You think you know this person, that you are so busy trying to be, but you hardly know it at all. All you know of it are limited bits - the name and shape of the body that you think you are, governed by an apparently endless running commentary of a mind.
Way back when manifestation began to sparkle out of the nothingness and emptiness that always is - who you are - you enjoyed the delight and play of entering this ‘something’ that was arising out of and sustained by your true nature. You knew who you are. There was no loss with the obviousness of what was arising.
As you delighted in this play, of the manifest and the un-manifest that was unfolding, you never lost sight of who you are and have always been.
Over time manifestation took on more shape and more form.
Gradually, as you furthered out into this arising stuff of manifestation, without you even being aware of it, you began to get more and more caught up in the play of life that was arising around you. You slowly began to forget the qualities, subtleties, and clarity of who you are.
You danced, played, and thrilled in entering the very person that was forming. It was a delight. It was a joy. It was designed as such by the innate perfection of your true nature.
However, this forgetting of who you are had you missing out on so much richness and love. In many ways, it was good that you did not realise what you were missing out on, while you persisted in trying to be the person that you keep on trying to be.
In due course, the person continued to grow further and further out into the grossest parts of manifestation that were unfolding. Each new level of manifestation that was coming into being, was allowing for a greater individual expression of the person to be formed.
In other words, it gave the person a greater choice to be a unique individual.
The price to be paid for having this uniqueness was to forget even more of who you are. The cost of being in a place like planet Earth is very high, in terms of losing sight of just who you already are, have always been, and will always be.
This choice created the wonderful play of duality, where you can realise who you are while you are flowing through a person who has the gift for such uniqueness.
Such is the sheer beauty and innate wisdom of your true nature!
This wonderment of being able to realise who you are, had to grow through each stage of its own manifestation, step by step, for this to come about.
Your innate wisdom and ‘isness’ that gave birth to manifestation in the very first instance, allowed for all of this. After all, who you are wanted to realise itself at the most heightened point of uniqueness that it could.
And your “person” is precisely such a vehicle for this purpose.
Who you are has seasoned itself through the many unique individuals that populate this planet, and through the rest of the natural world that is here, with the joy that is itself.
Your ability to choose, which gives you such a distinctive flavour of uniqueness, allows the pain of trying to be something that is not who you are. This ability to choose, also allows you to realise who you truly are while you are still flowing through this person, as it continues to play the person out.
You are completely capable of waking up to the truth of you and living the expression of joy of this one.
Love has come to town.
We are at a point, in the evolution of humanity and this planet, where you can realise who you are without it taking decades or lifetimes. You can realise and live your true nature right now. You can continue realising who you are, right now, until that is what you do momentarily. Until you find yourself stably realising and living your true nature, and not mistaking yourself to be the person that who you are is flowing through ever again.
It does not have to take years for this stability to become your way of life. However, that would depend entirely on how willing you are in stopping and dropping your attempt to be this person. That would depend on how willing you are in staying attentive as who you are, instead of being distracted by the arisings of manifestation – either from your inner-world or from the outer-world.
The major difference in the energies of today is the break-neck speed in which all on this planet is changing.
The balance to all of the dreadful behaviour that is happening on this planet, is the wonderful capacity to actually and truly stand free as who you already are. Standing free, without it having to take the time it took for our spiritual predecessors.
You can stand free of the prison of your own making, right now. Now, is the shortcut to realisation. Not the now of your mind, but the now that is right now, before manifestation even begins for you in the next second. The now that is without a second.
So, you can realise what it is that you truly are!
You can stop and drop what you are not, to see and be who you already are right now. This now, without a second.
When you find the aliveness of who you are, which has you free of this person that it is flowing through, you are to stop at and as this one. Instead of getting distracted by the next thought that comes along, which takes you back to believing yourself to be who you think you are.
You can realise what it is that you truly are.
This great matter of realisation is a momentary thing. It is not a one-off seeing, or even many one-off seeings.
It is for you to be, momentarily, from one moment to the next. And you can, because it is already true of you.
This stability of realisation does not need to take thirty or forty years. You can realise who you are and live as this one, while it continues to flow through this person that you would otherwise believe yourself to be.
And you must realise who you are, for this journey of true discovery to be lived and experienced through the mind-body package that you find yourself flowing through.
In case you have missed it, what is being pointed to here is for you to realise and come to see just how wonderful what it is that you already are. It is for you to see how you automatically keep on being distracted from living the freedom that is always true of you moment by moment, and how you suffer that movement.
The journey of true discovery awaits your conscious participation. It waits for you to realise your true nature for yourself.
If you are serious about living the heart of what is already true of you, about freeing up from being distracted by what you find yourself flowing through, then do whatever it takes to learn this art.
Heart coming to life on this planet, can only come about through you realising what is always and already true of you.
Without this, the problems of humanity will only continue as they currently are.
You can make the difference. And you can start right now!
