**Note: Truth does not always sound pleasant. If the mind is not really peaceful now, it might not be a perfect moment to listen to this podcast, one has to be aware of the emotions or reactions that can block one from listenING ATTENTIVELY and with HUMILITY. This talk is a meditation practice. What one needs to do is listen attentively, without getting stuck in words, examine the mind in silence, not agree or disagree, and just look at the mind as it is. Doing so is already part of true meditation.

Transcript

To live actually is not a thought processes Though thoughts have their places,

But the actual living must be existing now Else we are talking about a life that have existed or that will exist has no meaning at all And only when we are really acting now,

We can really live a life that is really existing now So we think together,

Means that the mind is not trapped in any thoughts,

Any illusions So there is no space at all for so-called personal experiences So the mind is thinking thinly and clearly,

See our issues actually And very doing so embodies this true meditation If one is still seeking a method or path or a system,

One is not serious at all in understanding everything,

The life,

The living Because that seeking itself is a trap,

There are so many gurus to give you that self fulfillment,

The method,

The practice,

The system But for one who is really serious,

One must totally negate that The path,

The system,

The method implies time,

Implies efforts,

Progress,

Achievement It is the same circus that is repeated in the life time and time again For anyone who is really serious to understand this,

Eager to find out what is really true,

What is the force,

One must negate that totally If the mind can't change now,

It can't change forever When the time kicks in,

The mind keeps postponing If the mind sees danger of that,

This psychological time that traps the mind in the endless narrative The mind must feel urgent to leave,

To kick out any psychological time The real living is only now,

It must be existing,

Or else it never exists And doing that requires one to give full attention
