Our task is not to be thinking. Our task is to be ‘thought.’

Go as far as you can see; when you get there, you will be able to see further.

That which cannot be understood can be known. To be known it must not be filtered by unknowingness, which is the mind. The mind accepts and rejects. What it rejects, you choose not to know. Let go of this acceptance and rejection mechanism. Rest without thought, and discover what is known.

Steady as the ocean’s depths, peaceful, serene; Among all seeming changes, swayed not at all. This is the mark of the Self. Focus yourself on depth. It is unchanging, even now. Don’t try to make it at the level of surface where changes can be swift and dramatic. Dive to find it. Sink. Settle into it. It is already and always there.

Join us in the Awakening Together Sanctuary on Sunday night, January 18 at 8pm ET for Satsang with Daniel Nahmod. The best way to introduce Daniel to you is through one of his incredibly powerful songs, so I will share one below. You can also get to know Daniel by visiting his website.
Daniel is a record producer, songwriter, and recording artist. He has performed his profound, heart-opening original music for over one million people in 45 U.S. states and Canada since beginning his music career in 1999… selling 100,000 CDs to date and receiving literally thousands of standing ovations along the way. His songs have been recorded by over 50 artists, and are performed all over the world on a weekly basis.
And now, here’s Daniel …
Realization of true Self is the only goal worth aiming for. Notice all other thoughts that say, “I must achieve this or that in order to be great.” Answer quietly and confidently each idea by saying, “I must know my Self. I need not achieve anything else.”

Do not forget that any form of specialness must be defended, and will be.

Nothing is more conducive to peace of mind than not having an opinion.
~ George Christoph Lichtenberg
Ask yourself, “What am I?” Continue to ask until you are certain of the answer. And then, let yourself be led from there. Let yourself live from there. Do not let yourself forget what you have discovered you are.
