Miscommunication
Happy Chinese New Year to you too Thusness and to all of you.
Happy Chinese New Year to you, JonLS!
Here's a little story to make you smile:Older but Wiser
A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa taking her faithful aged poodle named Cuddles along for the company.
One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies and, before long, Cuddles discovers that he's lost.
Wandering about, he notices a leopard heading rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.
The old poodle thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in real deep doo-doo now!"
Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat. Just as the leopard is about to leap the old poodle exclaims loudly:
"Boy, that was one delicious leopard! I wonder if there are any more around here?"
Hearing this, the young leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees.
"Whew!", says the leopard, "That was close! That old poodle nearly had me!"
Meanwhile a monkey, who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the leopard. So off he goes but the old poodle sees him heading after the leopard with great speed and figures that something must be up. The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the leopard.
The young leopard is furious at being made a fool of and says:
"Here, monkey, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine!
Now, the old poodle sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and thinks, "What am I going to do now?", but, instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old poodle says.
"Where's that damn monkey? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!" -
So to all of you I would say, if you are seeking, it's that very seeking that is hiding the fact that you have arrived!!!
You have arrived because you never left.
As Tony Parsons says: "Liberation Is". -
If you are seeking, it is the seeking itself you should be looking at.
Are you totally identified with "seeking"?
Are you a "seeker"?
What would you be without "the search".
I could tell you to drop the search.
But I know you won't because you're much too busy seeking. -
Even the damn monkey told the leopard the truth, the leopard will still run away!Originally posted by JonLS:So to all of you I would say, if you are seeking, it's that very seeking that is hiding the fact that you have arrived!!!
You have arrived because you never left.
As Tony Parsons says: "Liberation Is".
Even the truth of non-seeking is told, the seeking continues without a seeker.
For both cases, the "Self/self' prevents the seeing. -

But I know you can't because you couldn't help it.
Before the arising of non-dual (anatta) insight, non-seeking is still seeking. -
Actually another way of saying let go of the search is to say surrender fully to what is right now.Originally posted by Thusness:Maybe changed it to:

Before the arising of non-dual (anatta) insight, non-seeking is still seeking.
Ego is a contraction, effort and reaction are more contractions.
To let go of ego, to move beyond it, involves full acceptance of what is.
Acceptance opens you up, it is very expansive.
Another word for acceptance is surrender.
Surrender the search.
Surrender your life.
