What is here? What is really here? Is it a world with ever-changing experiences that you experience through a limited form? This poem points the way to Reality.
You can notice that, often, you get carried away in the unfolding experiences, without any awareness of the same. Why does this happen? Come and find why this veiling happens, and what this veil is, and its real nature. An excerpt from the book, “Awaken: An Experiential Exploration of Enlightenment.”
Different traditions have provided authentic pointers to Truth. Yet, this has been lost in the web of beliefs and dogmas. Even so, the veil that separates us from Truth can be parted. Find out how to be free of the grip of veiling.
Part of the Zen tradition, Koans are meant to precipitate Enlightenment. The Shadow of the Whip is a beautiful Koan, that brings the essence of the Truth to the fore. Come with an open mind, and unburdened heart, and be present to this opportunity to Awaken.
Our experience of the world, of life, is shaped by our self-image. We see the world as we are. This being so, how does one approach and open the door to Enlightenment?
Truth is always present, here, now. It appears to be obscured by a veil. Surrender is the way of letting go of this sense of separation that veils Truth.
What does it mean to Awaken? Reality is One without a second. It feels like peace-love-happiness without opposites. Your sense of separation veils this Reality. Awakening is to wake from the dream of veiled experiences, to the Reality that is, as it is, unchanging.
