CONDITIONING

A birth of a new child,
only emptiness appearing as a body

Quick give it a name.
Quick train the name into it.
Quick cover up the emptiness with words, labels.
Quick, put ideas, thoughts, beliefs
Quick, educate it in the ways of the current trends
So that the emptiness gets covered up.

Emptiness cannot get covered up.
It only appeared to be born.
It was before the birth of the body.
It is NOW.
It will forever BE.
Nothing can cover up the emptiness
Since all is encompassed by it
Since all is included within it.

A baby is not born.
Emptiness has taken a form.
But it is emptiness All Along.

What I Am

I am not that one that I think I am.

What I think I am, I am not.

If I am what I think I am, then I am NOT when the thought disappears OR changes.

However, I am ever-present regardless of thoughts I think about what I am.

I am present PRIOR TO the thoughts.

I am PRESENCE, PRIOR TO ANY THOUGHTS OR SENSATIONS.

Thoughts and sensations take place in me.

I am NOT a THIS OR THAT.

I AM THE ONLY ONE IN WHICH ALL THIS AND THAT TAKE PLACE.

Don't stick to the words. Look to that which the words are pointing to. Notice, I did not say LOOK AT THAT, because you can't see it. All seeing takes place within it. It is what you are. You know you exist. This knowing is all.
