Uncluttered

Aging Unnaturally (An Essay)

It’s not that you slow down the aging process when you exist naturally.

It’s that you accelerate the aging process when you don’t.

It’s not about the food.

It’s not about the exercise.

It’s about the energetic state that precedes and carries each choice and each movement.

Is it in truth or compensation?

Is it an expression and an extension of the first or not?

You already know.

Living naturally is being in sync with who you are.

Living unnaturally is being in resistance to that.

Living naturally is being free of the weight of illusion.

Living unnaturally is being steeped in it.

Resistance is what accelerates the aging process.

And when you stop resisting…

life

yourself

this moment

the other

you stop that acceleration.

So it’s not a slowing down.

It’s being what you are meant to be.

Yourself.

And free of yourself.

And when you are both,

it’s easy to see how matter ages those around you.

Because matter is heavy.

And truth is light.

And no form of diet or exercise can compensate for a life lived in compensation.

Breakthroughs Aren't Enough (An Essay)

Just like you wouldn’t expect one meal to satiate you for a week,

or one shower to keep you clean for a month,

or one workout to keep you fit for life,

or one deep clean of your place to magically make it so that you never need to clean again,

you can’t expect the inner work to take care of itself once-and-for-all just because you had some sort of breakthrough.

It’s a progressive cleaning up.

And you can’t get to the maintenance part until you’ve dealt with all the accumulation.

So yes, it gets ‘easier’ as you chip away at all that you’re not,

but you will never reach a point where you’re done the work and are good-to-go for life.

The work is done for life.

Because there are always more ways and more opportunities to sharpen, to deepen, to expand, to refine.

No Offence But You're Insane (An Essay)

If you’re human, you’re mentally ill.

You don’t need a diagnosis to prove that.

Just look what goes on inside your mind.

If every bit of it was projected onto a screen for you and others to read 24/7,

you’d see that you’re insane.

Not truly.

But mentally.

Disordered.

Not coherent.

And…

coherence is still the baseline.

It’s the undercurrent of all things.

And the noise of the mind is just that.

Noise.

And…

the noise is not who you are.

It’s just what’s going on above the stillness.

And…

the noise itself is not a problem.

Identifying with the noise IS.

Believing the noise is who you are IS.

Being taken on that insane ride to crazytown whenever the noise takes over IS.

And of course, none of it is really a problem at all.

It’s just what IS.

For now.

And…

sanity IS an option.

By seeing that the noise is only noise.

Regardless of what it contains.

And that you are the one who listens.

The peace beneath the noise.

TRANSCRIPT

Her: “I’m testing the boundaries at the moment. I’m working with another teacher who you know, and just before I made an offer on this MasterClass, I had a session with her, and she had tested me and said, “Okay. Well, what do you feel comfortable offering?” kind of thing, and I felt like I handled it quite well. But I really struggled when it came to yours because there was nobody holding my hand, but I pushed myself with it as well. You were like, “Offer what’s true.” and I sat there with it and then I felt for my edges and I got to this point and I was like, “Oh, my God. I’m gonna do this thing on top of this other thing. I just did that and then I’m gonna do this”. And I was like but this is the only thing that feels right. Like I can’t, I couldn’t offer you anything else. There was nothing else I could give you that would be true. And I was just like okay, this is where I gotta go.”

The Noise Within The One (An Essay)

There is the ‘me’ (and the ‘you’) that dips into illusion / delusion / perceived separation / a temporary state of fear and insanity (looking at life / self / others through the limited / distorted human lens).

And the ME (and the YOU) that exists in actual reality.

In sanity / union / peace / clarity / purity / potent power.

In REAL love (not the human kind).

With nothing in the way.

It’s not one or the other though.

The other is part of THE ONE.

That noisy ‘me’ is part of ME.

That noisy ‘you’ — part of YOU.

Every part is part of THE EVERYTHING.

So it belongs and it’s not wrong.

It’s here to be seen and then seen through, of course.

Until it’s quiet once again.

  6. What feels like magic is just you unobstructed.

  7. I go where it’s the loudest, just to make it quiet.

  8. Anything you rely on will be stripped from you. You may as well strip yourself.

  9. The cleaner it gets inside and out, the more one notices - and the less one tolerates - debris of any kind.

  10. The only thing that's 'earned' is the state you experience from the work you do to keep that inner non-space pristine.

