if we can't claim thoughts as our own then what's the point of understanding all this? what's the point of asking how to notice? what's the point of a goal? none of it matters once you realise the mind is just another appearance. you don't need to understand anything. if you have doubts that's okay. if you are confused that's okay too.

you are not the person in the dream, you are the space in which the dream unfolds. so seeking, searching, difficulty, worries- none of it matters. nor will it affect realisation/ seeking. that's why there is no process. no stages. because WHO is doing to get WHAT?

see it all now. taste it now. happiness or sadness. perfect understanding or confusion. everything is already perfect now. you are only thinking that it isn't.

knowing is not a feeling, a state or a thought. you don't remember yourself through an effect of the self. only self knows self. only awareness can be directly aware of itself. see that.

In a typical day, you perceive, engage, and act in a world that feels vivid and undeniable. You might work, talk with friends, or feel deeply about something you’ve experienced. Everything seems real and solid. Then, at night, you lie down to sleep.

What happens to everything you perceived and engaged with during the day? Where does it all go? The world you were immersed in—your worries, plans, interactions—seem to vanish entirely. The room you're in, the bed you're lying on, even "you," as the experiencer of the day, all fade into nothing.

When you seemingly "wake up" in the morning, the world reappears. But does it reappear from anywhere? Does it arrive with a physical solidity that you can point to, or does it simply arise, like a hologram projected from nowhere?

Consider the dream again. At night, in a dream, another world appears—complete with people, places, sensations, and events. This dream feels just as vivid as the waking world. But when the dream ends, where does that world go? The same question applies to the waking state: when you sleep, where does the waking world go? When you wake up, where does it come from?

This waking life, too, arises as if from nothing. Like a hologram, it appears within “Awareness,” yet Awareness itself remains untouched, unaltered, and always present. The images, sounds, and forms appear, but they hold no actual substance. They are like reflections in a mirror—not separate from the mirror but never altering its essence.

Without "Awareness, Presence, Beingness", would you even know of "this"?

So, if the waking world arises in the same way as a dream—out of nothing, as nothing, and into nothing—what is it, really? It’s not “out there,” just as last night’s dream wasn’t “out there.” It’s all happening within this moment of Awareness. And that "Awareness" is what you truly are. Everything else? It’s no different from a hologram: appearing and vanishing.

[unknowable-known]

Simply look at your experience and realize that you are completely clueless of the nature of what anything actually is.

How is anything appearing? How is your field of vision full of light? How is your body coming into being? How is anything? What is anything? What is light? What is the matter?

What is consciousness? All these questions are absurd because there is no answer!

This that is here is as it is!

Even that saying is too much saying! Upon realization that turns out to be a very powerful fact and a very liberating fact. With such discovery you realize that you are not what you thought yourself to be. You realize that you were never diminished, little and powerless as you imagined yourself to be.

You are actually inconceivable and infinite openness that is beyond space and time. What you actually are - is so obvious that you don't need to hold it as a principle of a theory or philosophy. You simply look and see!

You cannot not-noticing

• Being_is_IT / Twitter

Q: I find that when I notice the minds function, I start to try to grasp for some sort of conclusion, such as “this is the mind” “this is feeling”. I find that I cannot notice without some conclusion.

A: Do you notice the narrative "this is the Mind"? Yes, you do. Do you notice the narrative "this is a feeling"? Yes, you do. Do you notice the narrative "I feel sad"? Yes, you do. Do you notice the narrative "I am frustrated that I cannot notice without reaching a certain conclusion"? Yes, you do. Congratulation! You are very good at noticing. So, it is not possible to stop noticing because even "not-noticing" is being noticed.

Your inner child exists now , literally

I was just thinking about the concept of the inner child and how people often see it as something tied to their past, a part of themselves they carry within. But in terms of infinite consciousness and non duality everything exists now right ?

Which means the inner child is also not just a memory or a distant version of you. The younger version of you LITERALLY exists in this very moment too.

Whenever you think of the past or your memories, you’re connecting to that version, not recalling something that’s “gone.”

When you “heal your inner child,” you’re not healing the past. You’re healing a younger part of you that is still right here with you.

Hello I hope you’re having a good day

Please ignore this ask if you don’t want to respond to it.

