Acceptance of 'that' state/being/feeling/eternity/contentment/+ is who you are.

It amazes me just how much Osho left behind. I can't keep up with all the new book releases from audio transcripts. But they're so lovely.


Fortunately I've reached the stage of contentment at my current level. Seeking further input in the 'enlightenment' genre is unnecessary.


Zen is a method. Its a way to remove clutter and fog. Quoting Zen rules, methods is not really practicing Zen. Its describing it.


Zen offers a simple method. Focus on Breathing. Stay present with yourself and observe that process. Merge into the stillness and just sit.


A lot of Zen has clutter as well believe it or not. I'm a hack. I read a bit. Liked the idea. Did the focus on breathing. And voila!


If I was asked to talk about Zen It would soon appear that I didn't know much. that's a blessing. I didn't get lost in the hype or dogma.


How does one know when you've completed the journey? You accept what you've found. You love what you've found. Doubt no longer exists.


Death is not an issue anymore. One doesn't seek it - one doesn't fear it. Why? Acceptance of who you are and the eternity of your beingness.


How do you know if you've completed your seeking? There is no need for defending. There is no need for quoting or convincing. Job Done~whew.


However, while seeking one should be prepared to die trying to find the answer. Without the passion of seeking it just won't come alone.


Seeking should be your number one priority over everything! But take regular breaks. Stop completely at times.


If you've reached a point of total satisfaction with your beingness(sitting in silence emerged in your being) stay there. Nearly there.


When ready the next step is Acceptance of 'that' state/being/feeling/eternity/contentment/+ is who you are.


That final step is no longer important how long it takes. One is content with 'that'. Perhaps a small ripple will take you into 'that' 4ever.
