The path to spiritual awakening really does not have to be complicated.  You simply, with an open mind find the practices that you experience a greater awakening into bliss and you practice them.

You should try everything; from yoga breathing exercises, to mantra, to chanting to various methods of meditation and everything in between.  It can be as easy as listening the the Infinite Sky Spritual Awakening CD and feeling the shaktipat/bliss that the music emits.  And when you find practices that help awaken the divine bliss that is beyond all beliefs and ideas then you follow those practices.  You give yourself whole heartedly to them.

Bliss not in the sense of emotion, but the vibration/sensation of divine bliss that is beyond all thoughts and emotion.

Perhaps at first when begin practicing meditation you do not feel bliss, perhaps at first it is difficult, it is challenging, it is uncomfortable.  But somewhere in sticking with it, you might recognize something profound happening, something very subtle awakening inside you that attracts you and that attraction will lead you to bliss.

And once you find ways to awaken the divine bliss you are home free.  Then the door is open to your spiritual awakening.

Whether you find it in repeating the name of a Guru, repeating a mantra, breathing a certain way, practicing a certain meditation technique, no matter what it is if it awakens the bliss then all the teachings will not matter.  All of the different philosophies and spiritual debates will become obsolete.   The bliss itself leads you to spiritual awakening.

When you let yourself fall into that bliss, then all of your problems and worries will no longer affect you in the same way.  Because you have found a method to awaken divine bliss and that bliss transcends everything.  That bliss takes you beyond yourself into something that cannot be described in words.

It frees you from yourself, it frees you from your worries.  Not that you will no longer have worries and problems once you have a spiritual awakening, all of those remain.  Yet in being in that bliss, you experience yourself beyond them.  You experience a much bigger reality, a limitless reality that is completely free from conflict.

And simply by being in that bliss, everything gets done, everything gets taken care of. It nurtures you and loves you like no person ever can.

But don’t give it halfway. Don’t give your attention a back door to slip away back into doubts and intellectual debate.  You have to be willing to let go of every thought that arises in meditation.

So don’t go halfway, don’t allow yourself to get lost in thinking and analysis.  Rather, give yourself fully to your spiritual practice until there is nothing left to give; until even the spiritual practice goes.  Even the bliss may go.

And then there is only what is; the simplicity of the moment. And that is even more delightful than the bliss.  And that is spiritual awakening.

The easiest way to spiritual awakening is through receiving Kundalini Shaktipat, the enlightened energy vibration given to you by a fully enlightened guru.  Just by receiving this Kundalini Shakti, you experience divine bliss and this bliss leads you to spiritual awakening.

You can also receive this same Kundalini Shakti through listening to a unique Kundalini Awakening CD.  Simply by listening to a unique meditation CD, Kundalini Shakti is awakened in you and you experience bliss.  It is this simple.

You can listen to free samples of this Kundalini Shakti music and experience the bliss for yourself by visiting the Kundalini Awakening Website.

What are your thoughts about the 2012 predictions?

Answer From Kip:

What can truthfully said about 2012 predictions?  Whether you believe in the 2012 predictions that we’re all going to get enlightened, the earth is going to swallow us up in earthquakes or you believe nothing will happen; all of this amounts to the same thing.  They are all beliefs.  Whether you believe in the 2012 predictions or you disbelieve it, it all amounts to beliefs, to ideas that you make real.

In truth, we have no idea what may or may not happen.  We have no idea what will happen in a minute from now, an hour from now.  We do not know what happens when we die, we do not actually know much of anything.  And if you can rest in this not knowing, in the acceptance of not knowing, then you get to the purity of what is here, the essence of what is here.

Where in if you are lost in predictions of what may or may not happen in 2012, you are lost in ideas, you are locked in your mind.  You have separated yourself from this moment by believing you know something.

The  2012 predictions are just another way you avoid this moment, you avoid experiencing life.  Because you live in the mind, you can only at best experience the mind’s interpretation of this moment.  And for the most part you are not even experiencing that.  Because your mind is not on this moment, it is on the 2012 predictions, it is on what you will do tonight, what happened to you an hour ago.

So you see by letting your attention be lost in thinking, you do not experience life.  Even in saying this the mind is interpreting it, it already knows it, understands it and has a judgment on that understanding.  The mind is just adding to its collection of noise.

