do not wait however for difficult situations to push you into presence
that's it's good if that happens but choose presence even when you're not
being challenged because that is vital otherwise life will the universal
intelligence that underlies all phenomena will see that oh this guy
needs more problems because otherwise he goes to sleep all the time let's give
him a few more all I've seen oh you're so you using what whenever you're
waiting you become present when you're in nature you're present you invite
presence into your life in the middle of the night when War II starts you
suddenly realize this is not only futile it's also destructive and you surrender
that kind of thinking and put your attention on your breathing instead or
into your body those are things you voluntarily invite presence into your
life and then presence power so to speak presence power grows in you then as a
bigger situation happens there's so much more presence to deal with it I've spent
years of my life just dwelling in presence you don't have to do that I
mean you can be active at the same time they were years my life Rizzo that's
very little doing that was just sometimes spending hours on my bicycle
or walking in a park just just being and sometimes I had this strange
a feeling that there's a reason why I have to do that it's not doing it just
solid so it's like going going very deep in order to go out and make a difference
in this world I had to go very deep within first very deep and then the
going out became possible how much difference you make in this world is
always relative to how deep you go within yourself how much presence your
access within yourself how how connected you are with whom with the essence of
all you are the essence of life there determines how much difference you
really make in this life and so you're all going to make and are already making
an enormous difference and the universe loves consciousness the universe is
consciousness and consciousness wants to emerge more fully on this planet and
many other planets I'm sure because that is not and Anais the evolution of the
whole universe so by having the awakening of consciousness and and the
your presence practice as your main life goal no matter what you do on the
surface of your life your job your relationships your main goal is in your
relationships in your work situation in your home situation your main goal is
being present wherever you are with whatever you do then your life becomes
empowered and you will do a lot of good without necessarily feeling it I am
doing it it flows through you and those of you
still looking for something to do they want him the question often people ask
me what am I meant to do why am I meant to be
who am I meant to being with and of course the first answer is the
foundation for it all to find out where you're meant to be what you're meant to
do who you are meant to be with the first other is you're meant to be here
you're meant to be doing what you're doing right now and you're meant to be
with whoever you are with right now in this moment
that's Foundation doesn't I'm not talking about for the rest of your life
but right now so you come to a full acceptance of whatever is in the present
moment now most people who are trying to figure out what they're supposed to do
in their lives they don't give their fullest attention and they're not fully
aligned with the present moment where they are or their ways they are
rejecting it in some way and that obstructs the power and obstructs the
arising of presence so you become accepting and comfortable with where you
are right now so you're meant to be here right now
that's why I'm meant to be here so that can become a foundation for realizing
what you should do once you accept the isness of present
moment what doing then arises out of that state of alignment with life with
alignment with the present moment then you might get insights into what it is
you want to do or rather what the universe or that one consciousness wants
to use you for so you no longer look at what do I want from life but what does
life want from me what how can I be of service to the one consciousness you
could say and if then it begins to flow through
you and it could be my start I saw you in exactly the same doing that they'd
already been doing but now you're doing it fully presently let's say you're an
aspiring actress but in the meantime you're working at a fast food restaurant
so can you be fully accepting of where you are right now without losing your
goal but giving your fullest - having attention to whatever you're doing right
now even if it seems repetitive you give it your loving attention and it is often
the case when you are completely in lines and completely accept what is
things begin to change when you are in non-acceptance internally your stock can
also happen that once you accept the present moment completely you realize I
this is not I cannot be here any longer and you just walk out they can happen
too but it would not be a confrontational thing it's a very
peaceful realization what it is that you need to do so on that whatever it is
you're doing at this moment I sometimes admire in some restaurants you have
waiters or waitresses well wonderfully present thank you it doesn't necessarily
mean the most expensive restaurant interacting the most expensive often
they're just snobbish and they don't but it's um even in simple restaurants some
are just they when they put a glass down the present the standard care and
attention and then they asked what you want their present it's so if anywhere
you can practice presence you can affect people no matter where you are because
he will come into contact with some people its presence is contagious as
Tammy just told us in a good way presence is country
Agis whoever you come into contact with will be affected by your presence and
then you will attract almost miraculously the right people or the
right situations into your life that then will bring about a change so by
being present you are connected to the totality and you attract people and
situations into your life that are helpful and then once just you realize
oh this is what I want to do the doing the inside comes or it could be just a
continuation of what you're doing already but now you do doing it in an
empowered way might be totally different too once you realize and you take more
action empowered by presence then you find many helpful factors suddenly
appearing in the moment you're aligned with the rising consciousness and your
main goal is presence sustaining presence no matter where you are and
what you're doing then your actions become empowered buying that one
consciousness new ideas time events helpful things happen it does not mean
that opts obstacles do not happen in fact obstacles often do happen but an
