Listen to the loaded phrases being expressed through the lineage which communicate much more than the spoken words. Contemplate on phrases like “separative consciousness”, “unitive awareness”, “perception”,“conceptualization”, “existence”, “experience”, “ideas”, “insight” , “knowledge”, “wisdom”, “mind”, “no-mind”, “I-ness”, “you-ness”, “mindlessness”, “discontinuity in thought”, “choicelessness”, “guest-like attitude”, “ witness-like attitude”, “attitude of ending and not cultivating opposites”, “learning and not just borrowing beliefs”, “intellect”, “intelligence”, “centripetal process”, “centrifugal process”, “meditation without meditator”, “deconditioning”, “concentration”, “ focussing yet being aware of the whole”, “aloneness”, “loneliness”, “etic truth”, “emic truth” and so on.
You hear all this and more during pre-initiation gatherings, initiation-ceremonies, review meetings in various contexts and situations, but you soon forget. Please don’t forget. Hold on to these phrases in every activity and relationship. Carry them like jewels. There is something very special about this holding, which is not obsession or inhibition. It is not settling down to convenient concepts/ideas. These are not dead things of a mediocre brain. It is a very live-process. Absorb these phrases in your blood and touch the most sacred through Kriya practice.
