Truth never explains why it’s moving and if you ask, it won’t give any information. It
would be like a leaf asking the wind, “Why are you moving that way right now?” The question doesn’t make sense to the wind. After awakening you no longer argue whit the way truth move -whatever that way is. You’re no longer trying to figure it out. Mother Mary didn’t figure it out.
Buddha didn’t figure it out. Ramana didn’t figure it out. None of them figured it out.They just became That.
Simple. Ordinary in the same way a leaf is ordinary. When you’re being and living in an awakened way, power on any level is not an issue
for you. It’s not interesting. The power to control another human being is not interesting. Intellectual power is
not interesting. The power to control yourself is not interesting. The power that people want to give you is not
interesting to you, not because it shouldn’t be; it’s just not. What would you want to do with it? You see that
there’s nothing you want to do with it.
You realize, in the truth of your being, that you are the totality itself, but you have no interest whatsoever in doing anything with that knowledge, with using that knowledge. Finally, you realize that you really don’t want to change anybody, not because you shouldn’t want to change them, because you just don’t. You might not want to be around everyone, but still you don’t want to change them. None of this is an ideal -it’s the end of ideals. None of this is holiness; it’s the end of holiness. It’s the beginning of wholeness. None of this is something to achieve, because it’s not achievable. It’s simply what is in the truth of your being. It’s just what is. You can’t attain what’s naturally so. And nobody anywhere can ever tell you when or why, or to what degree you’ll let go of untruth, you will let go when you let go, usually when nothing else works.
When you’re living the awakened way, in the awakened being that you are, you’re alone, and you’re finally comfortable with it. You’re alone, but you’re not lonely at all, because the only one who was ever supposed to meet you where you are and the only one who ever could meet you where you are one hundred percent was you. Nobody else could ever fully meet you where you are maybe ninety percent, maybe ninety-five. Nobody can meet you fully but you. When you finally do, then you don’t need anybody else to do it for you. Then you’re alone, more alone than you could ever imagine. And strangely you are more connected, more intimate, more at one with everything. More and you would have never thought that those two could in any way be together -total aloneness and total oneness. You would have never guessed that that’s the way it would end up. But it does, and it always has.
And finally, when you’re just living in the awakened way that you really are, you’ll never form an image again of what it’s like. Even as it’s happening, you won’t form an image because you’ll know they’re all images, dust. The way it was yesterday won’t be the way it is today.