So what happens if you allow the noise to be as it is but let your attention rest underneath the noise.  We don’t want to stop thinking, control thinking, we want to get to the essence of thought.  To experience what thought really is.  To allow it to be completely and watch it, watch the movement of it rather than the content of it, to feel the sensation of it rather than be lost in the interpretation of it.

Because in letting our attention fall into this moment, all of the content dissolves back into what is really here.  You begin to experience the flow of energy that is thought. And the nature of this flow is bliss, is peace.

Then the idea of 2012 predictions not only seems silly, it seems like a waste of time.  You see it only hurts you to be lost in more so called “spiritual” ideas.  Like when you were young and thought it was so much fun to get drunk.  You went to great lengths to get drunk.  Then when you grow up, you realize what a waste of time it is to get drunk, how much it actually hurts your body, how much it hurts you and those around you.

Getting lost in more beliefs is the same.  It just adds to the stress, it takes you further away from feeling alive, from experiencing the truth, that is you.

That is the essence of what is already here.  It is in the thinking, it is in the breathing, it is in the existing right here and now.  You do not need to get anything or change anything, you simply have to let go of being distracted by your thinking and simply notice what is happening in this moment.

And please note, the easiest and most effective way to awaken to what is truly here is through Shaktipat.  Usually you receive Shaktipat. by sitting with a fully enlightened teacher but you can also experience it through listening to some very unique meditation music that emits Shaktipat.  You can listen to free samples of this Shaktipat Music by visiting the Spiritual Awakening Website.

If you witness
this moment,
without attachment
you will see
everything is moving
by itself.

Yet everything is moving
within consciousness,
which is motionless;

vast and motionless.

And this movement
of phenomena
that happens
within consciousness
is bliss.

The experience of it
is bliss.

If you turn away
from consciousness
and get caught up in the movement,
then its a roller coaster ride
of pleasure and pain,
stress and conflict.

But if you remain
in stillness
watching
and feeling the movement
arising in this moment
then all is bliss.

And this moment
is complete in itself.

It cannot be otherwise.

Blessings,

Kip”

Please Note: The easiest and most effective
way to awaken yourself to bliss
is to simply play the
Infinite Sky or Calling CDs,

to sit with your eyes closed
and to allow the energy
(call it shakti or grace)
of the music to awaken you
into your natural state
of unconditional peace.

It is not the ‘everything’
that is important,
it is the is-ness itself
that is the key.

The mind is always
caught up in the content.

But awareness
only experiences the essence.

Whether there is anger
or a thought
of a chocolate brownie
or a heavy rain outside.

All of these things
are of the same energy.

They exist out of
life itself,
the one energy
that is animating everything.

And even in saying this
the mind is agreeing
or disagreeing.

The mind is relating
to the words as content.

It is trying to comprehend
something that
cannot really be put in words
in the first place.

All the words can really do
is point
and it is up to
you whether you give
your attention
to where the words are
pointing

or you get caught up
in the content
of the words.

And if you give
your attention
to where the words are pointing,
then you move beyond words;
you move beyond content
and rest in that
which cannot really be described.

So there is this shift that
needs to happen,
to move beyond trying
to experience things with the
intellect or emotion
to experiencing what is here
beyond intellect and emotion.

To realizing
the is-ness
of everything.

It is not that thinking
has to stop,
it is that you stop
being transfixed
by the content
of the thinking
and realize
that which is always
animating the content,

that which is
making the content
possible in the first place.

The conscious
ever flowing energy
that is bliss itself.

Blessings,

Kip”

The very trying to be happy
increases your stress.

Is happiness really better
than another emotion?

Is it better than anger?
Is it better than no emotion
at all?

These are the lies
that have been told to you,
that the mind keeps
telling you are real.

Lets say you get a raise,
or a pretty woman/man
smiles at you;
that makes you happy.

Endorphins are released
and for a short period of time
you feel on top of the world
there is excitement.

And then after that wears off,
like an addict,
you are looking for the next
excitement, the next happiness.

And that is suffering.

Now, say a bird poops on your head.
Does that make you happy?

Do you try to be happy
when a bird poops on your head?

Do you try to convince yourself
it is good luck or some other nonsense
to try and suppress
what you are really feeling?

Unless you like that sort of thing,
it doesn’t make you happy.

There might be anger,
there might be embarrassment.

Whatever is there
if you feel it,
if you give your complete
attention to that feeling,
to that experience,

then you fall into what is there
underneath it,
you rest in what the whole
experience has emerged
out of and held in
and that is bliss.

