Nothing ever truly ends—everything dissolves into itself in silence, as if all arrangements were merely preparation for giving birth to a wordless journey.
There is no conclusion here—because the soul has no beginning, no end. Where there is no 'I', no time, no purpose—in that very void the soul shines, established in its own radiance.
Whatever there is to learn is only the teaching of renunciation. To abandon name, form, experience, understanding, practice—even the very sense of 'I'.
When the 'experiencer' itself dissolves into consciousness, then it becomes clear—liberation is not an achievement, but the end of 'the desire to attain.' Truth—which is never an experience, never knowledge, never definition—is 'a luminous presence in the absence of experience.'
Nothing else exists in this world—duality is merely illusion. The 'I' that wants to experience, knows, loves—is not the undivided consciousness that stands behind all things.
The soul wants nothing, knows nothing, enjoys nothing—it simply is. And being in that "is-ness" itself means liberation while living. When the triad of knower, knowing, and known dissolves, truth is realized. That is, as long as there is something to know, there is a knower—and as long as that exists, liberation is impossible. Liberation means the end of the knower as well.
The soul's soliloquy—an ultimate offering!
: I wanted nothing—I merely was.
: Yet memory, desire, attachment—made me into an experiencer.
: Today I have left all those experiences behind at unknown boundaries.
: Now I don't even keep myself as companion.
: I simply remain—in a nameless, desireless form beyond joy.
: Where there is no feeling, yet everything is perceived.
: Where language stops, but understanding blooms.
Meditation is not the path to realization—rather, it is the invisible dissolution of the 'I', an immersion in silent consciousness. Come, let us sit each day for some time—purposeless, without wanting. Let us observe every pull of the senses—without following them. The feeling will arise, "I am meditating"—let us quietly watch that 'I'. Let us sense—in the depths of this witnessing, an unwavering 'is-ness' exists. Gradually the sense of 'I' will begin to fade—only being will remain. In the dissolution of meditator-meditation-object of meditation, the soul recognizes itself.
Imagine there was once a river—nameless, without destination. On its banks stood a traveler, whose name was 'I'. Again and again it wanted to plunge into that river—seeking liberation. But the river was saying—I am no place of liberation—I am that very you, if you can let yourself go.
The traveler slowly enters the river—the water covers it—and then only the river remains, the 'I' is nowhere to be found.
At some point, the longings within us wear away. Then there is no goal—instead we sit—quietly, without any purpose, simply established in consciousness. It begins to feel...whatever there was to know has been lost. Whatever there was to understand has become still. Only a silent 'is-ness' remains—which wants nothing, knows nothing, experiences nothing—yet is complete.
Nothing more exists. Because nothing exists—everything is complete. This is the end of the experiencer-state—not through naming, but through namelessness, the self-awakening of a soul that shows the way.
There Is—Only There Is
