASSARA FESTIVAL

What's the meaning of 'Dassara', a traditional hindu festival! Is it just the Victory of Rama over Ravana (Victory of Good against Evil) as told in the childhood?

Dassara festival is a Celebration of RECOGNIZING What I am NOT, that is...Ten heads of Ravana...
(as described in mythology)!

Seeing directly, what I am certainly Not, these ten things. The burden of ten sticks this apparent 'me' carries, until it recognizes itself!

What I am certainly not? First Body (1), second Prana/Breath (2) hence not mind (3) which is extension of breath hence not even thoughts. I am neither identified consciousness(4) as it is identified & recognized from the age of 2 and will disappear on dropping of the body, so certainly temporal. When I am not this consciousness also, how can I be three states by which this consiousness operates, like knowingness (5), waking state(6) & sleeping state (7)! At the same time when I am not this consiousness also, how can I be three gunas (attributes) by which this consciousness  functions, such as satva-guna (8), rajas-guna (9) and tamas-guna (10)!

What remains after the negation of 
ten identities, ten heads of Ravana is THAT
Indescribable, which does not fall in "subject-object type" knowing. No one can know it!

Recognition of IT just Happens.
Celebration remains without A Celebrator;-)!

Happy Dassara :-)

Witnessing.......!!!!??? for whom..???

Qtn: Is it possible for, either a common man or a realised soul to be in "witnessing mode" every moment !?
Ans: A Direct SEEING.... may happen....with inward questioning like.... 1] why witnessing ??? 2] "who" has need to witness ? 3] what is the identity that does "witnessing" ? 4] Is "witnessor" really exists ?

If not....DIRECT SEEING....
the common man as u said [ say sadhaka ] start witnessing [ with a tool "I Am" or "beingness" which is the only capital available from age of 2 yrs ] & that is they do/teach in vipassana Meditation....Witnessing of breath, feelings, thoughts etc...everything that is Not "YOU"....
For years of such practise Happen & yet search does not end because belief of being the searcher "Remains'.... In this stage the strong notion persists that the "Witnessor" is separate from the "Witnessing", hence the so called sadhana [ spiritual practise ] continues..[ Witnessor is nothing but "knowingness without words"..which itself is temporal, because it started after 2 yrs of so called birth...& U see, we never had Any need of witnessing prior to Birth, Do u remember ??? I do not remember ...] And yet this kind of "Witnessing" Happens.. to begin with...till the belief in presence of the "Witnessor" as separate entity, which De-focuses so called sadhakas attention from "me as 'only the body' notion"....
When...DIRECT SEEING Happens..if it happens...the apparent "witnessor" gets dissolved/merged in "witnessing" [Beware, NO causality in CORE but surely Apperance of Causality as long as "Appearance is only REALITY" for the particular so called sadhaka ] & I guess.....
Realised is the ONE [ rather NONE ...forget the Labels ] who has recognised the Trinity of Witnessor, Witnessing object & Witnessing as ONE.....3 in 1 :-) Not intelectually, but Existentially...:-) that is my understanding ...i guess...i do not know...Anything.....
The so called "realised" also may be witnessing things while interacting with all apparent others....on consiousness level [ level of knowingness ] but otherwise "WHAT IS" prevails in Non-Witnessing/ Non-Knowing stateless state.......................... i guess...so [ a piece of conceptual garbage ]...who cares...it is as it is at this moment....HERE... Every word uttered is Concept [ in a way wordy garbage ] hence can be negated also :-) No way to express without any Labels...as long as one knows that his/her name is not HIm or HER...
tks n regards Morning Cheeers ******

Just a STORY without a story-teller

Any story can be told
in Hundreds of ways..... It's simply the point of perception (with a strong notion of presence of the "Perceiver" separate from the "Perceived").
The one
who
recognizes
story as a STORY.....
does not get bothered
by any type of its expression (in words)
and
yet genetic liking & disliking continues.....as Swa-Bhav (inherent nature of body mind apparatus)
But
No'thing' to Prove..
No'one' to Prove.......
Morning cheers.....Enjoy

Why do you want to "PROVE"..!!

Whenever
you see
your'self'
wanting
to Prove
something;
know for sure
that
The Thing
is not Clear
inside yet.......!
Any Concept
can be
proved as wel disproved.....!
The intuitive clarity
never needs
any Approval
but
simply Shared
as a passing thought
and
certainly not by
'personal' thinking.... !

Cheerful Thanks :-)
