@ David ... alright! What is it you wish to truly know as of my direct experience? I’ll be more than happy to share. And more importantly ... what is it you wish to affirm as of your direct (fragmented thought dropped) experience?

Of course, it may be better to share this elsewhere since this thread is on Robert Adams ... incidentally, harmonious with Ramana, Ashtavakra Gita & Dattatreya at least.

“To acquire happiness, true happiness, unalloyed happiness, forever happiness — it is your true nature — you have to transcend the world. You have to become non-attached to this world. I'm not saying you have to give up anything. I am not saying you have to go live in a cave or live in a forest. You merely have to give up everything in your mind. And when you give up everything in your mind, then you have to give up your mind also. When you give up your mind, what is left? Pure awareness, consciousness, absolute reality, this is your true nature.”

“What you call space is Consciousness. It appears as no-thing to you because of your mind/body phenomena. If you actually were able to comprehend and see what you were immersed in, your body couldn't take it. All around you right now, in different di- mension, are all sorts of particles, radiations, electromagnetism and much more. But it doesn't affect you, because your body-mind is made that way. Yet you are not your body or your mind. You are pure consciousness. You are space. You are emptiness, nirvana. So what are you going to do about it? Cry? Get upset? Become affected by peoples words or actions?

There appears to be two different kinds of realization. One is when you transcend and you're still aware of yourself. You're separate from the universal, but you have transcended. The other one is when you have transcended the body so completely that you have become all-pervading, omnipresent. You have become the universe. There is no longer me and mine. You no longer believe I own this, and you don't. This is mine. You've become the universe and thoughts like mine and thine no longer enter your mind.”

1} it is not truly empty,

2} we know that because of our access to metaphysical-1, mind/intellect/conceptual abilities.

These people suggest going beyond the mind really have no idea that going beyond the mind just means being an animal that has less access to metaphysical-1, mind/intellect/concepts.

Heart{ motion/soul } and access to metaphysical-1, mind/intellect/concepts as they are ultimate complexity for a biologic animal.

All animals love their young yet some mother sows will eat their young.

All animals love their young and the only human animal has access to concepts of love etc.

I dont think 'beyond the mind' has any relevant meaning to most of humanity if any beyond a few select individuals who may not be able to convey to others what this means exactly/specifically with clarity. I dunno

“Become free. All you've got to do is give up your thoughts. Stop trying to analyze. Become totally still.
There is no one to search for. There is no place to go. There is absolutely nothing to do.”

“when I see you, I see my Self with a capital S. To me there are no others. Everything is the one Self. When I refer to myself, I'm referring to absolute reality and those of you who are ready, because of my saying the Self Is omnipresence, those of you who are ready are merged into the Self and also become that.”

“Every thing has been made for you. What I'm trying to say to you is you do not have to carry the load.

It's like when you go on a train and you have your suitcase in your hand. Do you sit with the suitcase on your head and carry the load? Or do you put the suitcase on the train in the compartment? You will still get to your destination. It's the same with life. You're going to your destination. Your destination is awakening, liberation. You do not have to carry the load. The load is desire. You want it very bad, and the more you want it, the more you're pushing it away, because a strong want, a strong desire, is a strong ego. It's not desire you want to develop, it's love, compassion, understanding. Let everything happen as it may. When the smoke clears, you will still be who you are, and you'll be totally free.”

“There is only one problem that affects everyone. And that is, you think. It's your thoughts that get you into trouble. You have an opinion on almost everything. If you would only learn to control your thoughts you would become absolutely free. Even now, while I'm talking to you, there are many thinking of something else. Your mind appears to have complete control over you. Now if your mind were real you would have a battle on your hands. But, since your mind doesn't even exist, you merely have to see the mind for what it really is, the Self. There is no mind. There are no thoughts. There is only the Self. All the scriptures of the world have tried to explain this. Be still and know that I am God. Focus you mind on God, and all will go well with you.”
