Jólahugleišing - I am going step-by-step into what is meditation

 

I am going step-by-step into what is meditation. Please don't wait till the end, hoping to have a complete description of how to meditate. What we are doing now is part of meditation.Now, what one has to do is to be aware of the thinker, and not try to resolve the contradiction and bring about an integration between thought and the thinker.The thinker is the psychological entity who has accumulated experience as knowledge; he is the time-bound center that is the result of ever-changing environmental influence, and from this center he looks, he listens, he experiences. As long as one does not understand the structure and the anatomy of this center, there must always be conflict, and a mind in conflict cannot possibly understand the depth and the beauty of meditation.In meditation there can be no thinker, which means that thought must come to an end -the thought that is urged forward by the desire to achieve a result. Meditation has nothing to do with achieving a result. It is not a matter of breathing in a particular way, or looking at your nose, or awakening the power to perform certain tricks, or any of the rest of that immature nonsense. Meditation is not something apart from life. When you are driving a car or sitting in a bus, when you are chatting aimlessly, when you are walking by yourself in a wood or watching a butterfly being carried along by the wind; to be choicelessly aware of all that is part of meditation.

A man who believes in God can never find God

 

A man who believes in God can never find God. If you are open to reality, there can be no belief in reality. If you are open to the unknown, there can be no belief in it. After all, belief is a form of self-protection, and only a petty mind can believe in God. Look at the belief of the aviators during the war who said God was their companion as they were dropping bombs! So you believe in God when you kill, when you are exploiting people. You worship God and go on ruthlessly extorting money, supporting the army; yet you say you believe in mercy, compassion, kindliness. As long as belief exists, there can never be the unknown; you cannot think about the unknown, thought cannot measure it. The mind is the product of the past, it is the result of yesterday, and can such a mind be open to the unknown? It can only project an image, but that projection is not real; so your god is not God, it is an image of your own making, an image of your own gratification. There can be reality only when the mind understands the total process of itself and comes to an end. When the mind is completely empty-only then is it capable of receiving the unknown. The mind is not purged until it understands the content of relationship -its relationship with property, with people until it has established the right relationship with everything. Until it understands the whole process of conflict in relationship, the mind cannot be free. Only when the mind is wholly silent, completely inactive, not projecting, when it is not seeking and is utterly still -only then that which is eternal and timeless comes into being.

Yšur er ķ dag frelsari fęddur? - Enginn veit hvenęr eša hvar Jesśs frį Nasaret fęddist ...

 

Enginn veit hvenęr eša hvar Jesśs frį Nasaret fęddist, ekki daginn, ekki įriš, ekki stašinn. Į fjóršu öld var fęšingardagur hans įkvešinn meš hlišsjón af hįtķšardegi rómverska sólargušsins Sol Invictus sem var į vetrarsólstöšum, žegar dżpsta myrkur vķkur fyrir nżju ljósi. ...   

Hin andlega leit mannsins, sem viršist huga okkar įsköšuš, er žį fólgin ķ žvķ aš lįta sér ekki nęgja aš ašrir segi manni aš viš höfum įdaušlega sįl, heldur leitast viš aš kanna sjįlfur hvort svo sé – og er žaš reyndar ein skilgreining į dulhyggju. Kennimenn allra trśarbragša žurfa aš bera viršingu fyrir hinni eilķfu sannleiksleit mannsins hvort sem hśn er vķsindaleg eša andleg ...

Your Gods Are Dividing You

 

What is happening in the world? You have a Christian God, Hindu Gods, Mohammedans with their particular conception of God, each little sect with their particular truth; and all these truths are becoming like so many diseases in the world, separating people. These truths, in the hands of the few, are becoming the means of exploitation. You go to each, one after the other, tasting them all, because you begin to lose all sense of discrimination, because you are suffering and you want a remedy, and you accept any remedy that is offered by any sect, whether Christian, Hindu, or any other sect. So, what is happening? Your gods are dividing you, your beliefs in God are dividing you and yet you talk about the brotherhood of man, unity in God, and at the same time deny the very thing that you want to find out, because you cling to these beliefs as the most potent means of destroying limitation, whereas they but intensify it. These things are so obvious.