obstacle and this is vital and you need to be very unnerved within yourself and
an obstacle rises in the form of something not working out in the form of
a person person wants to block you sabotage you whatever it is an obstacle
or difficult bureaucrats or government departments don't want you to do
whatever you want obstacles and an obstacle arises and you become negative
and angry irritated upset that means you've lost the power
you've lost presence it's no longer flowing through you the ego is coming so
how do you deal with obstacles in your course chosen claws of action determines
whether there's a continuing power flowing through you or whether the ego
has taken its place so an obstacle is never formed against you either walk
around it so to speak all you transform it by bringing a positive energy to it
so you don't make people who seem to be blocking you into enemies so you don't
you transform the seeming obstacle it can be transformed into a big into
actually a helpful presence because your state of consciousness determines the
further development of that situation the situation arises what happens after
the situation has arisen is determined by the state of consciousness in which
you receive or respond to that situation so a difficult person if you are if you
react egoic lee against a difficult person then that person will become even
more difficult and in the process you your consciousness goes down down you
become and you will end up at the same level of consciousness is that difficult
person the moment to be a boss shot at each other this has happened to
spiritual people they lost it it's okay you have to lose it then you regain it
and you lose it again and then you regain it so if you find yourself in a
counting argument with somebody obviously you lost it
if you beat yourself up for happy being in the shouting arguing somebody you
lost it again okay I lost again I'm going to beat myself up again from
losing it the second time when I beat myself up no so you become accepting
also of your own shortcomings and start again but it's a survival any situation
that comes your attitude your consciousness towards the situation
determines how it develops further whether it's a human being or a more
complex situation at work or relation in the relationship so there's an active
part in you that determines what what happens in that sense one could say that
the universe reality so-called rift tends to reflect back to you your state
of consciousness and some people create enormous drama out of very little the
tiny little thing and the reaction the egoic reaction is so huge that the tiny
little King gets blown up out of all proportion and then they they even
convince others that this is a huge drama one of my shortcomings is that I
cannot respond to all the mail I get or read all the manuscripts in books people
send and I would need to staff of several full-time people just to respond
to letters and if they're responding to letters they will get more letters back
and proliferate I read some and it's
wonderful to read often it's a beautiful message what we've been helped some
people however the eagle may be quite slow
they expect an answer they don't realize how many people write in I had this when
my path now was published somebody said to me you should send it to a famous
person and that famous bust could write a endorsement and I knew the book will
reach many more people so I sent it to Deepak Chopra and my entire and never
heard from them and I thought okay well they may not have write it or they read
it and didn't like it I didn't fully realize I didn't have great expectations
didn't realize they can't read but they get hundreds of books every month how
can they meet my book I didn't know that but I didn't have an ego reaction about
it later Deepak Chopra of course did read the poem now and wrote a lovely
endorsement when I didn't need it anymore but there are some people who
got so angry with me because I didn't respond to their letters that it became
gigantic drama things coming one after another but how dare you drama I became
the worst person on the planet to them it's just a little example of the same
relatively insignificant thing can proliferate and grow into some huge Cuba
in consciousness so it's a you actually the development of your life and what
situations you encounter is related to your state of consciousness and as your
state of consciousness changes the way in which you experience the world in
other words people events situations change
that's it doesn't mean it won't be challenging anymore but the challenges
will be of a different kind and dealing with them will become so much easier and
occasionally when a big one comes that means you're meant to go even deeper
into presence it's all they said it works beautifully once you see because
when you many people they look at the surface of life and it looks like it's
all random events happening in it's all totally chaotic and meaningless and I
don't understand any of it there is an intelligence behind it but when you only
know get the surface of surface reality you don't necessarily see it you have a
very limited view
so it's up to you to be aligned with that real intelligence is behind the
entire world that creates form in lives in and through form and yet also exists
in a timeless formless dimension that we couldn't cannot possibly conceive of as
you know the universal belief even now still held by mainstream science is that
the universe is a random accidental event that is still the main belief of
mainstream science every old life is accidental there's no intelligence
behind it and you are accident somehow happened and the greatest mystery of the
universe it is not the atomic realm or the galaxies the greatest mystery of the
universe science has hardly approached and doesn't know anything about the
greatest mystery of the universe is the fact that the universe is conscious and
what consciousness is science doesn't know in some scientists evening neither
there is such a thing as consciousness what do I say about that must be the
chemical soup in the brain is having a kind of illusion but the only thing that
you cannot doubt is that you are conscious even if everything else is a
dream which it could be and in a way it is but the fact is the dream is
appearing in the light of consciousness without which there would be no dream so
I am conscious and of course science tells you that
consciousness isn't an epiphenomenon another word weight would be byproduct
of the brain of the material brain so that consciousness if they even use the
word is produced by something that happens in the material brain and there
is certainly a correlation between your consciousness and your physical brain it
would be absurd to deny the correlation between consciousness and your physical
