What happens after liberation?
You start to see a lot of fireworks and colours and rainbows.
No.
Liberation means that you are no longer seeing life in accordance to a story.
You are no longer experiencing life.
The experience takes place.
You are living life and viewing life in an unconditional way.
Conditions are all stemming from a character,
A personhood,
A story.
You are no longer viewing life.
There is no one viewing it.
There is no one doing it.
It's happening as it's happening.
It's happening as anything has always been happening.
Without the influence of the story or the character,
Everything just seems so ordinary.
Even though we as humans like to define things,
We have put a definition on what normal is.
But really,
What I mean with ordinary is that it's even in a state,
In its purest state that comes before we deem as anything as normal.
What happens after liberation?
What happens after liberation is you still get up in the morning and you still brush your teeth.
You might take a shower,
You might have some breakfast.
And so what's the appeal?
Why am I walking this spiritual path?
What's the point?
Maybe it's to realize that there is no point.
And this can sound very daunting,
Very gloomy,
Very meaningless to people.
But do you know who needs a point?
The story always needs a plot,
Always needs something,
Some type of foreshadowing.
It always needs the subsequent step to ensure that it's still on track.
Even though we are the ones who have defined a particular track or trajectory in life,
The moment we steer away from that and we don't fulfill our goals,
Our desires,
It's like life is working against us,
Even though life has provided us with the opportunity to lay the tracks the way we want.
What happens after liberation is nothing,
Nothing happens,
Aside from what's always been happening.
And that's life.
Everything just is and is just happening.
There is no more of a subscription to how things should be.
There's no tendency to try and control how things should be.
Because the way things are is in a way the way things should be,
Regardless of the opinion or the thoughts.
And so everything just happens.
When I speak,
There is no one speaking.
Speaking just happens.
As listening is just happening on your side.
And you can go even further to say that actually there are no sights.
When the ego or the character or the eye defines a particular matter as meaningless or unprofound,
That's only a particular perspective in accordance to the story and the ego.
And so when the ego drops or the story is dropped,
Who is there to define what is meaningful or what is profound?
In a way,
It's a realization that all this time you've been getting in your own way.
Sounds are still heard.
Pictures are still seen.
Matters are still felt.
But that's it.
There's no caveat.
There's no prerequisite.
There's no condition.
It's all just flowing as it's always been,
Without the intervention of a separate self.
No longer are you going through life,
But life is just going.
No longer are you a victim to life.
Life is just happening.
If this has somehow disappointed you,
It hasn't disappointed life.
I hope you see this.
If this has made you feel in some type of uncomfortable way,
It hasn't discomfited life.
For life cannot be discomfited.
Only a character can,
A story,
An opinion can,
A thought,
A projection.
These things can feel discomfort and have their own opinions.
Is there a strive to protect opinions and thoughts and ideologies?
For as long as that strive persists,
There is still an illusion,
As though life is happening in accordance to he or she who strives.
But once that strive is dropped,
The story has no more of a projection towards something.
It has no more of a push towards something.
It's like,
Hey,
What's happening?
Where is it all going?
One can awaken to this.
I really hope that you are somehow touched by this.
Because you are anyway.
It's just a matter of opening up to that fact.
Thank you so much for watching.
