The Nectar of Clarity

We think of life only in terms of experiences. As long as this is the case, we will never understand life. Our lack of understanding prevents us from knowing and enjoying the safety, peace and freedom of the unchanging side of life. Life is not created, life itself is the creator. There are two sides of life: life's creativity and life's eternal being. Life's creativity exists within life's eternal being. Life's creativity is life's self-expression, self-enjoyment and self-adventure. Life's creativity is experienced as world, body and mind. Life's eternal being is experienced as awareness itself. We don't know life's eternal being because we don't know our awareness. We ignore it and overlook it. Until we begin to live our spiritual life, we are only interested in our world, our relationships, our activities, our possessions, our body and our mind. We are only interested in our experiences. We are only interested in the ever-changing side of life. You are not just a body or a mind. Your true life is your awareness, and your awareness is unchanging and unchangeable. Formless unchanging awareness is life's self-nature and eternal being. Our spiritual life is a process of shifting our sense of self from our body-mind to our unchanging awareness and living from there. As our awareness, we are all one and the same. Awareness is the place of oneness. We all have different experiences, bodies and minds, but everyone's unchanging awareness is life's eternal being. Awareness itself is the place of safety, peace and freedom. Everything else is a passing experience within life's creativity. Life's continuous creativity is magnificent and fascinating, but it is ever-changing. It is life's playground. Life's unchanging awareness is life's home.
