If I manage to be aligned with Consciousness, can I reach Essence?
Try for just a moment not to be aligned with Consciousness…
What else could you be other than Consciousness?
You are not a red zebra located outside of Consciousness, to align yourself with her.
Consciousness is yourself when you stop looking for something, when you stop pretending that you have the freedom to be aligned or misaligned. In your silence, between two thoughts, two perceptions, in deep sleep and at all times—because time appears in Consciousness
—your life is in perfect agreement with Consciousness.
Give up every ideological commentary on your life.
Your knowledge about life prevents you from seeing how perfect it is. There is nothing to change. Your life changes, that is life.
You don’t have to align yourself with anything.
Otherwise you will always feel misaligned.
Wanting to be aligned is fear. Fear of what?
The cause of the fear is imaginary.
At some point you stop shaking. What is showing up is alignment.
When I don’t call it positive or negative anymore, success or failure, what shows up is nothing but myself, my resonance:
there lies true alignment.
It is not the alignment of a subject toward an object, it is a total alignment, without separation.
It is alignment with your body when it hurts or when it works, alignment with life with what it has to offer, with no demand to accomplish, to get anything.
It is extraordinary to listen. That transcends what you are listening to.
Listening is deeply aligning with life.
To be without demand, without expectation, for a moment, is the simplest thing in the world.
It connects you with every being, every world.
There lies symbiosis.
If you try to align with something, whatever it is, what you align with is an ideology:
if you’re a Muslim, you align with sharia or your tarika;
if you’re a Buddhist, you align with the Sangha or the Dharma;
if you are an atheist, you stand behind your concepts…
That kind of alignment has very little value.
You need to align with what shows up in the moment.
But that you cannot do.
It is grace which calls you and which you turn down at every moment because you want to be aligned with the next moment.
Observe the mechanism.
The emotion that arises in me, that is what I need to align with.
There is nothing else.
Let the Moon Be Free.
