the summer solstice sutra

AUM


if a word falls in the stream and no one hears it, does it make a ripple?

when i become a person again, i want to be a weatherman.

so much depends upon the cranberry juice poured in a cup beside a copy of the tao te ching.


i am looking through my kaleidoscope of mind and got lost in its colorful dimensions.

excuse me for now, i am teaching my mind that it's not me.

good mind! here, have a tweet.


what is aumshantidatta?

it's a hyperconscious node of consciousness emanating from my consciousrest of pure awareness.

so speak!

my name is aumshantidatta and i am a recovering personiholic.


there is all the difference between being conscious without thought and thinking consciously without thought.

one is the present energetic awareness of the world of appearances within the conscious space of oneself.

the other is the passive understanding that the world appears to be within oneself.


before enlightenment, i chop wood and i carry water; after enlightenment, chopping wood and carrying water.

a person looks with the mind; conscious-awareness looks through the mind.

a person is never enlightened; at best, one can say localized consciousness is enlightened, and even saying that, of course, is sketchy.

BEING AWARE is all, the whole enchilada, the nondual this/that.

BEING AWARE is energetic intelligence, nuclear awareness; it burns the eyes!

the berry atmosphere of summer itself...
