“Who does he think he is?”
“He doesn't think he's anybody.
He knows what he's not
& that's enough for him.”
*
*

When you
open your heart
You're the first
one to get it.
That is your
last chance of
survival.
*
*

It's dead & empty in there
so I talk to my Self.
*
*

What you identify with
will determine if you
survive or not.
*
*

Once you know what you are willing to die for
you'll also know your chances of survival.
*
*

It keeps everything
balanced & in perspective.
*
*

The world, itself, is only an idea based on I AM.
Therefore, what does it say of the things in it?
*
*

Just as in re-incarnation;
if you did your best
why would you bother
to come back?
*
*

Re-incarnation is no use
to the man who burnt the
bridges behind him.
*
*

It's not what
I know
it's who
I AM.
*
*

To discover who you truly are
you have to give up what
you know, the known.
*
*

Searching for Enlightenment
is part & parcel of the dream.
*
*

One who credits the
world with reality
enslaves themselves.
Don't blame others.
*
*

True freedom lies
in denying the
world reality.
*
*

Now you know
what true freedom is,
it's up to you.
*
*

Ignorance is the chain
that shackles you
to the world.
*
*

“It can't be you, you don't fit the mold.”
“Right, you noticed. I'm not Cinderella, you know.”

This is an introduction to the Mercurial World of Guru Om. He will fascinate your mind and bring you to understandings that you may have never even imagined.

  • Äh?? “True freedom lies in denying the world reality.” Äh???
    others say true freedom lies in denying that you yourself are real.
    Oh my God. How can you try to change something to the better that you deem unreal?
    and if you deny your own reality, WHO then seeks freedom if NO ONe is really there?
    See, both ideas are one and the same, and have the same objective.
    Both versions of this error – yes error – lead to a dumbing-down of pain and anger by denying its justification which is that the problems you perceive, or you as the one who perceives them, do not really exist. Opium for the people.

    If you wish to really do something in this world and for this world, you must see the world as REAL and you must trust in your own perceptions including pain and anger and fear and all those dirty human emotions as JUSTIFIED.

    No matter how helpful it may be to temporarily imagine that the world, or you yourself, are unreal
    - to survive impossible ordeals and sufferings Nature creates such feelings spontaneously,
    one calls this phenomenon Derealization and it is also part of some psychiatric disorders, as schizophrenia –
    if you make an ideology out of it you make yourself useless for the world, and you make a fool out of you, literally.

    Jesus Christ our Redeemer didnt resort to I-Do-not-Exist or The-World-is-Unreal ideas even under the whip or on the cross. He could not have fulfilled his task if he had fooled himself this way. I am sure he knew such ideas, they existed in Antiquity too, but he knew better, he knew them to be fallacies. So he did the very opposite!
    Jesus exposed himself to all the painful truths of mortal existence, he did not talk the problems down, he did not resort to any kind of denial, he didnt even lose consciousness on the cross, and He even allowed Himself to be delirious with despair at the end, crying out “My God why hast thou forsaken me?”

    At this moment I imagine that I take you in my arms, Jesus my Elder Brother,
    and I cry with you who was so forsaken
    just to be forsaken WITH US,
    accepting our poor reality as yours
    just to really, physically be with us.

    This loving sadness, this shared pain,
    although there are many states of mind that I would prefer at the moment,
    is better than all false happiness created by denying reality.