I don’t know why I seem to be stuck in this loop of seeking and searching in ND. It seems like I keep on running in search of methods to get my desires which is an empty appearance anyway. It seems I’m in this loop of giving up and then trying again and again and again and I’m tired, I go within and I look and I see that I was never truly affected, but I get sucked in the illusory appearance of “I” again and then the cycle repeats itself. I understand that this ask is contradictory in itself. I genuinely don’t know what to do. it feels so much like unnecessary suffering that I keep putting myself through despite wanting out. I want to give up but also that in itself is another illusory appearance is it not? I have no idea where I’m going with this but that’s the cycle I notice myself being in time and time again and I’m just tired.

“Trying to get my desires which is an empty appearance anyway”

“I go within and I look and I see that I was never truly affected”

“I get sucked in the illusory appearance of “I” again and again”

“I understand that this ask is contradictory in itself”

Do you really understand what you say? Or are you just saying them?

Towards the ending I think you started to truly realize the absurdity of your question

Keep doing that, keep seeing 🫶

Running in Circles, Searching for What?

Readers often describe feeling trapped in a loop: searching, chasing, doing more to get somewhere. Hoping for progress, proof, or an improvement that justifies all the effort. But here’s the real question:

Has it brought you anywhere?

Take a moment. How long have you been seeking? Months? Years? Have you "found" anything, or is it just more seeking, more questions, more frustration? You run in circles, chasing shadows, hoping the next practice, insight, or realization will be "it."

It’s not wrong to feel this way, but consider this: the very act of searching implies you think there’s something missing—something you lack that needs to be attained. But what if the assumption itself is flawed? What if the one seeking is the very illusion you’re trying to unpack?

Let’s step back and look at the nature of a "dream".

When "you" seem to "dream" at night, no matter what the "dream" looks like—whether it’s exciting, terrifying, or mundane—"who/what" is always "present"? Who is there in every "dream"? And how do you even know it’s a "dream"? You can feel sensations arising, hear the sounds, and even "think" within the "dream". Sounds familiar, no?

Now look deeper: where is the dream coming from? What gives it its apparent existence? When the dream ends, where does it go? And in those moments of so-called deep sleep, when you say, "I didn’t dream at all," how do you know that gap was even there? What remains?

In every dream, there’s an undeniable Knowing—a "presence" that holds it all, isn't there? The dream is fleeting, but the Knowing of it isn’t. It’s there whether the dream is "vivid", "faint", or "absent" altogether. And that same knowing is "present" now, reading these words, isn't it? You don't have to use any thoughts to notice.

So.. what are you really searching for? The next “aha” moment? A tangible shift? Something to confirm, “Yes, now I’ve got it”? But who would "get it"?

All there is, is this—this effortless "awareness" in which everything arises and disappears.

All seeking starts to dissolve when you see that what you’re looking for isn’t "out there." It’s the same presence that’s already aware of the seeking, the frustration, and the loop itself. Just like in a dream, you’re chasing answers without realizing you’re the space in which the entire dream unfolds.

Here’s the thing: I can tell you this over and over again, and I can write endless words about it, but at the end of the day, you have to see it. Nothing I say or anyone else says will make it clearer to you than seeing it directly.

Think of it like this: imagine I tell you about the taste of a "Tsampa" (tibetan foodstuff). Let me try to describe it—Tsampa has a simple, earthy taste—kind of nutty and a little smoky because it’s made from roasted barley. It’s pretty dry on its own, but when you mix it with butter tea (bo cha) or milk (or water), it turns into a creamy porrdige that’s super satisfying.

Do you now know how it tastes based off of this short description? No matter how much anyone tries to describe it, you wouldn’t really know what it’s like until you actually try it yourself. You might feel like you “get it,” but until you actually taste Tsampa (-Porridge) for yourself, it’s all just words. The actual direct experience is yours to have, and words will never compare to it.

It’s the same here. Look at the loop you feel stuck in. Look at the dreamlike nature of every experience. Look at what’s behind the looking itself. And notice: the seeking, the searching, and even the apparent struggle—what is all of it arising in?

The dream at night is your perfect clue. Who’s been there in every dream, in every scene, in every story in and out of it? Who’s the constant presence beneath it all? If you truly see that, will there be any questions left?

You are infinitely more than and bigger than and different than being consciousness

It looks like every teacher is talking about "you are consciousness" as if consciousness is the ultimate state to be striving for. Some teachers are talking about the idea of 'awareness' as if awareness is higher than consciousness. Please notice that no matter how you call it, the idea of 'consciousness ' or the idea of 'awareness' are only concepts formulated by the Mind.

