Nothing to say, yet

The main ideas from this information are about turning our attention inward to find inner peace and stillness. It emphasizes that our true identity is not tied to our body or mind, but to the awareness within us. The speaker encourages us to rest in our being and let go of trying to achieve or fix anything. They also talk about the concept of non-dual reality, where everything is equal in love and truth. The speaker suggests that our thoughts appear to us like the weather, and we don't have control over them. They explore the idea of freedom and clarify that true freedom is found in consciousness, not in our limited body or mind. They emphasize the importance of understanding our true freedom and letting go of the belief in limitation. The speaker encourages us to investigate our beliefs and seek clarity and certainty about our true nature. So if we can turn our attention inward, the inner peace, the stillness there. The presence now, the divine presence. Welcome your experience just as it appears to you. Welcome. In this moment contemplate that I refers to this effortless awareness and not to somebody, not to the body mind. The body mind has a name but you have no name. Meaning you consciousness have no name. Perceptions appear to you. Instant by instant. Simultaneously appearing and dissolving and disappearing. But nothing happens to you, you being this aware presence. So you don't need to imagine yourself to be somebody, to be a man or a woman or somebody. In order to hear these words, nothing is needed, nothing is required. So you can rest. You rest as being, as presence. You don't need memory, you don't need to remember anything. You don't need to do anything. So simply rest as you are. Just for the duration of this meeting you can let go of trying to achieve anything, trying to fix anything. Make no distinctions whatsoever. In particular vis-a-vis I, do not make any distinctions between I and not I. Explore or be open to the possibility that everything is I. That awareness does not exclude anything. Everything is equal in love. Everything is equal in truth, in reality. Although distinctions apply to the mind. Appropriately so. There are no distinctions that apply to reality. There are no distinctions that apply to love, to truth, to consciousness. From the mind's perspective, sometimes I love A and I don't love B. Or I love B and I don't love A. But from the perspective of reality, from the perspective of consciousness, all is love. All is love. All is truth. So we can recognize in this moment our non-dual reality. The reality of consciousness which has no borders. In consciousness there isn't my consciousness and your consciousness. My reality and your reality. No. It is one. One reality. This meeting is titled what is freedom if I do not choose my thoughts. That thoughts appear to us like the weather appears to us. We don't have files and folders to which we go in order to pick and choose the current thoughts. That is not our experience. We perceive a thought. It appears to us. There is not a personal chooser which is choosing thought A and rejecting thought B. So then one may wonder where is my freedom? What is my freedom? After all we all know there is a reality to freedom. It is not just a concept. We know it deeply within us in our heart. In order to come to an understanding about your freedom, your true freedom, your real freedom, you need to come to clarity about what I means, what I refers to. Actually there is limited freedom to the body. Body minds are limited. They have a limited freedom, a limited capacity, a limited potential. But when we say I, are we referring to the body? Are we referring to a limited entity? Or are we referring to the reality which in this moment perceives this perception? Whatever that is, something real is. There is a reality that perceives even if this is a dream. There is a reality which perceives. We have to be clear that there is only one I which is the reality which perceives, which we refer to as consciousness or presence or reality or being. As being we are all the same, we are all one. This is one aware presence. And the freedom we are speaking about is the freedom of consciousness. Because consciousness is not phenomenal. It is not made out of flesh and bones or molecules, atoms. It is not made out of sticks and stones. Consciousness is what we refer to as I. Each one of us refers to ourselves as I. This female form or male form or this mother or father, daughter, son, cousin. No, I. The formless invisible presence that is alive and aware knows that it is. I know I am. I know I am I. I know I am aware. Not I know I am a female awareness or a male awareness. That is a fallacy. This I is one I, one reality. We have to be clear about the reality of consciousness and that this reality is nothing else but this very self I. This very, this awareness, this normal mundane awareness is God's awareness. And that is where God's freedom, your freedom, the freedom of awareness, the freedom of consciousness is. It is not in your personhood. It is not in your body. It is not in your mind. There is a limited freedom there. So you need to come to understanding about your true freedom so that you cease to suffer from the sense of limitation which plagues us all. It is time to see through this false belief of limitation. This sense of conditional freedom. I will be free when and if. Sometimes in the future we have to see through this fallacy to come to understanding about consciousness and the freedom and the joy and the happiness and the love that it is, that I am. And the path to this understanding is to investigate. Investigate your belief that you, meaning consciousness, is limited depends on the body-mind. Investigate this evidence. Is there any evidence that you are born? Not that the body is born. Not that a thought arises, but that you, that consciousness is born and that consciousness exists in time and space. This is your investigation. Via your investigation you will come to your understanding. Not my understanding, your own understanding. Your own certainty. So that this certainty will be yours. The clarity will be yours. What evidence is there that consciousness will die one day? That it is limited? That it is personal? That it resides inside my body or inside my brain or two inches behind my eyes? What is that evidence that you have outside of the belief that you are limited and personal? Meaning always you means consciousness. Not the body. Of course we all know the body is limited. That's not a big deal. You, consciousness. I, consciousness. So this inquiry is yours to conduct. To seek assistance in the process as needed. In order to come to your certainty, to your clarity. That there is no personal freedom. That your freedom is real. It is God's freedom. It is the freedom of consciousness. The freedom which is your reality. Revisit that over and over until you come to clarity. Thank you. Thank you.