You experience bliss.

You experience the same
bliss in happiness, sadness
anger, loneliness, laughter.

It is the underlying current
that lights up all emotion.

And it is not that there is a ‘you’
that can be blissful all the time.
You give up this you
that tries to make something
to be a certain way.

You fall through the idea
of this separate you
into that which is underneath it.

And this happens
by letting your attention
fall into this moment.

By having either the discipline
or the love
to keep your attention here
instead of looking for the next
pay off, the next pleasure that can
get you through another minute
of excruciating existence.

And make no mistake about it,
that is how the mind
sees this moment.

It is desperate
to avoid this moment.

But the moment you allow yourself
to experience this excruciating existence,
there is freedom,
you experience the essence of life
which is bliss.

And if you make
this underlying current
your focus
then you will experience the peace
that is the essence of all experience.

It doesn’t take you out of experience
but rather right through it
into the unfathomable depth
of this moment.

Blessings,

Kip”

You do not need to get
rid of negativity, or insecurity.
 
You do not need to get rid
of thinking or anything at all.
 
The simple act of observing
what is here,
of consciously accepting
and watching your experience
in this moment
is all that is needed.

Just by observing
your experience in this moment
you transcend it.
 
You transcend the duality
of good and bad,
right and wrong
and enter into
the essence of this moment
that has no opposite.
 
You enter into peace
that has no opposite,
silence that has no opposite,
love that has no opposite.
 
Both war and peace
are contained in this peace.
Both noise and silence
are contained in this silence.
 
The essence of everything
you love and hate about yourself
is made out of the same bliss.
 
Like those beautiful ice
sculptures.
 
It does not matter if the sculptor
makes a demon or an angel,
it is still made of the same water.
 
It is all made out of the same peace.
 
And so when you fall into
this essence,
everything that rests in this nondual space
gets healed, gets nurtured,
gets returned not to its opposite
but to its essence.
 
You realize the essence
of everything is peace.

All of this comes
from simple observation.
 
By observing what is here
without any involvement
without any control.

Attention is everything.
Awareness is everything.

It is the doorway to
unconditional bliss and freedom.
 
Blessings,

One reason why people never realize enlightenment is that
most people are not living spirituality
they are living spiritual pretense.

Human beings by nature do not like themselves.  It is not their fault, it is their conditioning. 

Somewhere along the line, everyone of us is painted an image by our family, media and society of the perfect person we are supposed to be. And we realize we are not anything like that perfect person. 

And thus starts the journey of self hatred where we try and mould ourselves into this perfect person.

So when we enter a spiritual path, we take on the teaching as “this is how I should be” and according to whatever path or organization we join, we become that, we paint a mask on ourselves according to how we believe we should be.

We see how others act and we act the same to fit in and feel accepted.

The teacher says “Gratitude helps deepen your awareness” and sure enough all of the students of that teacher run around saying how grateful they are.

If you are watching this happen as an outsider,  it is creepy.  It looks as though they are being brainwashed.  But there is no brainwashing happenning on the outside, only on the inside do people try and become who they think they are supposed to be.

They get an image in their mind of how a spiritual person should act and they act it out.  They get an image of how they should feel so they convince themselves they feel it.

One person sees golden balls and then everyone related to that person starts seeing golden balls.

One person laughs and everyone else starts laughing.

Whatever the teacher and culture around that teacher, everyone pretends to be that.  Like a constant halloween, people put on their spiritual clothes and mask and dance around trying to convince themselves and everyone else this is who they are. 

Because for all of us, if we are ever lucky enough to be still enough to truly see ourselves in this moment, we have a breakdown. Because suddenly we are looking at all of the things we have been avoiding all of our lives. 

And so most simply try and act out who they think they should be in order to feel accepted, in order to feel loved.

And this is the suffering.

So the key is to be still enough to see yourself in this moment and accept yourself as you are in this moment. 

But you can only accept yourself as you are if you are honest about how you are. 

Be honest:

What is here in this moment?  What is your experience in this moment?  It is not to define it, it is to simply notice it, to experience it.  To be completely here with what is.

It is in this, in seeing all of the insanity that is here and accepting yourself as you are, that you see all of it exists on it’s own.

All of these thoughts and emotions and physicallity are all happening on their own yet you remain detached and aware.  You remain free of all of it as unconditional peace.

