On Day 261<\/a>, I shared a story about the joy I felt when I recognized a fly on a toilet seat at a truck stop in New Mexico. I say \u201crecognized,\u201d because the joy didn\u2019t come from what the eyes saw or what the mind defined those images as. Joy came from natural recognition\u2014life-awareness recognizing life-awareness. It wasn\u2019t one recognizing another. It was one recognition\u2014Self-recognition<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s reading refers to \u201cthe seeing that recognizes the Christ.\u201d That seeing is the recognition I\u2019m referring to. It doesn\u2019t come from thinking metaphysical thoughts. It comes from a natural light in the mind that shines forth and sees only itself\u2014only light\u2026only life\u2026.only Self\u2014and there is no thought in it.<\/p>\n

I remember a conversation I had with some spiritual students around a dinner table one evening several years ago. Some felt that when we become enlightened, we suddenly know everything that can be intellectually known. They said the enlightened are Einstein-like in their knowledge, and they can tell the future, etcetera. It was a very grandiose idea of enlightenment.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s reading says:<\/p>\n

We know only that the truth is true, but in knowing this is all Knowledge given, for there is nothing else to know.<\/p>\n

In other words, the knowing that caused my heart to leap with joy when I saw the fly on the toilet seat is \u00a0<\/em>true knowledge. That recognition is the only knowledge that has any real value at all. That\u2019s why Ramana Maharshi used to ask people who had incredible book knowledge, \u201cBut do you know the Self?\u201d<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s reading also says:<\/p>\n

Seek only the truth and the truth will find you.<\/p>\n

That means that whenever you notice attention is not with truth, shift attention to truth. By keeping attention with reality\u2014with life-awareness\u2014you come to recognize life-awareness in all.<\/p>\n
