Who we are varies according to our awareness. When you are more aware, you are someone else than when you are less aware.
Everything is perception. A hallucination is a perception of a certain reality. It is a perception of a certain state of mind.
You are an endless conglomeration of awareness. You're not one singular self. You're a corporation.
Inside you is eternity. A human being is not so simple. We're told that we're Ted or Sally or Willie or whatever and that we grow up and have experiences. That has nothing to do with what life is. You are eternity.
You think you are somebody and that is where the problem begins. You're really not somebody, you're everybody. You objectify yourself into thinking that you are a particular state of being.
We live inside our mind. That's all there is. Everything that you experience is not external, it's internal. All your experiences are predicated upon your awareness field.
We are cognizant of time, the sense that there is mutability. Time is change. It's the separation of eternity from itself. When eternity is separated from itself, we see it appear in different forms. Time is not a movement in space. Space is a movement in time.
You create time by joining events together. But they don't join together; there's no separativity.
We cut up time and space and mind and place and being and non-being. We create a world of ideas. This is duality, pairs of apparent opposites.
We are taught not to perceive but to avoid direct perceptions of reality and to substitute instead this kind of one-dimensional view of life.
Reality does appear to exist, there does appear to be birth, youth, people appear to have children. But all of it's a dream. These are isolated moments that are only connected by perception. There is no separation.
Once we have conceived of time and space, once we have accepted their existence, then that implies that there is a structural order to bonding realities.
Perception is the ability to be conscious of self and that which is other than self. Without thinking about it, a distinction is made between who we are and what we perceive.
Perception defines everything.
If you stay in the attention you are in, then you can predict everything that will happen to you for the rest of your life.
Your choices are really very limited. They are limited by your level of awareness. If you can change your level of awareness radically, then you can change your destiny.
Anything that you might want to be is around somewhere. You can become it. You just have to get into the state of mind that allows that to occur.
The continuity of perception is an individualized being, when that continuity is lost, the being no longer exists as they have been.
Those who dissolve their body of perception completely are absorbed into what we would call nirvana.
Everything around us is shifting all the time. Energy is moving in all things. What gives energy a continuity, what creates a pattern, is you.
From infinite awareness, something comes forward, a sense of infinite awareness and finite awareness. That perception is the birth of a being.
The universe is a giant perceptual matrix. It perceives itself through its substance
You are a little band of awareness and your awareness moves from one state of mind to another.
You are a being of light composed of cells of light joined together in a matrix.
Each of is endlessly generating waves with our actions. If you could see the earth from a vibratory point of view, you would see something like radio waves billions of them, cascading constantly into very complex patterns all over the earth.