Nśiš - Frį huga til vitundar

 

Hefuršu nokkurn tķma reynt, gert, hugsaš eša fundiš eitthvaš fyrir utan Nśiš? Eša helduršu aš žś eigir žaš eftir? Getur eitthvaš gerst eša veriš utan žess? Svariš liggur ķ augum uppi, eša hvaš?    

Ekkert hefur nokkurn tķma gerst ķ fortķšinni; žaš gerist ķ Nśinu. Ekkert mun nokkurn tķma gerast ķ framtķšinni; žaš mun gerast ķ Nśinu.   

Žaš sem žiš hugsiš ykkur sem fortķš er ašeins minningar um lišiš Nś, minningar sem setiš hafa eftir ķ huganum. Žegar žiš minnist hins lišna, žį kalliš žiš žessar minningar fram – og žaš geriš žiš nśna.    

Framtķšin er įvallt hugsmķš eša hugarburšur, ķmyndaš Nś. Žegar framtķšin rennur upp, žį gerist žaš nśna. Žegar žiš hugsiš um hana, žį geriš žiš žaš lķka nśna.     Fortķš og framtķš eiga sér žvķ augljóslega enga sjįlfstęša tilvist. Rétt eins og tungliš er myrkvaš og gerir ekki annaš en endurvarpa skini sólar, žannig eru fortķš og framtķš ašeins dauft endurskin af birtu, mętti og veruleik hins eilķfa andartaks. Veruleiki žeirra er ,,fenginn aš lįni” frį Nśinu.    

Mergur žessa mįls veršur ekki skilinn meš huganum. Į žeirri stundu žegar žetta rennur upp fyrir ykkur, eiga sér staš umskipti ķ vitundinni, frį huga til Vitundar, frį tķma til nśvistar. Allt ķ einu finniš žiš fyrir öllu sem lifandi, einhverju sem Verandin geislar frį sér.

 

Eckhart Tolle – Mįtturinn ķ Nśinu

 


Atman

 

Know this Atman
Unborn, undying, 
Never ceasing, 
Never beginning, 
Deathless, birthless, 
Unchanging forever. 
How can It die
The death of the body?

Knowing It birthless, 
Knowing It deathless, 
Knowing It endless, 
Forever unchanging, 
Dream not you do
The deed of the killer, 
Dream not the power
Is yours to command it. 

Worn-out garments
Are shed by the body:
Worn-out bodies
Are shed by the dweller
Within the body.
New bodies are donned
By the dweller, like garments.

Not wounded by weapons, 
Not burned by fire, 
Not dried by the wind, 
Not wetted by water:
Such is the Atman, 
Not dried, not wetted, 
Not burned, not wounded, 
Innermost element, 
Everywhere, always, 
Being of beings, 
Changeless, eternal, 
Forever and ever.
Bhagavad-Gita: The Song of God

The answer to prayer

Prayer, which is a supplication, a petition, can never find that reality which is not the

outcome of a demand. We demand, supplicate, pray, only when we are in confusion, in

sorrow, and not understanding that confusion and sorrow, we turn to somebody else. The

answer to prayer is our own projection; in one way or another it is always satisfactory,

gratifying, otherwise we would reject it. So, when one has learned the trick of quieting

the mind through repetition, one keeps on with that habit, but the answer to supplication

must obviously be shaped according to the desire of the person who supplicates.

Now, prayer, supplication, petition, can never uncover that which is not the projection of

the mind. To find that which is not the fabrication of the mind, the mind must be quiet—

not made quiet by the repetition of words, which is self- hypnosis, nor by any other means

of inducing the mind to be still.

Stillness that is induced, enforced, is not stillness at all. It is like putting a child in the

corner—superficially he may be quiet, but inwardly he is boiling. So, a mind that is made

quiet by discipline is never really quiet, and stillness that is induced can never uncover

that creative state in which reality comes into being.
