Encounter

Spirituality is the art of undivided seeing – beholding the whole of reality through the lens of our own wholeness. Not aiming for perfection but taking responsibility for how we relate to this very moment.

Once we see skillfully, the rest follows of its own accord. For the One Life is already living itself within us, this present flowering we learn to say YES to – including all its glories and sorrows. The great Divine breath is so vast it even embraces seeming opposites like death, which is merely transformation.

My small story is not about me, but about This that endures all changing forms. It is about Love, which alone can heal our self-inflicted blindnesses and distorted lenses.

Left to our insecure egos, we erect barriers, resist Love’s inflowing grace. The spiritual path’s healing work is to dismantle these self-protective walls, let the membrane between us and Source become utterly permeable.

Life’s inevitabilities – the betrayals, pains, dashed hopes – all conspire to confront our chosen blindness, shatter our frozen agendas so we can truly see what is. Like those Jesus freed from physical and psychological blindness, our impoverished cries finally open us to受ecia vista – to take in this endless holy sight with fresh, unfiltered eyes.

The contemplative mind is healed vision itself – a panoramic, undefended presence that does not divide or deny any part of the field. It sees not through the ego’s fragmented perception but as the Whole beholding itself in infinite mirroring.

This is our human purpose – to recognize our separateness as illusion and live from that nondual vantage. To give up controlling for bewildered surrender into the unified flow of this One Life eternally streaming throughS our viewing.

Then we see not as our small selves dictate, but as things truly are in their primordial interwovenness. Without inner divides or elimination, we enter into undivided intimacy with the Real. We become liberated seeing itself, absorption in real presence at last!