brain what could easily prove it because if a break falls in my head now I won't
be conscious anymore now does that prove the let cut the
consciousness is produced by my brain not necessarily it could well be that my
brain is a kind of transformer or transmitter of universal consciousness
in the same way that a radio or TV picks up signal transmits it and gives it a
certain form so when you destroy the television Center the radio nothing
significant is destroyed because the radio was never the producer of that
radio program it was only created to bring those frequencies into this
dimension and keep it create a particular kind of world here that is
created by consciousness that is permeated by consciousness so where
science is going whether they will eventually realize believe believe they
will that consciousness is not confined to the human brain they will see that
there is a consciousness in the flower there's a consciousness even in
so-called inanimate a tiny tiny glimmer of consciousness even
stone in so in other words the material world we could reuse the analogy and say
the material world the world of hard matter is a bit like frozen
consciousness in the same way that water can exist in different states you can
have frozen water you can have liquid water you can have
motor is vapour in the air or mist so you can consciousness can manifest and
does manifest as the physical universe you can manifest as the human mind and
thought and it can manifest as presence so you have the eyes you have the liquid
and you have the immaterial vapour or mist it's all water and it's all
consciousness that's so there is only consciousness then this is the one
behind the many everything is consciousness the essence of who you are
is consciousness and then the mightest so what is consciousness
you can't say what it is because it's everything so it's if you said god yes
and now as a final inside of my mystical inside this consciousness emanates from
a source that does not exist in space or time that is the what Buddha calls the
unmanifested the unborn the uncreated that is truly what if God has any
meaning it is that if you cannot conceive of it you cannot talk about it
you cannot name it it's see it's that which precedes the Big Bang what was
there before the Big Bang nothing okay so the whole universe came out of
nothing yeah okay that's strange that nothing that no thing is God and
then God appears as the world and begins to dream the dream of the world and
after God has dreamt the dream of the world the dream gets a bit difficult and
to all the entities in the dream it's the sounds of the universal
consciousness believe themselves to be independent entities and then the dream
becomes a nightmare and then God begins to wake up that was applied all along
and even as God begins to wake up God continues to create but at the same time
realizes his/her own source I'm trying to explain to you the entire universe
which is totally impossible but it's a little hint it's a bit like match that
someone can say it's a bit like that
but you contain the entire universe and the secret of the entire universe is
within you you just have to look within if you want to know about what about the
universe we'll look within you are a microcosm of the macrocosm as the
ancient dictum s above so below God is in you as you consciousness is
the light emanated by God now in the same way that the Sun emanates light is
light different from the Sun or is like connect part of the Sun it's always
always part of the salmon's it's not disconnected from the Sun it still is
the Sun so in that sense each one of you may is a ray of that one consciousness
like a ray of sunlight and then the ray goes out and creates a while and looks
around and then the Ray doesn't realize it it's part of the Sun and things it's
an independent entity that makes it really interesting the dream otherwise
the dream wouldn't be that interesting and then the universal dream starts and
then it gets difficult and dangerous and then at some point this ray of sunlight
of consciousness begins to remember it's orange n not only origin but actually in
the source out of which he continuously emanates oh oh it's not that bad after
all it's actually and then a big it continues to exist in this world and
create even in this world but at the same time is conscious of the source
that means a totally different world has created that the new earth on our planet
when humans are aware of their connecting us to the source what they
then do and their activities and what they produce as the world is very
different from the world that is created by humans who are not aware of their
small in other words eager egoic entities this
is what's happening now it's not that the dream of form is coming to an end
but there's a significant metamorphosis happening
the dream is be turning into it a very different dream when humans as humans
become more aware of their connectedness to source creation will become much
easier time will come when humans are can create by using thought only then
you don't need factories anymore you can create through thought but that cannot
happen until humans are connected aware of their source because if there had the
power to create and create the sonics to some extent it's already happens but if
they have the truth full power to create your thoughts they could create havoc
you mentioned it ego being able to create whatever it wanted just by
thinking about it but thought is potentially the creative tool it's it's
it's already operating now but it's used unconsciously and often creating not
very pleasant experiences so thought eventually can be used but that's we
don't need to go there that happens by itself for us it is vital to live in
connectedness with souls and then that's going to loosen it as I said the other
day you see to dream a lucid living and so you you become aware of they dream
like nature of existence and you actually enjoy that and you create a
more pleasant dream for yourself and for others so that was a secret of the
universe I left it with the last session
so now you go off little rays of consciousness reaching different parts
of Australia and the rest of the world
don't you forget to wrap up warm and if you live in the central or eastern parts
of North America it's very cold at the moment mm-hmm
that's okay can enjoy that choice we had a wonderful retreat I'm grateful for
being here with us in presence
you know what your mission is but don't become missionaries don't try to
convince anybody of anything just presence is enough I'd like to thank our
wonderful team to knowing such great work and the people also here at Resort
have been very helpful and let's I'd like to ask him also to come and join me
here to say goodbye to you can you jump up yes