  11. They bring their mess to clean you up.

  12. The mess is part of the art.

  13. The things that jam your circuits are the portals to yourself.

  14. You know exactly how to clean up your shit.

  15. It’s not because you can’t clean it up. You just don’t want to — yet.

  16. Freshen it up or burn it down.

  17. Even in darkness, one can still be clean.

  21. Things move pretty fast when there’s nothing in the way.

  22. Oh, how I love when there's nothing in the way.

  23. It takes so little to play with me. But most are filled with so much.

  24. Getting unjammed where it’s been the most jammed, unjams you everywhere else.

  25. Equally empty and full.

  26. The human needs the clutter. The being is the space.

  27. Stillness. Silence. Space. Beneath the chaos, that’s all there is.

  28. Anything that isn’t true, that isn’t you, is clutter.

  29. Nothing needs to be added. What’s removed is what changes the game.

  32. Your system is naturally self-cleaning.

  33. Your job isn’t done until the matter is gone.

  34. Stay until nothing is left.

  35. From cluttered to clean. From restless to still. That’s the electric tone.

  36. If there’s nothing left, I’m out. If there’s no thing at all, I’m in.

  37. Either clean it up so that it hits your spot or let that fucking thing go.

  38. The real magic doesn’t happen once you get the shit. It happens once you clear it.

  39. Accumulation doesn’t impress or interest me. I prefer things light; not heavy.

  40. when there’s no one / when there’s no thing / when you’re empty / then you’ll see

  41. You can clean it all up in an instant.

  42. Bypassing does exist. But only if there’s clutter.

  43. The best ‘results’ come from dissolving inner resistance (seeing through matter which turns it right back to nothing); not from applying force externally in an attempt to compensate for the accumulation of matter that’s creating said resistance.

  44. what a mess / you make / of me (2015)

The Denser It Gets (An Essay)

when you perpetually self-abandon

the denser it gets

and when you do this over an extended period of time

that density

that was once only energetic

becomes matter

becomes ‘illness’ (both mental and physical)

because your system was not designed for such a deviation

it was designed to let you know all you need to know

to remain clean and intact

forevermore

so when you choose to ignore that knowing

over and over and over again

your brilliant system will turn up the volume until it just can’t be ignored

until you have no choice but to honour what you know and have always known

so even your ‘sickness’ (both mental and physical)

is still your system being brilliant as fuck

it never fails you

even when you ‘fail’ (deny) yourself

it speaks to you

for as long as it takes

until you finally listen

and choose to obey

and once you do

the ‘sickness’ dissolves

because it only arose

to point the way home

What's Left? (An Essay)

if you didn’t

think about it

talk about it

read about it

write about it

what would be left?

that’s all there is

if you didn’t feel the need

to do something about it

to fill it in

to intervene

to try so hard

to make a plan

to resist or avoid it

to judge or control it

to have it be different

to place a standard upon it

if you could just not touch it

accept what is and what isn’t

what would be left?

that’s all there is

True Salvation (An Excerpt)

From 'The Power Of Now' by Eckhart Tolle:

True salvation is a state of freedom — from fear, from suffering, from a perceived state of lack and insufficiency and therefore from all wanting, needing, grasping, and clinging.

It is freedom from compulsive thinking, from negativity, and above all from past and future as a psychological need.

Your mind is telling you that you cannot get there from here.

Something needs to happen, or you need to become this or that before you can be free and fulfilled. It is saying, in fact, that you need time — that you need to find, sort out, do, achieve, acquire, become, or understand something before you can be free or complete.

You see time as the means to salvation, whereas in truth it is the greatest obstacle to salvation.

You think that you can't get there from where and who you are at this moment because you are not yet complete or good enough, but the truth is that here and now is the only point from where you can get there.

You 'get' there by realizing that you are there already.

You find God the moment you realize that you don't need to seek God.

So there is no only way to salvation.

Any condition can be used, but no particular condition is needed.

However, there is only one point of access: the Now. There can be no salvation away from this moment.

You are lonely and without a partner? Enter the Now from there.

You are in a relationship? Enter the Now from there.

There is nothing you can ever do or attain that will get you closer to salvation than it is at this moment.

This may be hard to grasp for a mind accustomed to thinking that everything worthwhile is in the future.

Nor can anything that you ever did or that was done to you in the past prevent you from saying yes to what is and taking your attention deeply into the Now.

You cannot do this in the future.

You do it now or not at all.

The Chasm Between He And I (An Essay)

The chasm between he and I is immense.

Always has been.

Except, of course, when it’s not.

The only thing that has and could ever bridge that incredible divide is pure presence.

No self.

Those rare and delicious moments that he’s described as unimaginable, when we are both simultaneously present AND absent.

This or nothing.

AND

This because there’s nothing.

Which is why it’s futile to ‘work on’ the so-called relationship.

The only work is HERE; not there.

#remainempty

Within me; not with him.

(he is not my business)

Which is why I don’t care about bridging our divide.

I care about bridging my own.

Obliteration Dance (An Essay)

I chose him precisely because of the density.

The grit.

For the perceived dysfunction that would highlight my own so I could erect what had long been limp.

I used him to purify myself.

To be stripped even further.

To stay until nothing was left.

From the outside, it looked insane.

And to my human, it felt like hell.

But obliteration was what I was after.

Why else would I have danced right there?