The idea of 'awareness' is simply pointing to the ability of discernment which is beyond being conscious. Is there really such a thing called 'consciousness'? Other than a concept formulated by the Mind, there is no such a thing called 'consciousness' to be determined. The Mind can make conceptual assumptions all it wants, but the Actuality is not able to be pinned down by the Mind.

As infinite Radiant energy yourself, you are beyond anything you can describe. You are infinitely beyond consciousness. You have ultimate ability of discernment. The ability of discernment is the ability to discern yourself while never departing from yourself an iota. Just like you are by default infinite Radiant energy yourself, the ability of discernment is innate. It means that you don't need to learn the ability to discern, you are it already.

For example, you can discern the appearance of 'consciousness' and you can discern the disappearance of 'consciousness'. However, the Mind would assume the appearance of 'consciousness' as something called 'birth of 'me' or 'me' waking up from a 'coma'. Of course, you are able to discern the disappearance of 'consciousness' and the Mind would mystify it as something called 'my death' or 'me falling into a state of coma'.

There is never a 'me' getting born or waking up. What happens is a discernment of your own morphing of energetic patterns. When you start to dream, you dream about a character called 'me' walking around in a world called 'dream world'.

Does it mean that an actual person called 'me' is being born in a world called 'dream world'? No, what happens is a discernment of your own morphing of energetic patterns.

Morphing of energetic patterns is like morphing of holographic patterns in a laser light show, there is no actual change whatsoever, there only seems like having a lot changes. You as infinite Radiant energy yourself seem to undergo an infinite number of apparent changes but never depart from yourself a tiny bit.

Is consciousness actually consciousness? Not really. The idea of consciousness is just a simplified and partial abstraction assumed by the logical Mind. Other than assumptions, we don't actually know what this is. For example, scientists seem to have tons of explanations for the phenomenon called dreaming, but no one actually knows what dreaming is.

I don't attempt to define what consciousness is or what dreaming is. All I can say is that they are magical energetic patterns of infinite Radiance, which is YOURSELF.

Is 'energetic patterns' indeed such a thing called energetic patterns? Not really, but as a convenience for expressing myself, I choose to use such a concept for the sake of pointing.

Of course, you can keenly discern all kinds of morphing of your own energetic patterns. You don't have to learn it; your ability of discernment is innate and not acquired.

You can innately discern the apparent coming and going of 'consiousness'.

You can innately discern the apparent coming and going of thoughts.

You can innately discern the apparent coming and going of emotions.

But you are never confined by consciousness, thoughts or emotions just like dreaming energy is not confined by whatever appears in a dream story.

You will never be able to pin down what 'consciousness' is or what 'thought' is or what emotion is.

What is noticing? Noticing is just a different way to say discerning. Discernment is not analysis or figuring out. Discernment is simply discerning the morphing of energetic patterns without analyzing them or defining what they are.

Don't worry about death. You as infinite Radiant energy has no such a thing called birth or death. All you can do is inherently discern your own energetic patterns. What you call 'birth' is not actually birth. What you call 'death' is not actually death. Even 'energetic patterns' are not actually energetic patterns. Any attempt to pin down what they are will not be successful.

You don't really need the help of the Mind to know yourself. You are infinitely intelligent energy yourself. The functioning of the Mind is just an energetic effect of yourself.

Please keep noticing or discerning. There will be a knowing that will come to you automatically without the help of the Mind. You are infinitely more intelligent than the functioning of the Mind.

You don't need to comprehend yourself. But you will know yourself without comprehension.

Why do you need to be “capable of doing something”?

• Being_is_IT / Twitter

Reader: I had a disagreement with my family today. We didn’t have an argument, but I struggled for a long time. Negative emotions and physical discomfort appeared at the same time. I told myself to let go of illusions and not take them seriously. But sometimes the plot is too intense and I find it hard not to take it seriously. While I am aware of the emotions and physical feelings, I always have a subtle urge to stop and change the emotions. Although I see it, I am not capable of doing anything about it. Please help me, sir.

BEINGIS: When you watch a play, you sit in the front row of the stage and watch it comfortably. You see the "disagreement with family members and inner struggles" and you see "overly intense plots" in the play. All these commotions that seem to be playing on stage do not affect your comfort in sitting in the chair and watching the play. The noticing we talk about in advanced yoga is a bit like sitting in the front row of the stage and watch a play. Although it seems that the plot is intense, realistic and having zero distance to you, it's just a trivial play and it has nothing to do with you. You are not actually in the plot. You are only watching a play, why do you have to be "capable of doing anything"? You just need to watch, you don't really own everything you see in the play.
