《Some Musings》

About Trust:

There is no thing to trust. There is no one to have a trust. The word "trust" is an illusory concept made realistic by mind alone. Basically, "trust" == "mind", both are pure illusion. Only SELF alone is. There's no subject to trust, there's no object to be trusted. But if you want to play the game of trust, that's not a problem either. You can find infinite games to play.

On the flip side, is there a need to eradicate the feeling of "I" who wants to do this or that? No, any effort to suppress or remove the feeling of "I" will only strengthen the illusion of "I", making the "I" really a matter to matter or a problem to solve. NO! "I" is simply a natural feeling just like the wind in the air or the flow in the water or the rain in the sky. The feeling of "I" is not a problem. The problem is to take the "I" seriously, rendering this feeling of "I" as a real I. Illusion is not a problem. Taking illusion as true and real is a problem that can lead to suffering at mental level. There is no need to seek the state of "No I". Simply not taking the feeling of "I" seriously will automatically do the job, transcending all concepts.

Ego? there is no real ego, just a feeling that there is a "me". It's just a seeming. Let's leave it as is. Don't take this "me" too seriously. Effort for trying to suppress or deny this "me" is actually taking it real and equivalent to taking an illusion as real happening.

About Awakening:

"I" will never be awaken. Awakening means the realization that there is not really an "I". Expecting that "I will be awaken" is an illusion by itself.

Realization that "there's not really a me" does not preclude the feeling of "I". The feeling is ok as long as it's not taken seriously. Effort to remove or delete the feeling of "I" is an indication of misunderstanding. Let the feeling of whatever be whatever, never take any feeling as real and seriously. If one study so hard to remove illusion, that's an impossible task. Just like one can't remove dreaming a dream in the evening, you can't remove the natural feeling of "I". Effort to remove ego is exactly how the illusion of ego is strengthened. Don't think that by practicing spirituality will make ego go away. No, you simply shift the regular ego into a spiritual ego. Spiritual ego can be even more insidious. The only way out is no way out: Let it be as is. Ego? no problem! Non ego? no problem! because they are all the same THAT!

There is no need for way out because every where and every when is SELF alone.

THAT is too infinite to be expressed as any concept or idea. Infinity is not in terms of spacial dimensions or longevity of time. Infinity is really about not able to resolve any "thing" to a thing. That's infinite non-resolution.

About Paradox:

Effort may be needed to find out there is really no need for effort, quite a paradox! But the paradox is only a seeming problem to the seeking mind. Once seeing through the futility of mind then the paradox is no longer a paradox, it's no longer a "problem" to resolve. So, effort or no effort, paradox or no paradox, conflict or no conflict, who cares? There is simply no such "who" to even care about it. Of course, "caring about it" is not a problem either.

There is ONLY SEEMING effort, but no real effort by someone. No denying that at mental level there is a "one" that feels he has done effort. Just like in a dream the dreaming character feels that he was doing something, but actually there is no "him" and no "his doing", although in feeling texture there SEEMS to be a doing. So, what a nice paradox!

關於相信：

沒有東西可以相信的。也沒有“人”可以去相信。 “相信”一詞是一個虛幻的概念，“相信”這個概念僅憑思想想象而做實的。基本上，“相信” ==“思想（心）”，兩者都是純粹的幻想。隻有SELF孤在。沒有發出“相信”的主觀，沒有被相信的對象。但是，如果您想玩相信遊戲，那也不是問題。您可以找到無限的相信遊戲玩。你可以一樣一樣一樣“東西“相信下去，每樣“東西”都看似是真實的，遊戲就是這樣玩的。

另一方麵，是否有必要根除想要這樣做的“我”的感覺？不需要，任何抑製或消除“我”的感覺的努力隻會增強“我”的錯覺，使“我”這個感覺真的無中生有地變成了要解決的問題了。沒有！ “我”隻是一種自然的感覺，就像空氣中的風或水中的水流或天空中的雨水一樣。感覺上的“我”不是問題。真正的問題是把“我”感覺當成是真的我了。幻覺不是問題。將幻覺視為真實或實在的才是一個問題，這樣的當真可能導致精神上的痛苦。無需尋求“無我”的狀態。隻需不認真對待“我”的感覺，那麽這種態度本身就會自動自發地導致完美了。

自我（EGO）？沒有真正的個體分離的自我，隻是有一種“我”的感覺。這個感覺隻是一個貌似。讓我們是怎樣就怎樣吧。不要太在意這個“我”感覺。試圖壓製或否認這個“我”感覺的努力實際上是將其視為真實，並且等同於將幻覺視為真實的發生。

關於覺醒：

“我”永遠不會被覺醒。覺醒意味著發現實際上並沒有一個“我”。期待“我會喚醒”本身就是一種幻想。

發現“沒有一個真正的我”並不排除在感覺上有“我”的感覺。隻要不認真對待就可以了。努力消除或刪除“我”的感覺是一種誤解的跡象。把感覺僅僅當成是感覺吧，切勿將任何感覺視為真實或實在的。如果你認真研究如何消除幻想，那將是不可能的任務。就像無法消除晚上做夢一樣，您也無法消除有“我”這個自然感覺。消除“我”感覺的努力正是加強“我”幻覺的方式，適得其反。不要以為修行會使“我”感覺消失。不，您隻是將常規的“我”感覺轉變為精神上的“我”感覺。精神上“我”感覺，或稱為宗教上的“我”，可能比普通的“我”感覺更加陰險，這個精神上的“我”的欲望就是“我要覺悟”，這個欲望和世俗的“我要致富”這樣的欲望是沒有本質差別的。唯一的出路就是發現沒有出路，也不需要出路：保持原樣，是怎樣就是怎樣。

不需要出路，因為每個地方和每個時間都是同一無二SELF，同一完美。

“我“？ EGO？沒問題！“無我”？也沒問題！因為它們都是一樣的！是同一個無限的‘它’（THAT）。‘它’（THAT）實在太無限了，不可歸納於“我”或“無我”或“既有我也無我”。《無限》可不是大小上的無限，而是無限的無法確定意義上的無限。甚至連“無限”這個概念本身都無法確定是成立的，你隻能“啊”的一聲，還能說什麽呢？

關於悖論：

起初，可能需要付出努力才能發現實際上並不需要付出任何努力，這個情況很自相矛盾！但是，矛盾對尋求者來說隻是一個看似的問題。一旦看透了心靈的徒勞或空性，那麽悖論就不再是悖論了，它不再是要解決的“問題”了。那麽，努力或沒有努力，悖論或沒有悖論，衝突或沒有衝突，還有“誰“在乎呢？根本沒有這樣的“誰”來關心這些經驗中感覺上的差異。當然，如果你要“關心”這些，和這些看似的悖論玩遊戲，也不是問題，可以無止境地玩下去。

隻是看似好像有努力，而沒有任何“人”作出真正的努力。無可否認，在心理層麵上，有一個“人”覺得他在努力。這個情況就像在夢中，夢中的角色總是覺得自己在做某件事，但實際上沒有“他”也沒有“他在做”也沒有“事情”，盡管在感覺質感方麵看似都有，看似確實在做，看似確實有主觀在努力，看似確實有客觀的努力對象，但這些僅僅是《看似》而已，不是真的。所以，這是一個很好的悖論！享受悖論吧！
