?The
way of the Tao
Is
not the eternal way
It
cannot be defined or explained
It
can only be experienced?
Anonymous
The
Tao, is the way Of Taoism ? it is the way of
harmony.
For
a Taoist, it is the purpose behind existence.
When
discussing the Great Beingness before the Creation
of rationality, this does not mean to say that there
is not awareness, or intelligence. There is awareness
of Being, yet it is not the kind of rationally-minded
thought that we have within our state of duality here
in the physical. Oneness-Being is not a state of blankness.
The intelligence of Beingness is aware, conscious,
intelligent, awake. Robert Wallace, PhD, a disciple
of Maharishi, within the Vedic knowledge, describes
this state of existence very nicely in his book The
Physiology of Consciousness.
?It
is also a field of pure wakefulness or
pure
consciousness ? consciousness fully
awake
within itself...?

What
would exist when you are not thinking, if you exist
because you think, is nothing. Pure absolute nothing.
There is a complete absence of the existence of
anything if all beings stopped thinking. This is not
possible. Remember, to not think is not synonymous
with not existing and nothing is not the same thing as
undefined. The void that we speak of within this realm
of the physical is not nothingness ? it is
undefined. It feels like nothing to our rational mind,
which only exists in parts.
Letting
go of all control is equivalent to letting go of all
judgmental thought, because judgment (seeing things
as Good and Bad) is the root of control. Beyond judgmental
thought is the Being and the Oneness that is our wildest
and most loved imaginings. The point of releasing
all control is the gateway that must be crossed to
get back into Collective Consciousness which is within
the ibeall world (The world where All I AM is Beingness).
It is the surrender and death of the ego-self.
As
we discussed in the last chapter, this judgmental
thought, thinking something is bad and resisting it,
is part of the process of suppression that eventually
leads to disease and disharmony within us.
In
order to Be the great I AM or great Oneness-Being, is
to be in a state where there is no mental perception
of this limited within a rational construct, for this
creates a doubling of reality.
Cut
out of chapter 5 ? The Game
Adam
and Eve and all their descendants used their will of
disobedience and created a world of illusion, so that
instead of existing within the direct experience of
Truth (Da?at), where there is no need to choose
because you already ARE, they chose for themselves to
experience what they believed to be true.
Are
the things that people have chosen to be true actually
the Truth? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. That is the
Game of Life. You have choice and since you do, you
must choose what you Love to be. Why would you choose
any other way?
We have a lot of forgiving ourselves for the choices
that we made that were outside of the Love, for it
was us who made them. It was not meant to be. The
understanding that ?it was meant to be? takes
away our responsibility of facing and letting go of
the ugly choices we have made.
Clipped
from Chapter 6
Imagine
what it is like to live believing that heaven is somewhere
else, when you are truly within heaven. This creates
the same kind of turmoil and splitting of reality
that trying to be what you already are creates. For
you, heaven becomes a place to imagine and pine for,
not something to be aware of in the place where you
are. It is like searching for your sunglasses that
you have forgotten right on your head. You will never
find them anywhere else. Of course, on your head is
the last place where you look, but theyre still
there. It is as if we are standing within a great
vaulted chamber, searching for that very chamber and
we cannot see the ceiling above nor the sides around
us to realize we are where we are seeking to be because
it is all enshrouded in darkness. So we feel lost
within the very place we wish to be
all there
is to do is light up the room and there is instantaneous
awareness of the Truth that is all around us and has
always been.
This
double reality caused by believing where you are is
not the place you want to be is the delusion of being
outside of the garden. It is similar to all the delusions
we believe in about heaven and hell, as if there is
a heaven and a hell. We can definitely experience
hell here on earth. But it is by our own hands that
we come to do that. Perhaps that is what makes it
the most hellish, because it is by our own will that
we come to create our experiences. We must come to
un-choose these choices by ourselves. This is why God
and the angels of Goodness will not come to bring
in the Messianic Age. WE must do it for it is us who
constantly keep ourselves shrouded in duality by our
forgetting.
No
matter how deeply one becomes entrenched within the
hell of their lives, the heaven that they
will come to experience will be proportionally as
heavenly as the hell they experienced, having struggled
within the negativity and released it by seeing it
not as a choice anymore. What it takes is shedding
the patterns of negativity and stepping out of the
time of the past.
