Chapter One

At This Very Moment

At this very moment, you are experiencing either your true Identity or your false ego identity, which manifest as either peace or conflict, non-dual or dual. When you operate from duality you lack peace, you are anxious, upset, controlling, or afraid, you feel less then perfect love toward all beings. When you operate from a non-dual state you are at peace, content, present, and you feel wide-open, expansive love for all beings. The fullness of your Spirit flows through you and each moment-to-moment creative expression of your aliveness is immersed with light, love, and ecstasy. The experience of yourself as the divine embodiment of perfect love and luminosity right now is real and is based on oneness. The experience of yourself as a separate defined personality with opinions, reactions, beliefs, flaws, and limitations is a false ego identity rooted in judgment, past conditioning, duality, fear, and based on an illusionary false belief in separation.

When you identify yourself with the thought system of duality the impact is the suffering described in the concepts of separation discussed throughout this book. Of course there are many forms of suffering not mentioned in this book, however all forms of suffering have the same one source, which is the judgment within our mind that we are separate and flawed. When you know the truth of who you are as pure infinite divine love, wholly perfect, and eternally one with and the same as your Divine Creator, the impact is a whole new reality of perfect love and endless joy. Don't get attached to the words in this book, because we are guiding you into an experience beyond mind and definition into no mind, a state of pure oneness.

When your experience becomes one of deep presence of being your divine eternal Self, in that moment you are spiritually free. You literally become peace eternal, total freedom, indescribable bliss. You are in your natural state, which is your true essence, your undefined timeless being. You become the divine presence that is the core truth of who you eternally are. You become one with all that is true. You are pure God awareness and ever-expansive aliveness. You may access this state at this very moment, it is always available; it is who you are.

On the other hand, the instant judgment enters the mind and presence disappears, an illusionary dream world of conflict appears. Your life is lived through the false context of separation and duality, which isn't life at all. Your constant agenda is to survive the constant illusionary threats of fear, guilt, and scarcity. You have forgotten who you are. The illusion of separation is neither bad nor wrong; however, the outcome of living in duality unconsciousness is always conflict and suffering.

The purpose of this book is to lead you out of the dream of separation into a sustained experience of being your divine eternal Self, dwelling eternally in the ecstatic, all-loving reality of oneness; Heaven. The purpose of this book is to awaken you to the changeless, infinite, eternal, timeless, boundless enlightenment of who you truly are; the infinite spacious divine being that is your original core essence and true nature. The purpose of this book is to awaken you to an entirely new paradigm beyond time, space, form and definition; the real, permanent, infinite, ever joyous world you have never truly left. To know that within you is the holiness of God, that it is you, and to allow that divine power to fully infuse each present moment of your life. The goal is to return to the Absolute, that you wholly know and be your eternal Divine Self, knowing God and Self as one. To be immersed and one with the infinite sacred ecstasy of God's eternal being, so that you may be in the world, yet not of it.

Once this book has done its job it will become as useless as a map to a familiar destination. Don't get attached to the map. The map that is this book is not the goal. We will use this time-bound symbol merely to point the way out of time. We will use definition merely to lead you out of the conceptual, limited world of definition and into your timeless, unlimited, undefined, free Ecstatic Self.

To write about spiritual awakening is impossible. When the infinite, transcendent, formless, eternal state of Reality is reduced to a structure the limited mind can understand and define, it loses its pure, boundless, abstract, eternal essence....
