Advaitananda Vyasa Goe
You will remember that the other day
I spoke to you about surrender
as a radical condition
for being truly alive.
For being grounded in the WAY,
even though the WAY is Everything.
Today I will round off the manifestation.
Always abandon!
Abandon everything, yet leave nothing.
In this way, you will not distinguish
between phenomena and emptiness.
Emptiness will become manifest through the condition
precise to the Phenomenon of identical nature.
The Thing and Its Reflection — are they truly two?
How many people are there when you look in the mirror?
Is all this difficult?
You only need to be natural,
this is how LIFE does everything.
Let it flow,
do not impose your compartments,
use them with wisdom
by incorporating them into the flow itself.
Do not consider one side or the other as opposites.
By living them, cease to consider them.
Do not seek what you have already found.
Maintain serenity amid the persistent
appearance of impermanence.
Abandonment is not the same as surrender.
“Correct” can never be used,
not under any circumstance.
