I don’t know if I’m ready to write this yet, but it’s been a while so I thought I’d have a go and see what comes out. I should say sorry at the start because I’m going to lapse into ‘Buddhism mode’ to share this, simply because it’s the tools that Buddhism offers that led […]

Do you want it to mean something? Do you believe it can help make sense of your life? Do you seek answers? Do you believe there are those who can provide them? Are you looking for a point? Is there a chance that you’re really seeking a better, truer story? Aren’t all stories really a […]
Freedom is the freedom to see clearly. We may speak about awakening as if we know it but it isn’t known, it’s experienced. Thought can reflect on that experience and relate some parts of it in words but it isn’t simply a thought. It’s not some formula or story, it’s not a belief or a […]
Someone asked me yesterday, ‘Is it worth it?’ We had been discussing non-duality and got to part about dropping everything along the way, seeing through attachments, beliefs, identity. I’d been blunt, there was no point sugar coating it but it’s not easy stuff to take on board, hence the question, I guess. I really didn’t […]
Bear with me, this is going to be a long one (because you won’t get much from the short answer). Firstly let me say that this post, like all the other posts is not here to sell non-duality. Non-duality is not going to solve your problems, make your life better or improve you in any […]
When you get right down to it all spiritual paths are about awakening; awakening to this, seeing the truth that is the present moment with clarity. I know de-mystifying it in that way may not appeal to all, but fundamentally there is no mystery to solve, no hidden truth to uncover and in fact you […]
A lot of this is about identification. It seems to start with belief; unconscious belief. Unexamined belief that arises automatically so that when a thought or feeling arises, rather than seeing it, we are it. We’re born as it a thousand time a day. When thoughts and feelings aren’t believed, when they’re seen; experienced as […]
Life has got complicated, hasn’t it? I was noticing it just this week; computers were supposed to make life quicker, and make our jobs easier but what happened? We just made everything much more complex and detailed to compensate and so we really haven’t made any progress. Layer upon layer of bureaucracy and not much […]
Preamble: Rather than qualify every individual statement in this post, let me say that nothing written here should be taken as an assertion. These are just invitations to look and consider and if they are helpful please feel free to make use of them; if not then equally, feel free to set them aside. One […]
Few people really want to awaken. Much like physical sleep we don’t really want to wake up. Not when we’re in the middle of having a nice dream; when we’re cosy and comfy and not ready to face the day. Why would we? Why would we want to face the cold reality of day when […]
