Non participating observation

Try it now
The Now doesn’t pass, yet - all is passing through it

We know a state of -

  • active mind

  • Restless mind

  • A mind that is full

We do not know a state of -

  • empty mind

  • Without movement

It is so simple to see, that any act of knowing

Is full.

And any act of not knowing

is empty

If you take away the quality of total, absolute, ( allow imperfection )

And meet your mind as it is,

Watch it,

Give attention to all that moves in your mind,

Participation in that observation is the act of knowledge.

Observation without participation is the fact of emptiness.


So at any time when you watch, when you become aware of the state of your mind,

Do not participate in that observation,

Let it come naturally and present exactly what is there:

  • Exactly the movement

  • Exactly the restlessness

  • Exactly the nature of the mind as it is

Non participation will allow the observation to flower beyond your limits.

You,

May not know about it, recognize it, measure it,

But see if it is so.

And see Now,

Because there is no other time.
