ISHWARA-MASTER OF NOTHING KNOWN I MONK.

ISHWARA is LORD of this universe and master of nothing, issued out of
BRAHMAN as the begotten not made son of BRAHMAN.
ISHWARA is this universe and is all that appears within it. ISHWARA is the
sum total of ALL MOTION in this universe, no other things exists in this
relative universe other than ISHWARA.

ALL life all stars and planets all of humanity are all ISHWARA shaped and
formed and thereby presented into place and localized into what ever life
form it wants to experience.

Consciousness is ISHWARA, consciousness is a reflection of PURE AWARENESS
pure awareness like the eternal NOW is absolute motionlessness.
While consciousness reflection has motion and can be presented as a solid,
liquid, gas, or plasma as in stars.

ISHWARA dwells within and is the complete being as well. When we look
deeply within we will meet OUR-SELF which is ISHWARA

"I" MONK is about our being able to recognise that the consciousness of the
intangible ISHWARA that dwells within all of us here and now.

blessings michael.

ISHWARA Master of Nothing Known I MONK

BRAHMAN never moves from absolute motionlessness, issuing out of BRAHMAN
COMES the MOVER of ALL THINGS, which is ISHWARA, lord of this universe
and master of NO-THING.

THIS UNIVERSE IS the BODY-LESS Body of ISHWARA, the universe is within
the awesome embrace of ISHWARA, no other THING exists within this universe
other that that which "IS" ISHWARA.

Humanity is fully embraced within its AURA, and each one of us is "IT" and we
know it not. The Divine Charioteer, the RIDER of the WILL of BRAHMAN is
none other than ISHWARA, begotten not made son of BRAHMAN.

blessings michael.

Why not elaborate with direct experience of this recognition, Michael? That would be more helpful, in my opinion.

One of the key differences between Advaita Vedanta and Kashmir Shaivism or Tantra is that Vedanta points out the facts (in mind, intellectualisation) but Tantra shows us the path (in heart, realisation).

ISHWARA-MASTER-OF-NOTHING-KNOWN-I MONK

ISHWARA entered my life and experience way back in 1974 when I fell to the
floor is absolute despair, and lay prostrate there is abject fear, terror, felt that
my head was going to burst with thoughts shooting the rapids in my brain at warp speed. I had been given three months to live by my doctor, due to my
chronic alcohol addiction. I screamed out if there is a GOD then please help
me!

Then immediately a great weight came upon me, like gravity had increased
a thousand fold upon me, my bones were beginning to crack under this enormous pressure, then suddenly a mighty inner voice said to me "WHAT DO
YOU KNOW? I went to utter something about what i knew, when then the
force became unbearable, my skull seemed to be cracking under this infinite
pressure of gravity, I then screamed out "I KNOW NOTHING"! with that at once
the weight lifted, and this voice said EXACTLY my son, you know nothing
whatsoever. now get up and go to bed, and healing will begin.
to be continued
regards michael

ISHWARA MASTER OF nothing Known I MONK,

I came to understand that this great spirit who raised me from the dead was
the begotten son of BRAHMAN that of ISHWARA, ISHWARA became part of me
an inner mighty guru, who has guided me along a path of service for the past
50 years.

This great spirit helped me to obtain jobs where i could work with those
who were addicted to both drugs and alcohol, and i often visited prisons and
helped them out of prison to stay in the big farmhouse i worked at as manager
this work i did for over 30 years, also working in nursing with those with mental
health issues. I often worked 18 hour days, and ISHWARA always took away
my fatigue.

ISHWARA took me out of body to the placeless place before this universe was born aloft a thought wave from BRAHMAN, here I cried out "BEFORE THIS
UNIVERSE WAS BORN ""I AM"!!!

ISHWARA has been my constant companion for over 50 years, and I have
had mind blowing experiences with this gracious BEING. I have written over
ten thousand blogs on spiritual experiences over the years. All my blogs
are written by me, but the words of life come from the inner master.

ISHWARA has also introduced into my life and my wife life the mother of all
nature and to whose womb we all remain in until full and total realization
of the SELF, which is SHAKTI, She has often spoken to me and also helped
my wife through a major crisis, we have both been truly blessed.

I share all i have been given, in order to keep the SELF we need to give it away, sharing is caring, all I am given I then give away service is the
hallmark of reality in motion.

ISHWARA is consciousness, which is PURE AWARENESS in motion, this entire
universe rests within the bosom of ISHWARA. WE all embody its ESSENCE.

Humility is the language of the heart ,and not the head.

blessings michael,

ISHWARA MASTER OF NOTHING KNOWN. I MONK.

All life universally is in fact ISHWARA, no other THING EXISTS in this universe
except ISHWARA Master of nothing, knower of ALL,. Humanity all eight billion
of us are all ISHWARA and we know it not.

It is only when a vehicle begins to awaken, they they begin to sense an inner
presence, and if that being persists into questing within, he or she will hear that
inner small voice of their intuition, then they will appoint a reference to this
inner voice, some might call it their spirit guide, some may think it is their
soul speaking to them, and others may call this inner voice, Brahman, ALLAH.
JESUS CHRIST. JEHOVA, Great white spirit, Father God, it matters not what you call it, what matters is that you listen with an open heart.

"WE" are all "IT" and we know it not. When we finally realize we are "IT" we
then pass it onto our brothers and sisters who are open to this realization.

blessings michael

Thanks for sharing, Michael. Thank you, Bob, for the link to Swami Lakshmanjoo’s treatise.

The truth is one, manner of unfoldment varies, layered in a way we can accept ~ hence manifestations, telepathic communication, wisdom downloads and so forth.

Michael, my question is this: upon ego death and our seeing who we are, in a singularity, as identity-less living light, without attribute, in ineffable peace and feeling complete, with no urge to come or go or do anything, what is the trigger that causes descent into duality? Also, the challenge here seems to be to embody that awareness breath by breath through waking, dreaming and deep sleep states in an unbroken continuum.

My understanding is that we are as God (made in His image) but as a receptor, not a transmitter and secondly, awareness self-aware, pristine as it is, has no radical growth in its embryo like state of fulfilment and therefore we are here, in the world of contrast, to learn by overcoming adversity, to become love enabled by touch and imbibe bliss by benign friction, as polarities entwine within, in the kundalini energisation process. In fact, what is bliss but the assimilation of the ineffable peace of Self in singularity in this body, headed toward the actual integration of male (Shiva) and female (Shakti) aspects of the totality, represented as Ardhnarishwara?