Then true love begins to grow in your heart.  You no longer care to put on an act.  You no longer care to try and be accepted by others.  Because there is already self acceptance.  And in that self acceptance, there is self transcendence. 

You have come to terms with what is here and found freedom from it.

So honesty is the key to realizing enlightenment.  You do not realize enlightenment through pretending.  You realize enlightenment through being with what is in this moment.  At first that may be thoughts and emotions.  But once acceptance is there, you see beyond this, you see what you are unconditionally, and that cannot be defined, only experienced.

When you are in this state, you have no personal identity, you rest as awareness itself.   

How it begins: 

Once you are established in being a witness to your thoughts, the thoughts change.  Your thoughts started off as personal thoughts, what you have to do, what you want to do, what you are worried about, what happened in your past etc.  You also think linear.  One thought leads to another and to another. 

But as you enter witness consciousness, the thoughts become random, they are no longer personal.  They arise and disappear independently of each other.  You can see pictures or have dreams/visions of things you have never seen before, that cannot even be explained in words.  You can experience yourself as a completely different person in a completely different place, yet still you remain a witness to it, there is not identification with it.  Almost as though you can hover above the vision without every becoming it.   When you dream at night, you become a part of the dream, you are in it, but in this state of Samadhi, you are simply watching it like watching a movie. 

The greatest part of Salvikalpa Samadhi is that your attachment to your identity and thoughts are broken for the period of time you remain in Samadhi.  It is as thought the huge weight of who you believe yourself to be is taken away.  You have no name, no physical boundaries, no weight, no problems.  All worries, desires, judgments and attachments are gone.  This brings incredible peace and bliss.  Like being in a deep state of blissful sleep yet fully conscious.  If you can remain a witness to these visions/dreams, you disappear deeper and deeper into consciousness itself.  Thoughts can appear slower, less often and there can be long gaps of utter silence.  Consciousness like the sun, burning brighter and brighter. In this state, the bliss that floods every cell of your being is incredible.  It is as though every cell of your energetic body (the physical is no longer dominant) is singing, humming, vibrating in bliss.  You experience incredible healing as all of the energy gushes through your energetic form.  It is the doorway to Nirvikalpa Samadhi. 

Salvikalpa Samdhi is not just about witnessing the thoughts but that is how it begins.  As said above, Salvikalpa Samadhi is defined when your individual attachment and identification is broken.  So that there is no individual “you.”  There is no ego.  There is just consciousness experiencing whatever arises out of itself.  Completely unaffected by whatever arises and disappears. 

How you attain Savikalpa Samdhi is simple:    Become a witness to your thoughts.  Be so vigilant in your focus that when every thought arises, be a complete witness to that thought, do not touch it, do not get involved with it, keep your focus on being the witness.   This is not a mental experience and cannot be done with the mind.  These words can only point.  You have to practice it.  It is an advanced state of meditation.  It is effort while remaining effortless. 

Awareness is your very nature.   It is not an action that you do, awareness simply is.  But because you are so addicted to identifying with thoughts, there must be the intense focus to not get involved with the thoughts. 

In beginning meditation, there are so many thoughts and you are so used to being identified with the thoughts that you will not even understand what being a witness is.  So at first, a technique is needed, like watching your breath or asking “who am I?” 

The other part of meditation is to allow whatever sensation is here to be as it is.  This is how you begin in meditation, by accepting whatever is here, by allowing yourself to experience whatever is here in the moment.   If you really look in this moment, you will see you are constantly resisting being present.  Being present for more than a few seconds is intense, can often feel painful at times.  So a large part of meditation is experiencing yourself as you are in this moment, allowing yourself to feel whatever is here in the moment as sensation, without getting involved with it, without defining it, judging it or analysing it. Once you can accept and allow yourself to experience whatever is there, then you can move into witness consciousness.  If you try to be a witness before being able to accept your experience in the moment, it probably will be forced and only reinforce the ego. So if you are new to meditation, begin with a technique and practice allowing yourself to experience what is here.  This will be very peaceful in itself.  You will begin to experience yourself as being, as presence itself.   It is not “I am a person” but simply “I am”

Once established in being as presence in the moment, then you move into witness consciousness.  As you become a witness to your thoughts, by grace, Salvikalpa Samadhi simply happens.  You can go to the point of witnessing, and then it is consciousness itself that takes over and for the period of time in Samadhi, the ego is gone.
